Chapter 423
Perhaps Olivia was tired of crying, as she gradually calmed down after entering the room.
All she did when she saw Zyla’s pale body lying there was sit beside it with tears shimmering in her eyes.
Her first encounter with her emerged in her mind.
Everything that had happened during their time together flashed through her mind like a movie.
“Zy, you promised me that I would be the one who left first. How could you abandon me just like that?”

Just the day before, she refused to accept Zyla’s death. However, she had convinced herself otherwise in just a night.
“Liv, we don’t have to rush into things. You can take your time…”
However, she interrupted him. “Zac, I saw Uncle Wallace’s swollen body because it was soaking in the river. I even saw my father’s body lying stiff in the fridge and my mother’s rotten, scary corpse.”
Only then did Zac realize Olivia had been through so much. She had witnessed so many people dying
