Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman’s Indifferent Sinner Wife novel Chapter 271

Chapter 271

Ken was startled for a moment. Then, he smiled and greeted him. “Zac, long time no see. Let’s grab a drink whenever you’re free.”

Zac ignored Ken and turned around. He spoke to Olivia gently. “Liv, I’ll leave Ken alone. I’ll go get something for you to eat.”

Then, he walked away.

Olivia looked at Zac, who was leaving, puzzled. “Dr. Lucas, did you offend Mr. Quinton in any way?”

They were on good terms, if she was not mistaken.

Ken smiled wryly and shook his head. “No, of course. He is on bad terms with John, and I’m John’s doctor, so he thinks I’m his enemy.”

Olivia nodded. “Well, that makes sense.”

“Mrs. Freeman, do you think so too?” Ken felt helpless. “I’m not on John’s side. I have no choice because the Freeman family is more powerful than the Quinton family. I support you deep down in my heart.”

It did not matter to Olivia whose side Ken was on, so she did not want to dwell on it. Instead, she asked, “When will Zyla wake up?”

“Luckily, the knife did not stab her heart, so it’s not serious, but…”

Ken continued after a pause. “After all, the wound is on the chest, and she lost a lot

of blood. We’ll know in these next few hours if she regains consciousness.”

They both looked at Zyla and said nothing more.

After all, it was not up to Ken when Zyla would regain consciousness. That depended on Zyla.

Olivia’s forehead puckered, and she felt guilty.

She should have insisted on sending Zyla far away. If she had done that, Zyla would be safe now.

It was her selfishness that made her let Zyla stay. After all, she did not want to face

these things alone.

She turned around to look at Ken. However, the look in his eyes surprised her. It was the same look she had seen John’s gaze when he looked at her years ago.

“Ken.”
