Chapter 601 Jimmy looked at him in surprise. âAre you serious?â
Before Zac could speak, Olivia interrupted. âNo. He wonât agree to that!â
Then, she pushed Zac away and stood in front of Jimmy. âYou can beat me and give me to whoever you want. My condition is to not force your son to do what he doesnât want to do.â
âAre you crazy? Donât mess around!â
âIâm not messing around! Youâre a lawyer. Are you really going to help him when you know the law? The Jameson family is bad, but if you marry their daughter and ruin her life, how much better of a person are you?â
Olivia glanced at Zac and said slowly, word by word, âZac, if you agree to do what he asked you to, what is the difference between you and him? Are you going to become the person you hate the most?â
Yes! She was referring to Jimmy.
Although it was an arranged marriage, the Quinton family was not as powerful and wealthy as Zacâs motherâs family.
In other words, the Quinton family only got to its current position because Jimmy had taken over his father-in-lawâs company.
What he wanted Zac to do now was exactly the same as what he did back then.
However, Dorothy was nothing like Zacâs mother.
If Zac agreed to Jimmyâs suggestion, the only victim would be Zac himself.
He would lose his future and live a life he did not want to live.
âZac, think about your mother. What would your mother think if you became such a person?â
Mother...
Zac was lost in thought when Olivia mentioned his mother.
However, after a while, he said, âNo. My mother is a nice person, and Dorothy is bad. I could at least...â
âZac! Wake up! Youâre ending your life. What was the point of you resisting all this time before if you yield now? Are you trying to prove that resisting is useless?â
âLâ
âZac, donât turn yourself into something you hate. Youâll regret it for the rest of your life.â
She was so anxious that she burst into tears and looked at him, begging him bitterly.
Zac frowned, feeling bad. The more distressed he was, the less willing he was to let Olivia suffer.
âHave you two finished talking?â
Jimmy sounded cold yet proud. âItâs just a marriage If you like this woman, you can keep her even after getting married. What are you afraid of?
âYour mother? Your mother was not smart enough, she committed suicide over such a trivial matter. It is Before he could finish his sentence, Zac turned around and punched him.
âYou donât have the right to badmouth my mother!â
Zac and Jimmy fought. âMy mother was indeed foolish to fall in love with you! She knew you just wanted her property, yet she gave it to you so you would spend more time with her and so you would smile at her even just once.â
âWhat is a woman? A woman is a stone on the road to success. I just used her as a stepping stone. I couldâve dumped her when I didnât need her anymore. I didnât even divorce her. Who does she think she is...?â
âShut up! I feel ashamed having a father like you!â
âWhat did you say? You unfilial son! You coward! Piece of trash!â
Jimmyâs men came and pinned Zac to the ground, and Jimmy kicked him as he scolded. âZac, Iâm giving you one last day to think about it. If you refuse to yield, Iâll make sure this woman dies a miserable death!â
Then, Jimmy walked out angrily.
Olivia helped Zac get up and wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with her clothes.
âZac, I...am sorry..
Zac patted her hand and chuckled as he said, âWhy are you apologizing? Everything you said is my life.â right. If I agree, Iâll hate myself for the rest of Then, he smiled wryly. âHowever, Liv, if I disagree, Iâll also hate myself for the rest of my life. I canât watch you be tortured.â
