Chapter 460
“You left in a hurry during the day, and you didn’t answer the phone just now. So I decided to check up
on you because I was afraid something had happened.”
After a pause, John continued. “However, it looks like everything’s alright, so I’m relieved.”
Olivia had mixed feelings after hearing that.
‘Is he so gentle and caring towards strangers?
‘Back then…”
“Ms. James?”
John’s voice brought her back from her memories. She was slightly taken aback. Was she splitting
hairs with John for not being gentle enough to her before?
Immediately, she shook her head to try to rid those thoughts from her mind.
“Mr. Freeman, you’re overthinking. What could have happened to me?” Olivia said coldly.” It’s getting
late. I’m hanging up.”
“Wait.”
Olivia originally wanted to hang up, but when she heard his voice, she asked curiously,” What is it?”

the ring. I hope…”
Before John could finish speaking, Olivia interrupted directly, “You may be sincere, but I also have the
right to refuse, don’t I?”
After she said that, she hung up the phone. Then, she leaned against the head of the bed and closed
her eyes to adjust her disordered breathing.
For the first time in so many years, she felt like this man was a bit annoying.
The more she wanted to escape, the more he chased her, leaving her breathless.
At this moment, the phone rang again, and she hung up without thinking.
However, the other party did not get tired and called two more times in a row, which annoyed Olivia a
lot. She picked up the phone and cursed. “What else is there? Are you not going to let me sleep in the
middle of the night? I told you, I’m not accepting your business! How many times do I have to tell you?”
Maybe her cries scared the other party, so the person on the other end of the phone was silent for a
long time before asking, “Pheebs, do you hate me so much?”
Olivia instinctively wanted to say yes, but she felt there was something different with the
voice, so she quickly opened her eyes and glanced at the caller ID. She froze instantly.
“M-Mr. Hemsworth, sorry. I thought…”
“Who did you think I was?”
“It’s nothing. I thought it was a scam call. Anyway… Sorry.”
Upon hearing Olivia’s embarrassed apology, Xavier chuckled. “It’s me who should apologize. There
was an urgent matter in the hospital today, so I left without having the time to tell you. I’m really sorry.”
Although she did not like Xavier, if it was not for him today, she might not have found Lyla, so her mood
eased a lot.
“Thank you for everything you did today. If it wasn’t for you, I might not have found Lyla so quickly.”
“You’re welcome. Lyla’s kidnapping was a big deal. Even strangers would have lent a helping hand,
and we’re friends, so how could I sit by idly?”
‘Friends…”
Olivia smiled wryly. “Being friends with me won’t end well.”
“I do not mind.”
Olivia did not want to continue this topic, so she said, “If you don’t mind, I can treat you to dinner

“Okay, no problem. It would be an honor.”
“Okay, I’m hanging up now.”
After hanging up the phone, Olivia finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, when she remembered that Jenson had not been caught yet, her heart suddenly leaped into
her throat.
However, Lyla has Fred’s protection, so she should be fine.
That night, she did not sleep well, and in a daze, she still dreamed of when she stabbed John with the
knife four years ago.
Then, she dreamed that John was strangling her neck while pushing her against the wall. He was
staring at her with red eyes saying, “Olivia, die!”
After he said that, he plunged the knife into her chest.
Olivia was startled and sat up directly from the bed.
Seeing that her chest was still intact, she realized that it was just a dream. However, was it really just a
dream?
