Chapter 103 John put Olivia down on the bed in the room upstairs and said coldly, âIâll stay here tonight.â
She opened her eyes to look at John. Suddenly, she felt amused and turned her back toward him.
âStay here with me?â
sounded like he was doing charity for her. She had not begged him to stay, either. He could go to Dorothy if he wished.
âWhat kind of attitude is this? I know you canât bear to be by yourself and you want someone with you all the time, so I promised to stay here. What else do you want?â
After Olivia heard that, she bit her lip and grabbed a pillow to throw at John.
âJohnny, what are you saying? I canât bear to be by myself? Whoâs the one that canât bear to be by themself?
âI was hospitalized because of my miscarriage. When I was discharged, I saw you and Dorothy together. Whoâs the one that canât bear to be by themselves?â
Olivia screamed that last sentence.
Ever since birth, she had been poised and dignified. When had she ever been so hysterical before?
This man was the reason she was barely human now!
Olivia grabbed Johnâs hand. âJohnny, what do you take me for? Am I a pet bird? Why do you have such high double standards?
âYou let your mistress into the house, and you even want me to give up my spot for her and become her servant. You think that itâs what I should do, and you forbid me from feeling jealous. So whatâs going on now?â
Johnâs heart started to ache when he saw how hopeless she was.
Was he going overboard?
However, she was the one who cheated first two years ago, so how could he be at fault?
Despite that, John did not want to argue with her anymore for some reason. He managed to control his temper and said, âOlivia, I donât want to argue with you anymore.â
After he said that, he asked Olivia to lie down. Then, he also lay down and held her against him.
Olivia did not want to see his face, so she turned around. However, John refused to let her do that. He held her and turned her back around.
She bit her lip and tried to turn around again. However, before she could do that, the man held her, and in the end, he trapped her in his arms.
âStop moving.â
âWhat do you want? You donât believe me, you donât love me, and you donât want to let me go. Will you only be happy when you force me into madness?â
âNo.â
John felt a little at ease as he inhaled her familiar scent.
âDonât move. Letâs sleep in each otherâs arms for one night.â
Olivia could not stop crying. She could not stop herself even though she was nearly suffocating.
Why was this man always like this? He would abuse her and then lovebomb her. Then, he would render her unable to leave him.
All the while, he refused to differentiate if this was love or hate.
Olivia hated people who were easily swayed, but what was she now?
She herself could not even tell if this was love or hate. However, she was drowning deeper and deeper in whatever this what.
At this moment, Dorothy was about to send the soup into the room from outside. Then, she saw the two in bed in each otherâs arms. She immediately flew into a rage.
âWell, well, well, Olivia. You learned how to play hard to get, huh?â
She refused to let Olivia gain any advantage from this. If Olivia gained more ground, the truth might come out, and Dorothy would be exposed.
Suddenly, she dropped the soup on the floor and let out a pained wail.
John was a little pissed when he opened his eyes. Olivia had finally calmed down, so what was up with Dorothy now?
He did not move, pretending to have not heard anything.
âJohnny...â
Dorothyâs soft voice came from the corridor. After waiting for a while, John was left with no choice. He whispered to Olivia, âWait for me.â After that, he got up and left the room.
âWhatâs wrong?â
âIâm sorry, Johnny. I didnât mean to disturb you and Liv, but the bowl was too hot. I accidentally dropped it because I couldnât hold it.â
