Chapter 1414 Strategies Unveiled
After hearing this, Beatrix immediately threw herself into the man’s arms and cried out in grievance, “Dad…”
Lucian held her tenderly, his hand gently soothing her head as he softly asked, “What happened?”
Tears welled up in Beatrix’s eyes as she recounted, “I was bullied by the doctor Albert brought to the house today.”
A subtle frown appeared on Lucian’s brow as he questioned, “You mean Olivia Maxwell?”
Beatrix was surprised. “Dad, how do you know her name?”
Guiding her to the couch, Lucian explained, “How could I not investigate someone brought back by Albert?”
As Beatrix seemed to have vented her frustrations, she eventually regained composure and pressed on, “So, have you discovered anything? I have a feeling Alice is shielding her this time.”
A disdainful smile appeared on Lucian’s lips. “She might be shielding her, but is it effective? Remember those doctors we ousted before? Do you think she wanted to drive them away? Didn’t we force them all out in the end?”
Beatrix said, “But this time, it’s the person Albert brought back. They’re true siblings, you know. Alice will undoubtedly resist us to the bitter end. Today, I went to find her in a fit of anger, but she refused to see me. Doesn’t that show she’s dead set on protecting her?’
Lucian let out a derisive snort. “In this world, solutions often outnumber difficulties. Even if she intends to safeguard her, it hinges on whether the Cabinet Consuls concur.” With those words, he handed her a flash drive.
Beatrix accepted it with surprise and inquired, “What’s this?”
Lucian replied, “Plug it in, and you’ll find out.”
Although perplexed, Beatrix followed his instructions. As the video’s contents unfolded before her, her eyes widened in disbelief.
“Dad, is that Olivia? How did you come across this?”
Lucian leisurely lit a cigarette and explained, “She seemed familiar to me when I saw her that day, so I delved deeper and stumbled upon this information. Surprisingly, she turned out to be an acquaintance. Tell me, are you still worried about not being able to drive her away?”
“Absolutely not,” Beatrix responded assuredly.
A surge of happiness enveloped her. She hugged Lucian’s neck and planted a grateful kiss on his cheek. “Thanks, Dad!”
His affectionate and attentive nature possessed an undeniable allure. Who wouldn’t be swayed by such care?
Lucian raised his hand and patted her head. “Alright, if he’s the man my precious daughter is fond of, I will help you make it happen!”
Beatrix said, “Great, it’s best if we can drive Olivia away or eliminate her while securing the man.”
Two days later.
Just as Albert had anticipated, Alice sent someone to pass on the message that she wanted to meet Eugene and Olivia.
Her decision wasn’t solely prompted by the positive impact of Olivia’s treatment on Doreen but also by the combined pressure from Beatrix and the Cabinet Consuls that left her with no choice but to meet them.
In their country, Doreen was considered an invaluable asset. Her condition couldn’t afford any setbacks, even if her current state wasn’t optimal.
However, no one wished for her condition to deteriorate, so before the treatment, the Consuls insisted on meeting the doctor responsible for her care. Given the circumstances, Alice had no solid grounds to object.
