Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman's Indifferent Sinner Wife

Chapter 705

On the way to Quinton Group, Zac noticed Olivia frowning the entire journey and looking apprehensive. He joked. “Liv, we’re only going to Quinton Group, not the execution grounds. You don’t have to be so nervous.”

“I’m not.”

Zac reached out to unfurrow her eyebrows. He laughed. “Your eyebrows are so tightly knitted together and you’re still claiming you’re not nervous?”

Olivia rubbed the space between her eyebrows. “Am I?”

‘Yeah, you don’t have to worry. He won’t do anything to me.”

“But…”

Back then, Jimmy asked someone to run Zac over with a car because he was unwilling to marry Dorothy as per his orders. If Zac went to ask for his shares now, wouldn’t he offend Jimmy even more?

“No!”

Olivia grabbed Zac. “We should have planned this. If we barge in like this, I worry that we’ll provoke your father and he’ll kill…”

“Kill?”

Olivia bit her lip and did not know what to say.

Zac smiled at her. “Are you worried that Jimmy will kill me?”

Olivia’s pupils constricted and she nodded. “Yeah.”

“I know he planned the accident.”

‘You do?’

Olivia blamed herself. “I was horrible at pretending. That’s why you figured it out…”

“It’s not because of you. Wilbur found out too, and he should have found out at the same time as Ken.”

“Are you not mad?”

Zac smiled coldly. “I should have guessed it long ago, so that’s why I don’t feel anything for it. He only cares about himself and was even willing to use my mother. So, I don’t think it’s so surprising that he wants to kill me.”

“But you still want to go ask for the shares? He won’t give them to you.”

“I know.”

Zac rolled down the window and chuckled lightly. “I know he’s behind the accident. That’s why I want to go ask him for the shares.

“Back then, I thought he’d leave me alone if I stayed away from him. That way, I won’t have to keep going against him.

“However, reality told me that he will only force me into things more and more.” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

After he said that, he held Olivia’s hand. “I should thank you. You showed me that I was just running away this entire time.”

Once he said that, Olivia knew he must already have a plan. She pursed her lips and said, “I will support you no matter what you do.”

“It’s so nice to have you around. You’ve given me a lot of confidence.”

“What do you need me to do later?”

‘You don’t have to do anything. You just need to push me.”

Quinton Group.

The pair took the elevator to the top floor. Then, Olivia pushed Zac to the CEO’s office, but they were stopped by the secretary.

“Please wait. Have you made an appointment?”

Olivia pointed at Zac. “Does Zac need to make an appointment to see his father?’

The secretary’s expression remained unchanged. “I’m sorry, everyone in this office needs to make an appointment to see Mr. Quinton. Plus, he’s in a meeting now, so if you want to see him, you should wait.”

Olivia scanned the door. “You’re asking US to wait at the door?”

‘Yes, this is a company rule.”

‘You…”

Zac patted her hand. “Pheebs, let’s go there to wait for my father.”

‘Zac…”

Zac shook his head at her to tell her to stop speaking.

For lack of a better option, Olivia could only push him to a waiting area beside them. “Why are you obeying a secretary?”

“I’ve never worked here. Plus, I’m also a cripple, so, of course they will disrespect me.”

“But…”

Zac whispered something in her ears and then comforted her softly. “I’m fine. I’m just worried you’ll be upset.”

“I’m fine. I just can’t stand them treating you like that.”

“Honey.”

Olivia was stunned when he called her that. She stared at him blankly.

Zac smirked when he saw her reaction. “I just wanted to see your reaction. You’re so cute.”
