Chapter 369
Zac regretted what he said immediately.
‘That was too impulsive. How could I say that?!
‘If she…”
“Sure.”
He thought he had misheard, but Olivia smiled at him right after. “As long as Mr. Quinton doesn’t feel
irritated by my weak body.”
Seeing Zac in a daze, she moved closer to him. “Are you regretting it already?”
“No, no…”
“Zac, I have no idea how much longer I’ll live. If I die, I’ll be more at peace with you taking care of my
brother rather than John.”
Olivia took a sip of the beer and smiled. “Plus, you can make lan earn money to support you in return
when he’s older. It’s a win-win situation.”
Hearing her words, Zac let out a sigh of relief. However, he was also a little disappointed.
“No problem. I’ll exploit him ruthlessly.”
The two smiled at each other and made another toast with the cans of beer in their hands.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia started to get dizzy and fell on the table after drinking three cans.
Zac, on the other hand, had sobered up. He gently nudged her. “Liv?”
He confirmed that she had fallen asleep after calling her a few times without getting a response.
He was afraid that she might catch a fever again, so he carried her back into the room and covered her
with a blanket properly before going back to the balcony.
Looking at the beer cans on the ground, Zac twitched the corner of his lips.
In fact, he was already satisfied. He could only continue being around her if he kept quiet about his
feelings.
If he actually came clean to her, she would definitely avoid him, knowing her personality.
Just after he finished cleaning up the rubbish, Olivia’s phone rang.
He was afraid that it might disturb her sleep and wanted to decline the call, but when he saw John’s
name, he could not resist picking it up.
“Hello.”
The person on the other side of the line spoke coldly the second he heard the wrong voice.
“Where’s Olivia?”
“She’s sleeping.”
“Pass her the phone.”
Zac hated the tone of orders immensely, so he said in dissatisfaction, “She’s unwell and only just fell
asleep. Call her tomorrow.”
Then, he hung up the call.
John had always been like this, demanding and autocratic. He was never a considerate person.
Back then, Zac would somewhat tolerate him.
However, now, watching how he had tortured Olivia without realizing his mistake, Zac could not endure it
anymore.
One could never be a victim again if one was once the culprit.
However, Zac did not expect to see John appear outside of his house half an hour later.
“What are you doing here?”
“Picking up my wife.”
Zac did not open the door. “Go home. I won’t let you in.”
Immediately, he heard John say, “Your father came looking for Olivia, and they didn’t have a pleasant
conversation.”
‘What?’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZac opened the door. “What are you talking about? What was the conversation about?”
Once the door was opened, two men in black pinned Zac onto the wall.
John glanced at him coldly. “You should ask your father that. After all, it was a private conversation
between them.”
“John! Let go of me! Liv has a fever. Don’t touch her!”
“Don’t touch her?” John punched him in the chest. “If I don’t touch her, you think that you get the right to?
Don’t forget, we haven’t divorced yet!”
“John!”
John ignored him, went straight to the room, and carried Olivia away.
Zac wanted to stop him, but the two bodyguards pinned him down, so he was unable to move.
In the end, he could only watch them leave in the dark.
In the car.
John sat in the backseat with Olivia in his arms. He reached out his slender fingers to check her
temperature.
She was indeed warm.
However, when he got closer and sniffed her, he could smell the alcohol.
‘What kind of fever is this?’
Suddenly, Olivia grabbed his sleeve and murmured, “Zac, I know that you don’t have an easy life either,
do you?”
