    Chapter 393


    Soon, the door swung open. Olivia tightly grasped the hem of her sleeves.


    There was a switch between Olivia and Leia’s positions.


    Olivia had found out that Leia was the mastermind, but Leia was clueless about Olivia’s


    presence.


    Now that they were going to meet up in person, Olivia couldn’t help but feel nervous.

    A woman in a white dress entered the room. She was tall and skinny.


    She was wearing a mask, but her exposed skin was as fair as snow.


    The sheer look of her figure alone was enough for others to guess how gorgeous the face under


    that mask was.


    Judging from how she was walking like a normal person, it seemed like she had been pretending to be


    a janitor who had a problem with her legs.


    She had even darkened her face to avoid grabbing unwanted attention.


    The breeze fluttered the hem of her dress, giving off the impression that she was a gentle and


    kind woman.


    Begonia stopped three meters away from Avery. Her voice was hoarse when she said, “Mr. Y, I heard


    that you were looking for me.


    It must be her original voice, which was different from before. It wasn’t that mellifluous. It sounded as


    though her vocal cords had been injured before.


    Avery crossed his legs while turning his green chrysoberyl ring, exuding a cold, dominant air.


    His gaze swept across Ryan and Jennifer. “Get out.”


    They were obviously slightly concerned about it, but they didn’t dare to cross the line in front of Avery.


    Left with no choice, they walked out of the room.


    Now that there were only three of them in the room, Olivia tried her best to suppress her


    emotions.


    She remembered what Avery had said. Today, she was here only to confirm Leia’s identity.


    Knowing how vignt Leia was, Olivia intentionally hushed her breath.


    Leia, who was standing straight, didn’t show any signs of fear despite being the only Toxic


    Hive member in the room.


    Avery rose from his seat and approached her.


    He stood before her and rested his hands behind him, staring at Leia coldly. “How have you been all


    these years?”


    She hung her head low, so no one could read her expression. “Thanks to you, Madam has been


    treating me well. I will never forget what you did to save me.”


    Olivia’s eyes widened as she realized that they knew each other.


    Furthermore, Leia was treating Avery with respect.


    “I remember that you left when you were 11 years old,” he recounted.


    “Yes.”


    He held up one of his hands before his chest. “You were this tall back then.”


    Leia curled her fingers to ball a fist. She uttered through her gritted teeth, “Yes.”


    “You’ve grown a lot taller, but you’re as skinny as you were before.” He reached out for her mask,


    intending to take it off.


    Leia reflexively moved to hold her mask, but in the end, she didn’t stop him.


    Olivia was well aware that Toxic Hive members wouldn’t remove their masks unless the other


    party was a close acquaintance.


    That was a mere knee-jerk reaction against Avery’s action. When Leia got herself together, she didn’t


    stop him.


    Avery pulled the mask to the back of her head. Leia could just about smell his faint body scent.


    Her heart was racing.


    Meanwhile, Olivia found it strange how such a daring woman could be this meek.


    When Leia’s mask was slowly taken off, her hair covered half of her face.


    A nervous Olivia gulped.


    Avery raised Leia’s chin, saying, “Long time, no see, little kid.”


    Olivia was stunned the moment she saw Leia’s face.
