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
If only one of Fred and John could be acquitted, Olivia would choose Fred without a doubt.She knew the choice was more or less vindictive, but she had no choice.Zac raised his eyebrows slightly when she asked but did not give her an affirmative answer."Liv, let's think about it again.""But didn't you say there was no time?""Yeah, there's no time, but there's still time for us to have a meal."Olivia looked over her shoulder at him, frowning. "How can I eat when Freddy's still in there?""I'm taking you to dinner first because you have no appetite."Once he finished speaking, the car stopped.Zac opened the car door, moved skillfully into the wheelchair, and stretched his hand to her. "Come on."Olivia glanced but did not put her hand on it. She pushed the car door on the other side and got out.She glanced up at the sign. "Why eat here?"The place they came to was not a restaurant but Time Bar.Zac looked at her with a flicker of loneliness in his eyes. He silently wi
When Zac said nothing, Olivia gulped and explained. "I thought you've established yourself in Quinton Group, and I..."She gripped her clothes. "I want to leave Ocean City with Freddy, Ian, and the two kids once Freddy gets out."So I don't want to delay any longer. After all, it will be a hassle to come back and deal with all this stuff after I leave."With that said, she glanced at Zac and was alarmed to see that he did not look too good.She did not do anything wrong, but she still owed Zac, which made her nervous about getting a divorce.Zac was torn, but he dared not refuse.He forced a smile after a long time. "You married me as a favor, so I will say yes if you want a divorce. After all, you're a free woman, Liv. I can't tie you to me, but..."He lowered his head slightly to hide the panic in his eyes. "Do you... really want to leave?"Olivia's eyes quivered as she was shocked.After seeing Zac's reaction, she thought he would refuse, but she did not expect him to say s
"At that time, I only wanted to prove that I could be better than Fabian and that Jimmy was wrong about everything. I wanted to get back at him..."With that said, he scoffed. "But Jimmy has vanished, and Fabian's no match for me. I feel a little lonely in that position.""Liv, sometimes I look back to find no one by my side. Even Ken thinks I'm his enemy now..."Zac looked up, his eyes full of loneliness. "Liv, will you just let me leave with you as a favor? At least I don't feel so lonely when I'm around you."It upset Olivia.Perhaps she was drunk as her eyes watered suddenly.She wanted to say she would stay with him...However, she could not joke with the children's lives.She could not be that selfish.After a long pause, her lips quivered as she said, "Zac, if you feel alone, I'll come back to you when I get the kids settled down, okay?"There was no way she would leave the kids in Ocean City, but there was no reason she could not repay Zac.She could only do that if
'Sir?'Zac stopped and turned around to look at Olivia.'Is the Sir she mentioned Milo?'But what's John got to do with Milo?'He pondered for a while before saying with a frown, "I have no grudge against him. And I'm not targeting him.""Liar! John, you're a liar!"Olivia suddenly got emotional. Her grip on him also tightened. "If there's no grudge, why did you repeatedly blame Sir and even accused him of killing Oliver?"Zac did a double-take. His eyes darkened slightly as he realized the connection instantly.It seemed that John had told Liv his suspicions about Milo at the police station.However, instead of winning Liv's trust, she questioned and resisted him.Knowing that Olivia and John were having another crisis of trust, Zac smiled slightly as he gazed at Olivia. He reached out and touched her slightly burning cheek before turning around to leave the private room.He was worried that Olivia would do something stupid to save John.It seemed his worry was misplaced.
