Chapter 52
"Dorothy, he promised me that too. You'll end up like me one day, so don't bother putting on an act in front of me."
"Olivia!"
John shouted, "How dare you accuse her! I wouldn't have spared your life if Dorothy didn't ask me to."
"Johnny, don't do this..."
John touched Dorothy's head gently. "How is your wound? Is it healing?"
Dorothy leaned into his arms and nodded. "Well, if you spend more time with me, I'm sure I'll get better faster."
lly, keep an eye on Olivia, and don't let her leave this room.
Dorothy was stunned. Then, she frowned and tried to convince John otherwise. "Johnny, you....but Liv needs to eat."
"Heh. You decide what she eats."
With that, John hugged Dorothy and cast a cold glance at Olivia, who was on the ground. Then, he closed the door coldly. Sitting on the ground, Olivia smiled wryly as she listened to their affectionate conversation outside the door.
She could not defeat him.
All because she was still in love with him.
Her lungs ached as she coughed again. However, she covered her mouth and stumbled toward the
nightstand to keep her volume down. She had to conceal her illness from Dorothy.
If she remembered correctly, she had kept some pills in her room. However, not many were left. She had only three remaining.
When Olivia opened the drawer, she saw the last three pills.
Frowning, she swallowed one and leaned weakly against the bed.
Two more! She was not going to make it until the day after tomorrow.
She could not understand John or even herself.
Suddenly, her cell phone rang, and she answered.
"Liv, where are you?"
She was shocked. "Mr. Quinton?"
"I came to visit you in the hospital, but the nurse said you weren't here. Where have you been? Are you trying to kill yourself, going around at night?"
She knew Zac was anxious from the tone of his voice at the other end of the call, which differed so much from John's indifferent attitude.
At that moment, she suddenly felt aggrieved.
'Why does John not understand the truth that even an outsider can understand?"
"Oh, I'm fine. I've been discharged from the hospital."
"Discharged? Do you think you're healthy enough to be discharged? Stop messing around! Where have
been sneaking off to? Tell me, and I'll pick you up."

Olivia bit her lip. Tears flowed down her cheeks, and she smiled. "Zac, people would think you were my dad if they saw you nagging at me like this."
Zac was speechless for a long time before he said, "I'm afraid something might happen to you. After all, you are Johnny's wife."
Hearing this, Olivia laughed. "Zac, only you see me as John's wife. He doesn't even care about me. Why do you care, then?
"Thank you, but please stay out of my matters from now on."
Then, she hung up and turned off her phone..
Everyone who came into contact with her and helped her ended up worse off. They were either in a grave now or had died miserably with no one to bury them. Zac had helped her out of kindness, so she did not want him to end up like them.
Olivia climbed onto the bed. She could not be bothered to take a bath, so she just covered herself with. the quilt and closed her eyes.
She would think about her future tomorrow. After all, she would not know if she could live till tomorrow.
Dorothy woke her up the next day.
"Olivia, did Johnny and I bother you last night?"
Olivia frowned as she thought, 'This woman is so noisy. Doesn't John think she's annoying?
'She even wants to show off about things like that?"
However, Dorothy had hurt her feelings, and she was heartbroken.
However, on second thought, Dorothy had gotten pregnant before. They had probably done it countless. times already.....
Thus, Olivia just rolled over and said, "Dorothy, Halloween is just around the corner. Aren't you afraid?"
