Daniel Marshall and Olivia Jenkins duck for cover, while Simon Howard and other arriving bodyguards fight back valiantly.
Daniel and Olivia express their gratitude towards the helpful bystanders at the scene. After thanking them, they usher the bystanders to a safe location.
Simon confronts the crazed motorcycle rider wielding a large piece of wood.
After a few frenzied slashes, the rider’s knife gets stuck in the wood and cannot be removed.
The other bodyguards seize the opportunity to surround the rider. One distracts the rider by grabbing the iron rod in his hand, while the others restrain him collectively.
Simon removes the helmet, and the woman underneath, screaming and yelling like a maniac, turns out to be Mia Taylor.
The police and medical staff arrive. Simon hands Mia over to the authorities, formally stating that she is a violent mentally ill patient.
Meanwhile, the police also arrive at Ava Taylor’s residence to take her back for questioning.
Although Olivia is unharmed, her hand has been scratched by debris.
During the struggle, Olivia also suffers a few minor scrapes and scratches.
Seeing Olivia’s small injuries, Daniel feels a pang in his heart and holds her tightly.
Daniel is truly afraid of losing Olivia.
The corners of Olivia’s mouth twitch slightly to reveal a faint smile.
After a moment of hesitation, she also embraces Daniel.
“Honey, the car is broken!”
“As long as you’re okay, it doesn’t matter if the car is broken. We have other cars at home that you can drive, or you can buy a new one.”
Olivia hesitates to say something.
It’s not that Daniel doesn’t treat her well, it’s just that it feels like there’s an invisible, impassable trench between them.
If one asks nothing of love and doesn’t mind, it can be overlooked, and life can go on.
It’s all about the mindset; as long as you can let go, not be too calculative, and not take your own feelings too seriously, life can be accepted as it is.
Suddenly, Olivia pats Daniel on the back, signaling him not to hold her so tightly.
Nonetheless, Daniel continues to hold Olivia, his face close to hers, sensing her breath makes him feel at ease.
“Wife, let me hold you for a bit longer. I was really scared and worried about you before. You should sit out the rest of the trip and rest. I’ll help you clean your small wounds later.”
Daniel’s voice is low, alluring as a cello, which resonates in your heart. Olivia was intoxicated, feeling a bit overwhelmed.
Reflexively, Olivia nods, snuggling affectionately into Daniel’s embrace.
She didn’t have a clue how long such intimacy, such goodness would last. She figured she might as well enjoy the peace and sweetness as though she’s stepped into a fairytale.
At Shallow Bay Villa, Mrs. Jenkins sees Olivia in the news.
Out of resentment and without a second thought, vicious words spill from Mrs. Jenkins’s mouth, “Why has this damned woman not been killed? That’s such a pity! This damned woman surely deserved all this!”
Unable to bear it any longer, Leaf Fiona retorts harshly, “If our Madam were to have an accident, the Jenkins Group wouldn’t fall into your hands. Despite your age, you still haven’t learned how to be a decent human being. Even a dog can be loyal and protective of its owner, showing conscience, but you? I would be overstating even if I called you a donkey.”
Mrs. Jenkins glares at Leaf Fiona fiercely, not giving a reply.
Fiona does not stop there but continues to make fun of Mrs. Jenkins. “Whatever you reap, you shall sow, and a wicked person like you will eventually meet your end. The evil fruits that you’ve planted yourself, you shall eat. You just wait and see!”
“A dog can’t spit ivory out of its mouth, I’m not going to stoop to the level of a dog!”
With a cold huff, Mrs. Jenkins retires to her room, not even considering Fiona worth her time.
As Mia Taylor had a mental breakdown and was unable to aid in the investigation, the police only question Ava Taylor.
Daniel and Olivia are also at the police station, keeping tabs on the proceedings.
