Chapter 337
‘Start over?’
Olivia covered her mouth and cried silently.
Why? The man was always like this. Once he got drunk, it was as if nothing had happened.
They could not go back.
She hated John for his ruthlessness, stupidity, indifference, and imprisoning her.
He once said he refused to divorce just so he could keep her around and torture her repeatedly.
It was never for love.
‘Start over? Is he trying to fool me again?
‘But Johnny, I won’t fall for it this time.”
“Liv?”
The sound of his voice on the other end of the phone made Olivia’s heart shudder with pain.
Fighting back the tears, she bit her lip and said, “Mr. Freeman, since I’ve forgotten, we might as well end things here.”
Once she finished, she heard heavy breathing on the other end of the line.
After a while, John said coldly, “No. No, Liv. We can’t end things.”
Olivia’s breathing paused, and her lungs hurt.
“Mr. Freeman, we didn’t have a good past. Why continue?”
He said through gritted teeth, “Olivia, are you trying to get Aaron with this?”
She exhaled and said tearfully with a bitter smile, “Yeah, yes. I’m going to find him. After all, we were a mistake from the beginning.”
With that said, she hung up.
She was afraid that if they continued talking, John would ruthlessly expose her.
Olivia thought she was a terrible actor, but John believed her, which was considered a good thing.
Sometimes, she did not know what was wrong with her.
Why hesitate when she should be hating him?
While Olivia was recuperating, she and Zyla had almost all of their meals delivered to them.
