Olivia thought over it many times but still did not manage to come to a solution when it came to Oliver.She watched Rainie in the surveillance footage and could not help but frown.‘Neither of the issues can be solved immediately. How irritating.’Especially the one related to Oliver. The longer she took, the more dangerous things would get. No one knew what John had told Oliver. If everything was spilled, she would not be able to explain herself either.Thinking of this, she punched her bed hard.The only person that could untie a knot was the one who tied it in the first. It seemed like she would have to go straight to the source here.She called the man.It took quite some time before the other party picked up. “Liv, I am in the middle of something right now. Can I call you back later?”At this moment, John was at the mountain Wade was last seen at, and he was trying to find him while holding a torchlight. The signal in the area was also quite poor. However, how could Oli
Oliver had no idea what Olivia meant when she said both parties had money, but he did not pursue it. Instead, he said with a hint of pain, "Ms. James, you can't break up a family with money. No matter what you say, my blood flows in Fred’s veins. It's a fact."I won't give up my son for money. I'm over fifty years old now. There is no point in asking for more money. All I want is my son. I want to be with my son and make it up to him."Olivia frowned and felt a pain in her temples.Oliver did not want money, which made it even trickier.Her eyes lit up suddenly. "What about your daughter? Do only sons matter? Do daughters not matter? In terms of your bloodline, they are the same.""Ms. James, it's not that I don't want to find Ginny, but that Fred doesn't want me to approach Ginny. I'm only respecting Fred's wishes."He spoke as if it was true...If Olivia did not know the truth, she would have believed it."Ms. James, I know you have Fred's best interests at heart, but please
She saw Rainie sitting curled up in a corner as soon as she entered. Her head was buried between her knees, so no one could see her face.Olivia did not get too close, standing about away from her."I heard you wanted to see me."Rainie's shoulders shook as she looked up slowly. She stared at her for a long time, but she did not make a sound.Olivia took a few steps forward. "Don't you know me?"Suddenly, Rainie jumped to her feet and rushed toward her. "I remember you! The person I bumped into in the elevator the other day!"Startled, Olivia backed away and reached out to stop her. "Don't rush over. Why do you want to see me?"Seeing Olivia so guarded against her, Rainie suddenly curled her lip, and the tears came pouring down.You don't like me! I only want to thank you. Why do you hate me?"Olivia was confused. "You didn't call me here to show me your crying, did you?"Rainie wiped her tears and held out a hand toward her.Olivia was confused. "What?""Candy!""Candy?"
"I'm not..."Rainie struggled to run, but Olivia pressed her to the ground."What are you afraid of? Are you afraid I'll kill you to get back at Zy? Or are you afraid Dorothy will kill you if you tell the truth? Or..."Olivia narrowed her eyes. "Are you afraid of someone else?"Rainie shuddered, averted her gaze, and tried to get up again."I don't know. Don't ask me. I don't know anything...""You're lying! You're acting crazy because you know you're the safest here, right?"Olivia did not give her a chance to breathe. She asked with a red face, "Who's been holding you captive for the last four years? Are you afraid of them?"Rainie's face turned ghastly pale as she shook her head in horror. "I don't know. I don't know. I don't know anything. Don't make me!""Okay, you can keep pretending to be crazy. But I'm telling you, I won't waste my time with you!"Olivia released her, stood up, and condescendingly looked down at her. "Since you're going to play dumb, you're useless to
Back in the ward, Olivia stayed silent, only sitting on the sofa while clutching her stomach.One thing was clear to her after her experiment—Rainie was pretending to be insane!Why was she doing that? Besides, she was about to tell the truth. Why did she pretend to be crazy when she saw Kate?"Pheebs?"Kate saw her clutching her stomach and was worried that her wound opened up again, so she called her for a long time. However, Olivia gave no response, so she could only give her a gentle nudge. "Pheebs, is your wound bleeding again?"Olivia was thinking about what had just happened when she was suddenly pushed. Startled, she looked up coldly. "What is it?""Pheebs..." Kate was frightened by the look in her eyes and nervously gripped her clothes. "What... What came over you?"Knowing that she had overreacted, Olivia calmed down and said with a chuckle, "Sorry, I was traumatized by Rainie. I didn't realize it was you for a while.""Pheebs, you scared me too. The look in your ey
Caught red-handed by Fred, Olivia quickly hid her phone behind her back and said with a fake smile, "Nothing, I just opened the door to see why Kate wasn't back yet.""Really?"Fred glanced at her skeptically before turning to look in the direction of the elevator. "It's not up yet. Go inside and wait. It's cold outside."To prevent Fred from suspecting anything, she obediently followed him back to the ward and lay down again in bed."I heard you saw Rainie this morning. Did you get any information?""No. She's still crazy.""Liv, don't worry about it. You'll find out sooner or later since she's already here."Fred took an orange and sat down to peel it carefully. "Besides, Dorothy is in a mental hospital now. No one is going to threaten Rainie's life. You’d better get well first.""But...""Lyla asked me this morning why you’ve been away for so long and if you don't want her anymore."Fred handed her the peeled orange and said softly but almost menacingly, "You don't want Ly
It was already evening when Harry arrived, and Fred walked into the room with food containers.He froze at the sight of Harry before subtly pushing Harry aside and turning to Olivia, saying with a smile, "Liv, stop being mad at me. I made you your favorite dish."Olivia curled her lip. "Seafood is my favorite. Can you make me some?""Liv, aren't you only giving me a hard time?""Hmph, and you said you would coax me. You're controlling my food and movement. I have no freedom at all."Just then, Harry chimed in, "Fred, don't you think it's alright to take a few bites even though she should avoid them?"Fred frowned and glared at him with a hawk-like gaze. "She's not your sister, so you don't feel bad for her. It has nothing to do with you. Go home. Liv doesn't need you to look after her."Harry looked aggrievedly at Olivia. "Pheebs, Fred doesn't seem to like me. Why don't I go home first?" With that said, he turned around to leave.Seeing this, Olivia immediately grabbed his wr
Unsure, Fred glanced up again, but there was a smile in the corners of Harry's eyes. Instead of it being eerie, it was full of sunshine and kindness.Did he see it wrong?However, how was he going to explain the goosebumps he had even if he did see it wrong?Was he scaring himself?"Fred, why do you keep staring at me like that? Do you not want to see me?"Harry asked suddenly when he saw Fred staring at him.Fred withdrew his gaze, hid his doubts, and snapped, "I'd like to see the look on your face when you eat my food."Harry grinned. "Smiling, of course. Fred, you're such a good cook. It'd be great if I could eat your food more often."With that, he took a piece of chili and ate a mouthful of food.Olivia felt sorry for him and gave him several pieces of meat. "Don't just eat vegetables. Eat some meat too.""Thank you, Pheebs. Fred is good at cooking. Even the chili tastes good.""If you like his cooking, you can come to my house for food when you're free. We only need to
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
