“You!”“Olivia, don’t be mad. I didn’t get into an accident, and I didn’t go looking for Johnny. Instead, I set a trap for you. You’re still in the palm of my hand, even if you get out of prison.Dorothy squatted and pulled on Olivia’s hair. She grinned and said, “How does it feel? Does it feel good?”“Dorothy, I’ll kill you!”Olivia roared and struggled to resist Dorothy. Then, she bit Dorothy’s arm.“Ahh! Are you a dog, Olivia?”Dorothy drew back her arm in pain.Olivia spat saliva at her and said in disgust, “The flesh of a vicious woman like you is sour and disgusting!”“What are you talking about?”“Dorothy, does Johnny know you’re so vicious? Aren’t you afraid your act will be exposed one day?”Dorothy scoffed. “Exposed? Johnny trusts every word I say and refuses to believe anything you say. So, which one of us do you think should be afraid?“I kindly advise you not to think about complaining, or I’ll make sure you regret it.”Dorothy did not have to remind her of tha
With that, Dorothy pushed Olivia to the ground and stepped on her slender hand with her high heels.Olivia gritted her teeth and struggled, but Dorothy was stepping on her hand so hard that she could not move at all. She had to grab her red high heels with her other hand.Dorothy tried to step on Olivia’s other hand but almost tripped because of Olivia.However, Dorothy’s heel had already wounded Olivia’s hand, making it bleed.“Olivia, look carefully. I’m the winner, and you’re the loser! You can’t even use your hands now. I’ll watch you try to design in the future.”With that, Dorothy took her legs off of her and said with a smirk, “Olivia, enjoy your prison life. I’m sure John will be admiring my child’s first steps by the time you get out of the prison.”Clutching her left hand, Olivia watched Dorothy leave.Olivia wanted to live and wanted to seek revenge. She could not stay in prison!She staggered as she stood up and asked the guard, “I want to meet John.”Then, she ret
Wes looked in the rearview mirror and wanted to say something. However, all he could do was nod.John was getting more suspicious of Olivia as his jealousy grew.Wes did not believe Olivia had cheated on John. However, it would only annoy John if he tried to speak up for Olivia, so it was better for him if he kept his mouth shut.When they arrived at the hospital, John immediately carried Olivia to the emergency room. It was the same doctor who had attended to them before.He glanced at the bloody woman on the bed and shook his head. “Mr. Freeman, there’s no point saving her again and again if you want her dead.”Then, he turned around and headed to the operation theater.After rescuing Olivia, the nurse pushed Olivia out of the operation theater. She rolled her eyes when she saw John. This man was worse than she previously thought.“Mr. Freeman, your wife is pregnant and very weak. If you don’t care for her, she will certainly miscarry.”Then, she looked at John’s calm express
She wanted to deny it, but John’s newfound gentleness made it seem like he was the old John again, which made her reluctant to walk away.She threw herself into John’s arms and cried, “Johnny, don’t you hate me anymore? Don’t you blame me?”He stroked her back gently. “Liv, forget it. Let’s forget everything, okay?”“How… about Dorothy? You said you wanted her to be Mrs. Freeman…”“No, Liv. I want to be with you during the final weeks you have in this world. Abort the child. It only makes you weaker.”At that moment, Olivia felt like she had traveled back two years.Her Johnny was back.She lowered her head and touched her belly, smiling sweetly, “Johnny, I want to give birth to a child for you. If I die, he can accompany you.”John’s heart melted. ‘She does love me, doesn’t she?’Someone was at the door, watching the scene in the ward enviously.She could not let this thing go on.‘Terminal illness?‘You’re pretending to have a terminal illness? Don’t even think about it!
Hearing the words ‘lung cancer’, John’s grip on Olivia’s neck tightened as though he wanted to break it.“She is not suffering from any terminal illness!”Dorothy pretended to be ignorant and lifted her hand, which the nurse had bandaged with plaster of paris. Then, she said worriedly, “The nurse just told me…”“Heh. That was this woman’s trick to win some sympathy.”John leaned forward and gritted his teeth as he said, “Olivia, your despicable act has only disgusted me more.”Dorothy dashed to them to stop John and beg. “Johnny, don’t make a scene here. You’ll strangle Liv to death. Let go now!”However, Dorothy did not exert much strength when she was ‘stopping’ John. She looked worried on the outside but was gloating on the inside.‘Olivia, you are still only a loser, after all!’Suddenly, Dorothy slipped. John saw that her right hand was about to touch the ground. Fearing that she might get injured, John released Olivia and stretched out his hand to catch Dorothy.“Dolly,
Olivia trembled with anger. She knew Dorothy was lying, but she had no proof.“Dorothy, you told me yourself! You told me about the car accident in jail this morning!”“I didn’t...” Dorothy hid in John’s arms and said cautiously, “Johnny, I’ve never been to the jail…”“You came, and I…”Before she could finish, John snapped, “That’s enough, Olivia. Haven’t you done enough? You couldn’t just lie about cancer and bribe the nurse, now you have to try to accuse Dolly?”“I didn’t lie or bribe anyone. I’m really suffering from lung cancer!”John threw the report in Olivia’s face. “See it for yourself. It’s written on the paper.”As Olivia shuddered, she crouched and picked up the crumpled paper.When she saw the word ‘pneumonia’, her legs turned to jelly, and she almost fell to the ground.She could not explain herself. She had no way to defend herself!“I didn’t… I didn’t lie, Johnny. Why don’t you believe me?”John looked at her coldly and emphasized each word he said, “I only b
Seventeen years?John’s arms, which were holding Dorothy, froze. He and Olivia had only known each other for four years. He had no idea where those seventeen years had come from.“Heh! You’re shameless. Seventeen years? What gave you the confidence to say something like that?”Olivia gasped. She felt empty in her heart, as though she had lost something important. It made it difficult for her to breathe.He had forgotten about her…When they met again, Olivia had never mentioned anything about it because she felt it was destiny. She thought he knew about it.However, until today, she did not know that all of that was just her wishful thinking.The teenager who promised to protect her 17 years ago was gone!Olivia sneered and backed away. Finally, she fell on the bed. “John, you’ve forgotten your promise. You promised me twice that you would protect me for the rest of your life, and you’ve broken your promise twice.”John felt heartbroken, but he could not tell why.However, he
Olivia was shocked. “What did you say?”She thought the doctor was keeping his promise by writing the pneumonia report. She did not expect it to be Dorothy who did this.Olivia grabbed the girl’s hand. “You said someone paid the doctor to write this report?”“Yes. Dorothy even paid the nurse to say that you paid me to lie and that I’m dishonest. That’s why your husband believed it.”‘So, that’s what happened…’Olivia sneered upon thinking how well Dorothy had planned everything out.The jail must have had no surveillance and witnesses when she visited, so everything she said made it seem like she was accusing Dorothy.‘Heh! What a kind woman Dorothy is!’“How stupid of me.”The girl did not understand. “Ms. Larson, you’re not stupid. That woman is shameless.”“No, I’m stupid.”If she were not stupid, she would not have been gradually worn down by Dorothy and John for the past two years. She was the only person who could defend herself now, and she could not defeat them alone
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
