Chapter 461
The morning of the next day.
Fred saw that Olivia did not look too good and wanted to advise her to stay home, but since she
wanted to finish up the sketch as soon as possible, she was adamant about going to work.
He was helpless, but he did not force her to stay home.
“Be careful as Jenson Luke might lay his hands on you. Don’t worry about Lyla. I’ll watch her the whole
day today.”
Olivia nodded. She bit into her toast, put on her shoes, and left in a hurry.
She was still a little shaken. It could be from her dream becoming too real.
When she reached the atelier, she had just gotten out of her car when someone called out to her the
moment she took a few steps away from the car.
“Ms. James.”
Hearing that familiar voice, Olivia was stunned and frozen on the spot.
Olivia could not tell if she was still dreaming or if she was in the real world, so she turned around
frantically to find John coming down from his car and walking towards her.
The only thought that came to her mind was…
He was here to kill her!

Olivia took some steps back in fright and shook her head as she said, “Don’t come near me! Don’t
come any nearer…”
“Ms. James?”
John did not know what happened and was about to step up to ask her when he noticed something
unusual happening on top of the building.
“Watch out!”
After John roared, he ran forward immediately, caught Olivia in his arms, and was about to
move her to a safe area when…
“Ahh!”
Olivia was so frightened her legs gave way, causing both John and herself to tumble back onto the
ground.
Just as they crashed onto the ground, a brick fell from the sky and landed at Olivia’s feet, shattering in
front of her.
Olivia was so afraid she tugged her legs back and looked up in a panic only to see a figure
running away.
At the same time, her phone rang. It was a message.
[Phoebe James, I’m not afraid even if you call the police! You’d better watch out. I’m not going to let
you go.]
Was it Jenson Luke?
Was he crazy? How dare he throw bricks at her!
“Are you okay?”
Upon hearing John’s voice, Olivia’s mind was jerked back to the present. This man was still here, and
she had him over her…
Olivia climbed up quickly, shook her head, and said, “I’m fine.”
After the whole fiasco, she was sure that someone wanted to kill her, but instead of it being John, it was
Jenson.
At the same time, John picked himself up. As he dusted the dust off himself, he asked once more, “Are
you really okay? That person seemed to be targeting you. Do you need…”
Olivia was still trying to calm down. She avoided his gaze and said quickly, “I’m fine.”
Then, she did not pay any more attention to John as she ran into the atelier.
He wanted to chase after her, but when he remembered how much she detested him and
how afraid she was of him, he suppressed the urge to run after her and got back into the
car.
“Wes, find out what trouble she has gotten herself into recently. Also, get someone to find
me that person.”
Wes nodded and as he glanced at the abrasion on John’s hand, he asked, “Sir, do you need
to go to the hospital?”
John lowered his head to look at his hand. “No. It’s just a small wound.”

Why did Olivia seem like she had forgotten about him? How could she be so apathetic
toward him?
Did he really hurt her that much?
On the other side, Olivia staggered into the atelier, went to her office, closed the door, leaned on the
wall, and panted hard.
Everything happened so quickly just now, and she had almost blown her cover in front of
John.
‘Damn it, Olivia Larson! Why did you have to be so absent-minded?
‘How could you not tell the difference between dreams and reality? If he knew that you’re Olivia Larson,
you’re done for,’ Olivia thought.
She was already in a lot of trouble with Jenson, and if she threw John into the mix as well…
Olivia really could not think of what would happen after that.
Knock knock!
“What happened, Pheebs?”
Olivia swallowed her saliva, calmed down before she opened the door, and with feigned calmness,
said, “Nothing happened…”
“Nothing happened? You won’t tell me that Lyla got kidnapped yesterday, and you just had someone
throw bricks at you! Are you not planning to tell me that too?”
Jennie stared hard at Olivia with a solemn expression. “Pheebs, how much more are you hiding from
me? Am I even a friend to you?”
