Chapter 174
“How did things go, Mr. Quinton?”
“The police may have some so-called evidence of Olivia cheating on John and seemed to think the
murderer is her.”
“What? How is that possible? Isn’t Dorothy the one who did it?”
Zac frowned. “I’m afraid someone has made fake evidence. So, if someone insists Olivia did this, it
would be troublesome to settle this issue.”
Only the evidence provided by the witness would convince the police. Since Dorothy was good at
accusing Olivia, she could easily make the police believe what she wanted them to think.
As soon as she reached the door, they saw a tall, slender man standing on the steps.
When he saw them, he extinguished the cigarette he was smoking. Then, he dragged Olivia to his side,
glaring at Zac coldly.

don’t have to worry about this matter. I’ll get a lawyer for Olivia.”
“The best lawyer in Ocean City is me, and you’re replacing me with another lawyer?”
“Yes, I’m going to replace you! Zac, there’ll always be better lawyers than
you.
Zac did not back down. “John, I’ll not let you and Dorothy get what you want.”
The lawyer John employed would be bribed by Dorothy, and Olivia might need to go. to prison.
He could not let that happen.
John ignored Zac and dragged Olivia into his car.
Olivia wanted to shake him off. “John, it hurts. Let go of my hand!”
“So, you do know it hurts? Can’t you stay at home quietly? Why do you have to cause trouble all day?”
With that, John pushed her directly into the back seat of the Maybach and got into the car himself.
“Johnny, I’m a human. Of course, I can get hurt.”
Olivia was already heartbroken. She knew John would not trust her.
John glanced at her and frowned slightly. “Olivia, why did you kill someone?”
Last night, he was shaken by his thoughts when she was drunk.
However, this woman had embarrassed him again and again today, making him decide not to pamper
her.
To him, she was a hypocrite and a mean woman deep inside.
Olivia was not surprised to hear John questioning her. However, she could still feel her heart tearing
apart in sorrow.
“Sure enough, if anything happens, you suspect me.”
Olivia sneered. “Johnny, have you forgotten? You rescued me from the fire when I fainted there. Wouldn’t
you know if there were anyone else in the room?”

John was startled, yet he still looked into Olivia’s eyes coldly. “How do you know it is me?”
“I don’t want to believe you, but I have to believe what Mr. Quinton told me.” Olivia looked into his eyes.
“You admitted it when you got drunk that night.” John frowned slightly. “It’s normal that I can’t see
anything in a big fire like that.” “Did you find Uncle Wallace’s body after the fire went out?”
John knew no bodies were found because he had investigated that place.
Looking at John remaining silent, Olivia sneered. “Are you afraid, Mr. Freeman? You’re the witness of my
alibi. If I’ve killed someone, the police will suspect you are my accomplice. Otherwise, how are you going
to explain about the body?”
Suddenly, John pinned Olivia in his embrace. “Olivia, it doesn’t mean you didn’t kill Uncle Wallace just
because I saw nobody when I went in to rescue you.”
Olivia was startled. Then, she chuckled wryly.
‘Of course, he will find all kinds of excuses if he refuses to trust me.
‘Then, he’ll hypnotize himself that I’ve done it even though it was impossible.
‘John has always been like this.”
Olivia would never believe John had never doubted anything fishy.
However, even if he did, he would always believe Dorothy and suspect Olivia.
