Chapter 534
“Xavier just hurt his back and shoulder, and his internal organs are fine. So, he was not in danger, but he’s still unconscious from the surgery.”
Olivia was relieved that his life was not in danger.
“If it hadn’t been for me, he wouldn’t have been hurt.”
Then, she got up and said, “Fred, take me to meet him. I want to make sure he is okay.”
“Okay. Hold onto my arm. You are still weak.”
Olivia put her hands on Fred’s arm, and with his help, she put on her shoes and walked slowly out.
“Liv, Jenson is dead. I’m afraid it’s difficult to know who released him from prison. However, I think it’s not that simple. Someone must be behind this.”
“Well, someone is.”
Fred asked when he saw Olivia acting indifferent, “Liv, do you know who is it?”
Olivia stopped to look at him as she smiled wryly. “I think I might know.”
“Who is it?”
“Fred.” Olivia looked at him deeply. “Don’t worry about this. Pack your bags and leave with Lyla.”
“Liv! You can’t do that.”
“As far as I am concerned, I am relieved that you and Lyla are safe. If you are worried, you can help me remotely, right?”
Olivia continued walking as she bit her lips bitterly. “Fred, do you know what I am most afraid of?”
Fred looked at her. “What are you afraid of?”
“The thing I’m afraid of most is seeing you and Lyla dying in my arms.”
Olivia’s grip on Fred’s arm tightened as she spoke in her trembling voice. “When Xavier fell in my arms, I thought of many people: Uncle Wallace, Zy, and Jess. They all died in my arms, and now I can’t accept death anymore.”
Then, she stared at Fred. “Promise me that you won’t let me face that kind of thing again, okay?”
Fred did not know everything from four years ago.
