Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman’s Indifferent Sinner Wife novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40

Zac took out a phone and handed it to Olivia. “Last night, I bought you a new phone. But you were already asleep, so I took your old phone.

“Yours isn’t broken, but it doesn’t work that well. I got you a new one and forwarded the information from your old phone to the new one.

He said it casually, but he was afraid he might have crossed the boundaries of their relationship. He kept glancing at Olivia to observe her emotions.

However, Olivia was only surprised.

Since John got mean and her father died, no one had ever cared about her this much.

Such gentle and unforceful care made her feel comfortable.

Zac noticed that Olivia was startled and thought she was worried about her privacy, so he quickly explained. (( Please rest assured. I didn’t look through the stuff on your phone.”

“No, I wasn’t thinking about that. I-I wanted to thank you.”

“By the way, about your butler, Uncle Wallace. The police called and confirmed that he got off the train at Ocean

City. Surveillance footage shows him taking a taxi from the train station to the peninsula.”

To the peninsula… So Dorothy had been lying!

Her eyes widened, and she bit her lip. “Where could he be…?”

“I don’t know, but I promise I’ll help you find him. It’s just that…”

Zac frowned. “You have to prepare yourself for the worst.”

Olivia’s hand trembled, and the porridge in her bowl spilled onto the blanket. Fortunately, Zac managed to hold the bowl up.

She covered her face and bit her lower lip until it bled. This was Uncle Wallace they were talking about, her favorite butler.

She should have looked around the house last night. She should not have let her guard down. How could she have been so careless?

How could she have slept last night?
