Chapter 551
Upon hearing this familiar voice, Olivia’s spine stiffened, and she inhaled sharply.
‘It’s over. He found me!”
She lowered her head, wanting to go around, but the man grabbed her wrist.
“Phoebe, stop hiding.”
‘Stop hiding…”
The words he said terrified her even more, making her tremble.
Olivia bit her lip, took a deep breath, and shook off his hand. She said coldly, “John, we have already said goodbye.”
“Are you still angry about what happened that night?”
John looked at her. “I promise it won’t happen again. Can you trust me?”
Hearing this, Olivia narrowed her eyes. With a look of incomprehension, she sneered. “John, what do you think? You did save me, but I also said I didn’t want to get entangled with you, right?”
“I only had one reason for coming to see you.”
“What is it?”
John took out a check. “Here is thirty million. Take it.”
“What is the meaning of this?”
“I read the news, and I know something happened to your atelier. Didn’t TR want thirty million from you? The money here can solve that problem.”
Olivia looked at him coldly. “Do you want me to feel like I owe you so I can never refuse you again?”
John frowned. “I didn’t mean that. You’re reading too much into it.”
“So, you’re saying you’re giving me this money without expecting anything in return?”
“Yes.”
“Fine.”
Olivia took the check before looking at him coldly. Then, she immediately tore it into pieces and
threw it at him.
“I don’t need you to pity me, and I never thought about reconciling with them. I, Phoebe James, would never plagiarize, so why should I admit to doing so?”
John felt a tightness in his chest, but he said patiently, “If you need a lawyer, I can help you.”
