Chapter 564
Olivia was a little stunned, but she feigned calmness before asking, “My brother has gone to the beach
for a vacation, Mr. Freeman. What danger could he be in?”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes.”
With that, John did not say a word. He merely glanced at her, turned, and walked away.
She started to feel uneasy.
She felt as if the look he gave her was a threatening one. Could Fred have gotten into trouble?
Before this, when she got drunk the other time, Fred had bumped into John and said that he chased
after him to stop him in his tracks…
After sending them away, Fred had not answered any of her calls. Could something really have
happened to them?
Could he be referring to lan?
Thinking about it, it had been a really long time since she last heard from him…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce she thought of that, she started shaking.
The reason she changed her name and identity was solely for the safety of her two brothers and her
daughter. If anything were to happen to them…
After thoughts like these, Olivia gritted her teeth and chased after John only to be stopped by Jennie.
“Where are you going, Pheebs?”
“Ignore me. You can just go home for now. I have business to attend to.”
“Are you going to chase after that Mr. Freeman?” Jennie frowned as she advised. “I saw that he isn’t in
a very good mood. Pheebs, don’t go.”
Olivia’s heart was jittery. If she did not go and ask for herself, she would not be able to sleep tonight.
She shook Jennie’s hand off since she was too lazy to explain to her and ran over to block John in his
tracks.
“John Freeman, I’m warning you! Just take out any anger you have on me. Don’t touch my brother, or
I’ll make sure you’ll regret it!”
John saw how fierce Olivia was and could not help but want to laugh.
This woman was still the same. Every time she fought with him, she would look like an angry little kitty.
Abruptly, he reached over to caress her head while he chuckled lowly. “Ms. James, if I didn’t say that,
would you have come over to talk to me?”
“What?”
“Don’t worry. I won’t touch your brother.”
Olivia frowned as she swatted his hand away, backed a step away, and looked at him with a mixture of
wariness and disgust.
What did this man think he was doing again?
How dare he laugh?
What was so funny?
“I’ll surely win against TR in this court case, and I’ll be sure to get TR to apologize to me!”
“Okay. Let’s wait for the results, then.”
Then, John walked past her and got into his car.
Olivia bit her lips as she watched the car zoom away.
Before this, he said it was not him, but now, he was openly admitting to it.
It had been so many years, but still, she failed to understand that man.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Olivia thought about all this, she really did not know if she was the one that had failed, or if John
was just too good at disguising himself.
“Pheebs.”
Jennie came over and caught up with Olivia. She pulled her hand, dragged her to the parking lot, and
said, “Stop staring, he’s long gone. Let’s go back too.
“Is there anything you’d like to eat? Let’s go to a place with fondue to celebrate. How about that?”
Olivia retracted her gaze, nodded, and said, “Okay.”
During the meal, Jennie drank a lot of alcohol and passed out on the table before she could
finish.eating.
Olivia helped her into bed, tucked her in, and turned off the boiling cheese pot. One glance around the
entire room, and an odd sense of emptiness crept up within her heart.
She wondered how Fred and Lyla were doing.
Olivia was a little tipsy from the alcohol, so she went to the balcony and enjoyed the night breeze.
After a while, she took out her phone and called that familiar number.
In the beginning, she called every day, but no one answered her phone calls, causing her to not dare to
call them again after that.
He must be furious…
However, the alcohol made her a braver woman, so if she was hung up on for another night and
claimed to have called the wrong person, that would not be so awkward, right?
