Chapter 256
Olivia asked Zyla to sleep a little longer after eating so she would be well-rested. Initially, she disagreed, but since she could not win against Olivia, she had no choice but to sleep.
On the way back to the ward, she passed by the stairwell and accidentally heard Mrs. Jameson’s voice.
“You know I don’t have much time left. I must see her while I’m still alive.”
“Ma’am, I’ve been searching for more than 20 years. Do you want to continue? Your likely won’t be able to find her in your lifetime. Isn’t it enough to have Ms. Jameson?”
However, Mrs. Jameson shook his head and denied it. “No, it’s different. If I don’t see her, I won’t be able to rest in peace!”
“But…”
“Don’t talk nonsense, you must look for her even if you have to turn the city upside down! Find her!”
The other party seemed helpless, and they had to agree after being pressured.” Okay. I’ll try my best.”
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind Olivia.
“Olivia, what are you doing?”
Olivia, who was eavesdropping at the stairs, was startled. She then turned around and gave Rainie a stiff look.
Suddenly, Mrs. Jameson pushed the door open and came out. She was a little nervous when she saw the two women at the door. “Rainie? Why are you here?”
Rainie hurried over to support Mrs. Jameson. “Mom, I’m here to see you. I couldn’t sleep after you forbade me from accompanying you.”
“Good girl. I’ll be discharged from the hospital in two days. I’ll be fine.”
“Mom, it’s good that you’re fine. I was really worried.”
After that, Rainie looked at Olivia coldly before asking sharply, “Ms. Larson, what were you doing just now? Were you being a peeping tom? Or are you trying to harm. my mother?”
Olivia looked at Rainie, then at Mrs. Jameson, before saying with a light smile, ” Ladies, this corridor and the stairwell are public, so it’s not illegal for me to pass by,
right?”
“Olivia, I don’t blame you for stealing Zac from me, but don’t hurt my mother, or I’ll fight you with my life.”
After hearing this, Olivia burst out laughing.
