Chapter 679 That voice sounded somewhat familiar...
Olivia lifted her head and was startled to see that face. âSam ...?â
âYes, itâs me, lady!â
Sam grinned, revealing the gap between his front teeth. It made his voice sound weird whenever he spoke.
âWhy are you in Ocean City?â
âOh, my aunt thought I was the reason my uncle died. So, she gave me to my businessman uncle. He was back here to get treatment, and I followed along.â
âWhere are your parents?â
âMy parents...â
Sam said with a bitter smile, âThey must be dead, I guess.â
The boy was certainly not telling the truth. However, looking at him, Olivia knew that he was not living a good life.
She reached out and touched Samâs head. âLook at you.
Youâre thin again. Your shoes are torn, and you...â
Olivia felt sorry for him and said, âWhy donât you tell me your parentsâ names? I can probably help you look for them.â
Sam shook his head. âLady, my aunt is my fatherâs sister. If she says they are dead, they probably are. Anyway, they abandoned me. Finding them would be pointless either way, right?â
Olivia wanted to say something, but she noticed Samâs face turning pale. He pushed her aside and said, âLady, leave quickly. My uncle is coming.â
âSam. You have my number. Call me if you need my help.â
âOkay.â
With that, Sam pushed her aside again and ran forward. â Uncle, the thing you wanted.â
âWhat took you so long? Are you trying to make me die of thirst?â
âIâm sorry. Iâll be quicker next time.â
Looking back, Olivia saw a well-built man slapping Sam across the face. âUseless!
Remember this! Your aunt sold you to me. So, youâd better listen to me. If you canât even do something so simple, I wonât feed you anymore.â
Samâs cheek was swollen, but he did not cry. âYes, uncle.â
âDamn it. If you canât help me make money, Iâll make sure you regret it!â
Noticing Sam had his head lowered, the manâs anger grew, and he wanted to slap the boy again.
Olivia rushed over, raised her hand, and stopped the man.
She snapped. âStop!â
âWhy do you care, b*tch?â
With a wave of his arm, the man threw Olivia off.
âB*tch, who are you to interfere when Iâm teaching my son a lesson? Since you like to meddle with othersâ matters, I...â
He raised his hand and wanted to hit Olivia. However, someone grabbed his hand and pushed him. He bumped into the pole beside them.
âKnow whose territory you are in before you make a ruckus here!â
âYour territory? Whoâs your boss? Do you know who I am?â
John sneered. âYou want to know who I am? Who are you to ask?â
âYou! Iâll make you...â
Before he knew it, he was pinned to the ground by two bodyguards, who searched him and found a bag of white powder.
âSir.â
âHand him to the police.â
âYes, sir.â
The man was escorted away by the bodyguards. However, he was unwilling to surrender and stared at Olivia and John fiercely. âIâll be out sooner or later. Just you wait! Iâll make you regret what youâve done to me.â
Perhaps Olivia had been threatened so often that she was not afraid anymore.
Anyway, there were a lot of people who wanted her dead. One more would not matter much.
It was probably because of what she had encountered that she did not care anymore.
Sam stood there silently without running after him until the man was taken to the car.
Then, he came over and said, â Thank you, lady.â
Olivia felt sorry for him and frowned as she said, âCome on.
Iâll get you some clothes and food.â
âI...â
He hesitated before he shook his head. âI canât go with you.â
