Perhaps Olivia was being too emotional. Her lungs convulsed, and a metallic taste rose from her throat.

She was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth with her hands. She turned around and suppressed her cough painfully. Then, she swallowed the blood back down.

Upon seeing this, Ian’s pupils contracted slightly. “What’s wrong with you?”

He remembered that she coughed up blood in the cemetery yesterday as well. Was she sick?

Olivia wiped away her tears with the back of her hand. She pursed her lips and answered, “It’s okay. Just a little cough.”

“You coughed up blood yesterday. I saw it.”

When she heard that, Olivia trembled slightly. She felt a lump in her throat, and she could not help but shed tears again.

It turned out that her younger brother was still worried about her.

“Maybe there’s something wrong with my lungs, but it’s nothing serious.”

Seeing that she was refusing to speak, Ian did not ask any more questions. After that, he turned and went upstairs to go t

    “Yeah.”John took the opportunity to sit right across from Olivia. His eyes were like pools as he looked at her and said, “Cook me a bowl of that too.”Olivia was stunned and caught by surprise.John was being unexpectedly nice. That could only mean…Olivia looked down at her own bowl of noodles and pushed it toward John. “If you don’t mind, take this, then. I haven’t touched it yet.”“I don’t mind.”He slurped up a mouthful of noodles and swallowed slowly. He looked at Olivia and said, “It’s still the same familiar taste. I like it.”That made her more uneasy.What was he trying to do?She immediately looked at Ian and could not help but be curious. Was John putting on a show for him?Once that thought was born, Olivia stuck with it. She felt a little suffocated.However, she did not want to expose John, so she turned back to go to the kitchen to whip up another bowl of noodles. This was the first time in two years she had gotten to eat a meal with her brother, and she did

    “Isn’t that who you are?”Olivia was so angry she laughed. How could this man behave like he was in the right in such a ridiculous manner?“You sent Dorothy out of town while I was in a coma to protect her because you were afraid that I’d get my revenge on her and kill her, right?”John shuddered.“No.”“No? Hah, who’d believe you?” Olivia looked at him coldly. “John Freeman, you said so yourself. You won’t let Dorothy Ellis die.”She was so sure that it was his doing.There was no one else besides John that would and could protect Dorothy Ellis like this.“Olivia Larson, do you still want to see your brother?” John was enraged. ‘Same threat again?’ Olivia thought. She snickered. Every time he lost in a verbal fight with her, he would start threatening her. This was clearly a sign of guilt!“Would you allow me to see him anyway?”“That depends on your behavior.”Olivia did not have much hope when it came to John, so she forced a smile that was even uglier than her sobbing ex

    Both Olivia and Ken were not expecting that, so they both froze on the spot.Olivia was the first to snap back to her senses. She grabbed Zyla’s hand, checked her wounds, and said, “Zy, you’re still not completely recovered yet. How could you do something so taxing?”“I’m okay, Sis Liv.” Zyla’s voice softened. “How about you? Did Jerk John hurt you?!”She shook her head. “I’ll tell you more after we get back to the ward. Let me look at your hand first.”“I’m fine, really. He merely dislocated my arm, so all I need to do now is get a doctor to pop it back into place for me. That’s all.”Zyla shook her hands and laughed. “Look! I’m fine!”“What about your chest? I saw blood just now in the afternoon.”Olivia was worried, so she pulled Zyla into her ward and said, “Let me take a look.”“I just busted the wound open, but I’ve gotten the nurse to give me a new dressing. You won’t be able to see anything,”Then, Zyla’s eyes fell on Ken. “What are you still doing here? Do you want a

    After about an hour, a delivery bike arrived at the door of Larson Residence.John was on the phone in his car when it happened. He watched the delivery man open the container on his bike, take out two bags of groceries, and then ring the doorbell beside the gate.Quickly, the door opened, and the delivery man jogged in.John smiled. It seemed like Olivia was going to cook up a storm today.Wes’ voice came from the other end of the line. “Sir, I’ve sent you the details. We need to attend a meeting out of town tomorrow. Please don’t forget about it.”“Okay.”“Sir, the incident from two years ago that you got me to investigate might be a little complicated.”John barked coldly, “What about it?”“We have all the relevant video recordings from the incident, but the only witness, Cole Zachary, is dead, so there’s a lot of things we can’t seek confirmation on.”What happened two years ago had always been a thorn in John’s side.Even if he felt like he had wronged Olivia, he could n

    “Why are you here?”Olivia was stunned for a moment before pushing John away. “Let go of me.”John freed her, walked towards the bar area, and asked, “Anything I can do to help?”Then, he took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and started taking out the vegetables from the bag.“I’ll clean the prawns. What else needs cleaning?”The scene that was playing out before Olivia shocked her to the core.She had seen this side of John before, but it had been two years since then.Back then, they would cook together.He would hug her from behind, rest his head on her shoulders, and flirt with her in whispers, making her lose focus as she cooked.Now, it felt like it had been a lifetime since that. The thought left her dazed. They had already gone their separate ways, so why was he playing the same role he used to play in the past once more?Was he trying to move her heart again?No, she could not be fooled! She could not be tricked once more!Olivia bit her lips, tried to suppr

    Olivia broke free from John’s embrace. “Start cooking. Ian will be hungry soon.”John hugged her even tighter and got close to her ears to say in a low voice, “Why don’t you make some vegetable stew?“You don’t like celery.”“I do now.”Olivia was a little speechless. She had no idea why he was so obsessed with vegetable stew and insisting she make something now that he never ate back then. Then again, she did not want to pester him about such small matters. She nodded in agreement since she had already bought the ingredients. “Alright. I’ll cook it for you.”He let go of her and continued washing the vegetables in the kitchen. ‘Why did his palate suddenly change ?’‘Is it because of Dorothy?’Olivia felt uncomfortable. Every breath she took was as painful as a needle prick. She could never understand why their love was so fragile. Was it because they had started loving each other too impulsively back then?No matter what, the past would continue to be the past, and it wo

    The meal was exceptionally quiet and peaceful, which made Olivia feel like she was dreaming. After dinner, Ian went back upstairs.Olivia frowned when she saw him closing the door. She did not get the chance to talk to him.John stole a glance at her and started to clear the dishes. “I’ll clean up.”Olivia was slightly shocked but she did not object to it. She went upstairs.She knocked on the door. “Ian, can I come in?”“Wait a minute.”A few minutes later, he opened the door. “What is it?”Olivia looked inside and chuckled. “Can I come in and have a seat?”He hesitated for a bit but finally nodded.After entering, she looked around. Her brother's room used to be decorated in a cartoon style, but now, it was very simple and sleek with only black, white, and gray tones.“What do you want to talk about? Are you trying to frame Dolly again?”Olivia felt a piercing pain in her heart, and she frowned as she spoke. “Ian, I know you’ve gotten very close to Dorothy over these t

    Olivia’s heart was beating fast. She was afraid that John might see something he should not. He flipped through the diary and suddenly stopped at a random page.After a few seconds, he closed the diary and threw it on the ground hard. Then, he asked coldly, “Olivia, have you slept with Aaron Summers before?”This question left her dumbfounded.Her diary was mostly filled with typical girly thoughts, and all of them were related to John, so where had Aaron come from?“John, what nonsense are you talking about?”“It’s clearly written in your diary. How dare you ask me! You’re too much.”‘Too much?’‘Which part of me is too much?’“It’s just a teenager’s diary. Why are you so worked up?”After saying that, Olivia picked up the diary, brushed the dust off it, and put it back on the shelf. “Also, the person in it…”Before she managed to finish her sentence, John pulled her into his arms and clenched his teeth. “Olivia Larson, remember, you’re the wife of John Freeman!”‘How can

    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.

    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
