Chapter 539 As she reached the hospital gate, Olivia finally got through to Ken on the phone.
âKen, did you do that thing the news said?â
There was a long silence on the other end of the line before the man answered in a muffled voice.â Yeah.â
âYou...â Olivia had so much to say, but she hesitated and did not know what to say. She could only swallow it all.
âI know what youâre trying to say. Donât worry. All I did was pay off a hitman. They wonât trace it back to me.â
Olivia was a little relieved to hear this.
She was only afraid that Ken was out for revenge and lost his mind for a moment. It was a good thing that he did not.
âThatâs great.â
Ken chuckled. âLiv, you donât think Iâm that stupid, do you?â
Olivia smiled awkwardly.
Yeah, Ken would not be that stupid.
âDo you know how terrifying it was when you came to me?â
Ken was embarrassed when he thought about it. âIâm sorry, I was a little aggressive. I know you were looking out for me, but I couldnât get over it.â
âThere must be more to the Jameson familyâs rise. Iâm afraid they have backups. You gotta be careful.â
âDonât worry. Itâs just a test. Besides, Dorothy isnât hurt. She only had some scratches.â
âScratches? Wasnât she sent to the hospital for immediate rescue?â
Ken sneered. âYou really believe that?â
Olivia could not help but think of everything that had happened in the past and said with a sneer,â Yeah, itâs not surprising when sheâs such a good actress.â
âEnough about me. What about you? Are you still there?â
âYeah, but... Iâm leaving.â
Both of them went silent. After a long pause, Ken said, âLiv, I stand by my statement. Donât blame yourself. Leave it to me.
âAll you have to do is leave Murica for Zyla.â
Olivia sighed and said with a nod, âOkay, got it.â
After hanging up, she thought about it and decided to call Zac.
However, no one answered the phone.
She could not get through to Zac on the phone for the first time in four years.
She had been worried about Zac. She could not get through to Zac on the phone after Dorothyâs incident, which made her feel a pang in her heart.
âDid something happen again?â
She tried five more times, but the calls went unanswered.
Olivia panicked at this point.
She called Ken again. It was fine a moment ago, and now no one answered.
Just as she was panicking, the phone rang.
She answered it without looking. âYou finally answered the phone. Well...â
Before she could finish, she heard the caller say, âPheebs, Iâve been having trouble getting through to you. Where are you?â
Olivia froze and glanced down at the caller ID.
âJennie?â
She calmed down and coughed softly. âJennie?â
âAre you waiting for someoneâs call?â
âNo, itâs alright.â
Jennie panicked slightly. Unbothered to pursue the question, she hurriedly said, âForget it. Letâs ignore it for now. Pheebs, hurry back. Something happened.â
âWhat happened?â
âSomething happened with the atelier. Come back first. Itâs a big deal, even bigger than Jensonâs. We might not make it through this.â
âSomething happened to the atelier?â
Oliviaâs heart shuddered. Without thinking much, she stopped a taxi and got into it.
She did not believe it was a coincidence.
It was impossible, no matter how coincidental it was. Everything happened at the same time, including Jensonâs release and her kidnapping...
She shuddered at the thought. The fear from four years ago ate away at every inch of her skin.
