Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde

Chapter 453

When Olivia arrived, everyone still dared to discuss her softly. Now that the Saintess deep gaze was on

them, everyone maintained their silence. Nobody dared to say a word. They tried their best to show

their best side.

The First Elder’s gaze changed. Despite being a seasoned person who knew how. to hide his

emotions, he was still shocked by the sudden change in their attitudes. It was too unexpected.

The other three elders‘ expressions became solemn as they looked at the faces below.

The Saintess’s appearance had caused a sensation.

She had cleverly used a mask to cover her unsightly face. Her presence was amplified with it. As soon

as she appeared, she intimidated those present.

It was a smart move.

It had only been slightly over a month since Berry had been chosen as the Saintess. Besides the

previous auction, she had never shown her face in front of anyone elsewhere. It led to many

speculations, fantasies, and expectations. The Saintess’s appearance had appealed to others fantasies

of her.

A flash of decisiveness flashed across the First Elder’s eyes. He had a ruthless. thought. He would not

let the Saintess win others‘ hearts.

“Everyone!” The First Elder stepped forward and said, “The Saintess came by here.

today to motivate us. She hopes that we can achieve good $1

Competition.”

in the Star

After hearing what the First Elder said, the people below were very touched, especially the young

people participating in the Star Competition. All of them were so excited that their faces turned red.

The First Elder looked at their reactions. His eyes turned dark as he continued, “In addition, the

Saintess has another matter to announce.”

Everyone was taken by surprise.

What could the announcement be?

Everyone could not help but feel curious. Eric, who was standing beside Edwin, poked the latter. Eric

asked in a surprised tone, “Edwin, do you know what it is?” Edwin frowned. “I don’t know.”

Eric curled his lips. “Stop pretending. The First Elder is your grandfather. How could you not know?

Edwin ignored Eric. He focused his gaze on the First Elder.

words had aroused the curiosity of the people below the First d dignity and said. The Saintess will lead

the Star Competition today

She will lead the contestants to participate in the Star Competition and obtain good results.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar.

Everyone thought it was a joke. The Saintess had not learned any voodoo before. There was no way

for her to be the leader. It was a crazy idea.

Although the Star Competition was not a life–and–death competition, there was still some danger. After

all, they were dealing with poisonous insects and snakes. If they were not careful, they would be

injured and poisoned.

A good leader would arrange for the team members to compete reasonably to minimize the casualties

of the team members.

Everyone was doubtful that the Saintess was capable of doing that.

The young people participating in the Star Competition were not just the descendants of the four

elders. Most of them were ordinary people. All of them had their own families. Their families treasured

them. They were not here to keep the Saintess entertained.

There were signs of resistance as the participants were unsure of their safety. They would not allow the

Saintess to be the leader.

Seeing everyone’s reaction, the First Elder was satisfied. There was a faint smile on his lips.

Eric had been in the mood to joke with Edwin earlier. When he heard that the Saintess was the leader,

his eyes widened in shock. “Edwin, aren’t you the leader? What’s wrong with the Saintess? She’s only

been the Saintess for a month. She doesn’t even know anything about poison, let alone voodoo

worms.”

It must be a joke. One that could endanger others‘ lives.

Edwin was also a little surprised. He did not understand why his grandfather had changed his mind.

At that moment, someone beside him said, “I heard that the Saintess is domineering. She could easily

turn the kitchen upside down with a meal request. She probably requested to be the leader herself.”

“This is too much!” The contestants who were participating in the Star Competition were upset. All of

them were complaining.

Olivia remained in her seat. She quietly watched the reactions of the people

below.

Dakota glanced at her and deliberately said, “Look, the First Elder thinks highly of you. He wants you to

be the leader.”

Olivia turned around and glanced at Dakota indifferently without saying

Anything

Olivia was not expecting things to turn complicated. She had just leared of the

Competition. Moreover, the First Elder had never told her anything about

her leading the competition.

When the First Elder previously punished Ashley severely and arranged for the kitchen to take care of

her diet, Olivia did not take it seriously. She did not think much about it.

However, the First Elder’s abnormal behavior had made things clear to her.

He was making things difficult for her. He had put up the pretense of respecting her. In reality, he had

wanted her publicly shamed.

Thinking of that, Olivia’s lips curled up slightly. Her expression remained proud and confident.

His intentions were obvious. He wanted Olivia to have a downfall by inflating her arrogance and pride.

However, she would never allow that.

She believed that she was worthy of any praise bestowed on her.

The First Elder pretended to be in a difficult position. He came over to Olivia. “Look, everyone doesn’t

agree with you being the leader. What should we do?” After saying that, he looked up and gave Dakota

a look.

Dakota immediately added fuel to the fire, “This is too much. They’re too much. How can they treat the

Saintess like that? You should insist on being the leader and ignore these stupid people. You’re the

Saintess. You’re superior. No one can doubt you.”

Dakota had said those words on purpose. She wanted to cause conflict between the Saintess and the

others.

Olivia narrowed her pretty eyes. She did not respond to Dakota.

Dakota’s eyes dimmed. She secretly glanced at the First Elder. She was worried. that the Saintess

would figure out her real intentions.

After spending some time with the Saintess, Dakota realized that the Saintess wast not stupid. She

could not just flatter her brainlessly. She had to use her mind.

Dakota realized that she had failed to make the Saintess angry. Although she was a little disappointed,

she understood that she had to practice restraint if she did not want to arouse suspicion.

Dakota quickly said, “Does the Saintess not want to be the leader anymore? If you don’t want to be the

leader, the First Elder will announce to them…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Olivia raised her hand to stop her. “Who said I don’t want to be

the leader? As the Saintess, I can be the leader if I want to. If

I don’t want to be the leader, it’s also because I don’t want to. It can’t be that the people don’t allow it.

No one can stop me.

After saying that she flung her cloak and stood up abruptly. She snatched the

crophone from the Firat Elder before questioning loudly, Who said I’m not

of being the leader? Step forward

Everyone was shocked.

The First Elder and Dakota were stunned. The Saintess was too arrogant. It was beyond their

expectations. There was no need for them to provoke her at all. She could upset people with her

attitude alone.

Everyone was silent as they looked at Olivia in shock. They did not expect her to stand up and insist on

being the leader. For a moment, they were stunned and did not know what to say.

Seeing everyone’s reactions, Olivia raised her eyebrows and said with a sharp gaze, “I’m standing here

today. Whoever is dissatisfied can come up and challenge me.” A bold young man shouted, “What kind

of challenge? Anything?”

Olivia looked calm and relaxed. However, there was no hiding the arrogance in her tone. “Anything. Up

to you.”
