Chapter 276
The call went through soon after Ken dialed the number, and John’s deep voice came through the phone. “Yes?”
Dorothy froze. She remained silent and observed Ken in horror.
However, Ken chuckled and said, “I visited Mrs. Freeman. She’s recovering well. I’m just calling to tell you so you won’t worry.”
“Okay.”
Suddenly, Ken sneered. “But I happened to meet Ms. Ellis on the way…”
Before he could finish his words, Dorothy snatched the phone and hung up the call. Her face was pale. “What’s… your relationship with Johnny?”
Only a few people she knew could talk to John like that.
Olivia was too annoyed to even look at Dorothy. She wanted to end this pointless conversation, so she tugged Ken’s arm and asked, “Is Zyla awake since you came looking for me?”
“Yes,” Ken nodded.
“Okay. Take me to her.”
With that, she dragged Ken off and walked away.
Reluctant to give up, Dorothy gritted her teeth and grabbed Olivia’s hand. “I won’t go back to prison. You did not win.”
Olivia shoved off Dorothy’s grip and sneered. “Dorothy, it’s not up to you.”
On the way to visit Zyla, Ken suddenly asked, “Mrs. Freeman, I believe there’s something else going on between that woman and John. He wouldn’t have any interest in a woman like her.”
Ken himself would not be interested in a woman like Dorothy even if she seduced him, let alone John.
There must be something else going on.
Olivia recalled some foggy memories from the past, and she still could feel the pain. However, she answered calmly. “That’s his business, and it has nothing to do with
me.”
Her grudge against Dorothy was only partially because of John. She would make
Dorothy pay for everything she had done to her.
