Chapter 62 She Got Nerves of Steel +8 Pearls âLet you go, so you can regroup and come back for revenge?â Lucas teased from the front passenger seat.
Jack shook his head like a bobblehead. âNo, I wouldnât dare! This was my fault, I admit it. I swear, if you let me go, I wonât seek revenge.â
âYeah, like Iâd believe that,â Lucas rolled his eyes.
Jack turned to Olivia with a pleading look.
Oliviaâs lips curved into a smile. âIâll be waiting for your revenge.â
Before Jack could look relieved, Olivia opened the car door and kicked him out of the speeding vehicle with one swift motion!
Jack tumbled out, rolling over and over across the ground, ending up bruised and battered.
Lucas broke out in a cold sweat as he stared at Oliviaâs bold move.
âGeez, if Jack doesnât die, heâs barely hanging on. You really donât hold back, huh?â
Olivia calmly tossed the broken bottle out of the car, pulled a packet of tissues from her bag, and began wiping the blood off her hands.
Lucas swallowed nervously. âJackâs a petty guy. After what you did, heâs definitely going to come after you. Youâd better watch your back.â
âIt doesnât matter,â Olivia said with a calm smile, finishing up cleaning her hands. âIâm looking forward to him trying.â
Lucas gawked at her, completely thrown off by her nonchalant tone. âYouâre looking forward to it?â Olivia raised her eyes, a mischievous glint in her gaze. We live in a society governed by laws. Murder is illegal, but if itâs selfâdefense and ends in accidental death, itâs just excessive defense.â
A shiver ran down Lucasâ spine.
Is she a devil?
âBut still,â Lucas stammered, âas bad as he is... he doesnât deserve to die, does he?â
Olivia propped her chin on her hand and looked out the window at the scenery. âThree years ago, he killed a girl.â
Lucas froze, caught off guard. âWhat?â
âHe saw her at his bar, drugged her, assaulted her, then dumped her body in a river. His familyâs wealth silenced her poor family with a payout, and that was the end of it,â Olivia said evenly.
If she hadnât escaped in her previous life, she wouldâve met the same fate. Jack had told her so himself.
âHeâs handed out illegal drugs to minors in his bar and destroyed countless lives. Do you still think he desenât deserve to die?â
Olivia asked, her gaze sharp as she looked at Lucas.

+ Pearls Benjamin, who had remained quiet until now, suddenly spoke. âEven if he died a thousand times, it wouldnât be enough.â
Olivia smiled faintly. Yes, a sem like Jack could never atone for what heâd done.
Benjamin paused before adding, âIâll handle the rest. He wonât trouble you anymore.â
Olivia raised her eyebrows slightly.
Lucas, sensing the tense atmosphere, tried to lighten the mood. âOh, Olivia, should we take you home now?â
âYou helped me find Jack, so Iâll join you for your race, Olivia said casually, Lucas blinked in surprise. âAre you serious?â
âI keep my word,â Olivia replied.
Lucasâ expression turned complicated.
After everything that just went down, sheâs cool enough to talk about racing? This girlâs got nerves of steel.
Benjaminâs lips curved into a faint smile.
Olivia is truly an intriguing girl.
âWhereâs the race?â Olivia asked offhandedly.
âMt. Hevana,â Benjamin answered.
Olivia froze for a moment. âMt. Hevana?â
