Chapter 68
Zac nodded. “Well, sorry. I had a court case this morning, so I called Johnny. He… didn’t bully you, did
he?” Recalling what happened, Olivia pretended to be calm and looked away.
She forced a smile. “No.”
Zac knew she was lying, but he did not want to expose her lie, so he did not ask further. He helped her
set up the table and put the bowl of porridge on it.
‘This porridge is made with chicken soup, which is very nutritious.”
“Thank you.”
Sometimes, she felt like she would have already died countless times if Zac had not saved her again and
again.
However, she could not repay him with anything besides her thanks.
Her right hand was covered in red marks from John’s tie, and the cut on her palm looked even more

Her body was, after all, broken.
Olivia lowered her head to drink the porridge until she finished a bowl. She felt more alive as she handed
the bowl to Zac. “Do you have any more of this?”
Zac noticed her appetite and nodded. “I’ll fill your bowl with some more.”
“Thank you.”
It was another plain thanks.
Just as Zac was about to speak, Olivia suddenly said, “Zac, I’m pregnant.”
Zac’s hand shuddered, and he almost spilled porridge on the table. A strange feeling arose in him.
He put the new bowl of porridge down in front of her. He repressed his emotions, trembling. “What are
you going to do?”
“Zac, this afternoon, I made a scene with John. I pretended I wanted to commit suicide by jumping off a
building. I wanted to see his reaction.
“Guess what?”
A trace of pity flashed across Zac’s eyes. Then, he calmly said, “He won’t let you die.”
“Well, yes. He doesn’t want me to die, but not because of me. It’s for Dorothy, because I’m Dorothy’s
mobile blood bank.”
She ate a mouthful of porridge. A bitter smile appeared on her face. “To my surprise, I thought about
aborting the child. I told Johnny I didn’t want to give birth to his child.”
“Your body isn’t fit for it. You made the right choice.”
Olivia did not speak. She lowered her head and stuffed a mouthful of porridge into ti. Then, she
swallowed the whole mouthful with tears rolling down her cheeks.
Zac noticed it and felt as though something sharp was piercing his heart. He wanted to advise her but

When she swallowed the mouthful, Olivia suddenly turned around and looked at him.

“Zac, do you think the best way to take revenge on Johnny is to make him fall in love with me again?
Then I’ll die, leaving a child behind to make him feel guilty forever.”
“Olivia, your health…”
“I know. I have terminal cancer and can only live for another six months. But maybe I’ll live longer than
expected.”
“Aren’t you planning to get revenge on Dorothy?”
“Yes. This is a way to get revenge on both of them. And as long as I live, I’ll work on finding out the truth
and putting Dorothy in jail!”
A murderer like her should be punished.
Zac did not know what he should do. It was pointless to try to advise her. He could only nod his head. ”
Okay. Let me know if you need my help.”
“Why are you helping me?”
Her question stunned Zac. Before he could answer, the sound of hurried footsteps came from the door.
Then, someone pushed the ward door open hard. John, who was wearing a black windbreaker, dashed
into the room.
Noticing Zac, John mocked him. “Zac, are you trying to be her knight in shining armor?”
