Chapter 345
During breakfast, Olivia sneaked a few glances at John but did not see anything unusual.
‘Did he not hear me?’
She could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Everything was fine as long as he did not find out.
After breakfast, John handed her a bag. “Change into the new clothes.”
Olivia wanted to say no but thought she had to take lan to school later, so she took it.
“Thank you.”
She returned to the room only to find that John had bought a long black dress. There was also a
necklace inside.
She smiled wryly at the sight of them.
She could not figure out why John was doing this.
Did he think they could return to the way they used to be by giving her things as consolation after
hurting her?
After changing into the clothes, Olivia put her previous clothes in the bag and took them with her.
After she got out, she saw John putting one hand in his pocket and looking at her with a half-smile.

Just as she was about to say something, lan poked his head out and shouted a little impatiently.
“Are we leaving or not? I’m late for class.”
“Coming.”
Olivia came to herself, put on her coat, and followed lan to the backseat.
“Sit in the front with me.”
“John…”
She wanted to refuse him but met his deep eyes as soon as she turned around. She got a little scared,
so she could only sit obediently in the front passenger seat.
The car was quiet all the way.
“lan, I forgot to take you to the hospital yesterday. Are your injuries okay?”
Olivia turned around to look at lan and said with a frown, “Why don’t I have a look?”
“No, the blood is all Zayn’s.”
Knowing lan was stubborn, she could not force him and could only say, “If you’re not feeling well, you
can tell your teacher or call me, okay?”
“Okay, got it.”
lan got out of the car and ran off once they reached Ocean City No.1 Junior High School. Olivia tried to
follow him, but John grabbed her.
“Where are you going?”
“We haven’t taken care of yesterday’s incident. I have to talk to the teacher.”
“Olivia, is lan all you care about?”
Olivia was upset and snapped, “You can ignore lan, but I’m his sister. I can’t ignore him. I’ve been
absent for two years and don’t want to be absent again.”
The look in John’s eyes changed slightly, and he let go of her hand. “Do you hate me?
“Yes, I hate you. Can’t I hate you for ignoring lan?”
“I…”
Before John could speak, Olivia opened the car door and glanced coldly at him. “Mr. Freeman, I don’t
think we need to start over. Ian is my responsibility from now on. You don’t have to worry about him
anymore.”
With that said, she slammed the car door and walked toward the school.

The Milky Way seemed to be between him and Olivia, and he could never cross it.
Olivia went straight to yesterday’s office.
“Ms. York, I’m sorry about yesterday. What did Zayn say?”
Ms. York immediately stood up at the sight of her and shook her head helplessly.” Ms. Larson, the
Yeager family has some power in Ocean City.
“lan started it anyway. The Yeager family isn’t going to let it slide.”
With that said, Ms. York cautiously asked, “Ms. Larson, why don’t you apologize to Mrs. Yeager and
stop it from blowing up?”
“Ms. York, I know lan was wrong to start the fight, but I can’t apologize after what Zayn said or what
Mrs. Yeager did.”
“I know…” Ms. York hung her head low. “But I’m afraid lan will get a demerit if this gets to the school
board.”
Olivia smiled. “You’re a good teacher. Thank you.
“How about this? Give me Zayn’s hospital address. I’ll make it easier for you to talk to them.”
An apology was out of the question, but there was no way she would let lan get a demerit.
