Chapter 545 Olivia raised the car partition, randomly picked out an outfit to change into, and put her wet clothes in a bag before lowering the car partition.
âDo you know when he will be back?â
âIâm not sure. Iâll let you know when he gets back.â
After pondering for a moment, Olivia suddenly gazed at him and asked sternly, âCan I trust you?â
The man froze for a moment before nodding. âIf you trust Sir, you can trust me.â
She received a call from Zac as soon as she arrived at the atelier.
âLiv, I saw the news. I already wired you 10 million dollars. Iâll figure out how to wire you the rest in two days at the latest.â
âZac, I donât want any money.â
âHmm?â
âI donât want to compensate them. I want to win this lawsuit.â
Zac on the other end of the line was momentarily silent. âYou want to go against TR to save The One?â
âYes, Iâve thought about it. Jennie and I have spent three years working on the atelier. I canât let it get destroyed like that.â
Olivia paused. âSomeoneâs trying to get back at me and destroy me, and I canât let that happen.â
âWhat does that mean? Do you know something?â
Then she told Zac all about Jenson, Dorothy, and TR.
âThere are no such coincidences in the world. I donât believe thereâs no one behind this.â
âAnd who do you suspect?â
âJohn.â
âWhat?â Zac was shocked. âLiv, I know you donât trust him, but this has nothing to do with him.â
âJenson told me that the guy who fished him out was someone from Ocean City who hates me.â
Olivia sighed. âAnd Dorothyâs the only one in Ocean City who hates me, isnât she?â
âBut he doesnât know who you are.â
âZac, why do you still trust him so much?â
Zac rubbed his temples. âLiv, Iâll look into this. Donât worry. Iâll help you contact a lawyer for the case against TR. Donât worry about it.â
Olivia bit her lip. âKen was the reason I came to you in the first place.â
âKen?â
âYeah, Iâm afraid Ken will do something stupid. He has done so much after returning. Iâm worried about him.â
Olivia paused. âIâm worried about you too. The Quinton family and the Jameson family are related by marriage. Iâm just worried Ken is too aggressive that your dad will force you to get married. You and Ken will be stuck in a difficult situation by then. Iâm afraid...â
Hearing her worry about him, Zac smiled. âDonât worry about us. You should worry about yourself.â
âWeâre all friends. I want everyone to be safe.â
âIâll talk to Ken. Donât worry. I have to prepare the materials for court tomorrow. Gotta go.
âYes, okay. Thank you.â
After hanging up, Olivia took a deep breath.
The rain had also stopped at some point. The dark clouds gradually dispersed, and the sky also cleared up.
Could her crisis go away like this?
Then she shook her head, pushed the door open, and walked in.
Jennie was now alone in the atelier, looking like a mess and depressed.
âJennie.â
âPheebs! Youâre back.â
Jennie showed her an order sheet. âThe one who received their order was willing to return it but asked for a refund on the deposit. I told them we would pay them back once we got our stuff.
âTwo of the remaining few asked us to deliver as usual, and they paid the balance in advance. Even though itâs not much.
âAs for the other seven, I paid back their deposit as requested.â
Olivia hugged her. âJennie, Iâm sorry I didnât get Mr. Smith.â
Jennie sighed. âIt doesnât matter. We still have a chance.â
With that said, she looked at Olivia carefully. âWhy did you change your clothes? Did something happen on the way?â
