It was already midnight when Olivia stepped out of the laboratory. Despite her good physical condition, she had been staying up for several days and was starting to feel the strain. Dark circles were visible under her eyes. Her lips were dry and cracked, and she looked like a dried vegetable that had lost all its moisture, desiccated and withered. Fortunately, her natural attributes, such as her body shape and bone structure, were all standard features of a stunning beauty. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to endure such a relentless routine of sleeplessness and hard work.
At noon, Liam gave her a call, asking her to come back home when she had some free time.
Initially, she planned on going back after finishing the experiment today. However, it was already too late at this point.
"Forget it! I'll go back tomorrow morning," she said inwardly.
While walking outside, she bumped into a senior student from the same advisor.
Seeing Olivia, the senior student hurriedly approached her and asked, "Hey, Olivia, are you planning on doing an early pursuit of your Ph.D.?"
Olivia nodded and said, "Yeah, it's already been decided."
"Who is your supervisor?" When Olivia announced her early enrollment. for her Ph.D., the senior student felt a bit envious. Ever since Olivia entered the college, she had been an all-star, outshining all the other top students before her. She only spent two years on her undergraduate degree and two years on her master's degree, and now, at the age of 23, she was about to start her Ph.D. studies. "Professor Owen."
"Professor Owen?" The senior student exclaimed, "Do you mean Professor Lewis Owen?"
Olivia nodded in agreement.
"Oh my goodness, impressive!" exclaimed the senior student. Professor Lewis Owen was a renowned figure in their field of research, greatly respected both domestically and internationally.

The senior student wanted to inquire more about Professor Owen, but Olivia had already spotted Amelia waiting at the campus gate.
She paused her steps for a moment and said to the senior student, "Excuse me. Someone is coming to pick me up. I'll take my leave." After speaking, she quickened her pace and walked toward Amelia. Amelia was standing next to the car, staring absentmindedly at the campus entrance. When Olivia approached her, she greeted Olivia with a tender smile and said, "Olivia, I didn't even know that you are so capable. You're actually a graduate student at Ember University. I heard from your grandfather that you scored 1500 on the SAT."
"Is a score of 1500 considered capable?" said Olivia inwardly.
Following Amelia's gaze, Olivia casually glanced at the gate behind her and wondered, "If Amelia knew that I had been admitted by the Royal Medical College with a score of 1580 on my first SAT, would she think I'm even more capable?"
On the way back, Amelia mentioned Linda to Olivia. "Olivia, since you haven't been exposed to the etiquette of high society, you probably need help understanding these things. To help you feel at ease during the banquet, I have arranged for an etiquette teacher named Linda Foster. She is excellent and one of the best teachers in this field."
"Thank you," Olivia said in a calm tone, her expression remaining unchanged.
Without feeling embarrassed for not having the etiquette of the nobility nor feeling excited about entering high society soon, she displayed a calm and collected demeanor as if it were an ordinary matter. Upon seeing this, Amelia was greatly surprised.
Throughout, she had always believed that her daughter, who went missing for 18 years, would live in hardship, unable to sustain three meals a day or receive a good education and lacking the elegant and graceful temperament of a fine lady.

Upon returning to the Taylor family, Olivia quickly washed up before going to bed.
Having missed several nights of sleep, she decided to make up for it properly.
After a sound sleep, Olivia woke up when the sun was already high in the sky, close to noon. She got up, quickly freshened up, and went downstairs to the dining room.
"Miss Olivia, what would you like to have, exotic or traditional cuisine?" The servants had been preparing her meals while she was still in bed As a prestigious family like the Taylor family, the servants were good-mannered, reaching a five-star standard. They were not like the portrayal in novels or TV dramas, where they were often depicted as either overly respectful toward the rich or disrespectful toward the
poor.
They were all just working to make a living. Nobody cared if Olivia was the real or fake daughter.

lady from the prestigious Taylor family, she fell short in maintaining grace and elegance, lacking the necessary aura and grandeur.
In other words, she lacked the sufficient aura of a noble lady,
So, all along, Emma had never opted for a delicate style but instead had taken the style of being knowledgeable and reasonable.
Although this style lacked a strong presence, it was suitable for a virtuous wife, making her an ideal marriage partner for wealthy families.
"Olivia, haven't you had breakfast yet?" Emma came out with a plate of beautiful cakes. "Try the dessert I made."
She came over this time with the intention of reconciling with Olivia, She had already prepared herself to be troubled, treated coldly, and event insulted.
"No matter how Olivia treated me, I must reconcile with her as soon as possible.
"Because William Taylor, the eldest son of the Taylor family, was about to return," said Emma inwardly.
Emma had been in the Taylor family for over 10 years. She had managed to please both Samuel and Amelia and had a strong bond with David, However, she had been unable to gain the favor of William. William was the eldest son of the Taylor family and possessed exceptional abilities. Liam personally trained and groomed him as the successor to manage the family business. He held most of the responsibilities for the Taylor family's business operations.
He also had the largest shareholding, even more than Samuel and Liam.
Emma was not greedy. She did not have too many ambitions for the Taylor family's estate. She just wanted her rightful share. However, she was dead set on getting her hands on the Green family's shares owned by Amelia.
"Otherwise, I have been acting cute and foolish all these years, putting all my effort into pleasing Amelia. Wouldn't it be a waste of my effort?" she said inwardly.
But Amelia only had the right to receive dividends for the shares of the Green family in her hands and no right to transfer them to others. To give the shares of the Green family to Emma, Amelia must obtain the consent of the people from the Green family,
The key to whether the Green family agreed or not was William.

Under normal circumstances, the Green family would not interfere with Amelia's business. She was left free as long as she didn't give her shares to the competitors. However, if William disagreed, the Green family would definitely respect his choice.
Therefore, it was imperative for Emma to please William. Even if she couldn't win his favor, she must ensure that William would not develop any aversion toward her.
