Chapter 83
Zac looked at how startled Olivia was and his heart trembled a little.
It was only then that he realized that his intentions had changed, but he did not know when that began.
“Liv, every time I see you, you’re barely alive. I’m a lawyer. I can’t just ignore that. Even if it was someone
else, I would have done the same, you know?”
After he was done, he explained further since he was afraid that Olivia would feel pressured.
“Even if Johnny may have something against me, I don’t agree with the way he does things. But he is my
friend, so as a matter of fact, it’s only logical for me to take care of you, so if Johnny has a moment of
realization one day in the future, I hope you will still be alive when that time comes.”
After hearing all this, Olivia’s heart jerked violently.
She had been tortured so much the past few weeks that she almost forgot that she was a cancer patient
that would die at any time.
She really did not bother to care about the ways of the world anymore, but she should not waste every
second and every minute she was alive.

“Don’t worry about it. I’m serious. I grew up with Johnny, so I know him really well. Stubbornness is his
weakness.”
Zac paused for a while. “Olivia, are you really still going to go head–to–head with him?”
Olivia snickered. “I was the one that was hanging onto him, but he’s the one that refuses to let me go
now. He refuses to let me live, and he refuses to let me die. How demanding of him.”
As she finished her sentence, the car pulled to a stop in front of the peninsula.
“Thank you, Zac Quinton.”
After she was done speaking, Olivia had a sudden realization that she had said too many thank yous to
him. She smiled awkwardly and said, “I’m sorry for inconveniencing you.”
“Liv, could you stop saying thank you to me from now on?”
Olivia was stunned for a while, and before she could react, the door swung open. John’s lanky frame
stood tall at the door, and his eyes were icy cold.
“Olivia Larson.”
His tone of voice was dripping with ice and tainted with a sliver of killing intent, making Olivia shudder
involuntarily.
She stood up to look at John, only to realize that his gaze was icy cold as well, almost like he wanted to
freeze her.
“Johnny.”
“Why the long face? Am I interrupting your seduction plan?”
“Johnny, there’s nothing going on between Zac and I. Don’t slander us like this.”
“Nothing going on?” John’s gaze fell onto Olivia’s lower belly and scoffed coldly. “You’ve got that b*
stard’s child growing in there, and you tell me there’s nothing going on?”
Olivia’s face was instantly ashen. Her parched lips struggle to form words. “Johnny… Stop saying.
nonsense! You’re the only man I’ve ever been with, ever since the beginning!”
John refused to believe her. He pulled her into his arms, looked at Zac, and said, “Zac, have you really
fallen for her?”
“Snap out of it, Johnny.”

However, to John, that had become a look of jealousy. John looked down at the woman in his arms and
snarked mockingly. “You’re worrying for her? Why don’t I gift her to you to play with for two days?”
“Johnny!”
“Zac, we’re buddies. There’s a saying that goes, ‘bros before hoes‘. She is nothing but a plaything to me,
so it doesn’t matter if I just lend her to you to play with for two days.”
The more John spoke, the more ridiculous his words got. They made Olivia tremble uncontrollably.
Was this still the man she loved?
No! This was the Devil!
Before Zac could respond, Olivia had wriggled free from John’s embrace and struck her hand across his
cheek with a slap.
“John Freeman, you’re despicable!”
As soon as she was done, she flew into the mansion and went upstairs immediately only to plop herself.
down on the bed right away.
Her tears flowed uncontrollably. How unbearable must John think she was for him to humiliate her like
this?
