Chapter 78 Olivia trembled with anger. She knew Dorothy was lying, but she had no proof.

âI didnât...â Dorothy hid in Johnâs arms and said cautiously, âJohnny, Iâve never been to the jail...â
âYou came, and I...â
Before she could finish, John snapped, âThatâs enough, Olivia. Havenât you done enough? You couldnât just lie about cancer and bribe the nurse, now you have to try to accuse Dolly?â
âI didnât lie or bribe anyone. Iâm really suffering from lung cancer!â
John threw the report in Oliviaâs face. âSee it for yourself. Itâs written on the paper.
