He leaned closer to her, almost collapsing into her space, his forehead brushing against her shoulder before he tilted his head toward her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not okay,\" he muttered, his voice soft and slightly hoarse, as if he had been holding something back. \"I need comfort.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for a response, he nuzzled lightly against her, his cheek rubbing against her skin in an almost shamelessly affectionate manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jacqueline froze for a fraction of a second before a small, helpless smile appeared on her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around them, a few people exchanged glances before soft laughter broke out. The atmosphere, which had been tense just moments ago, loosened as if someone had cut an invisible thread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He’s done for now,’ they thought silently. ’With Jacqueline here, she’s definitely going to misunderstand him and punish him later.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Theodore, as always, was far from careless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within a few carefully chosen gestures and soft murmurs, he managed to shift Jacqueline’s attention completely, guiding her thoughts away from anything suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jacqueline, now calmer, turned her gaze toward Bunny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So,\" she said coldly, her voice carrying a sharp edge, \"are you leaving on your own... or do you want to be thrown out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bunny’s throat tightened. She lowered her gaze, her hands clenching slightly before she gave a small nod and began to walk away, her steps slow and reluctant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora watched her leave, her eyes narrowing slightly before she followed behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bunny stopped near the roadside, her shoulders tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora stepped beside her, her expression no longer playful but serious, almost piercing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you know what’s good for you,\" Aurora said, her tone firm and unyielding, \"you should stop following that ridiculous plotline.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bunny turned sharply, her eyes filled with confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How do you know?\" she asked, her voice trembling slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora crossed her arms, her gaze steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because it had happened to me and It’s nothing more than a scam,\" she said bluntly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bunny’s pupils shrank. \"A... scam?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Aurora replied without hesitation. \"Someone implanted a chip in your mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, everything went silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’A chip... in my mind?’ Bunny repeated internally, her thoughts spiraling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora continued, her voice calm but authoritative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have far more potential than you think. The only reason Theodore has been able to achieve so much is because he removed the chip in his mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bunny frowned deeply, shaking her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A chip? What chip are you even talking about?\" she demanded, though uncertainty had already begun to creep into her voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora let out a soft chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You might not realize it,\" she said, \"but that so-called system you’re synced with... it’s because of that chip.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then began to explain, detailing how the chip influenced thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time Aurora finished, Bunny’s resistance had crumbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...If what you’re saying is true,\" Bunny whispered, her voice barely audible, \"then I... I want it removed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora’s lips curved into a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, Bunny returned. The process was quick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she walked out, the difference was immediate. Her steps felt lighter, her breathing deeper, as if an invisible weight had been lifted off her chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I... can think clearly,’ she realized, her eyes widening slightly. ’Everything feels... mine again.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a distance, Aurora watched her leave. In her hand, she held another chip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She chuckled softly, her eyes gleaming with interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now,\" she murmured, \"I can research to my heart’s content.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And without wasting another moment, she turned away, already immersing herself in her work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elsewhere, someone else was dealing with an entirely different kind of chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia. She had gone to meet Louis’s parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Louis had insisted, almost stubbornly, \"Since we’re already together, we’re bound to end up together anyway. So why not meet them now and get everything sorted?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia had hesitated at first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She longed for a stable and warm relationship, something she had always quietly desired. After much thought, she finally agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she arrived, both of Louis’s parents were already there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked nothing like what she had imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of distant or reserved expressions, they wore wide smiles, their faces practically glowing with enthusiasm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason was simple. Olivia’s assets had already surpassed theirs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That knowledge had quietly stirred greed within them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Someone must have wanted us to see this,’ Louis’s father had thought earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, seeing Olivia in person, their smiles only deepened. A hint of regret also lingered in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’We shouldn’t have treated her like that before...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Louis’s father, despite having cut off contact in the past, now found himself wanting his son to return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not out of love. But out of benefit. He knew exactly how valuable Louis was to his business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And today, he had brought someone else along. His younger brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Louis’s uncle. Angie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Angie stood out immediately. There was something about him... something dark... that made people instinctively wary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One glance at him was enough to tell that he was not someone to be taken lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment his eyes landed on Olivia, however, his expression shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He froze. A flicker of fascination passed through his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She’s... stunning,’ he thought, a faint smirk almost forming before he suppressed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, he even considered asking for her number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he held himself back, choosing instead to sit quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia, completely unaware of the gaze lingering on her, focused entirely on making a good impression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Louis had told her, \"Their opinion doesn’t matter,\" she still wanted things to be smooth in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I don’t want to stand between him and his family someday,’ she thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they sat together, Louis’s father leaned forward eagerly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard you paint,\" he said, his tone filled with interest. \"Could you show us some of your work?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia nodded and pulled out her phone, showing one of her most detailed paintings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Angie leaned in slightly, his eyes narrowing with interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, unexpectedly, he began asking questions... deep ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What inspired this composition?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why did you choose this color contrast?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What emotion were you trying to capture here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His questions were sharp, insightful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia blinked in surprise. ’He’s... not ordinary,’ she realized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she found out that Angie was also a painter, and that his perspective carried unusual depth, she became genuinely engaged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She began asking him questions in return, her curiosity evident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Angie responded generously, his voice calm, his explanations layered with meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their conversation flowed naturally. Too naturally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the side, Louis watched, his lips slowly forming a pout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before, he wasn’t even that interested in painting,\" Louis muttered, his tone slightly annoyed. \"It’s only after his accident that he suddenly became like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia turned toward Angie, curiosity flickering in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An accident?\" she asked. \"When did that happen?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Angie waved his hand dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, nothing serious,\" he said lightly. \"Just a month or two ago.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia nodded thoughtfully. A brief silence followed before she glanced at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression changed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m sorry,\" she said, standing up gently. \"I’m running a bit late. I should leave now since the meeting is over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before anyone else could respond, Louis’s father quickly stood up, his expression turning almost alarmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leave?\" he said, his voice rising slightly. \"How can we let you go without even having a proper dinner here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia waved her hand lightly, her movements casual yet polite, as a faint smile played on her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s alright,\" she said, her tone warm but firm. \"I already ate before coming here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused for a second, her eyes softening as a playful expression crept onto her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And besides,\" she continued, a teasing lilt entering her voice, \"if I don’t eat what my mom cooks later, she’ll definitely beat me up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stuck out her tongue slightly, mimicking a childish fear, her shoulders lifting in mock dread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Louis pushed his chair back and stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll drop you,\" he said, his tone leaving no room for refusal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost at the same time, Angie rose from his seat as well, brushing his sleeve casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have some work too,\" he said smoothly. \"I’ll join you on the way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, Louis’s parents exchanged glances, a silent conversation passing between them, but neither of them spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Louis’s mother forced a small smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Angie, you can take another car,\" she said, her voice gentle but pointed. \"It’s not like you’re lacking options.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Louis didn’t even bother hiding his displeasure. He let out a small huff and crossed his arms slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to spend time with my girlfriend,\" he said, sounding almost like a spoiled child.\u003C\u002Fp>",1507,"2026-06-06T04:03:52.406Z",1,"novelbin.me","296eb51797a1c1b928cc2e7eb83da56d971c8421f3b90067bc4a36f5ef75e889","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-351","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-599",614,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fborn-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-cover.jpg"]
