Ken turned over to see Xavier’s face, then pulled his arm out.

“Our business is none of your concern.”

Xavier grabbed his arm and dragged him backwards then whispered in his ear, “But I was the one who bailed Fred out and helped Pheebs find the man that she was looking for. So, am I still unqualified?”

Although his voice was soft and he sounded casual, Ken still felt the hint of threat in his words.

He had always been suspicious of Xavier from the very beginning, and now, after hearing what he said, Ken disliked him even. Yet, he was aware that since Xavier saved Fred, Olivia would not believe him even if he told her that Xavier was not a good guy.

He then glanced at him coldly and swung his hand off once again before walking away.

“Fred, what the hell are you doing? Do you know how worried your sister was? She stayed up all night because of you, so you better clarify where you were yesterday.”

Fred was shocked. He backed off slightly then stood up while looking at Ken timidly.

    That being said, Fred’s expression changed immediately as he stared at Xavier coldly. “Xavier, nothing is related to you here. Stop pestering my sister!”“Can you not be so indifferent while meeting an old friend?”That being said, he placed his hand on Fred’s shoulder and smiled. “At the very least, I’ve been to your house for dinner, so I can be considered a close friend.”Fred took a step back in disgust and swung his hand away. “Stop pretending to be close.”Xavier was not annoyed. Instead, he patted the tree leaves on Fred’s shirt away and chuckled. “But I believe that Pheebs would be interested in the truth.”“You…”“Fred, enough already.”Seeing how Fred was about to explode again, Olivia quickly stopped him. “Fred, if Xavier hadn’t bailed you out, I wouldn’t have even gotten to see you. To be fair, he’s your savior. You can’t treat him like this.”“What?”Fred would never expect the person who bailed him out to be Xavier. He said in complete disbelief, “Sis, are you su

    “Ken, why are you fooling around as well…”Olivia frowned helplessly.In fact, she never trusted Xavier completely.However, he had indeed helped her this time. If not, Fred would still be locked up right now.“I know you might not accept whatever I’m saying, but I can tell that he’s someone with ulterior motives. He’s not as nice and approachable as he looks. There must be something else behind it.”That being said, Ken added, “I assume he has feelings for you, but honestly… I’m afraid he’s aiming for something else aside from getting you.”Olivia felt a little embarrassed hearing such words, and her ears were slightly flushed. “Ken, what are you talking about? I’ve never thought that he was actually into me. I’m aware of that.”After all, she had been suspicious about him since the moment they met, and the idea remained until now.“You see that, Liv? I’m not the only one who says so. Even Ken agrees. Just try to stay away from him.”Olivia glared at him and said sternly, “Ke

    ‘If John is really guilty, then he deserves the punishment, but if it’s not him, I can’t bring myself to deliberately frame him into it.‘What's more, once the false testimony is given, this matter will last forever. It’s like a time bomb that may explode at any time.’She did not want Fred to be immersed in this for the rest of his life.Yet she knew that she could not stop him, so she could only remind him, hoping that he could consider his options thoroughly.“Liv, I understand.”Fred smiled and carried her up before slowly placing her in bed and covering her blanket. Seeing this, Olivia drooped her eyes and sighed heavily, feeling very uncomfortable in her heart.‘I sometimes wonder if it’s not John or Dorothy, will I still feel bad for the person?’‘Perhaps this is what we call double standards.’Thinking of such, she shook her head with a chuckle.‘What do I even owe this man? Why do I still hope that he’s innocent?’…After Kate came back, the three had their breakf

    Seeing who it was, Olivia was slightly surprised. “What are you doing here?”Xavier chuckled lightly and walked toward her. He sounded a little hoarse and spoke in a teasing tone, “I missed you, so I came over to see you.”Hearing these words, Olivia’s ears turned red slightly. She lowered her head in embarrassment. “Cut it out.”“Cut what out?”He pulled a chair and sat beside her while looking at her deeply with his narrow eyes. “Do you really think that I’m messing with you when I say that I like you? Or you don’t believe that I really like you?”“I already told you back in Murica that there’s nothing about me that’s worth your feelings.”Hearing that, Xavier smiled. “Pheebs, both of the two strongest pillars in Ocean City fell for you. How can you be unworthy? Besides, I’ve explained to you back in Murica that my feelings for you have been genuine since the beginning. If not, I wouldn’t be here to look for you.”That being said, he laughed mockingly. “If you’re willing to li

    Olivia leaned her head to listen again, frowned, and said, "Is it my auditory hallucination? I thought I heard the voices of many people."Xavier placed her back in bed and wanted to clarify her doubts. “Let me take a look.”He went to the door and looked toward the right side but found nothing. He then turned to the left and saw John.The next second, John was dragged away by the police from the back and disappeared at the end of the corridor.“Xavier? Is anybody there?”Olivia wanted to take a look, but she was in bed and could not move, so she could only ask him.Soon, Xavier turned around and shook his head. "No, it's probably the noise from the elevator just now."Hearing these words, Olivia finally felt rest assured."But the corridor seems to be windy and a little cold. I’m worried you might catch a cold. I’ll take you for a walk in the daytime tomorrow. Let's just move around the ward for now.”Olivia did not say anything about this as it was indeed colder at night, so

    Two days later, while watching TV, Olivia suddenly received a call from Milo."Ms. James, there are updates on Wade's case."Olivia's eyes lit up upon hearing that it was related to Wade. She hurriedly asked, "Have you caught the murderer?"Milo sighed. "According to the reports, the suspect has been found. However, the case seemed quite tricky because the other party is quite influential in Ocean City.""Influential in Ocean City?"Olivia's heart skipped a beat. ‘Could it be him…’"Mr. Hulton, do you know who it is?"Milo was silent for a while. "You know that person. John Freeman, the president of the Freeman Group."As soon as the voice on the other end of the phone spoke, the news anchor on the TV said, "Recently, there have been frequent reports on President Freeman’s impending imprisonment. Along with the alleged reports of the two counts of contract murder by the President today, this has caused a massive crash in Freeman Group stock shares. Many high-level executives ha

    Olivia did not have time to think. She put down her phone and hurriedly crawled to the bedside, trying to get into the wheelchair by herself.‘I want to see him!’Unfortunately, her hands were clumsy, her feet were heavy, and her head was foggy. Even though she was drenched in sweat, she couldn't get into the wheelchair after a long struggle.The more anxious she was, the more difficult it became. In the end, she broke down in tears.Olivia was not sure if she had lost arm strength or was overly anxious, but just as she was about to succeed, her arms gave out and she fell hard to the ground.The excruciating pain made her forget to breathe as she lay on the icy tiles. The cold air pierced her body and made her shiver uncontrollably."Pheebs? Are you okay?"Xavier ditched the things in his hands and immediately ran over to pick her up from the ground. He carefully checked her hands in distress. "Are you hurt? What happened?"Although there were no visible wounds, Xavier was stil

    "I will try my best to negotiate. I hope I can avoid going to court.""How do you plan to settle?"Xavier was silent for a while, then gently covered her with the quilt. He slowly sat on the edge of the bed, turned his head, and stared at her lightly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. "It depends on whether we can find the real murderer."The real murderer...Olivia's heart tightened inexplicably.‘If Fred testified against John, he would’ve been charged with this crime, right?‘Wouldn't this allow the real murderer to get away with it?‘Who could guarantee that the real culprit will not hurt Fred?’Xavier noticed her brows were furrowed tightly. He reached out and gently loosen her brows with his fingers."Pheebs, don't worry. You and your family will be fine with me. Trust me, okay?"Olivia's body froze, and she could not recompose herself for a long time.Up until now, she could only trust him. However, how could she put the lives of her whole family in Xavie

    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
