John caught up with her. “Don’t do this. Your legs will hurt if you walk back home like this.”
“What do you think I should do, then?”
“When Wes sees that I’m not back yet, he’ll come to us.”
“Wait? When?” Olivia shoved off his hand and shouted, “Do we have to wait all night?”
“A few hours.”
“John.” After staring at him for a long time, Olivia asked, “Did you plan all this? A million-dollar Maybach
breaking down? Who are you kidding?
“You’re too suspicious.
“I’m suspicious of you. If you do this to me again, I might even gain the ability to become a detective.”
With that, Olivia turned around and walked ahead.
John went to stop her without another word. The two pushed and pulled. Suddenly, it started pouring
cats and dogs.
Then, Olivia heard the rumbling sound of thunder, making her shudder.

“Don’t be afraid. It’s all right.”
However, the thunder outside grew louder and seemed to get nearer.
Olivia shrunk into a ball and trembled in fear.
It was worse when she saw the man before her. The memory of her past in the rain flashed through her
mind.
John was afraid she would feel cold and wanted to drape his coat on her, but it scared her that she
stared at him and screamed.
“Ahh! Don’t come near me!”
“It’s me. Don’t be afraid.”
“Don’t you come over here!” Olivia’s eyes were red, and she kept shaking her head. “Don’t come near
me! You’re a devil! Don’t catch me.”
Devil?
John’s heart skipped a beat, and he found it difficult to breathe.
He could see in her eyes that the fear was from deep down inside her.
She was genuinely afraid of him.
Only then did he realize he had hurt her so deeply…
Outside, the thunder rumbled, and John was before her. Olivia felt she was surrounded by danger and
had nowhere to escape.
Suddenly, she opened the door and ran out.
The man before her was scarier than thunder.
John was a devil in rain, not a human!
It shocked him when she rushed out. He ignored the rain and ran after her.
She ran fast, and it was downhill on the mountain road. She slipped and fell to the ground. Blood
gushed out of her knees.
She got up, still wanting to run, but she was a step late because John was hugging her.
“Liv, don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you.”
Olivia cried and shook her head. “No! You will kill me. You always go crazy on rainy nights… You’ll lock
me in a dark room and leave me to die.”
Listening to her mention what happened four years ago made John freeze.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWithout further questioning, he carried her back into the car, raised the partition, turned on the warm
air, and locked the door.
He was afraid she would run out again.
It was dark out here. What if there were wild animals?
Thus, he took no chances.
Seeing her still trembling, John hugged her tightly and said softly, “I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Don’t be
afraid.”
Olivia buried herself in his arms and sobbed.
Why?
Why on earth?
Why must she be entangled with this man?
Before, she had tried so hard to get him to see her, to get him back to her.
However, he ignored her existence.
Now, she had given up and hated him. She did not love him anymore and wanted to leave.
Why did he still have to haunt her?
Suddenly, she looked up with tears in her eyes as she roared, “John, why? Why do you have to go
after me? Why don’t you just go back to your Dorothy?”
