Zac had many books in the study room arranged on the bookshelf.

However, most of them were related to law, and some were about economics and finance. Olivia already felt a headache come on just looking at the titles of the books.

After a while, she finally found a novel on the bookshelf.

Whilst retrieving the novel, the book above it accidentally fell on the ground as well.

Olivia bent down and picked it up. It was a popular foreign novel, so she flipped through a few pages.

However, as soon as she opened the book, she saw a letter sandwiched between the pages, with the words [To Liv] written on it.

‘For me?

‘From who?’

Out of curiosity, she placed the book aside and started reading the letter.

The more she read, the more she felt weird about it. Chills ran down her spine.

This was the letter that Jess wrote for her before she passed away.

‘Why is Jess’s letter to me with Zac?

‘Why did Zac never give me this letter…’

This caused her to recall the other night. Thoughts sud

    Olivia suddenly laughed while crying. “How ironic! His mother died for me, but he treats me as his lifesaver.”She laughed louder and louder, then suddenly went silent.‘I killed Noah and got Jess killed, but I still met Sam and became his godmother.‘If Sam knew the truth, he would definitely kill me, right?‘But does he even need to do that?‘I hate myself enough!’She really wanted to scold Zac, scold him for being indifferent, for being bloodthirsty, for being unkind, but...‘He did everything to save me.’She looked up and took a deep breath, then looked back down at Zac. “Zac Quinton, I mistook you as a gentleman and a warm man. You’re just the same as John.”That being said, she bit her lips and simply wiped off her tears. “You'd rather hire someone to pull an act just to divorce me, I guess I won’t be able to talk you through this…”She paused. She pursed her lips, trying her best to control her tone. “Let’s divorce as you wish.”She then walked around Zac and ran ou

    She did not manage to fulfill any of Jess’s wishes.She could’ve reached out to Sam four years ago, but she got there too late.As for the daughter… Fred told her that she had passed away four years ago.How could she face Jess when she did not even manage to protect her children?Suddenly, she remembered the scene of both of them being stuck in the fire.She collapsed on the floor as she had difficulties breathing. Jess held her up and tried to chase the smoke away while calling her name. “Liv, don’t sleep, or else you will lose everything.“Liv, don’t sleep! Open your eyes.”Olivia did not respond at the time.‘So Jess already knew that she was going to die at that time.‘What was she thinking at that moment?’She tried her best to remember and recall what Jess said before she passed out.However, the tide approached her feet before she could remember.“Ms. James.”A voice suddenly came from her back. “Ms. James?”Olivia turned over blankly and saw Wade standing in fr

    Olivia was a little shocked. She thought it would be a happy ending, yet it ended… pathetically.Instead of answering her question, Milo put a sugar cube in Olivia’s coffee and said, “I made up the rest of the story. The story of the father and son has not ended yet.”Olivia was in a puzzle. “Why did you tell me this story?” “I just happened to feel a little emotional upon hearing it. Why does the son hate his father so much? I wouldn’t know what to do if my son also hated me like that.”“I don’t think the story would end like how you think, sir. Maybe the son will realize his father loves him, and their misunderstanding will be resolved.”Milo lifted his eyebrows. “Do you really think so?”Olivia nodded. “I prefer my version of the story over your guess. No conflict can’t be resolved between a father and son unless…”“Unless what?”“Unless...” Olivia gulped and said, “Unless the father killed the son’s mother, and the son happened to see it. Otherwise, why would he hate his f

    Elegance Gardens.After Olivia left, Zac sat in his study and did not move.He wanted to divorce her, to make her hate him so she would leave him alone and never care about the Quinton family’s affairs again.However, that was not what he wanted deep down.Zac did not want her to think he was a devil or a murderer.He had sworn to hide it from her for the rest of his life because he did not want her to hate him.Besides, he knew her too well.She would hate him, but she would hate herself even more.No! He did not want that…Ever since the night he lost his temper, it had been difficult for him and Olivia to be on good terms again because he could not be magnanimous anymore.Then, he thought of using this and asked Jamie to help him put on an act. He tried to deceive Olivia and make her leave.He would help her get her revenge. All he wanted was for her to be happy.However, now…There was no going back, and she would never look for him again.Zac’s hands trembled upon th

    Meanwhile, Olivia was in Time Bar.Her face was pale as she sat by the counter. “Give me a glass of wine.”“Sure.”The bartender looked up and recognized who it was.“Boss, do you want to go to the private room behind? It’s quieter there.”Olivia shook her head. “No. Just get me a bottle of whiskey.”The bartender also knew how much Olivia could drink and advised, “Boss, you will get drunk easily. Please don’t drink too much.”“Cut the crap!” Olivia glared at him coldly. “I’ll fire you if you talk nonsense again!”“Okay. I’ll pour the whiskey for you.”Olivia leaned against the counter and scoffed at the men and women enjoying themselves around her.After Milo left just now, she sat by the beach for a long time.Looking at the empty beach made her feel lonelier, sadder, and more depressed.She wanted to go somewhere warmer to disperse her disappointment.However, she could not return to any places she knew. She thought of this bar when she could not think of anywhere else

    What was this woman trying to do?She was leaning in toward an outsider and was not even afraid that the man would take advantage of her!Just as he was about to stop the man, Olivia suddenly pushed the man away. She leaned against the counter and said to the bartender, “Call the police to arrest him! Tell them he harassed me!”“Okay.” The bartender immediately called the police.The man flared up upon seeing this. “You leaned on me and even drank the drinks I bought you, yet you want to call the police to arrest me now?”Olivia was already a little drunk, but her mind was still clear. She picked up a beer bottle and smashed it against the counter. Then, she pointed the broken end at the man. “What did you just say? I leaned on you?”The man was startled. “What are you trying to do? Are you trying to kill me? I’m calling the police!”“Call the police, then.”Olivia huffed and scolded the man. “What makes you think you have the right to call the police? I hate it when others lie

    “You are drunk. Come with me.”Olivia shoved off the man’s hand and stared at him coldly. “How can you say such a thing?“John, everyone can stop me, but not you! Don’t you remember who caused all this? It was you! Why do you have to pretend to be nice now?”John’s hand froze in midair. He looked at her helplessly and sighed. Then, ignoring Olivia’s rejection, he carried her and walked to the private room at the end of the corridor.“Let go of me! I’m going to call the police if you keep doing this!”“You can call the police! I’ll wait here for the police.”“You!”John placed her on the sofa when they were in the private room.“I know you’re in a bad mood, and I won’t stop you from venting, Liv.”Then, he handed Olivia the beer bottle on the table and pointed at his head. “Smash it on me. I won’t stop you from doing it or hit you back. You can hit me until you feel satisfied.”“Do you think I won’t dare to hit you?”“Do it.”John got down on one knee to make things easier f

    Perhaps it was because Olivia’s obsession seemed to reduce since she had vented her anger, so Olivia gradually dozed off in his arms.Looking at the peacefully sleeping woman in his arms, John touched her face gently.“Liv, trust me for once, okay?”Then, he put her on the sofa and removed the coat to cover her body. Afraid she might feel uncomfortable, he put her head on his lap. He heaved a sigh of relief when he noticed she was breathing evenly before pulling out his tie from her grip and laying back on the sofa’s backrest.‘Liv, that man who’s pretending to be Mr. M is a bad guy. He’s up to no good. Don’t believe what he says!’However, he knew things might turn out differently if he was frank, and Olivia might trust Milo even more.He squinted his eyes at the thought.That man was pretending to be Mr. M to get closer to Olivia. It made John wonder was that man after, him or Olivia?Could he be the mastermind behind Dorothy, whom Olivia mentioned?Who the hell was the guy?

    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
