"Liv, how you’re so willing to give everything up right now scares me."
Ken advised softly. "We're with you. You’re not alone in the fight, so don’t push yourself too much.”
Olivia did not reply to him.
"John, advise her! It's really dangerous for her to think this way."
John glanced at Olivia and said, "Don't forget about Lyla, Sam, and your brother.”
When Olivia heard the names of those three, her body shook. She turned around and smiled. "It’s not like I’m going to receive a death sentence. Do you guys have to be so anxious about it?"
Ken knew how adamant she was since he was the same as well, so he did not say anything more and merely sighed.
After a short while, Ken and Zac got asked by others to follow them, leaving Olivia alone with John.
The atmosphere was a little tense, and a little solemn, it was like both of them were just waiting for each other to start talking.
‘Thanks for just now.”
Olivia broke the silence.
"Are you genuinely thanking me?”
"Of course. If it was not for you being observant, I probably would not have been able to escape unscathed.”
John smiled. "I told you I would never let you get hurt. Whatever I didn’t do before, I will do from now on.”
Olivia turned and looked at him shortly. The eyes of the man in front of her were murky and depthless, and she was always not able to understand the emotions within them.
"You'll help Zac too from now on, right?"
"Yes, because I want you to look at me more frequently, and also, if Zac is in charge of Quinton Group, it'll be beneficial to both myself and Ocean City."
Upon hearing that, Olivia smiled bitterly. "John Freeman, every time the way I feel about you changes a little bit, you immediately catch me off guard and show me your true colors once more.”
John did not avoid the topic. He picked up a glass of wine, passed it to her, and said, “You always called me a hypocrite back then, saying that I always had a mask on and that I was ingenuine, so I promised myself that I'd show you the most real version of me from now on."
Olivia took a sip of the wine and frowned slightly. "What wine did you give me? Why does it taste so strong?"
Then, she reached out and took another glass from the waiter's tray. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
John stopped her and said, “Let me do it."
The waiter's hand was trembling a little, causing Olivia to take a double take.
John took the remaining two glasses of wine from the tray and waved at the waiter to signal him to leave.
However, it was like the waiter was in a daze. He was still standing there unfazed.
"Are you not going to leave?"
Upon hearing John's low grunt, the waiter snapped out of his daze and nodded intently. "My apologies."
Watching the back of the waiter, who was scurrying away, Olivia narrowed her eyes and asked, "Do you think he seems a little suspicious?"
"He was probably frightened by what happened to the other waiter.”
Then, John passed a glass of wine to Olivia and said, ‘There you go, your favorite white wine."
Olivia took the glass from John and took a sip. “Hmm, not bad."
Then, she downed the entire glass.
John followed suit and drank a few sips of the wine before placing the glass aside.
After a short while, Olivia cradled her head and said, “I have a bit of a headache. Can you bring me to the lounge?"
"Sure."
Dorothy was sitting in a corner not too far away, and she witnessed everything.
After watching the pair enter the lounge, she smirked. This seemed to be getting more interesting than she thought.
This time, Zac and John would completely flip, and that was a way to kill many birds with one stone, was it not?
That b*tch, Phoebe James, was too unfortunately lucky to have gotten both men she could not have.
All she had was that face of hers, right?
It was a face that Dorothy was so familiar with she wanted to throw up every time she saw it. How could Olivia Larson still enjoy such luxuries even after she had passed?
Dorothy was upset, so painfully, unsettlingly upset!
This was certainly not enough!She would destroy that face, so it would disappear from the face of the earth forever!
