Olivia waited by the emergency room door for almost an hour. Before the operation was over, she became more flustered as time went by.

'Nothing can happen to Kate!'

Suddenly, her phone rang. She thought it was Ken and picked it up without looking.

"Why aren't you here yet?"

However, she heard a familiar yet strange voice as soon as she asked.

"Ms. James, I should be asking you this. The auction is about to start. Why aren't you here yet?"

Olivia paused and looked down at the caller ID before pressing her lips together in embarrassment. "Sir, I'm sorry. Something happened to my friend, and she's still in the emergency room, so I forgot. I think I can't make it today. I'm really sorry..."

She expected Milo to be angry, but Milo unexpectedly chuckled.

"Ms. James, I noticed you have been strangely afraid of me since we met. It's as if I will eat you. It's a big deal if a friend is in trouble, and it's normal that you can't come. You don't have to apologize to me."

    The doctor came out and said a lot, but Olivia did not hear most of it. All she knew was that Kate was all right this time, but what would happen in the future was unknown.When she accompanied Kate back to the ward, she happened to pass by the lobby and saw the TV.The TV anchor was reading the news. "The Quinton family's mistress, Dorothy, was involved in a car accident in Central at 3 PM. The cause of the accident is still under investigation, and it hasn't been ruled out that it was caused by someone. Ms. Jameson has been sent to the hospital..."'Dorothy had a car accident?'Olivia immediately recalled the time Ken had just arrived and linked them together.'He didn't do it, did he?'After settling Kate in, she was still a little worried, so she ran into the hallway to call Ken."Ken, where are you?""The office.""Okay, I'll come and see you."After Olivia hung up, she ran straight to Ken's office. Ken gulped when she opened the door."Did you not hit me enough earlier

    "So? So you just mentioned divorce out of the blue? Let her worry about you alone?"John's voice was cold. "Zac, don't you feel bad for doing this to her?""I've signed the divorce papers. If I were you, I would take this opportunity to take her away."With that said, Zac hung up.Wes happened to walk in. John tossed his phone aside and asked with a grim expression, "Does Quinton Group have any issues lately?"Wes shook his head. "No, it's been pretty calm lately. Aside from Dorothy's car accident, nothing happened.""A car accident?""Yeah. Someone might have tampered with the brakes and caused her to hit a utility pole, but she seemed to have only gotten a minor injury. It's nothing serious."John narrowed his narrow eyes. "Could you look into Quinton Group and find out who Olivia met the other day?""They're good at counter-reconnaissance. I looked through all the surveillance footage and found only a blurry picture."Wes found a screenshot of the surveillance footage and

    Olivia patted her on the back. "Silly girl, how are you alone? Your parents, Ken, and I are here for you.""But my brother..."Olivia did not know whether to tell her about Ken avenging her.She eventually fell silent momentarily and only said, "Ken's only pretending to be unconcerned. He cares about you. Maybe he doesn't know how to face you.""Is that so?""Yeah, it must be."Olivia helped Kate wipe away her tears and asked, "Kate, have you... have you thought about telling him sometime?"Kate paused and quickly shook her head. "No, no, don't tell him. He'll only avoid me more if he finds out.""You're a patient. I'm not supposed to tell you this, but..."Olivia had mixed emotions. Many emotions crowded her chest, making her feel like she was going to explode."The doctor said you suffered internal injuries and wasn't sure if you had any other problems. I'm only afraid you'll never be able to tell him the truth in the future.""Is my illness... that serious?"Olivia shook

    She got into Milo's car after leaving the hospital."Sir, where are we going? There's a cafe nearby, and it's pretty good. Why don't...""I made a reservation over there. The environment's nicer."He cut Olivia off with one sentence."Oh, it turns out you already have plans, Sir."Milo turned around to glance at her. "Do you think I don't give you any choice every time?""No, I just mentioned it for fun."The seeds of this discomfort had been planted deep into Olivia's heart.She even had an idea.'John isn't Mr. M. What if this isn't him either?'Perhaps Mr. M is someone else. Is this man also deceiving me?'Once this thought occurred to her, it made her more alert.Milo was aware of her alertness.When they arrived at the place, Milo took her into a private room, ordered a cup of coffee, and said, "I wanted to see you today about your husband, Mr. Zac Quinton.""Zac? What's wrong with Zac? Is something wrong?""He's fine, but there's been a lot of rumors recently that

    John clutched her slender waist so tightly that her face was pressed against his chest."Ask your boss to meet me.""I'm sorry, but he has already left."John's eyes were solemn as he gazed coldly at the man in black. "Really? Did something come up, or is he afraid to see me?"The man in black did not answer the question but repeated, "Sir, please let go of the lady. Or else, don't blame me for being rude."However, before the man in black could move, John's men had him pinned to the ground.John looked at him condescendingly. "Tell your boss not to be so sneaky. If he wants to see her, he has to go through me first."With that said, he leaned over, picked Olivia up, walked out of the hotel, and threw her into the car."John, are you out of your mind? What does who I see have to do with you? Let go of me!"However, without even glancing at her, John slammed the door shut and locked her in the Maybach, letting her knock on the window.A few minutes later, Wes ran out of the ro

    On her way back to Elegance Gardens, she received a call from Milo."Doyle just said someone dragged you away. Who was it? Where are you? Are you safe?"Olivia felt guilty when she heard he was concerned about her."Sir, I'm sorry.""Why did you apologize to me?"Olivia pressed her lips. "My friend misunderstood you and followed me. I wonder if your staff member got hurt? If he is, I'll pay for his medical bills.""Doyle's fine. I'm only worried about you." Milo paused. "Is that man a friend of yours?"Olivia was silent for a moment before saying with a nod, "Yeah, it's someone I know."How was she friends with John?However, she could not tell Milo that it was her ex-husband, could she? Therefore, she could only give a perfunctory answer.Fortunately, Milo did not ask more questions about their relationship."Ms. James, was the man who took you away Mr. Freeman, who's famous in Ocean City?""Well, yes.""Do you know Mr. Freeman well?"Olivia could not help feeling wary.

    'Orientation ceremony?'Olivia instantly snapped back to reality. She quickly opened the calendar to check the date, only to realize that today was Ian's orientation ceremony.When Sam was kidnapped, she promised on the boat that she would attend it.However, so much had been going on recently that she forgot about it..."Ian..."Olivia covered her mouth, flustered. "Ian, I'm sorry... I'm so sorry. Where are you? I'll come and see you, okay?""What's the point of coming now? You always do this. You only apologize afterward. Can you really make up for your absence by apologizing?"Olivia could not retort to Ian's sentence.She was not a good sister.Especially since the incident six years ago, she had been absent from Ian's life, so it was no wonder Ian had so many complaints."Ian, give me another chance, okay?""Forget it. You care more about other people. You can keep them company. I'm calling to tell you that from now on, I don't have a sister. So don't torture yourself a

    The doctor motioned for Olivia to calm down. "Calm down. It's nothing serious. It's just appendicitis. All she needs is a small surgery."Hearing this, she breathed a sudden sigh of relief. "Appendicitis? Is it really just appendicitis?""Yes, it's really just appendicitis. Ms. James, your aunt is much healthier than Ms. Lucas."The remark made Olivia not know whether to laugh or cry.Either way, she was relieved that Mrs. Simmons was alright.Olivia was worried about Mrs. Simmons's health, so the doctor scheduled an emergency surgery for that night.After the surgery, Olivia and Sam accompanied Mrs. Simmons to a private ward on the top floor.Mrs. Simmons was a little reluctant as she frowned. "Miss, why do you want me to stay alone in such a luxurious hospital ward? It's a waste of money. Don't...""Mrs. Simmons, have you forgotten that this is Ken's hospital? It's free. Don't worry about money. Besides, it's more convenient for me to stay here with you, isn't it?""No, you'

    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
