Chapter 153 âOlivia...â
John grabbed Dorothyâs hand and sat up from the bed. His tone was laced with a hint of nervousness.
When she heard that name, a sinister glint flashed across her eyes. Then, she said. softly, âJohnny, youâre awake.â
When John opened his eyes to see Dorothy, he was a little disappointed. He let go of her hand and asked, âWhy are you here?â
âJohnny, youâve been out for five hours. I was terrified. How are you feeling now?â
He ignored her and lifted his head to call out. âWes!â
Wes came in from the door. âSir.â
âWhere is Olivia? Did you find her?â
Wes shook his head. âNot yet.â
Johnâs eyes darkened. âYou piece of trash. Itâs been five hours, and you still canât find her?â
âSir, we looked all over the city, but we still canât find Madam...â
John wanted to get out of bed, but the anesthetic was still in his body, so he fell back on the bed after his knees buckled.
âJohnny, you should let your assistant do it. Your body is more important.
âAnd anyway, there are only a few places and people Liv would go to.â
After she said that, she held John and looked at Wes. She said, âMr. Coulson, please go find Aaron and Mr. Quinton. Maybe Liv is with them.â
Wes said ânoâ inside his heart. Immediately, he said, âI went, but sheâs not with them. I also went to Golden Hills Apartment, but sheâs not there either.â
John pushed Dorothy away, the coldness from his dark eyes overpowering. âGo look! Find her, even if you have to turn the entire city upside down!â
He wanted to know what that woman wanted to do this time.
The man she had in her heart was still in Ocean City, so she would definitely come back.
âAlright!â
After Wes left, Dorothy approached John again. âJohnny, you havenât eaten anything. Why donât you eat something?â
âNo need.â
âJohnny, Liv is an adult. Why are you so worried about her? Plus, she has friends. Perhaps she went to one of them.â
John peered at Dorothy and asked coldly, âArenât you her best friend?â
Dorothy was stunned. Then, she said with a dry chuckle, âYes, but Liv seems to misunderstand my intentions nowadays, so why would she come to me? Do you suspect me of hiding her?â
John ignored that and leaned against the wall to meditate with his eyes closed.
However, every time he closed his eyes, he would recall Olivia running toward him with a knife. Then, he would be scared awake.
He had never seen Olivia like that before. Whenever he thought about it, his heart would ache faintly.
Dorothy felt uneasy when she saw what was happening. She asked carefully,â Johnny, did I make you mad?â
âNo.â
âWhy are you ignoring me? I didnât hide her, and I didnât hurt her...â
As Dorothy said that, she started crying aggrievedly.
The sobbing irritated John even more. âWhy are you crying?â
âJohnny, donât you know why Iâm crying? You said youâre not mad, but you have such an unpleasant look on your face. You said you believe me, but you donât seem to. My only mistake is falling for you. Is that so wrong?
âIf we werenât seeing each other all the time two years ago, how would I have fallen for you? I had no choice but to give you my kidney. I couldnât just watch you die and do nothing, right?â
John wanted to fly into a rage, but when he heard her mention the kidney, he forcefully suppressed his anger.
âAlright, stop crying. Iâm not mad at you, and I believe you.â
âJohnny, youâre just saying things.â
Jonn sat up and took a piece of tissue for Dorothy. âDolly, be a good girl, okay? Iâm so tired. I just want to rest.â
