Chapter 345
During breakfast, Olivia sneaked a few glances at John but did not see anything unusual.
‘Did he not hear me?’
She could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Everything was fine as long as he did not find out.
After breakfast, John handed her a bag. “Change into the new clothes.”
Olivia wanted to say no but thought she had to take lan to school later, so she took it.
“Thank you.”
She returned to the room only to find that John had bought a long black dress. There was also a necklace inside.
She smiled wryly at the sight of them.
She could not figure out why John was doing this.
Did he think they could return to the way they used to be by giving her things as consolation after hurting her?
After changing into the clothes, Olivia put her previous clothes in the bag and took them with her.
After she got out, she saw John putting one hand in his pocket and looking at her with a half-smile. “Hmm, looks good.”
Just as she was about to say something, lan poked his head out and shouted a little impatiently.
“Are we leaving or not? I’m late for class.”
“Coming.”
Olivia came to herself, put on her coat, and followed lan to the backseat.
“Sit in the front with me.”
“John…”
She wanted to refuse him but met his deep eyes as soon as she turned around. She got a little scared, so she could only sit obediently in the front passenger seat.
The car was quiet all the way.
“lan, I forgot to take you to the hospital yesterday. Are your injuries okay?”
Olivia turned around to look at lan and said with a frown, “Why don’t I have a look?”
“No, the blood is all Zayn’s.”
