Chapter 733
‘This matter could be easily resolved if Zac explained it to the public.”
The three sat in the living room, and John broke the silence.
Olivia glanced at him. “How are we going to resolve this matter?”
“Liv, the idea we came up with was to tell the public that Sam was the kid John and I support financially. Yesterday was his birthday. However, because I couldn’t move around with the wheelchair, you went on my behalf. Everything yesterday was Sam’s birthday wishes, and you were fulfilling his wishes.”
Olivia looked at Zac. “Does this mean Sam must show his face in public?”
Zac nodded. ‘Yes. He needs to record a video with US.”
That placed her in a difficult situation. She wanted a better life for Sam. Most importantly, she wanted to ensure Sam would stay away from his old life.
However, if he exposed himself to the public, many other things would come after him in the future.
Olivia frowned. “However, you should know Sam’s past as I have told you about it before… If Sam shows himself, his aunt and those who had something to do with his past life will come looking for him. The scariest part is those people would expose things about him.
“If they exposed he had helped the drug dealers before, wouldn’t his future be gone?”
Zac patted her on the shoulder. “Liv, Dorothy already knew about him now. Do you think Dorothy will give up investigating his past? You can’t keep him hidden from the public.”
“But…”
Before Olivia could state her hesitation again, John said frankly, “I have already talked to Sam about it, and he agreed to cooperate.”
“What?”
Olivia looked at John in disbelief. “John, what’s wrong with you? If you talk to him about this, he will, of course, agree.”
“Liv, please calm down and think carefully. Only with four of US clarifying this will it make a difference.”
Olivia bit her lip and said nothing.
“Do you want to see Zac getting kicked out of the Quinton Group by Jimmy?”
Olivia was startled and looked at John. “What do you mean by this?”
“Zac didn’t tell you about it?”
“John, stop it.”
Zac wanted to stop John from continuing, but he was in a wheelchair and could not do anything about it.
“Jimmy was already using this matter to put pressure on Zac. He wanted to make use of the rumors to kick Zac out. Zac will be kicked out of the Quinton Group before even he can enter.”
John approached Olivia and looked at her in an oppressive position. “I’ll take care of Sam’s matter and will protect him. You don’t have to worry about him. What we have to do now is to record the video, or else this matter will implicate more people. Do you understand?”
“Liv, if Dorothy learned Sam’s past had something to do with drugs, she would accuse you of it. It would be pointless clarifying then.”
Then, Zac patted her hand gently and said, “Are you right?”
Olivia bit her lips and finally agreed after she pondered the matter. “Okay. We will do what you say.”
The two men were relieved. John looked at the time. “Sam should be here anytime now. I’ll go get the door. You two get ready.”
Olivia looked at Zac, feeling remorseful. ‘Zac, did Jimmy tell you he wants you out of the Quinton Group?”
“No. He just beat around the bush. He was just using the rumors to show the public I’m useless.”
“I’m sorry…”
“Don’t blame yourself. I’ll feel bad if you do that. You don’t want to see me cry, do you?”
Olivia laughed. “Why would you cry?”
“You look so miserable that you were about to cry. I must cry before you do to stop your tears from shedding.”
“Stop talking nonsense. I’ll not cry.”
John happened to walk in with Sam when they were laughing. He saw the harmonious scene and was heartbroken again.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
