Outside the hotel.
John looked at Zac and Olivia in the car with a complicated expression and stopped Ken, who was about to enter the car.
"Ken, come here. Let's have a word."
Ken motioned for Zac to leave. He then walked to John and snatched away his cigarette.
‘Take care of yourself. One less cigarette can buy you more time.”
John lowered his head and lit another cigarette with a carefree expression. "One's lifespan is destined by God. One cigarette won't change anything.’
Ken knew that it was useless to talk to him. "I'm actually happy that you and Zac managed to reconcile. I suppose Liv will be happy too."
"If it wasn't because she wanted this, I wouldn't be helping Zac."
"What a stubborn donkey. If you could speak in a better tone, you and Liv wouldn't have ended up like this."
John blew out a smoke ring. "She's drenched, but she won't go to the hospital. Take a good look at her later.”
Ken took a glance at him. "Don't worry. I would've done it even if you hadn't mentioned it."
"You didn't tell her about me, right?’
"No, I'm not a big mouth. But listen to me. Don't drag this on. Don't be like Liv four years ago."
"I have my plans.”
John put off the cigarette butt. "How's Zac's leg?”
Ken shook his head. “He did his physio, but there wasn't much effect. I suppose his spine was badly injured."
‘Take good care of her.”
After saying that, he turned and walked towards his Maybach.
Ken followed behind and grabbed his arm. "Hey, don’t make it sound like those are your last words, can you? What are you planning to do?”
John turned over, looked at him, and laughed mockingly. "Maybe I just wanted someone to accompany me for a smoke."
After saying that, he got into the car and left Ken behind.
Ken was speechless, but knowing that it was John, such behavior made sense.
After all, he was always like this, and he did not like to express himself to others.
In the car.
Zac looked at Olivia beside him and contemplated a few times about what to say. He finally spoke. "Liv, you were too reckless earlier."
However, Olivia was still immersed in the victory, so she smiled. "But we won, right?"
After saying that, she suddenly turned to him. "I never expected my acting to be that good. I managed to scare them."
Zac was slightly worried. "Liv, it was really dangerous for you to do that. You might fall into Dorothy's trap unknowingly, and the consequences will be hard to bear."
"Zac, don't worry. I've thought it through.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Zac was a little helpless. ‘What kind of thoughts did you have?’
‘You cannot be desperate while fighting Dorothy. You should take your time to toy with her."
Olivia twitched her lips and smiled. “And the perfect revenge for her is not to kill her but slowly take away whatever she has bit by bit, turning her back to the old Dorothy Ellis.”
She reached out to the car window and started tracing circles on it. "To her, staying alive with nothing is worse than being dead!"
Her tone was fairly light, and she was even smiling.
However, every word from her was powerful and chilly.
"Liv, you've changed so much."
Olivia retrieved her smile. "Zac, I used to avoid things back then, but I won't now. I will face all this with courage."
Immediately, she grabbed Zac's hand. "I never changed. I am just going back to who I used to be. Plus, Dorothy and I are sisters-in-law now. I can't make you worry, right?"
For some reason, Zac suddenly felt as if she did not need his protection anymore. He could not help but be worried and sad.
