Chapter 258 The person holding her up smelled very familiar. He smelled very much like John.
Olivia opened her eyes to look, but her eyes were hazy, so she could not see anything. clearly. Eventually, she closed her eyes and passed out.
John held Olivia in his arms, and his eyes were murderous. âDo you want to die?â
Rainie was also startled. Her legs went limp, and she fell to the ground. âMr. Freeman, itâs not like that. She...â
However, John did not give her a chance to explain at all. âGet out!â
After seeing this, Rainie did not dare to stay there. Therefore, she quickly stumbled and ran away.
John carried Olivia to the bed and leaned over her to cover her with the quilt. After giving her a look of mixed emotions, he turned around and left.
The moment he left the room, John leaned against the wall.
âSir!â
Wes found John and saw that his face was pale. Moreover, his white shirt was also stained red with blood. It seemed his wounds had ruptured.
âSir, what happened?â
John frowned and waved his hand, signaling for Wes to take him back to the ward quickly.
Wes quickly supported John. âSir, youâd better not come to see Madam in the future. It would be terrible if someone found out about your injury.â
John did not respond to that. Instead, he said coldly, âHalt our new project with the Jameson family.â
âHuh?â Wes was shocked. His brain could not register what he had just heard. âThat project has great development prospects. If we halt it...â
âHalt it, and give it to someone else.â
Although the Jameson family had some level of status in Ocean City, they were not indispensable in that project.
Olivia was almost injured after she tried to save Mrs. Jameson. After that, Rainie almost killed Olivia. John could not bear it anymore.
He was the only person in the world who could hurt Olivia. No one else was qualified to do so.
After she passed out, Olivia fell asleep until the next morning.
After waking up, she still felt a little dazed. She felt as if everything that happened was a dream, but the pain in her neck reminded her that everything was real.
When she found the phone, she realized that it had been turned off by someone else. When she turned it on, it was filled with Zacâs calls and messages.
Just as she was about to reply, she heard a faint movement by the door and immediately thought of the supplement at the door.
She quietly got out of bed and walked to the door. Then, she slowly opened the door.
The person outside the door turned and left when they heard the movement, but Olivia still caught them.
Looking at the personâs back, Olivia was startled. âMrs. Jameson?â
Mrs. Jameson ignored her and continued walking.
âMrs. Jameson, are you not curious about how much I heard?â
Hearing this, she stopped. After a long time, she turned around and looked at Olivia. I donât know what you are talking about, Ms.
Larson.â
Olivia did not want to interfere in the Jameson familyâs affairs.
However, she could not understand this mother-and-daughter pair. One wanted to kill her, while the other was giving her supplements. She wanted to figure out what was going on.
âMrs. Jameson, come in, and have a chat with me.â
After she finished speaking, Olivia entered the ward, sat on the sofa, and waited.
Sure enough, after a while, Mrs. Jameson came in and sat opposite her.
âMs. Larson, what would you like to talk about?â
Olivia pursed her lips and smiled gently. âDonât worry, Mrs. Jameson. Iâm not interested in your secrets. I actually didnât hear anything yesterday.â
âThen why did you ask me to come in?â
âI do have something I want to ask you, Mrs. Jameson. Why are you giving me supplements? To thank me for saving you?â
Mrs. Jameson said nothing. She looked at Olivia awkwardly for a while and then nodded.
âThen why is Ms. Jameson bothering me? She accused me of stealing her mother, her man, and even her credit!â
Olivia licked her dry lips and pointed to the bruise on her neck. âI shouldnât ask you this, but yesterday, Ms. Jameson rushed over to kill me. Iâm afraid if I donât find out the reason why, sooner or later, I will die without knowing why.â
What happened over the past few days made her understand one thing: the Jameson family was not as simple as they seemed on the surface. Each and every member of the family had a secret.
However, she was sick of being forced into their games. One Dorothy was enough to wear her out, so she did not have the energy to fight Rainie anymore, and she did not want to.
