Chapter 618 Zac nodded at her and motioned her to go over.
âMiss, welcome back.â
Looking at the familiar face, all the past memories flooded her mind, and her vision started to get blurry.
Olivia quickly walked over and hugged the person. âMrs. Simmons...I missed you.â
âMiss, I missed you too, I thought that.â Mrs. Simmons sobbed âI really thought that you were dead four years ago.
âI am sorry.... I wasnât considerate enough. Iâve been too selfish...â
âMiss, donât be foolish. How could you be selfish?â
Mrs. Simmons used her warm hands to wipe away her tears. âYou silly kid. When I heard that you killed someone for revenge, I was so scared, so I quickly came to Ocean City to find you. But you wouldnât see anyone, so I could only wait until you were willing to see me.â
Mrs. Simmons sniffed. âBut the only thing that came back to me was the news of your death.â
âI am sorry...â
âYou really like apologizing, huh? Youâre not at fault, okay? When I thought you were dead, the young master became vegetative.
I felt I couldnât leave him alone, so I stayed and took care of him.â
Mrs. Simmons then looked at Zac. âLater on, I met Mr. Quinton and he wanted me to come and help him, but I didnât know if he was a friend or enemy. If it wasnât for...â
He interrupted her. âMrs. Simmons, letâs cut the stories short. The soup will get cold if we continue talking.â
Speaking of soup, Mrs. Simmons forced a smile, âRight. Miss, Iâve made you your favorite soup. Hurry up and drink some â
Olivia pitied Mrs. Simmons. She dared not ask any further questions so she sat by the table and drank her soup.
âItâs delicious.â
âDrink as much as you like.â
After saying that, she looked toward Zac. âSir, come and have some soup too.â
Zac was slightly taken aback by the term âSirâ. He was still unused to it.
Olivia did not seem to catch that and got up to drag him over. âCome on, Mrs. Simmons can cook really well. Have a bowl with me, okay?â
The kindness was hard to turn down. How could Zac refuse?
He had no choice but to do what she asked.
After finishing his bowl, he stood up. âLiv, I have a case to attend to this afternoon, so I need to go back. and prepare my documents. Iâll come back after work.â
âAlright, stay safe. Will you be having dinner at home tonight?â
Zac was startled again before he slowly nodded. âYeah.â
âAlright, Iâll go out and get some of your favorites with Mrs. Simmons for tonight.â
âSure.â
Olivia noticed that he had forgotten his phone and quickly ran over. âZac, your phone.â
âOh, thank you.â
âLet me walk you to your car.â
All of this was so surreal, and Zac could not think straight. It was only when Olivia started waving goodbye to him that he came back to reality.
âSo we really are living together and getting married.....â
All of it felt so surreal and unbelievable.
It felt as if his wife was sending him off to work...
âIs this something that I can think about?â
Zac opened the window and took in a breath of fresh air. He then pinched the place in between his eyebrows trying to force himself to calm down.
âI canât immerse myself in this. If I do, something bad will happen.â
He was really afraid he could not suppress his desires. If he harassed Olivia, he would regret it for his entire life On the other hand, the car was long gone, but Olivia was still daydreaming at the door This scene was giving her deja vu.
She used to send John off like this and tiptoe up to him for a kiss. She would occasionally deepen the kiss then suddenly push him away and remind him that it was time for work.
Every time John was confused by her, his breathing became heavier, and his eyes blurred, but in the end, he could only glare at her bitterly.
He would also threaten her after. âIâll punish you when I come home tonight!â
