Chapter 705 On the way to Quinton Group, Zac noticed Olivia frowning the entire journey and looking apprehensive. He joked. âLiv, weâre only going to Quinton Group, not the execution grounds. You donât have to be so nervous.â
âIâm not.â
Zac reached out to unfurrow her eyebrows. He laughed. âYour eyebrows are so tightly knitted together and youâre still claiming youâre not nervous?â
Olivia rubbed the space between her eyebrows. âAm I?â
âYeah, you donât have to worry. He wonât do anything to me.â
âBut...â
Back then, Jimmy asked someone to run Zac over with a car because he was unwilling to marry Dorothy as per his orders. If Zac went to ask for his shares now, wouldnât he offend Jimmy even more?
âNo!â
Olivia grabbed Zac. âWe should have planned this. If we barge in like this, I worry that weâll provoke your father and heâll kill...â
âKill?â
Olivia bit her lip and did not know what to say.
Zac smiled at her. âAre you worried that Jimmy will kill me?â
Oliviaâs pupils constricted and she nodded. âYeah.â
âI know he planned the accident.â
âYou do?â
Olivia blamed herself. âI was horrible at pretending. Thatâs why you figured it out...â
âItâs not because of you. Wilbur found out too, and he should have found out at the same time as Ken.â
âAre you not mad?â
Zac smiled coldly. âI should have guessed it long ago, so thatâs why I donât feel anything for it. He only cares about himself and was even willing to use my mother. So, I donât think itâs so surprising that he wants to kill me.â
âBut you still want to go ask for the shares? He wonât give them to you.â
âI know.â
Zac rolled down the window and chuckled lightly. âI know heâs behind the accident. Thatâs why I want to go ask him for the shares.
âBack then, I thought heâd leave me alone if I stayed away from him. That way, I wonât have to keep going against him.
âHowever, reality told me that he will only force me into things more and more.â
After he said that, he held Oliviaâs hand. âI should thank you. You showed me that I was just running away this entire time.â
Once he said that, Olivia knew he must already have a plan. She pursed her lips and said, âI will support you no matter what you do.â
âItâs so nice to have you around. Youâve given me a lot of confidence.â
âWhat do you need me to do later?â
âYou donât have to do anything. You just need to push me.â
Quinton Group.
The pair took the elevator to the top floor. Then, Olivia pushed Zac to the CEOâs office, but they were stopped by the secretary.
âPlease wait. Have you made an appointment?â
Olivia pointed at Zac. âDoes Zac need to make an appointment to see his father?â
The secretaryâs expression remained unchanged. âIâm sorry, everyone in this office needs to make an appointment to see Mr.
Quinton. Plus, heâs in a meeting now, so if you want to see him, you should wait.â
Olivia scanned the door. âYouâre asking US to wait at the door?â
âYes, this is a company rule.â
âYou...â
Zac patted her hand. âPheebs, letâs go there to wait for my father.â
âZac...â
Zac shook his head at her to tell her to stop speaking.
For lack of a better option, Olivia could only push him to a waiting area beside them. âWhy are you obeying a secretary?â
âIâve never worked here. Plus, Iâm also a cripple, so, of course they will disrespect me.â
âBut...â
Zac whispered something in her ears and then comforted her softly. âIâm fine. Iâm just worried youâll be upset.â
âIâm fine. I just canât stand them treating you like that.â
âHoney.â
Olivia was stunned when he called her that. She stared at him blankly.
Zac smirked when he saw her reaction. âI just wanted to see your reaction. Youâre so cute.â
