Olivia lay on the bed and drowned in her thoughts.

This day was a really long day. She had just seen Dad’s suicide note and Mom’s autopsy report, and once she got back, she got framed.

Everything happened like it was yesterday, and tears flowed uncontrollably down the corner of Olivia’s eyes.

The evidence she had gathered was not enough to sue Dorothy, but she could not leave it as it was.

As she thought about Zac Quinton, she sat up from her bed.

After scouring through the room for a long while, she finally found a phone hidden in the cracks.

Olivia walked to the balcony and dialed Zac’s number warily as she kept tabs on the direction of the bathroom door. She was afraid that John would enter the room suddenly.

“It’s me, Mr. Quinton.”

When Zac heard that it was Olivia’s voice, he breathed a sigh of relief. “Are you okay? What happened yesterday? Are you safe? Where are you?”

Olivia was stunned for a while. A warm, fuzzy feeling arose in her heart.

    Olivia was instantly discouraged. John was right. She had nothing. All she had was revenge to be taken.However, it was like this child was fated to be born.He had gone through so many ups and downs with her, and he had survived through everything, so how could she be the one to personally kill him off?She could not do it!“Don’t you worry about that!”John carried her up by the waist and walked towards the bathroom. “Bathe!”“Let me go!”John released her and walked out.He stood at the door and looked at the bathroom. He was overwhelmed with mixed feelings.He was so angry about the fact that he had begun to be curious about where she went the night before.Following that thought, John opened the cabinet beside Olivia’s bed and scoured for the picture he saw the last time. However, it was to no avail, since he only found a brown bottle filled with what looked like to be medication.Why did that woman have to eat this?John was suddenly reminded of what Zyla had said. “S

    “It’s a little too long. If there is no substantial evidence, it’s pretty hard to get it in the books for investigation.”The answer that Zac gave was within Olivia’s expectations. She lowered her head and her fingernails dug into the flesh of her palm. She thought about it for a few minutes before asking abruptly. “What if the body was dug out to be reexamined?”Zac paused and turned to look at Olivia, surprised. He seemed to have connected the dots and asked, “Your mom?”“Yeah.”If she were to dig Mom’s body out once more, it was an abomination, and that required a lot of courage.However, if doing so could put Dorothy behind bars, Olivia thought that Mom would most likely forgive her. “Don’t you have the autopsy report?”“This autopsy report is dated two years ago. Also… I think it’s easy to overrule a piece of paper unless we could get a hold of the forensic pathologist from all those years ago.”“What was your mother’s cause of death at that time?”“She died of childbirt

    Olivia could not give up on finding the truth, and she could not give up on looking for Uncle Wallace.After three hours of driving, Zac and Olivia finally arrived at their destination.Initially, Olivia thought that they would be at a police station. She did not think that they would end up at a funeral parlor.Olivia paused. “A funeral parlor?”“His body was thrown into the river and had flown downstream until it reached here. Then, the body was retrieved by the team designated to fish out bodies.”“Initially, it was supposed to go to the police station, but since no one came to claim the body, and they could not find any information, they had sent it to the funeral parlor and it was supposed to get cremated.”Olivia pursed her lips. She got out of the car with a grave expression.Uncle Wallace’s body had been in the river for such a long time. He must be so cold and in so much pain.The kind, loving face of Uncle Wallace appeared in Olivia’s mind, and the last phone conversa

    At that time, Olivia was so frightened she clung to Uncle Wallace and bawled her eyes out.Instead of stopping the blood flow, Uncle Wallace ignore the gaping wound on his calf and comforted her gently instead.And, it was also because of that that Uncle Wallace had missed out on the perfect window of time for a full recovery, causing him to still have a little limp on his right foot after all these years.However, to prevent Olivia from feeling guilty, Uncle Wallace would cover his scar by wearing long pants all the time.Also, every time he was with her, he would be like any other perfectly normal person and would walk with no limp.Uncle Wallace did not say anything about it, but it did not mean that Olivia had forgotten.Olivia was crying so hard she was hyperventilating. She hung onto Zac’s arm and forced herself to stand. She wobbled her way over to the other side of the body.She gritted her teeth hard when she opened the white cloth. When she laid eyes on Uncle Wallace’s

    Zac looked at her worriedly. “You must be hungry. Let’s grab you something to eat before you go back.”Just as he finished his sentence, he thought about Uncle Wallace’s corpse and immediately realized he might have said the wrong thing. “If you have an appetite…”Olivia turned over and forced a smile with tears in her eyes, “Sure. Let’s go eat. I’ll be fine.”Zac was slightly taken aback. “Alright.”Olivia raised her hand and wiped away her tears. “Are you wondering why I still have an appetite?”“Yeah, I’m curious.”“Didn’t you tell me that I’d need to eat more to gain the energy I needed to get revenge? So, I want to eat. I want to survive and get my revenge!”Zac was excited deep down, and he nodded. “It’s good that you remember. Don’t worry too much about Uncle Wallace’s body. I have instructed my people to secretly send him back. By then, the coroner will submit the evidence.” Olivia fell into silence for a brief moment before she murmured, “Mr. Quinton, can we get Dorot

    The man at the other end of the line was slightly irritated, and he sounded more aggressive as he asked, “Olivia Larson, have you forgotten about your identity?”“No, and I wouldn’t dare to.”“Olivia Larson!”She had no energy to continue pestering John, so she hung up the call and then switched off her phone. Zac was stunned. “Johnny?”“Yeah.”“Is he looking for trouble? Should we just forget about the meal and send you home?”After what happened, Zac was aware of how John treated Olivia, and he could not help but be slightly worried. Especially since whenever he was involved, John would get even more pissed than usual. That was why he dared not contact Olivia for such a long time. “It’s fine.”Olivia pursed her lips and took a sip of water. “Mr. Quinton, don’t be so nervous. I was already determined to be guilty the moment I stepped outside, so it doesn’t matter how long I’ll be outside for.”“I’m just worried that he might hurt you.”“I’m used to it.”‘Used to it…’ T

    Olivia’s fair cheeks were blushing, and her starry eyes became bright again when she was drunk.She raised her glass and touched Zac’s cup. "Zac, Uncle Wallace is dead, and the last relative who loved me is gone. Who do I turn to now when I want to cry?"Zac pursed his lips. He was tempted to say, ‘Come to me,’ but he hesitated. In the end, he chose to keep quiet instead. “Zac, my younger brother is being misled by Dorothy, and he sees me as his enemy now. What should I do? She even threatened me with him. What should I do?!”“Zac, my miscarriage was caused by a car accident, not a betrayal… I’ve loved Johnny for seventeen years…”“Zac, seventeen years… I’ve only had one period of seventeen years to give, and I gave him all of it, but…”When she raised her head, her face was completely covered in tears. “Zac…”Every time she said ‘Zac’, his heart trembled, and the inexplicable flame in his heart grew more and more intense. Finally, he got up, walked over to her, and sat by he

    Olivia was already breathing heavily as she was drunk and she immediately got choked by her saliva after being tossed in bed by John. “Cough…”She frowned and slapped John’s hand and ranted, “Don’t pinch me, it hurts!”“Olivia Larson, still pretending to be drunk?”He remembered that her alcohol tolerance used to be quite high, how could she be this drunk?Olivia pursed her lips, feeling aggrieved like a child. Tears rolled down her eyes, she grabbed John’s wrist, and said softly, "I’ve loved him for seventeen years, why didn’t Johnny believe me?”“I didn’t betray him, why didn’t he believe me?”That being said, she even wiped her snot and tears with his hand. John frowned and immediately pulled his hand away.He was a clean freak, a very serious one, and he wanted to wake this woman up at that moment by splashing water at her.“Olivia Larson, you did it on purpose, didn’t you?”Just as he finished questioning, he heard Olivia yelling at him, “That idiot, I won’t fall for hi

    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

"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.

    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
