Chapter 225
“Sir, you think some of them ignored your orders?”
In the afternoon, after the police arrested Olivia, John immediately ordered all media outlets not to report on it and retract all previous reports.
If no one released anything, it meant that Dorothy knew about Olivia’s case before anyone else did.
He turned his head and looked out of the window as he pondered.
If this had something to do with Dorothy, he would have to believe what Olivia previously accused Dorothy of before this.
While pondering, his phone rang. It was a call from Dorothy.
However, John did not answer until Dorothy called him for the third time.
“Johnny.”
Listening to Dorothy’s coquettish voice, John’s brows furrowed as he asked coldly,” What?”
After a moment of silence on the other end of the call, Dorothy sobbed and asked, ” Johnny, are you mad at me? You haven’t come to my place for a long time.”
“I was busy at work.”
“I know you’re busy, but could you come and keep me company tonight? I’m a little scared to be alone.”
John put out his cigarette and said impatiently, “Go to bed early if you’re afraid.”
Then, he hung up the call without waiting for Dorothy to speak.
He had no feelings for Dorothy nor did he want to hear her voice.
If it was not for her accompanying him when he had an accident two years ago and donating a kidney to save him, he would never have let such a woman near him.

Zyla had just put Olivia into bed when she heard the doorbell ringing.
She went to open the door, looked through the peephole, and saw the person outside. She hesitated.
