Chapter 864
At the hospital.
"Ian! Ian! Don't run!"
Olivia jolted up from the bed and grabbed in front of her in a daze. She nearly fell off the bed when someone grabbed her and stopped her from tumbling over.
"Don't move."
Olivia heard the voice and tried to open her blurry eyes to look. When she realized that the person talking was John, she flung his hand away and turned around, refusing to look at him.
"Where's Ian?"
"Don't worry, he didn't get on the plane."
Hearing that, Olivia breathed a sigh of relief.
It was great that he was still at Ocean City.
"Liv, could you stop being angry at me?"
Olivia did not respond, but lied down and faced her back toward John.
John frowned. "I was planning to tell you after I found him. I didn’t plan to hide this from you.
"What's with you lately? You knew your health was weak, so why won’t you rest? If your old ailment comes back, it'll be very troublesome. You should stay here and be good these next few days. Don't worry about anything else for now."
Olivia sneered and scoffed. "Are you trying to care for me, Mr. Freeman, or are you trying to keep me hostage here?"
John got up and went around till he was in front of Olivia. "Cut it out, Liv."
Olivia turned around and showed her back to John once more.
She remembered his lies, she remembered him sneaking around and following her.
She would never ever easily believe this man ever again.
"Olivia Larson!"
"What, are you going to hit me again? Just do it if you want to! You do that very often last time anyway."
"Scram!"
Even though John helped her find Ian, the wound in her heart was still raw.
She still wanted to believe that he had changed, but the truth was...
He would still do all he could to achieve what he wanted. He would stalk her and force her...
He was still that John Freeman. He did not change.
Olivia felt like she was too dumb back then. When she realized it, she really loathed everything.
She raised her hand to wipe away her tears. Damn it. Why did her heart still ache so much?
Suddenly, there was a shadow at the door.
Olivia thought John had returned. She could not help but yell, "Why have you returned?"
The person at the door had a fright and backed up. However, he did not leave.
