One of them backed away a little. “Really?”“Of course, it’s true. The infection rate is 100 percent!”However, the other man whispered, “Bro, she might be lying, not to mention…”On the dark road, a Maybach suddenly appeared and sped toward the three thugs.The three men were so scared that they tried to run but could not outrun a car. In the end, their bones turned into jelly and fell to the ground.“Ahh! Help!”The driver of the Maybach stepped on the brake when it was about to run into them.The three of them were so scared. Even a fool could see that the car was coming for them.Then, a pair of shiny shoes appeared before them.“Help! Please don’t kill us!”John stepped on one of the men’s hands as he leaned over and spoke in his deep voice, “Are you looking for trouble? How dare you touch my woman!”“We’re sorry…”He stepped on the hand harder and lifted his foot. Then, he ordered, “Take care of these three.”“Yes.”Then, he approached Olivia, who was scared out of
Olivia thought of going, but she was afraid she would bump into John.“Just say whatever you want to say through the phone.”“Liv, you’re mad at me, aren’t you?”Then, Olivia heard a loud crash like some glass had shattered.Aaron said, “Liv, I’ll cut my wrist to prove I’m innocent if you don’t come.”“Don’t be ridiculous!”“Liv, I’ll be waiting for you in the King’s Club.”Then, Aaron hung up the call. Olivia could not reach him when she dialed back.Olivia frowned, and she was a little anxious.Although she did not believe in Aaron, she could not see her childhood friend die. It was someone’s life, after all.Olivia changed her clothes and drove the car to the King’s Club without any choice.Honestly, she was somewhat reluctant to go to the King’s Club.The last time, someone drugged her, and she had almost gotten into trouble.She was still a little afraid of that place now.Arriving at the King’s Club, Olivia quickly headed to the receptionist and asked, “Hello, which
Olivia’s obsession was so deep that she could not forget John easily. She loved and hated him.However, she did not intend to give others any chance because she did not want John to misunderstand.She stood up and looked coldly at Aaron. “Aaron, we grew up together. I’ve always taken you as my brother. So, please stop saying things that might cause misunderstanding between Johnny and me.”“Misunderstanding?”Aaron sneered. “So, what if he misunderstands? He broke my arms and threatened me, but did he change his attitude toward you?”Olivia’s brows furrowed. Although she knew about it, she still felt guilty about it.“Are your arms alright?”“I’m fine. He had only dislocated my arms. I had the doctor fix it, but it’s not as strong as it used to be.”“I’m sorry,” Olivia’s forehead puckered, “make sure you don’t provoke Johnny the next time.”Aaron suddenly stood up. “Johnny, Johnny… Why are you still calling him that? He is now with his mistress. Dorothy is your best friend!”H
Fear thundered down Olivia as she leaned against John’s embrace softly.When she saw the person subduing Aaron was Zac, she was startled. She lifted her head slowly and glanced at John, yet John was not looking at her.Aaron was dumbfounded, and his subconscious reaction was to struggle.“Let me go! Who are you?”Before Zac could speak, John sneered and said, “Aaron, don’t you know me? We’ve met.”He had never expected Aaron would be so bold.After being warned once, Aaron still dared to look for Olivia.Aaron’s body froze, and he looked at John, terrified. “Mr. F… Mr. Freeman?”John’s hands held onto Olivia’s waist tightly as he looked at Aaron with a plastered smile. “Olivia is my woman. You can never touch her even if I don’t want her anymore.”Aaron was terrified and begged John for mercy, “Mr. Freeman, please forgive me. I-I lost my mind.”Suddenly, he pointed his finger at Olivia. “It’s her! She seduced me! I was drunk and…”Olivia was startled. “Aaron, what are you ta
Olivia knew John had misunderstood her. She was afraid the misunderstanding would continue, so she wanted to ask why Aaron did that to her.Suddenly, she shouted, “Aaron, you’ll lose your hands if you don’t tell the truth.”Aaron froze. He wanted to confess, but he chose not to in the end.“Olivia, stop trying to frame me!”Olivia knew she was doomed and could not explain herself anymore.After Wes took Aaron away, John did not stay back and dragged Olivia by her wrist, taking her out of the room.“Johnny, he is lying!”“Olivia, I don’t believe you.”John’s words crushed Olivia’s tough disguise.Tears rolled down her face. She would always be on the weak side when she faced him.Zac ran after them but stopped when he recalled what John had said in the club.After all, he should not bother Olivia.It was better for him to help her out silently.Meanwhile, John dragged Olivia into the Maybach, rough and mercilessly. His brutal act hurt her.“John, it hurts.”“You know it h
After Olivia got into the car, Zyla handed her a sandwich.“Sis Liv, have something for breakfast. Have you taken your medicines?”“I’ve taken my breakfast. Thank you.”Zyla looked at Olivia as she said seriously, “Sis Liv, I’ve told you countless times that you don’t have to thank me.”Olivia froze for a moment and nodded. “Okay. What else did Mr. Quinton say?”“Nothing much. He asked me to tell you not to worry about Uncle Wallace’s matter. He will be by your side, and you’ll never go to prison.”“I trust him.”Zac was the best lawyer in Ocean City. She would not have to worry about him helping her out.However, Olivia knew this was not the end of Dorothy’s trap.Olivia wanted revenge, yet Dorothy was always on the winning side, which annoyed her.At the police station, Olivia got the opportunity to meet Aaron easily.Aaron looked haggard in just one night. His beard grew, and his eyes were bloodshot. Anyone could see he did not sleep that night.Aaron was not surprised t
At this moment, John, who was in Freeman Group’s office, smashed his phone on the ground in displeasure.“Are you sure she went to the police station?”Wes gulped and nodded. “Yes. Mrs. Freeman has just left the police station.”John sneered. She had gone to meet Aaron early in the morning. It was true love indeed!‘So, this is the so-called seventeen years of love?‘She treasured a man who didn’t even care about her?’John swept everything from the table to the ground. “Testify the matter and let Aaron leave.”“Mr. Freeman…” Wes bit his lips and hesitated.“What’s the matter?”“Erm…” Wes took a deep breath. “Mrs. Freeman had explained to the police that it was a misunderstanding and suggested locking Aaron up for two days.”‘A misunderstanding? Two days?’John was speechless. He had no idea if Olivia was trying to punish or protect Aaron.He felt rage flow through him like lava. Standing up, the first thing John did was kick the dustbin to vent his anger.It made him wond
Looking at them acting intimately, Olivia was heartbroken again.However, she still had to pretend to be okay with it.“Johnny, about Aaron…”Before Olivia could finish her sentence, John scoffed. “Are you still thinking about that garbage? Olivia, I didn’t know you could be so infatuated with someone.”Olivia was dumbfounded when she heard that and froze.‘What… is he talking about?’“Johnny, you’ve misunderstood. Aaron and I…”“Get out!”“Johnny…”John’s gaze was cold. “Are you planning to stand there and watch Dorothy and me acting intimately?”With that, he bent down to kiss Dorothy’s lips. However, before their lips could touch, Olivia had already darted out of the room, escaping from this situation. The door slammed shut behind her.Dorothy had been waiting for John’s lips to kiss hers, but John pushed her away and walked to the window.“Johnny?”Frustrated and disappointed, Dorothy stood up and walked over to him, hugging him around the waist from behind and pressin
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
