Chapter 480
If he remembered correctly, her parents died in an airplane crash when she was young. She should not
remember much about it as she was still a kid at that time and was not on the plane. Could it be
because she missed them too much?
When they returned to the Lodge family, she did not show an intense yearning for her parents. Why did
she suddenly faint today? Could the scene where Olivia‘s mother was hurt be the trigger?
It looked like she had a fragile heart!
“S–Something happened,” He gasped loudly and hid in a messy room to make a phone call. The room
was filthy, the lights were not turned on, and slivers of moonlight shone coldly on the floor.
“What are you panicking about? Didn‘t you say that you‘ll deal with it?!” The receiver used a voice

“I did not expect it to be such a big fire. Moreover, there were so many people in that old building.” His
hands and feet could not stop shaking even though he hid in the darkest corner.
He was genuinely surprised by how many people were inside. He assumed there were not many
people living in
that old building. It was well past midnight and dark as many homes did not have any lights on. How
come there were so many people?!
When he hid in the crowd and saw all the bodies that were carried out, he almost had a mental
breakdown hearing the wailing and cries around him.
“Id*ot!” The receiver scolded him, “I asked you to light a small fire to scare them. Who asked you to
light a big fire?! Do you still want your life? .
“I–I... You are the one who asked me to set the fire. I–I‘m at most an accomplice!” He said in a
trembling voice as he tried to calm himself. That‘s right. He was just following orders and was not the
mastermind. He was not to blame even if the police found him.
The receiver sneered at his words and said gloomily,” Really? Do you have any evidence?”
“Don‘t tell me that these phone calls are evidence. Do you think the police will believe you? We‘d never
even met!” His words turned the man‘s face pale.
That‘s right. They always contacted each other online and by phone. All of this could be faked. He
thought this was another trivial matter similar to theft or minor disturbances he had caused. This turned
out to be bigger than he had anticipated.
“I–I...”
“Don‘t panic!” The voice from the phone sounded like the

He licked his dry lips and thought about it. Then he shook his head, “No, I don‘t think so.” “Don‘t
assume! You need to be sure. That place was an old community and didn‘t have surveillance cameras.
You won‘t be found out as long as no one saw you. It‘s common for the old wires to short–circuit. They
might not find out about what you‘re doing!”
The caller‘s words brought assurance to him. He carefully considered the situation and felt it made
sense, “Yes! It‘s due to the old wires that short–circuited. I don‘t believe that it‘s my fault. It’s not related
to me!” “That‘s right!” The receiver laughed, “Still, you‘d better not stay in the city for now. You should
go to another city and hide for a while. I have deposited some money into your account, and it should
be sufficient for you to spend for quite some time! This phone number won‘t be used anymore.
Remember that, and don‘t contact me!”
“Wait, I...” The call was hung up before he could finish his sentence.
