Chapter 848 âSo? So you just mentioned divorce out of the blue? Let her worry about you alone?â
Johnâs voice was cold. âZac, donât you feel bad for doing this to her?â
âIâve signed the divorce papers. If I were you, I would take this opportunity to take her away.â
With that said, Zac hung up.
Wes happened to walk in. John tossed his phone aside and asked with a grim expression, âDoes Quinton Group have any issues lately?â
Wes shook his head. âNo, itâs been pretty calm lately. Aside from Dorothyâs car accident, nothing happened.â
âA car accident?â
âYeah. Someone might have tampered with the brakes and caused her to hit a utility pole, but she seemed to have only gotten a minor injury. Itâs nothing serious.â
John narrowed his narrow eyes. âCould you look into Quinton Group and find out who Olivia met the other day?â
âTheyâre good at counter-reconnaissance. I looked through all the surveillance footage and found only a blurry picture.â
Wes found a screenshot of the surveillance footage and handed it over as he spoke.
John took it and looked at it for a long time. The picture was too blurry. He could only make out a man, but he could not see his face. Even his age was hard to tell.
For some reason, he was suddenly uneasy.
Something told him that this man would hurt Olivia.
However, Olivia refused to listen to him. Zac was divorcing her, and she might be suspicious if he went to Ken...
âSir, what are we going to do next? Shall I follow Madam?â
âYeah, send someone to follow her. Let me know immediately if you find anyone suspicious or if she met them.â
âYes.â Wes nodded, hesitated, and asked, But should we warn Madam, Sir? Madam could be in danger if this is the person behind Freeman Groupâs attack.â
âOkay, Iâll take care of that.â John looked down at the dark figure again. â Are you sure Xavier didnât come to Ocean City?â
âIâm sure.â
âItâs not Xavier. Then who was it?
âIs it the mastermind behind this?
âWho the h*ll is this guy? What is their purpose in impersonating Mr. M and approaching Olivia?â
Fearing that Kateâs condition would change suddenly, Olivia spent the night in the hospital. She was relieved when Kate woke up the next morning.
âPhoebe?â
Kate called her hoarsely. Her eyes glistened with tears, not expecting Olivia to stay with her.
âDo you want some water?â
Kate nodded. âYeah.â
Olivia quickly poured her some water and asked, âAre you hungry? Iâll have the driver send some food over. Youâre still on a liquid diet after your surgery, but Mrs. Simmons is a good cook. Donât worry.â
Kate looked blankly at her before suddenly jumping into her arms and hugging her.
âThank you...â
Olivia was still a little dumbfounded. âWhatâs wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?â
âNo.â Kate shook her head and looked at her with red eyes. âI thought I would be alone again when I woke up. I didnât expect you to stay with me all night. Thank you very much. No one has ever been so kind to me.â
Although her adoptive parents were good to her, they gradually became less concerned about her after she grew up and became headstrong. They let her do whatever she wanted, so she rarely experienced warmth.
âYou...â
Olivia bit her lip, and she thought of Zyla in a daze.
Sometimes, she thought there were some similarities between Kate and Zyla, but she could not put her finger on what it was.
