Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman’s Indifferent Sinner Wife novel Chapter 9

John pushed Olivia so hard that she hit her head on the corner of the bedside table. The sudden pain made her hiss.

She frowned as she endured the pain. She reached out to touch the back of her head, only

to find her right hand covered in blood. She could also feel the drooping flesh on her hand.

However, John did not see that.

He only saw Olivia raise her hand, so he thought she was going to hit Dorothy. He reflexively

pushed her away again.

“Get your dirty hands off me!”

With that, he picked Dorothy up and walked out.

When he reached the door, he stopped. His sinister eyes stared coldly at the woman on the

floor and warned her.

“Olivia, this is your last chance. If I catch you bullying Dolly again, I’ll make you suffer a fate worse than death!”

‘A fate worse than death?

‘Isn’t that what I’m already experiencing now?’

Suddenly, she remembered her brother. Ignoring the blood on her body, she stumbled out.

She ran after John and stopped him.

“Johnny, where’s my brother?”

Dorothy did not make herself clear earlier, but Olivia could guess at the half of it.

John most probably had something to do with the Larson family’s bankruptcy. The day John

locked her up, he also explicitly mentioned her brother, so she believed he had her brother too.

When John was silent, Olivia grabbed his sleeve and cried as she begged. “Johnny, will you

let my brother go? He’s only 13…”

John glanced at her in disgust, lifted his leg, and kicked her away. He said coldly, “Olivia,

you’ll never see him again if you do that one more time!”

With that, Olivia went quiet instantly as she tried to get up from the floor.

She had nothing left. She could not lose her brother too!

She crouched on the ground. Her dress was drenched red with blood as her wound was torn open by the kick to her stomach.

However, she did not feel any pain in her body. She just blankly stared at John’s back as he left with Dorothy in his arms.

Love was like fireworks: only beautiful for a while, but it still created a memory for a lifetime.

One could lose a lifetime of happiness for a moment of joy.

Her heart hurt as if a million needles were pricking her, leaving her breathless.

She had never linked John to the Larson family’s bankruptcy throughout these two years.

She always thought that even if he had another woman or even if he hated her, he would

never…

She remained seated on the ground with blank eyes until Zac came.

Zac wanted to stay out of it, but he felt sorry for Olivia and decided to buy her dinner when he thought about how she had begged him to keep her illness a secret.

However, he had only just turned the corner when he saw Olivia sitting in a pool of blood, her

eyes blank.

Zac quickly put the meal aside, picked her up off the floor, carried her back to the room, and

called the doctor.

When the doctor arrived, they looked at the drooping flesh on her right hand and could not help but frown and scold Zac. “Did you not look after her? This wound on her hand was due to a forceful pull! Now I can’t use her right hand to administer IV medication!”

The nurse rushed to help Olivia with the wound. Her heart wrenched as she looked at her

mangled hand.

It must have hurt like hell.

However, Olivia did not react, cry or struggle. It was as if she did not even feel the wound.

The back of her head had been hit by the corner of the bedside table. It was a serious injury, and it was bleeding. The doctor covered it with a simple bandage.

“Ms. Larson, you’re still young. Take care of your health, or you won’t even have six months

left to live.”

Olivia did not move until she heard that.

She looked up at the doctor. “How long do I have? Do I have three months?”

The doctor looked at her and could not help shaking his head. “If you eat one more bar of soap, even three months is a stretch.”

‘Not even three months?
