Chapter 258
The person holding her up smelled very familiar. He smelled very much like John.
Olivia opened her eyes to look, but her eyes were hazy, so she could not see anything. clearly. Eventually, she closed her eyes and passed out.
John held Olivia in his arms, and his eyes were murderous. “Do you want to die?”
Rainie was also startled. Her legs went limp, and she fell to the ground. “Mr. Freeman, it’s not like that. She…”
However, John did not give her a chance to explain at all. “Get out!”
After seeing this, Rainie did not dare to stay there. Therefore, she quickly stumbled and ran away.
John carried Olivia to the bed and leaned over her to cover her with the quilt. After giving her a look of mixed emotions, he turned around and left.
The moment he left the room, John leaned against the wall.
“Sir!”
Wes found John and saw that his face was pale. Moreover, his white shirt was also stained red with blood. It seemed his wounds had ruptured.
“Sir, what happened?”
John frowned and waved his hand, signaling for Wes to take him back to the ward quickly.
Wes quickly supported John. “Sir, you’d better not come to see Madam in the future. It would be terrible if someone found out about your injury.”
John did not respond to that. Instead, he said coldly, “Halt our new project with the Jameson family.”
“Huh?” Wes was shocked. His brain could not register what he had just heard. “That project has great development prospects. If we halt it…”
“Halt it, and give it to someone else.”
Although the Jameson family had some level of status in Ocean City, they were not indispensable in that project.
Olivia was almost injured after she tried to save Mrs. Jameson. After that, Rainie almost killed Olivia. John could not bear it anymore.
He was the only person in the world who could hurt Olivia. No one else was qualified
to do so.
After she passed out, Olivia fell asleep until the next morning.
After waking up, she still felt a little dazed. She felt as if everything that happened was a dream, but the pain in her neck reminded her that everything was real.
When she found the phone, she realized that it had been turned off by someone else. When she turned it on, it was filled with Zac’s calls and messages.
