Chapter 504
“Don’t answer!”
Olivia rushed over to try to snatch it back. “Zac, don’t answer!”
How could Zac do that? He stood up with the phone in his hand. He looked at the phone, then at her.
“Zac.” Seeing his gloomy face, Olivia lay on the bed and begged. “Please, don’t answer…”
The next second, John’s voice roared from the phone.
“Where did you go? Why aren’t you in the apartment? Your illness…”
Before the person on the other end finished speaking, Zac hung up the phone and stared straight
at her
“Were you with John last night?”
At this point, Olivia knew that she could not hide anything anymore, so she lowered her head. She did
not dare to look at him.
“Yes. Yesterday, I had a fever and fainted in the hospital, so he took me home. I didn’t mean to hide it

“Olivia!”
Zac called out her name sternly. He walked to the bedside and looked at her with an expression
carrying mixed emotions, asking, “Why?”
He furrowed his brows tightly. He wanted to step forward and question her sharply, but when he saw
how weak she was, his heart softened again.
“Why did you lie to me yesterday?”
For so many years, he did not have the right to stay by her side to prevent John from finding her.
He thought that she still trusted him even if he was not around.
However, she was hiding so many things from him….
Zac felt a tightness in his chest. He never asked her to reciprocate his feelings. He only wanted to be
by her side to protect her and keep her company. However, he had suddenly learned that he did not
even qualify to be her protector.
He felt distressed as he looked at Olivia’s eyes, which had turned red from crying. He reached out to
help her wipe her tears away and said softly. “Forget it. I won’t ask you questions anymore.”
Immediately, he sighed and forced a smile. “Liv, if you want to go back to him, you can just tell me.
Don’t hide it from me.”
“No.”
Olivia grabbed his hand, bit her lips, and said, “It’s not what you think. John doesn’t know I’m Olivia. He
thinks I’m Phoebe, who happens to look a lot like Olivia.”
“What?”
“It’s true. I only communicate with him as Phoebe. I don’t want to repeat those same mistakes.”
Upon hearing this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He wanted to ask for details, but when he
remembered that John might come here, he helped her up.
“Okay, let’s discuss this later. The most important thing now is to take you away.”
She froze for a moment. “Take me away?”

anymore.”
“But Lyla…”
“Don’t worry, we will get Lyla later Don’t worry.
Olivia wanted to leave, but she really did not want to bother Zac anymore.
If John knew that Zac was here, would all their previous effort not be wasted?
“No.” Olivia pushed him away “Zac, buy me a plane ticket. I’ll go back by myself.
“What do you mean by that?”
“If John sees you, we’ll be exposed and… He will never forgive you. I don’t want to hurt you.”
Zac did not want to waste his breath with her, so he stuffed all her things into the suitcase before
leaning over to pick her up. Then, he dragged the suitcase and walked out.
“Zac!”
He paused and looked down at her. “Liv, I don’t know why you’re so wary of me, but promise me you’ll
get out of here, okay?”
After he said that, he seemed to be afraid of Olivia’s rejection, so he added, “Let’s at least go to
another hotel, okay?”
