Chapter 291
When Olivia woke up, it was already morning the next day.
Daniel was staring at her. There was excitement in his eyes.
Olivia flinched. It was unlike her to feel shy. She hid under the blanket.
Daniel leaned over and kissed her on the forehead. He said excitedly. “Olivia, let’s go to the supermarket. It was Daniel’s dream all those years when Olivia was not by his side.
He wanted to hold Olivia’s hand and do what others usually did daily. He could not miss out on anything. They would start with shopping at the supermarket.
Olivia had not been to the supermarket for a long time. When she stepped foot into it, she was a little lost. After a while, she adapted to the environment and observed the various items in the supermarket with interest.
Daniel was behind her.
It was impossible to ignore a handsome man like Daniel pushing a shopping cart. He was already a view himself just by standing there.
A few middle–aged ladies were sneaking glances at Daniel now and then.
One husband finally got angry and snorted. “What are you looking at? Aren’t you embarrassed of yourself?”
The ladies no longer cared about how others opined them. They were not shy or afraid. They would look at whatever they wanted to look at. One lady even scolded her husband. “I’ve to see someone like
you daily for my entire life. Are you not even allowing me to look at handsome men?”
“What do you mean by that?”
“What do you think I mean?”
Olivia’s heart calmed down when she heard the light quarrel. It was nice to be amidst such a noisy yet heartwarming setting.
It felt good.
The two of them bought many things and queued up at the cashier.
Daniel frowned. “I forgot to buy something.”
“What?” Olivia looked up.
Daniel walked to the row of shelves beside the cashier.
Olivia took one look. Her face burned from embarrassment.
No matter where Daniel was, he always stood out. Just by standing there and not moving, he had already captured the attention of many people. There were already many ladies sneaking glances at him.
Now that he was standing in front of a shelf with rows of condoms, it made the young ladies blush and whisper to each other.
“Olivia.” He waved at Olivia. “Pick one.”
Olivia wished she could find a hole.
She wanted to disappear instantly.
As Olivia did not respond, Daniel could only choose it himself.
He looked at every brand and chose the most expensive one. He chose the largest one and took many boxes in one go.
“Too many.” Olivia was shocked.
“Is it?” Daniel frowned. “They’ll be used up soon.”

Upon hearing Daniel’s remarks, chnickles could be heard from the surroundings.
Some dry girls‘ faces turned red. They did not dare to look over.
After buying everything and paying the bill, Olivia was still concerned that Daniel had bought so many condoms. She said sarcastically, “Why didn’t you sweep up all the condoms from this brand?”
She remembered seeing that there were still a few boxes left on the shelf.
Daniel replied, “Don’t you know why I didn’t buy them all?”
Olivia looked up.
Daniel leaned over and kissed Olivia’s check. His tone was low and hoarse. It was as if he was about to misbehave. “Those are in small sizes. Don’t you know your husband best?”
Olivia could not stand him anymore and walked straight ahead.
Daniel followed behind with two large shopping bags in his hands. His distinguished aura was nothing short of outstanding.
Relying on his tall stature and long legs, Daniel quickly caught up. “Olivia.”
Olivia ignored him,
Daniel was very patient. “My love.”
Olivia’s cheeks gradually turned red.
Daniel continued, “My wife.”
Olivia’s eyelashes fluttered.
Daniel said, “Darling.”
Olivia could not take it anymore. She stopped and turned around, glaring at him fiercely.
Seeing Olivia’s response, Daniel sighed. “I didn’t expect you to like it. I’ll call you darling from now on. Oh, my darling.”
“Stop fooling around!” Olivia stomped her feet in anger.
For some reason, Daniel could easily provoke her emotions and make her agitated.
With Daniel, Olivia seemed to have lost her protective layer, revealing the emotions she had hidden in the depths of her heart.
Daniel lowered his head and kissed her. He said gently, “My darling, you don’t have to be the composed and powerful Olivia who protects everyone when you’re with me. Just relax and be yourself. Let me protect you.”
Olivia looked up at Daniel dazedly. Her wise–looking round eyes were glaring at him. She looked a little adorable.
“How cute.” Daniel kissed her eyelid. “That’s it. You can do whatever you want in front of me. I’ll protect you.”
Olivia was quiet when she was outside. After lunch, she immediately locked herself in the study and placed all the books Elena bought on the desk.
Secrets of Love.
The 36 Stratagems of Love.
Secret Manual of Women Conquering Males.
Teaching You How to Date.
Olivia’s eyes scanned through each book cover. Then, she held her chin and sighed. “So dating is also a skill.”
She began to reflect on herself.
Previously, her interactions with Daniel were too cold and emotionless. Her personality was also too domineering. She was used to solving problems on her own. That was not good as lovers helped and

supported each other. A deep relationship was only possible through give and take.

After reading about a dozen books, Olivia had already formed an idea. However, she knew she had to practice what she had learned, Reading alone would not help.
Hence, she called Kelly.
Kelly was stunned when Olivia shared her troubles.
She wanted to help Olivia, but she did not understand males too. She had also never been in a relationship.
She had only cared about one person throughout her eighteen years. That person was Olivia. However, her feelings were not in the romantic sense too. Kelly could not help Olivia. She had no relevant experience.
However, Kelly thought of a good idea. “Olivia, I can help you ask the girls participating in the show with me. They are all beautiful and have a lot of experience in terms of relationships. I can help you ask them.” Kelly interviewed the girls one by one. After gathering their responses, she summarized them for Olivia. Her first point was that men preferred women to rely on them. It gave them a sense of accomplishment; Olivia started to take notes.
Kelly continued with the advice she gathered. “Women have to ask men for help more often. This will bring out men’s protective instincts,”
Olivia understood.
Kelly shared some other advice. Olivia memorized them all. She even drew inferences from them. She was a quick learner.
Olivia applied what she learned at night.
Daniel brought up something when they were preparing for bed.
He had to spend some time overseas. There were many problems in the headquarters recently. The employees in the overseas branches were restless, so he had to go over to stabilize things.
“Since you’re the only one at home, take good care of yourself. Call me if anything happens.”
“If Brad finds trouble for you, stay away and have Andrew with you. I’ll deal with Brad when I come back.” Olivia’s eyes were calm. She knew very well she could deal with Brad herself. She did not even consider him her match.
She only needed to lift a finger to deal with someone like him.
However, she quickly remembered the love techniques she had learned earlier. She immediately leaned into Daniel’s arms and whispered, “I’m scared.”
Daniel’s heart softened after hearing what Olivia said.
He knew Olivia was forced to be tough on the outside. Her biological parents forced her. The responsibility of the Smith family was forced upon her, yet her family did not understand her. Gillian had also misunderstood and framed her.
Olivia had no choice but to arm herself and become stronger.
However, there was no need for that in the future.
With him around, he would protect her. Daniel was sure of that.
“Don’t be afraid.” Daniel lowered his head and kissed Olivia’s forehead. “I’ll arrange for more people to protect you.”
Before leaving the country, Daniel arranged for a team to protect Olivia.
When Brad found out that Daniel had arranged for protection, he could not help but snort coldly. “She is so weak. Daniel only went overseas, yet he arranged for many people to protect her. I think Daniel is the one who made her the head of the Smith family.”
Brad was convinced Olivia was weak and defenseless. He began to plot against her.
He was sure that it would be easy to deal with her. There was no need for him to plot meticulously.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
