Chapter 199
Johnathan stared at the line of small words on his phone, and instantly an arrogant smile appeared on his face.
“The woman I like never disappoints me. It’s interesting!”
Johnathan sighed and seemed to be in a good mood in an instant.
Felix watched from the side, his palms sweaty.
“Mr. Kinsman, it’s my fault. I didn’t notice that someone had tampered with the car,” he said with some guilt, feeling scared.
“Forget it. It’s normal that you failed to notice Olivia’s trick. You’re injured, so go to the local hospital to deal with it,” Johnathan said and glanced at Felix, who was admitting his mistake with his head down. Johnathan was in a good mood, so he was concerned about Felix.
“It’s just a minor injury. It doesn’t matter.”
“Just do as I say!” Johnathan’s face suddenly darkened.
“Okay, Mr. Kinsman.”
After dinner, Olivia lay in the bathtub and took a bubble bath.
Because the Lone Wolf had visited her bathroom once, before returning to Maple Villas, she specially asked Reed to carefully disinfect and test it with a team.
There was nothing wrong with the bathroom, but the smell of disinfectant was so strong that she could barely cover it even with a lot of perfume.
At this moment, she was lying in the bathroom with her phone, checking the photo sent by Gideon, which was taken outside the Oscuro Bar.
Looking at the angry look of Johnathan in the photo, Olivia praised Gideon seriously.
“Well done!”
Gideon found a quiet place and called Olivia.
“Johnathan is very angry, Miss Clarke. I don’t think he’ll let it go so easily. I’ve already increased the security measures around the villa, but when I did this, I found that Mr. Kinsman’s men were also nearby. And the estimated number of his men is more than ours…”
“Since the bodyguards of the Kinsman family are here, let’s remove some of our people. We will be noticed with too many people around.” Olivia thought for a moment and felt that it was better to keep a low profile now.
“Got it, Miss Clarke,” he replied.
“In addition, I have a feeling that Johnathan has something to do with Gianna. Check carefully to see if we can find any clues.”
If they were related, then it was very likely that Johnathan had something to do with the death of Old Mr. Kinsman.
As for Johnathan’s origins, she would naturally dig deep into it. However, she believed that no one knew it better than William.
She did not know what William meant by saying that it was not the right time back then.
Olivia let her imagination run wild. After giving Gideon instructions on some trivial matters, she hung up the phone and began to enjoy her bath time comfortably.
However, just as she lay back against the bathtub and was about to watch a drama, she heard movement in her room.
It was as if someone had broken in.
She became alert in an instant.
She quickly picked up the bathrobe next to her and put it on. Then, she walked carefully to the bathroom door.
She went to the door, carefully put an ear to it, and listened to the sound outside.
However, after waiting for a long time, she heard no movement coming from outside.
Could she have misheard just now?
She was confused. She carefully put her hand on the doorknob and gently opened the door.
There was indeed no one there. It seemed that she had misheard just now.

Chapter 199
Olivia breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and went to the closet to find a nightgown to put on. Then she turned off the light and went to bed.
As soon as she lay down, she felt that she had been turned over and held in someone’s arms.
When she felt his warm breath, Olivia exclaimed subconsciously, “Aaah!”
“Hey, don’t make a noise. Hug me…
“William!”
This familiar voice and scent belonged to William.
But what was going on? What was he doing?
“What are you doing in my bed, William? Let go of me…
William felt the little girl in his arms twisting around, which made his heart excited.
“Don’t move, or I won’t be able to hold myself back.”
“Well… behave yourself. Can you let go of me first?” Sensing that something was wrong with him, Olivia immediately did not dare to move.
“My head aches so badly that I can’t sleep. Can I stay here with you?” William sounded weak and aggrieved.
Olivia struggled to turn around from his arms and reached out to cover his forehead with her hand.
The wound on his forehead just started to scab over. When she touched it, she could still feel the unevenness there.
“A headache? Why do you have a fever? Did the wound on your abdomen split open?” Olivia was patient enough not to expose his lie, but she didn’t expect that his forehead would indeed be hot. She subconsciously became nervous.
However, the person holding her did not respond. He just hugged her tightly subconsciously.
“William!”
“I’m fine. Just give me a hug.”
“Are you sure?” Olivia asked.
“Yes, give it a try if you don’t believe me.”
Olivia was a little confused.
His temperature was indeed high. She had never heard that hugging could cure a fever.
But now it seemed a little inappropriate to kick a patient with a fever out of bed directly.
She was in a dilemma.
Being held by William, her body tensed up subconsciously.
It was quiet at night, and she could even hear her own heartbeat.
Not knowing if it was because she was hugging a man with a fever, she gradually felt that her body began to heat up.
She even wanted to lift the blanket off of her…
But William already had a fever. If he continued to sweat, he would catch a cold, making his condition worsen.
She decided to endure it.
Olivia thought helplessly, but she didn’t feel sleepy at all.
At this time, the phone buzzed.
The sound came from the phone that William had placed on the bedside table.
William was not awake, and the phone was over on his side. She could not reach it, so she could only let it keep ringing.
When the other party finally hung up, Olivia’s cell phone then rang.
She subconsciously turned around to pick it up, but William took her phone first.
“Hello? Liv, are you in danger? Why is your heart beating so fast?” On the other end of the phone, Jameson was awakened by the warning tone of the test application in the middle of the night. Then, he made a phone call in a daze.
The moment the phone was connected, he even felt his heart sk ip a beat.
“I think Olivia was just tempted by me. You don’t have to worry,” William shamelessly said.

Olivia was stunned by his words.
“What nonsense are you talking…
“Good girl, don’t make trouble. My head aches again…”
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Jameson felt so wronged that he wanted to cry.
He wondered what sins did he, a single man, commit in his previous life. Why should he suffer from a couple displaying their love in the middle of the night?
