Chapter 652 On the way home, Olivia kept wondering why Kate hated Zy and why she said all those things.
However, she could not figure out why for a long time. She only felt a throbbing pain in her head.
Thus, she gave up.
She would just think about this tomorrow. If worse came to worst, she would just adopt measures appropriate to the situation at hand. Anyway, she was already mentally prepared.
She would not be scared no matter what happened.
She got back to Elegance Gardens. The moment she stopped her car, she heard a burst of laughter from the room.
This laugh sounded familiar.
âWho is it?â
Not a lot of people should know about her coming back to Ocean City. âIs it Kate again?
âOh no. Mrs. Simmons!â
She ran to the door. When she pushed the door open to see the person inside, she was stunned.
âJennie?â
Jennie put the cup in her hand down when she saw Olivia arriving home. Then, she pounced on her.
âPheebs! I missed you so much! Why do you look so thin after I havenât seen you for half a month? Are you not used to living there?â
Olivia was stunned. âWhy are you here?â
âHey, why do you think Iâm here?â
Jennie pouted. âIâm here to be my best friendâs bridesmaid, of course! How can you not have any friends. at your wedding?â
âDidnât you say you wouldnât come?â
âHow would this be a surprise if I told you?â
However, Olivia was more scared than surprised.
Her wedding was not something worth celebrating. Something might happen tomorrow, and she did not want Jennie to get involved in it.
Thus, her face turned cold. Then, she grabbed the suitcase that was still unpacked on one side. âCome, Iâll book a ticket for you now. Go back.â
âPheebs, whatâs the meaning of this? I just got here, yet you want me to leave?â
Mrs. Simmons quickly went forward to intervene in the fight. âMiss, what are you doing? Ms. Sutherland just got here. Itâs good to have someone looking out for you.â
Olivia frowned. âMrs. Simmons, why are you acting crazy as well? You should know what the wedding tomorrow means.
âItâs not a wedding to have fun at. Iâm not sure if I can handle Dorothy, if I can take good care of Zac, or if I can keep the situation in control.
âDo you know how scared I am right now?â
She could imagine how chaotic the scene tomorrow would be. How would she have the time to be concerned about so many people?
Jennie was confused. She said angrily, âI donât know why youâre scared of your wedding. This is not the first time youâre getting married, so what are you afraid of?
âPlus, itâs just a wedding. Iâm an adult, so I donât need you to take care of me. How will I be burdening you?
âI found out you donât have a bridesmaid, so I wanted to come to help you. Am I wrong for that?â
âYouâre not, but I am!â
After Olivia said that, she turned to go upstairs. However, Jennie stopped her. âPhoebe, if you donât tell me whatâs going on, I wonât leave.â
Olivia felt exhausted.
She knew Jennie was trying to help, but this was not the time.
So many people around her had died, so why should Jennie get involved too?
What would she do if something happened to her?
âTell me. Tell me whatâs going on, and I promise I wonât annoy you anymore.â
Olivia pushed her hand away. âAre you so desperate to find out? Do you have to keep on invading my privacy?â
âPhoebe, youâre going more and more overboard!â
âMy husband got into an accident before the wedding, and heâs still in the hospital. He needs to be in a wheelchair for the wedding tomorrow. Do you think this is a normal wedding?â
Jennie froze. âI-I had no idea...â
âOf course you donât. What do you know? Your world is so innocent. I kept telling you to stop trying to find out about my past.
Why didnât you listen?â
After that, Olivia lifted her head to let out a long breath. She said impatiently, âWhatever, Iâm tired. I donât want to say anything anymore. Leave.â
