Chapter 516: Chapter 516: A New Task for Daniel Marshall
Olivia Jenkins stared indifferently at Daniel Marshall, a picture of icy detachment.
Suddenly, Daniel displayed his hands for Olivia to see.
Upon seeing the injuries on Daniel’s hands, which had turned purple from the cold, Olivia felt an involuntary pang in her heart.
Silent, she shot him a glance before proceeding to gently wash his hands.
Late, Olivia used antiseptic to clean Daniel’s wounds and even applied medicine to them.
Daniel, his eyes dark as ink, harboured a faint warm smile—a gentle voice slowly resonated, “Wifey, you really treat me well!”
Olivia looked at Daniel, and in an instant, her lips were claimed by his.
When Benjamin Johnson came over to ask Olivia to eat, he was met with this surprising sight. The words that had already climbed to his throat, were swallowed back in an instant.
Seconds later, Benjamin walked away, his mood crestfallen.
Benjamin could sense that even if Olivia was giving Daniel the cold shoulder, she wasn’t truly indifferent towards him.
It seemed that Olivia didn’t care about Daniel, but Daniel’s small tricks had caught Olivia in his trap.
Olivia, being so clever, would not have failed to see Daniel’s cunning. She was only lowering her guard.
That also meant, even if they were displeased with each other, it wasn’t enough for Olivia to give up being Mrs. Marshall. She would reconcile with Daniel.
At this moment, Benjamin also felt redundant.
The others had already started eating hotpot, making the hall very lively.
The rising steam made the hall feel very warm.
Benjamin sat with David Jefferson, facing away from Olivia’s table.
Having spent two days with the program staff, Benjamin had become familiar with them and could engage in jovial conversations.
The commissioner from the Marshall Corporation Charity Foundation hadn’t left yet. Spotting Daniel, they promptly rose to greet him, but Daniel immediately stopped them, “Let’s skip the formalities; everyone, continue eating.”
One of the commissioners said, “Chief Daniel Marshall, we’ve prepared a detailed plan. We’ll send it to you for review later.”
Daniel gave a slight nod, “Alright!”
Despite remaining silent, Olivia placed the grilled beef into Daniel’s bowl.
She also scooped some cooked chicken for Daniel.
Simon Howard suddenly broke the silence at the table, “This chicken is really delicious, the meat is tender, not at all fishy, and has a particularly fresh texture.”
Olivia also took a bite of the chicken and then said, “Free-range chicken from the country, of course, tastes good. No feed additives, just grains and vegetable leaves, and occasionally some leftover food.
I bought twenty chickens and twenty ducks from the village. Starting tomorrow, you will be responsible for feeding them. Also, old Wang from the village hurt his waist. I proposed to help him. You will start feeding his pigs from tomorrow.”
Simon was stunned as he looked at Olivia unbelievingly, “Do you want Daniel and me to feed the chickens, ducks, and pigs?”
Olivia raised an eyebrow, her expression serious, and in a cool voice slowly stated, “Yes, and moreover, you have to prepare the pig feed yourself. Prepare yourselves as I plan to film a special episode for you, which will be broadcast in the bloopers section.”
Simon blinked disbelievingly at his boss.
The boss’s precious hands, usually used just for signing contracts, how could they be used in such a way!
Feed pigs?
Oh my God, Simon never envisioned such a thing!
This is not something a billionaire CEO should be doing. Olivia really went too far.
To increase ratings, there have to be some boundaries!
Olivia was truly despicable!
Seeing that Simon had objections, Olivia locked onto Daniel with a sharp gaze, and questioned, “Do you have a problem with me?”
