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 thehouse 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 byAlbert?"

As Beatrix seemed to have vented her frustrations, she eventually regained composure and pressedon, "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? Rememberthose doctors we ousted before? Do you think she wanted to drive them away? Didn't we force them allout in the end?"

Beatrix said, "But this time, it's the person Albert brought back. They're true siblings, you know. Alicewill undoubtedly resist us to the bitter end. Today, I went to replace her in a fit of anger, but she refused tosee 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 intendsto 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 replace out."

Although perplexed, Beatrix followed his instructions. As the video's contents unfolded before her, hereyes 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 Idelved 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 hischeek. "Thanks, Dad!"

Lucian patted her head affectionately. "No need to fret. You are my most treasured daughter. I'll striveto secure the finest things in the world for you."

At that moment, a recollection stirred in her mind. However, before she could voice it, a hint of shynesscrept onto her face. "Dad, when you saw Olivia, did you happen to notice the man standing besideher?"

Lucian furrowed his brows as he retraced his thoughts. "Are you referring to the man who was holdingan umbrella for her earlier?"

Beatrix pondered for a moment, recalling that it was the bodyguards who had assisted them withumbrellas upon their return.

She shook her head. "Probably not. That tall, handsome man exudes a commanding aura, and he'sfrom Criecia."

Lucian interjected, "Isn't that the same guy who held the umbrella for her?"

Beatrix pondered for a while. Given the way the man doted on Olivia, it was also possible that he mighthave held an umbrella for her when they were outside.

"In that case, it's quite likely him. Dad, I like him."

Lucian frowned. "But I thought you were opposed to dating?"

Beatrix's eyes brimmed with happiness as she sweetly said, "Seeing him makes me want toreconsider."

His affectionate and attentive nature possessed an undeniable allure. Who wouldn't be swayed by suchcare?

Lucian raised his hand and patted her head. "Alright, if he's the man my precious daughter is fond of, Iwill 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 meetEugene and Olivia.

Her decision wasn't solely prompted by the positive impact of Olivia's treatment on Doreen but also bythe combined pressure from Beatrix and the Cabinet Consuls that left her with no choice but to meetthem.

In their country, Doreen was considered an invaluable asset. Her condition couldn't afford anysetbacks, even if her current state wasn't optimal.

However, no one wished for her condition to deteriorate, so before the treatment, the Consuls insistedon meeting the doctor responsible for her care. Given the circumstances, Alice had no solid grounds toobject.
