Chapter 367
After sending Dr. Zucker off, Zac sat by the bedside, staring at the woman lying in bed with a frown.
Tears streaked her pale face, and it was obvious that she had cried earlier.
She looked so delicate and fragile. How could John put his hands on her?
Zac tidied up her messy hair, but after looking a little longer, he could not help but touch her warm cheek.
‘Liv, why?”
‘You already knew that Dorothy would be there, and you know who John chose. Why would you still go to
him?’
When Zy called, Zac was preparing the necessary documents for tomorrow’s courtroom.
Initially, he was not planning to go. After all, he did not want to bump into a certain someone.
However, knowing that Dorothy was present, he could not help but worry about Olivia.
That madwoman could play any trick on her.
After contemplating for some time, he became restless and drove all the way there as soon as he could.
Unfortunately, he was still a little too late.

Zac murmured, and he was tempted to soothe her frown. He gazed at her and drew his hand back.
He could not face her this way anymore for fear that he might come clean to her about his feelings.
He did not want to destroy their friendship.
With that, he stood up, wanting to leave.
However, as soon as he stood up, Olivia grabbed his hand.
“Don’t leave…”
Her tone was very light, with a hint of coquettishness, which made Zac gulp.
He wanted to break free from her hand, but somehow, she had the energy to resist him, so he was
unable to move.
“Don’t leave… Stay with me, okay?”
How could he reject her request?
He was completely discouraged. He sat back down on the bed and patted her hand lightly. “I’m here. I
won’t leave.”
Suddenly, Olivia started to whimper and pursed her lips like a pitiful child.
“Why? Johnny, why are you treating me like this?”
“Johnny, I’ve loved you for seventeen years. How could you hurt me like this… Why can’t you
remember? Why…”
Zac choked on his breath, and he felt as if he was suffocating.
Then, he chuckled bitterly.
‘So, she’s sleep-talking and thinks I’m John.
‘Seventeen years. So, she’s loved him for a very long time, huh?”
“Johnny, you promised to protect me forever! You promised me seventeen years ago, and I remember it.
Why did you break your promise?”
Olivia’s cries grew heavier. Every sentence she spoke was coming from her pained heart.
At the same time, every sentence she spoke was a stab to Zac’s chest.
The more she talked about everything that had happened between John and her, the more pathetic Zac

He had promised to be her guardian knight that would protect her silently.
However, somehow, he had begun to think about replacing John.
‘Zac Quinton, you’re so ignorant.”
After quite some time, her temperature finally lowered from the effects of the medicine, and her breathing
gradually smoothed out.
Zac broke free from her grip, left the room, and went to the fridge to grab a can of beer.
One was not enough, so then, he opened another
He then walked out to the balcony and stared at the sky, which had only just stopped raining, with a lost
expression.
He really thought that he would stop caring about everything
However, the more he drank, the more pain he felt
Suddenly, a figure walked toward him.
Zac stared at the figure moving towards him. He thought that he was drunk and starting to see things, so
he waved his hand with a smile.
“Liv, go away.”
Immediately, he heard a hoarse voice. “Where do you want me to go?”
