Chapter 363 Johnâs face immediately went dark and gloomy. A storm was brewing in his eyes, almost like they were going to explode soon.
Olivia was quick to push Zyla into Kenâs arms. âTake her away.â
âSis Liv!â
Zyla was unwilling, but Olivia glared at her and ordered Ken. âKen Lucas, take her away quickly now.â
Ken did not dare to disobey her, so he yanked Zylaâs hand and headed out.
On the flip side, Oliviaâs hands were balled into fists as she spat coldly, âJohn Freeman, this has nothing to do with Zyla. Dorothy was the one that was going to hit her.â
âJohnny, my face hurts.â
Dorothy pulled at John coquettishly and said, âJohnny, theyâve got me looking like this now. How am I supposed to join the party?â
John removed Dorothyâs hands silently and replied stoically, âGo find Wes for a change of clothes.â
Dorothy saw that John had no means of avenging her, so she cried, âJohnny, you brought me here, so if they hit me, it means that theyâre hitting you by extension, right? Also, there are so many watching eyes...â
John glared at her apathetically and said in a low voice, âDorothy Ellis, donât test my patience.â
Dorothy sniffled, turned around, and went to look for Wes.
She was clear that John was not entirely trusting of her yet, so she could not push his limits, since if she angered him, it would be detrimental.
However, to Olivia, this scene looked more like John flirting with his little mistress and her scoffing and snickering.
âWhy are you being so publicly nice to me today, Mr. Freeman?â
If this was before, he would have immediately exploded and gotten her to kneel before Dorothy as a sign of apology.
He was really acting a little low-key today.
John frowned. âOlivia Larson, donât say things so snidely.â
âHow could I dare to? Youâre the one with the ultimate power, Mr. Freeman. You could one day just finish. me off silently.â
Right after that, Olivia chuckled. âOh, right, I understand now. You did mention that my purpose in coming. here today was to clear the air around our marriage, right, Mr. Freeman?
âYouâre such a brilliant businessman indeed.â
Those few sentences from Olivia had John fuming with rage. He pulled her hand and said, âIâm not as despicable as you claim I am.â
Olivia flung his hand away. âIn my eyes, youâre exactly that despicable.â
Johnâs heart ached all of a sudden as he stared at the woman before him.
His tone softened since he was the one that broke his word to her. âIt was an accident today. It wonât happen again.â
âYou donât have to explain since I donât remember you anyway.â
A dash of sadness flashed in Johnâs eyes as he pulled her into his arms. He said coldly, âOlivia Larson. You did not forget, and I know that.â
Olivia trembled when she heard that, then, she turned and smiled at John. âDoes it matter whether I remember or not?â
âYes.â
âIf I forget, it means that youâre just a stranger to me. On the other hand, if I remember, it means that I hate you.â
Ever since they made the first step onto the wrong path, they passed the point of no return between them.
If she could forgive that, it would really be too insulting to her love..
She did not want to insult her love.
At that moment, a middle-aged man walked toward them. âJohnny, I have some business to discuss with Ms. Larson right here.
May I borrow her for a while?â
John turned to address him. âHello, Uncle Quinton.â
The man asked once more, âMay 17â
âWhat are you gonna talk about?â
âJust some personal businesses.â
Olivia looked closely at the man who was wearing a black suit with golden-framed glasses. He looked. sophisticated and gentle.
He had an aura somewhat similar to Zacâs and the looks to match.
After putting two and two together after hearing the way John addressed the man, Olivia asked, âAre you Mr. Quintonâs father?â
Jimmy extended his hand and said, âGood day, Ms. Larson. Iâm Jimmy Quinton, Zacâs father.â
âWhat would you like to talk to me about?â
âItâs about my son.â
