Daniel Marshall completely ignored Flora, and without any fear of her threats, he firmly headed toward the back kitchen.
A large restaurant like Greenview Villa would usually have huge cold storage rooms for stocking food materials. Daniel learned from his subordinates that they had not searched the cold storage area.
Moreover, they had searched all areas of the villa where people normally could be, but they hadn’t found Olivia Jenkins. Daniel suspected that Olivia might have been locked in the cold storage room by Flora.
Only those responsible for handling food would go there.
That was the most dangerous place in the entire villa. Hypothermia could surely lead to death.
As he drew closer to the cold storage room, Daniel faintly heard knocking sounds.
Instantly, Daniel ran over quickly, screaming loudly, “Olivia… Olivia…”
Even with two spare jackets on, staying in the cold storage for a long ti was nonetheless very uncomfortable and agitating. Olivia was barely enduring it. All of sudden, she heard Daniel’s voice.
Was Daniel really here?
Or was it rely a hallucination due to the cold effect?
Despite this difficulty, Olivia persistently stayed strong, continually knocking on the cold storage door.
From outside the cold storage room, Daniel could hear the knocking sound much clearly. Olivia must be inside, and she was still alive!
Daniel’s eyes subtly grew moist, and his heart fluttered excitedly like a fawn. His hands were shaking slightly with excitent. His handso face, initially worried, now lit up with joy, showing a faint smile of relief.
“Honey, I’m here to save you! Honey, are you okay? You hang in there, you will be out very soon.”
It really was Daniel’s voice. It didn’t seem like a hallucination. Although Olivia was shivering due to the freezing cold, and her face was frostbitten, she still struggled to put on a sincere smile.
She used all her strength, knocking harder on the door.
Mustering up her throat, Olivia barely let out a weak sound, “Dan… Daniel!”
Once the door was open, Daniel was the first to rush into the cold storage room. He saw Olivia first, held her tightly against his chest and carried her out of the cold storage room.
Daniel wished he could transfer all his body heat to the icy cold Olivia. He also wished he could instantly warm up Olivia, “Honey, the ambulance is already on standby at the villa, there are doctors here, you will be absolutely fine, you can believe .”
Gazing at Daniel in a daze, Olivia couldn’t stop shivering. She barely squeezed out a weak voice, “Hus… band…”
Before she could finish those words, her nose started to prickle. Suddenly tears welled up in her eyes.
If nobody had found her, Olivia was convinced she would have died. She had already given up hope.
It was beyond Olivia’s imagination that the one who saved her, the one who gave her a second chance at life, turned out to be Daniel.
She also failed to anticipate that when she was sinking into despair, the only person who surfaced in her mind was Daniel.
Daniel gently looked at Olivia and comforted her in a soft voice: “It’s okay now, it’s okay now, your husband is here with you, I will deal with those lowlifes for you.”
Olivia clutched Daniel’s clothes and buried her head in his chest, unable to stop the tears.
Her mind was a jumble of contradictory feelings. Disappointnt, sadness, deep pain but also inexplicable joy, they all tangled together.
Even if there were irreconcilable differences, even if she thought he despised her, she would have never imagined that Hannah Jenkins and her grandmother, knowing her kindness and filial piety, would collaborate with outsiders to plot her death.
This was more painful than being stabbed in the back by a stranger. Olivia could not let it go, hence her deep agony.
Upon seeing an ambulance arriving and Daniel holding Olivia, quickly making his way across, Flora impulsively ran downstairs like a mad woman..
