Chapter 602
“Zac!”
Olivia cried, “Don’t say that! It’s not the only way! We can decide to not choose any of the options if we can escape this place.”
Zac had no confidence in escaping.
It was because he knew Jimmy too well.
Jimmy was a man who knew no boundaries.
“I’ve been missing for so long. Ken and Fred will notice I’m missing, and they will find us.”
Then, she looked at the wound he had and said, “All we have to do now is try to get out of here, and all you have to do is say no.”
“Liv, I’m not afraid to hand you over to John, but handing you over to Dorothy will be…”
Zac knew John would not kill Olivia. All he would do was pester her. He would not hurt her.
However, Dorothy was different.
Dorothy would torture and kill Olivia.
“Zac, let’s do things step by step. We’ll see what we can do when the time comes.”
Olivia held his hand and sniffled. “Zac, I love to run away from problems. So, I didn’t resist when you guys asked me to hide because I knew I would want to follow your word.
“You are different! You want to resist! You’ve been fighting from the beginning. You’ve done so much trying to fight your father. You can’t give up because of me.
“Then what would have been the point of your resistance? Do you mean to tell me that a man’s fate is predetermined and we cannot change it?”
She bit her lips. “I know a person like you who fought against fate throughout her life, but she died. because of it.”
Her tears flowed down her cheeks upon thinking about Zyla.
“Promise me, Zac. Don’t compromise, okay? Give me a little hope that I can plan my destiny upon your decision, won’t you?”
Over the past four years, she had become more and more avoidant. It was not for nothing.
In fact, four years ago, that was why Zac chose to help.
He saw the shadow of his mother’s tragedy in Olivia.
However, Olivia was stronger than his mother. Although she said she liked to run away from trouble, Zac did not think so.
He had a crush on her because of her strong personality.
She was obviously thin and weak, but she was like a wall, protecting him when she stood in front of him.
“Liv…”
Zac lifted his head and looked at her. “I promise you. I will not let anything happen to you or become like Jimmy Quinton.”
“That’s good.”
Olivia forced a smile. “Please don’t be discouraged. We will try our best to hang on and wait for rescue…”
Before she had finished speaking, Olivia suddenly felt dizzy and fell backward as her vision went dark.
