Chapter 197
‘Ben’s dead?’
Olivia was still in a trance as she tugged at Zyla. Her face was pale and bloodless as she said, “Say that
again.”
“Ben’s… dead.”
“No way! Impossible!”
Olivia cried and shook her head. “You’re lying to me, aren’t you?”
Zyla had no idea what had happened, but she knew Ben was an important witness.
It would upset Olivia now that he was dead.
Therefore, she hugged Olivia tightly and comforted her in a whisper, “Sis Liv, I’m sorry. He was already
dead when the ambulance got there.”
“How is that possible?”
Ignoring the needle in her hand, Olivia shook Zyla desperately, crying and asking repeatedly.
How could the witness she tried so hard to find just die?

comfort her, so she let Olivia shake her.

Once Olivia was settled in, Zyla returned to Golden Hills Apartment with groceries, preparing to make her
soup.
Hospital.
“Hsss!”
An excruciating pain made Olivia sit up in bed.
She met a pair of malicious eyes as soon as she opened her eyes.
She subconsciously wanted to hide but found someone pressing her left hand hard. Seeing the bright
red blood seeping through the gauze, Dorothy let go with a sneer.
“Ha, Olivia. You’re so lucky that it didn’t kill you!”
With that said, Dorothy smiled triumphantly “But Ben isn’t as lucky as you.”
Dorothy smiled more when Olivia was silent.
“Liv, what’s with that expression? Shouldn’t you be glad you survived?”
Olivia swallowed the pain and propped herself up in bed. She looked at Dorothy as if she were going to
bite her to pieces. “Dorothy!”
“Actually, I’ve been looking for Ben for a long time. Thank you very much for helping. me find him.
Otherwise, it would probably have taken more time.”
Dorothy sneered. “The man was so good that he pretended to be a beggar to get away from me. Liv,
you’re good. You found him.”
Olivia’s pupils dilated as if she thought of something.
“Did you plan the car accident?”
“That’s right. Am I supposed to let you bring Ben back and testify against me?”
Boom!
Olivia’s mind buzzed.
She thought she was the first to find evidence of Dorothy’s crime, but she did not expect that Dorothy
would find out and then let her destroy it in front of her!

“Really? But I remember warning you not to feign compliance. Or you will suffer the consequences. Why
did you disobey me?”
Dorothy leaned over and squeezed Olivia’s jaw. “But I loved watching you suffer. It’s a pleasure to
watch!”
“You!”
“What’s wrong with me? You must hate me, don’t you?”
Dorothy was unbothered. She was now in control and was not afraid.
Then she smiled dismissively. “Olivia, have you forgotten how much leverage I have on you? You’re
over-confident to think you can fight me!”
“Dorothy Ellis
Olivia was shaking all over The thought of her brother and Uncle Wallace made her reach out and grab
Dorothy by the hair
Just as she was about to pull, she heard Dorothy say. “Do you know Zac’s dying because of you?”
