"Forget it. There's no point in arguing with someone like her."Hera was causing trouble on purpose. If she could not solve the problem at the source, the problem would only grow bigger as they argued about it.She did not want it to affect Lyla. That was why she put up with it."Forget about it. Let's eat first. When we're done, you can help me pick out a dress and think about the dishes, okay?""Okay, no problem."...Kate was going to confess to Ken in two days.She got up in the morning and pestered Olivia and Mrs. Simmons to teach her how to cook before sneaking off to Ken's villa to decorate.Just as everything was ready, she suddenly remembered that the scarf she knitted for Ken was still in the hospital. She could only take a taxi to retrieve it.She hurried toward the ward as soon as she reached the hospital's top floor. When she passed by Fred's ward, she suddenly heard a man snap, "If you refuse to do it, I'll expose that secret to the public."'Secret?'Whose sec
Olivia was baking a cake with Mrs. Simmons when she got the call from the hospital.They planned to help Kate make a beautiful cake to confess with. It was already covered in a layer of cream."What?"Olivia's hand trembled as she accidentally pushed the cake to the floor and smashed it with a thud."How did this... I... I'll be right over."After hanging up, she looked down at the shapeless cake and felt her heart sink.Not knowing what had happened, Mrs. Simmons crouched down to clean up. "Miss, it's okay. We still have time. We can make another one.""No."Her voice trembled despite her best efforts."What's the matter? Is Mr. Lucas unavailable?"Olivia clenched her hands as she suppressed her emotions. "Yeah, something happened to Kate. I'm going out. Help me clean up and remember to pick up Lyla and Sam.""Sure, no problem."Olivia sped off to the hospital without changing her clothes after explaining.By the time she got to the emergency room, Ken was already at the
They both fell silent. As time ticked by, the emergency room’s red light remained on, and the temperature in the hallway began to cool.Olivia folded her arms, her nerves tense.'Why isn't she out yet?'"Liv?"Olivia's heart gave a jolt when she heard someone call her suddenly. She glanced at the emergency room to see that it was still closed. Then, she turned around to look across the corridor.Seeing Fred limping over on his crutch, she hastened to help him."What are you doing here?""I heard something happened to Ms. Lucas, so I came to check it out. I didn't realize you were here too, Liv."Fred looked ahead and asked, "How is Ms. Lucas?"Olivia helped him sit down and shook her head. "I don't know. She's not out yet."As soon as she finished speaking, the emergency room door opened.The doctor came straight over. "It's not life-threatening for now, but she has a head injury that will require observation. And if she doesn't wake up in 72 hours, I'm afraid..."He looked
After sending Fred back, Olivia went to the ICU.She saw from afar Ken standing in front of the glass window with his hands in his pockets, looking sad."Go home. I'll stay.""Wait a minute."Ken suddenly gave a self-deprecating smile. "It's funny that I was lecturing about her being reckless earlier. Now that I know she may never wake up, I suddenly think I'd rather have her causing trouble than staying still."As he spoke, he suddenly turned his head and looked at her with dim eyes. "Liv, what do you think I should tell my aunt and uncle if she never wakes up?"Olivia walked over, patted him on the back, and looked at Kate through the glass window. "She'll wake up."Ken threw his head back, flipped his hair back, and turned away, afraid to look inside. "Let me know when she wakes up.""Yeah, I will.""Look after her for me these few days."Olivia was stunned. "Are you not going to visit her anymore?"Ken shook his head and headed the other way.Looking at his back, Olivia
"Huh?"Fred forced a chuckle. "Liv, what are you thinking? I only visited her because she's your friend.""Oh? Really? Why do I think you care about her?""Really."Olivia put the vase away and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter if you like her. You're an adult, and it's about time you thought about it. I'd like to see you get married.""Lyla and I have been holding you back for years. It's time to be yourself and get a girlfriend or something."Fred felt increasingly guilty as he listened. His right hand pinched the flesh of his thigh, almost telling the truth several times.Just then, Kate in bed suddenly opened her eyes."Liv.""What's the matter?""She... seems to be awake!""Awake?"Olivia rushed over, delighted to see Kate staring at her with wide eyes. She quickly rang the bell to alert the doctor and helped her adjust the bed upward."Kate, you're finally awake. Do you know...""Who are you?"Olivia stiffened, looked up at her in shock, and pointed at herself.
By the time Ken arrived, Olivia and Kate had been sitting opposite each other in the hospital room for an hour.One felt they did not know the other well and had nothing to say.One knew the other had amnesia and was afraid of saying the wrong thing and thus triggering her, so she was scared to say anything.As soon as Ken walked in the door, both exhaled as if they were relieved."Ken.""Ken!"Ken already knew about Kate's memory loss, so he did not ask any questions.He went to the bedside to ask her for details, but Kate suddenly jumped up and hugged him around the waist, grumbling flirtatiously, "Ken, how could you leave me here alone? I was almost scared to death when I woke up just now."Ken was shocked by the sudden hug. He stared at Olivia in disbelief.Olivia was also shocked. She could only shake her head at him to show she had no idea what was going on.Ken stiffened and pushed her outward. "Lie down first.""No! It's been so long since we met. What's wrong with h
A week flew by just like that.Ken often found time to keep Kate company.Every time he went, Kate beamed and acted cute with him.Although Ken kept a straight face and said nothing, Olivia could tell his tone had softened considerably from his occasional remarks.Therefore, she often wondered if this was a blessing in disguise.She went to visit Kate and saw a familiar figure as soon as she entered the hospital lobby.'Oh, no! What a small world!'To avoid what had happened before, she quickened her pace and tried to walk straight up the stairs to avoid the person, but she heard a voice behind her after taking only two steps."Fancy running into you in the hospital, Phoebe. What a coincidence."With that said, the woman had already walked up to her. "You're not following me, are you?"Before Olivia could speak, Hera laughed and said, "Oh, I forgot the woman who helped you get justice last time got into a car accident and is hospitalized, right?"With that said, she said wit
Hera was scared by her laugh and took a step back."Phoebe, don't think you can drive a wedge between Johnny and me and swoop in. I won't give you the chance."Seeing that she was being stubborn, Olivia did not bother to talk more. She shook her head and left. "Forget it. Talking to you about this is casting pearls before swine."However, Hera would not let her go. She reached out and grabbed her. "You're not leaving until you make it clear today!""What else is there to say?""I want you to swear you'll never see Johnny again!"Olivia found her annoying and shook her hand away. "Hera, I don't have time for your madness!"Unexpectedly, Hera caught up with her. "I knew it, Phoebe. You're still after Johnny! Are you addicted to being a homewrecker? Do you think you're Olivia Larson because you look like her?"I know Mr. Quinton only married you because you look like Olivia, but it's a pity you're not. That's why you were cast aside after you got married, right?"I heard that he
Elegance Gardens.As soon as Olivia entered the door, Ken appeared out of nowhere with Fred and Kate standing beside her. Then, the three of them looked at her with surprisingly serious eyes.Olivia was stunned for a moment. “What’s the matter? I just went out for a meal. Why are you so serious?”“Was Jennie the one who took you out?”It was Ken who spoke first.Olivia nodded. “Well, yes.”“Liv, are you crazy? You went out to eat with her?”Fred stepped forward, looked her up and down, and said with a frown, “Have you forgotten how she betrayed you? You should never tolerate someone who cheats even once. What if she had bad intentions of inviting you out?”“Pheebs, that woman is not as straightforward as you think.”Out of the three, Ken was the calmest. “Did she say what she was doing in Ocean City?”Olivia shook her head. “I asked, but she didn’t say anything. She only said that she wanted to stay in Ocean City and asked if I was still angry with her.”Hearing this, Fred r
Jennie brought Olivia to a popular fondue place. The melted cheese looked very appetizing, and it was the kind that Olivia liked in the past.However, she could not raise her spirits today, and after eating a few mouthfuls, she put down her fork and started to space out.Jennie gave her a piece of strawberry. “Pheebs, eat more. You are so skinny now. Why do you still eat so little?”“Maybe I don’t have a good appetite.”“Don’t you always have an appetite for cheese? Pheebs, how long have you been like this? Have you seen a doctor?”“I’m used to it. It’s fine.”Jennie suddenly grabbed Olivia’s hand and looked at her solemnly. “Pheebs, what’s wrong with you? You’ve really changed a lot, and I don’t even know you anymore. Even though I could tell you were sad before, you were still very positive, but now… I’m worried that you’re going to do something stupid.”Upon hearing this, Olivia was stunned for a moment. Then, she forced a smile. “No, I just haven’t slept well recently, so I’
The next day, Olivia woke up and planned to go to the mental hospital to find Dorothy without telling everyone, but she received an unexpected call.“Pheebs, it’s me. I’m in Ocean City. Do you want to meet?”Olivia was stunned for a few seconds before she realized who the other party was. Then, she could not stop herself from frowning.“Jennie Sutherland?”“Pheebs, are you still mad at me? Why are you calling my full name like that?”Olivia pursed her lips. She smiled dryly and did not explain.Perhaps it was because too many things had happened recently and they had affected her state of mind. Unbeknownst to her, she became less tolerant now.Whatever happened in the past had not blown away like dust, but remained in her heart and turned into a deep grudge.When she heard that Olivia was not speaking, Jennie smiled. “Are you free for a meal? Pheebs, do you not even want to eat with me now? I am genuinely…”“Next time.”She was still a murder suspect. Plus, she still had not
‘Zy...‘This woman looks like Zy…’Fiona Miller glanced at her, frowned slightly, and stepped forward to get in front of her.“You are so weak, but you still have time to worry about me? Stand behind me.”Olivia was taken aback. Not only did they look alike, but they even spoke similarly, especially so as she stood in front of Olivia. They were so similar…Before Olivia knew it, her eyes were red.‘Zy…’However, her Zy died in her arms. She watched Zy lose her breath with her own eyes, so how could she appear here?However, Olivia was really greedy for more time with Zy, so greedy that she did not want to be rational anymore.When she regained her composure, she saw Fiona and the fat woman engaging in a fight, so she hurried forward to help. Olivia pulled the fat woman’s hair back and then separated the two.The fat woman cursed a few times, but in the end, she was still a little scared, so she ran to the opposite side of the room and squatted down.Under the light, Fiona’s
“He really is innocent!”Olivia roared as she watched the officer walking away.However, the other party did not look back at her. It was as if no one cared about the truth at all.Just as she lost her footing and fell, someone pulled her hair forcefully.“Ah!”“Hello, b*tch! Someone wants us to take good care of you!”When Olivia heard that, an unusually tall and burly woman had already dragged her to the ground. The woman then sat on Olivia’s body and slapped her with all her might.Olivia had just had a fever and was still weak. Thus, when she was slapped hard all of a sudden, she felt her brain buzzing instantly.However, the other party did not seem like she was going to stop. After that, the woman raised her hand and slapped Olivia again.After two slaps, blood spilled from the corner of Olivia’s mouth, contrasting against her pale face even more eerily.Just as the fat woman was about to slap her for the third time, Olivia suddenly exerted all her strength to grab the
After a while, someone kicked open the door, and uniformed police officers walked in with an arrest warrant.“Miss Olivia Larson, we need you to come with us.”Olivia was taken aback, but Fred had already rushed forward before she could register what was going on.“There is no Olivia Larson here. You have found the wrong person. My sister still has a fever and needs to rest. Please get out immediately!”However, the leader of the group just glanced at him, ignored him, and then walked around him to the bed. After that, he looked down at Olivia, who was lying weakly on the bed.“Ms. Larson, you probably don’t want me to take coercive measures, do you?”Olivia did not know what was happening, but she knew very well that her identity had been revealed. She had nowhere to escape, so she had to face the music.Therefore, she lifted the blanket and stood up.“Okay, I’ll go with you. But please wait for a moment downstairs to let me change, okay?”The man glanced at her and nodded, “
Olivia fell ill. However, scared of being hounded by the paparazzi, Mrs. Simmons was too scared to send her to the hospital, so she could only call Ken over.The two were busy these days and did not have much contact with each other. Ken came in and froze when he saw Olivia lying in bed.'Why is her face so pale? Why is she so frail? She's so thin that she looks like a piece of paper from far away and has blended into the covers.' "Ken? You came?"Groggy, Olivia felt someone standing at the end of the bed watching her, so she tried hard to open her eyes to see. Seeing it was Ken, she squeezed out a smile."Jeez, Mrs. Simmons. I'm just a little tired. Did she have to bring you over?"Ken frowned, went up to test her forehead, and said, "You're an adult. Why did you get yourself into this with no one around to look after you? You're a mother. You don't even know you have a fever and still stay up all night."Olivia pressed her lips together and said nothing."Are you worried ab
Xavier bailed out Olivia that night."Pheebs, don't worry. Nothing's going to happen to you. Trust me."Xavier grabbed her hand and comforted her repeatedly, but Olivia did not respond. She was like a stunned puppet.She had temporarily left the place that scared her, but her heart was still unsettled.She thought everything was over when John died.However, it seemed John's death was the beginning of everything.Who was behind all this?She desperately wanted to know.She suddenly grabbed Xavier's arm and used an almost imploring tone, "Xavier, help me find out who did this, will you?"She knew she could only solve the problem from the root by finding the real culprit and source.Xavier frowned. "I will. Please give me a moment.""Thank you...""Don't thank me. You're making yourself a stranger."Xavier opened the car door for her as he spoke. "Get in the car. I'll take you home. Lyla and the rest are waiting for you at home."Olivia froze at the mention of Lyla. Then sh
After leaving Quinton Group, Olivia got another call from the school."Mrs. Quinton, you can be at ease now that we've investigated this and all those involved have been handed over to the police."The person on the other end of the line paused. "Besides, we've also solved the case of Sam smashing the car. All the teachers involved have been fired, and the students have been ordered to transfer to another school. You can let Sam and Miss come back to school without any worries, Madam."She frowned as she hung up.She was surprised by the way the school handled this.She did not believe the school handled it voluntarily. After all, the principal had arrogantly demanded an apology from her.Why fire everyone all of a sudden?The more Olivia thought about it, the more she realized that it must have something to do with the board of directors, but who was secretly helping her?'Is it Zac?'Is he atoning for it in such a way because he knows he did something wrong but is too scared
