Chapter 37
John stood by the window with his back leaning against the door and one hand in his pocket. Olivia could
feel the cold aura around him even if she could not see his
expression.
Olivia patted Zac, asking him to put her down. Then, she leaned against the door and took a deep breath
before shouting, “What else do you want to know, Johnny?”
Her voice trembled. She was afraid.
Zac felt sorry for her, even though he did not know exactly why. Olivia must have faced similar situations.
countless times before.
John turned around and stared at her coldly. He sneered and said, “Olivia, I thought you would learn your
lesson after getting seriously injured, but you’ve disappointed me.”
Olivia held onto Zac’s arm as she limped into the ward.
Watching John approaching her, she held her breath and waited for the ‘punishment’ he would give her.
However, the man did not lay a finger on her this time. Instead, he dragged Zac out of the ward with him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith her support gone, Olivia stumbled. Fortunately, the bed was in front of her, so she did not fall.
She watched John drag Zac out of the room. The door
closed behind them. The only person left in the ward was her, and she frowned.
Olivia wondered if John would bully Zac.
Zac was now involved in their private affairs because of her…
Outside the ward, John dragged Zac to a corner of the staircase where no one was around.
“Zac, do you plan to fight me?”
These two had grown up together. They had been best friends, closer than biological brothers throughout
the
years.
However, Zac was now helping Olivia.
John did not believe what Dorothy told him. Zac and Olivia were not stupid enough to cheat on him on
the peninsula.
However, Zac’s involvement in their matters angered John. It was as if his best friend had stolen his
favorite toy.
“Johnny, I’ve never interfered in your personal life. When you married Olivia three years ago and took
Dorothy as your mistress two years ago, I didn’t ask you anything about them.
“But I think you should stop all this nonsense, Johnny.”
Zac did not want to ruin his friendship with John over this matter, but he could not stand by and watch
him torture someone without speaking up.
Olivia was already dying. It was pointless torturing her
like this.
John glanced at him coldly. “Stay away from this matter if you’re still my friend, or I won’t forgive you for
this.”
“Dorothy is not the woman you think she is. Don’t be fooled by her. Not a word she said on the peninsula
was true!”
John lifted his hand and pinned Zac against the wall by grabbing onto his neck.
John had been putting up with this for a long time!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe suppressed his anger at first to give Zac a chance, but he still chose to interfere.
“Zac, ask yourself, are you in love with Olivia?
“If Dorothy hadn’t been in the house, you two would’ve really kissed on the sofa, right?”
“Heh, Johnny, you’ve never suspected Dorothy, have you? You believe every word she tells you.”
The trust between these two men should not be that fragile…
However, the thought of Zac having different intentions
while helping his beloved Olivia corrupted John’s mind. He could not accept that Zac liked the woman he
loved.
That was how overbearing, bossy, and paranoid John was.
To him, Olivia was his, and only he could touch her. Anyone who else touched her should die.
John put more strength into his grip, and his gaze turned cold as he threatened Zac. “Zac, this is the last
time I warn you. I won’t be so merciful the next time!”
He would have killed Zac if not for their brotherly bond. He wanted to give him a second chance.
John released his grip and turned to grasp the doorknob of the stairwell.
“John, she’s dying. Set her free.”
