Chapter 791
Olivia found such questions pointless. She yanked out her hand and gave him a cold glance. "I don't have to answer you."
Frustrated at not getting an answer, John pursued by asking, "Why not? Do you feel guilty?”
Olivia moved as far away from John as possible, put her right hand on the car window, and turned to look out the window as if she had not heard him.
"I'll take that as a tacit admission if you don't say anything." John gazed at her with a hint of suppressed anger in his eyes. "Why him? Of all people, why did you choose a man you've never met? What's so charming about him?"
When Olivia was silent, John got annoyed and tugged at her arm, forcing her to look at him.
"Why on earth?"
Olivia leaned over and bit him hard on the hand. "Because he doesn't talk as much nonsense as you do!"
John's eyes grew darker as he looked at the neat teeth marks on his hands.
He never thought that Mr. M would one day become his rival in love.
It was an oversight on his part, so he must make things right.
He must never let it happen!
Harbor.
When they reached the harbor, Ian was already waiting on the boat. He even waved at Olivia when he saw her.
"I thought John was lying when he said you'd come."
Ian took the small food container from her. ’Did you make this? You haven't cooked for me in a long time."
"Yeah, dig in."
Although Ian was much more talkative, he was still proud.
He would never beg or say he missed someone.
However, Olivia could feel he needed her, and that alone was enough.
It was only when she got on the boat and walked to the bow that she noticed Ken was there too.
Ken saw her and pointed to the rudder. "John's a typical capitalist who likes to exploit people. That's why he made me the captain. After all, I'm free."
Olivia smiled. "I didn't know you were so versatile."
"Versatile? You spoke as if I were an object. I'm well-rounded. I'm unlike Mr. Freeman and Mr. Quinton, who are severely biased."
