Chapter 868
Chapter 868
Zac had many books in the study room arranged on the bookshelf.
However, most of them were related to law, and some were about economics and finance.
Olivia already felt a headache come on just looking at the titles of the books.
After a while, she finally found a novel on the bookshelf.
Whilst retrieving the novel, the book above it accidentally fell on the ground as well.
Olivia bent down and picked it up.
It was a popular foreign novel, so she flipped through a few pages.
However, as soon as she opened the book, she saw a letter sandwiched between the pages, with the words [To Liv] written on it.
‘For me? ‘From who?’ Out of curiosity, she placed the book aside and started reading the letter.
The more she read, the more she felt weird about it.
Chills ran down her spine.
This was the letter that Jess wrote for her before she passed away.
‘Why is Jess’s letter to me with Zac? ‘Why did Zac never give me this letter.."
This caused her to recall the other night.
Thoughts suddenly flooded her mind, making her hands and feet so cold that she felt as if she was suffocating.
At that moment, a noise sounded from behind the door.
"Have you been waiting long?"
Olivia wanted to turn back, but for some reason, she froze and could not bring herself to move.
It was not until Zac moved the wheelchair over and tugged on her clothes that she finally regained her composure and turned to look at him.
"What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Olivia’s lips were trembling, and she started to suspect who this man in front of her actually was.
Zac reached out to pat her, but she took a step back.
"What is it?"
Olivia took in a deep breath and raised the letter in her hand.
"Mind explaining?"
Zac’s expression changed from worry to fear the second he saw the letter.
It was this trace of panic that helped Olivia confirm the suspicions she had.
Seeing that he had not spoken for a while, Olivia asked with a trembling voice, "It's been four years.
When were you planning to show me this letter? Zac Quinton, we have known each other for four years.
Why do I suddenly feel like we’re strangers? Why? Why don't you explain? "
After a long while, he finally answered her.
"What do you wish to hear from me?"
"Explain this letter! Explain to me how! got out of jail that night four years ago! Explain to me how Jess died!"
Unexpectedly, Zac seemed to sigh briefly and slumped down in the wheelchair.
"I have nothing to say."
Olivia could only hear a hum in her brain, and she almost fainted on the spot.
‘Why?’ She was really tempted to shove all her questions into Zac’s face.
However, she could not bring herself to move.
It was as if her feet were being weighed down by thousands of pounds.
She looked at Zac with despair, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
After a long moment of silence, she finally asked him with a trembling voice, "What do you mean, you have nothing to say? Did you set the fire?"
She paused, then scoffed as she spoke.
"Or did you choose Jess as my scapegoat from the very beginning? Is that why I managed to escape so easily? Is it?!"
Zac frowned and had a hopeless expression.
"Will you believe me if I say no?"
Olivia was taken aback and she shook her head while crying.
"You've never thought of telling me the truth for four years.How am I supposed to believe you now?‘
"Zac Quinton, Jess saved my life.How am I supposed to..."
Olivia clutched her chest, crying and out of breath.
She bit her lip trying to hold back the tears, but she could not.
Finally, she patted her chest hard.
"Did you know that Sam is her son?!" Zac’s eyes widened.
"Sam is her son?"
"Will you believe me if I say no?"
