That video included the moment Fred and Olivia arrived at the hotel, and it included her bringing Fred away. It was a completely uncut clip which also included footage of her stopping to wipe the door handle…If the policemen were to get their hands on this video, not only would Fred be unable to explain what went down, but she would also become an accomplice.“Liv, there’s nothing we can do now. I offered to pay them, but they were unwilling to accept.”“No!”Olivia was trembling as she grasped Zac’s hand tightly and pleaded, “Zac, please think of something else. Fred didn’t kill him, so he can’t say that he did!”If Fred were to admit to it, not only would he be subjected to a jail sentence, but he would also have to carry the label of someone who committed patricide.He was only twenty-something years old. If this were to happen, his whole life would be over…Fred had helped her so much, so she really did not want to see Fred end up that way.She made up her mind and spit th
Seeing how Zac was stuttering, Olivia was extremely anxious, and she rushed towards him with a frown. “Talk to me. What is it?”“Liv, this method…”Olivia interrupted irritatingl “Just say it. Regardless of anything, we will still have to discuss it before making the decision.”Zac glanced at her, took a deep breath and said, “The other party needs a culprit. If you want Fred to be safe, you will need a scapegoat. In other words, we need another suspect.”Hearing these words, Olivia was stunned and she looked at him in disbelief. “Are you saying that we can frame someone else?”“Liv, this is the only way to help Fred remain free. If you’re unwilling to do so, then he can only plead guilty and shape it into him sounding overly-defensive.” “But…”Olivia stared at him blankly and could not bring herself to say a word.‘How am I supposed to decide on this?‘I can’t endure Fred being framed, but that doesn’t mean that I can frame someone else, right?‘How can I rest assured with
“Ken, what are you talking about?”Olivia was confused, and she pulled Ken. “How would Zac know? John just got brought away.”‘He just got brought away and the photos are already all over the internet.‘This is definitely a planned setup!‘Who’s the one that wants him dead?’Olivia felt like a mess, and she could not think of anyone suspicious.The most frustrating part was that John did not mention who he was suspecting before he left…Now it was more difficult for her to save him even if she wanted to.“Liv, don’t get deceived by this man!”Olivia regained his composure and looked toward Ken. “Ken, what’s wrong? Why are you saying bad things about Zac…”Ken snorted and asked, “Did he ask you to testify to someone else being the killer?”Hearing such, Olivia was taken aback before nodding blankly. “Yeah, but…”“He already knows that the police are suspecting John, so he deliberately pushed you into a desperate situation, forcing you to testify against others to save Fred.
This was initially unrelated to Zac. It was she who asked for his help, which was why he was dragged into this.‘But now Ken is calling him a traitor. This…’However, she also knew that Ken was worried about John’s safety and the motive of whoever was behind this conspiracy. That was why he got desperate.Although she hated John as well, she did not want him to get accused and framed in such a way.Even if there was an outcome through such a method of revenge, she would not be content with it. When the two fell into silence, Olivia finally spoke up, “Zac, do we not have any other ways? I can’t bring myself to testify against John, and I can’t tell Fred to do so as well, but asking me to force Fred to plead guilty…”Olivia bit her lip and said with extreme despair, “Zac, I can’t do it either. Fred didn’t kill anyone. He shouldn’t plead guilty for something that he didn’t do. If there’s really no other way, I’ll just turn myself in and let them take me as the culprit.”As she spo
Just as Olivia stepped out of the hospital, the cold wind blew past her body and she could not help but cover her jacket tighter. She frowned and let out a long sigh.Things got even more complicated the moment John became the second suspect. ‘This is so out of my range to resolve…’She was not concerned about John initially, but knowing that the other party spent so much effort just to drag him into the game, she was already expecting the worst.‘But what can I do?’Thinking of such, she was even more worried.“Be careful!”As soon as the voice sounded, a car sped past her.When the car passed by, the driver did not forget to step on the brake and curse at her, “Hey crazy lady, are you trying to die?!”Olivia finally realized what happened, and a cold sweat broke out over her entire body. She froze on the spot. “Pheebs, what are you doing?”Olivia regained her composure and turned around in fear. When she saw the familiar face, she let out a sigh of relief. “Kate, it’s
‘The first time could be an illusion, but what about the second time?’‘Am I really sick?’Olivia quickly patted the driver. “Sir, stop the car, hurry!”The driver did an emergency brake and she rushed out of the car trying to find Zyla’s figure in the middle of the road. Yet there was nothing else except for the cars speeding past her. Kate was terrified and quickly pulled her back. “Olivia Larson, are you trying to kill yourself?!”Olivia still wanted to search for Zyla, but Kate held her back tightly. “What’s wrong with you?”“I’m looking for Zy.”Hearing these words, Kate thought that Olivia was hallucinating. Her face turned pale while looking at her worriedly. “Wake up, Zyla is already dead!”Olivia refused to listen and pushed Kate away, wanting to search again on the opposite side of the road. Slap!In the next second, a heavy slap landed on Olivia’s face, which stunned her.“Are you awake now?”Olivia covered her burning cheek in a daze and looked at Kate b
She then changed her words. “I’m just afraid that you might die here. After all, I’m not done with my revenge on you yet.”John obviously knew that it was just an act, and his smile turned even more gentle.“A friend in need is a friend indeed. Only at this time can I see your concern. I guess this imprisonment was worth it.”Olivia’s ears reddened slightly. “What nonsense are you speaking? Who cares about you?”John reached out to hold her hands through the bars. “Alright, stop debating with me here. Hurry up and go home, okay?”Hearing these words, Olivia felt a thump in her chest as her eyes moistened. Seeing how she was about to cry, John started to panic. It was worse because he was behind the bars. “Why are you crying? Don’t cry. I can’t reach out to wipe your tears either.”He patted her hand with a smile. “Go home, okay? I’ll be fine.”Olivia did not know why she was crying, but she would obviously not admit that she was worried about him.“I’m just here to see if y
After a long standoff, John finally said, "Liv, I know you refuse to believe this, but...""John."Not wanting to hear his lies, Olivia cut him off. "I don't want to hear you repeat the same thing. I'm tired of it.""Liv..."John felt a pang in his heart. He could not help quivering as he looked at her a little feebly. He opened his mouth but could not say a word.He realized how desperate Olivia had been four years earlier at that moment.However, he was not worried about himself right now. He was worried about her and Fred.If she still believed Milo was a good man, Milo would take advantage of her.'When the time comes...'Olivia had no idea what he was thinking. She looked up at him in disappointment and bit her lip as she coldly squeezed out a few words. "John, you've let me down again! But I swear, this will be the last time!"With that said, she turned around and left the detention center without looking back.She thought he would tell her the truth and let her know h
