Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman’s Indifferent Sinner Wife Chapter 614
Olivia wanted to get up to take a look, but John lay on top of her, refusing to let her move.
“Ignore it.”
Olivia was a little frustrated. When did this man become so clingy?
“If you don’t let me go, John, I’ll call the police.”
Maybe he heard the seriousness in Olivia’s voice as he swayed his way up and plopped onto the sofa. He did not dare to stop Olivia any longer.
Olivia fixed her clothes and walked to the door. Through the peephole, she saw who it was and froze on the spot.
Why was it him?
After hesitating for a while, she opened the door but blocked the door with her body.
“W-why are you here?”
“I saw the news.”
Olivia knew what news he was referring to, and she smiled awkwardly. “Since you saw it, you should already know not to come. It’s late, go back.”
“You’re not going to invite me in?”
The man stretched his neck and tried to look inside.
Olivia was quick to obstruct his view. “It’s really late. I’m going to go to sleep. I don’t want my fiance to overthink. You should understand that.”
“I don’t.”
Xavier covered his face with his hands. He was thinking about what to say, but he seemed like he did not know how to say it. He turned his head around, and after a long while, he spoke.”Why?”
“What why? I’m marrying out of love, of course.”
“You’re lying! If you loved him, you would’ve told me ages ago and not suddenly declared that you’re getting married a few days after you got back.”
Olivia did not know what to say.
Everyone was asking her for a reason, but it was her business, and what she wanted to do was her choice to make. Why did she owe everyone an explanation?
Olivia sighed. “Xavier, I’m more interested in knowing how you knew I lived here.”
Xavier paused for a while. As the light shone on him, his beautiful narrow eyes dimmed, and his thoughts were unreadable.
“Fred told me.”
“Fred James?” Olivia snickered coldly. “You’re lying. Fred wouldn’t tell you that at all. Did you
follow me?”
“I…”
It was the first time Xavier had looked flustered. He reached out and tugged at Olivia. “Pheebs, you know I like you. I… I can’t accept… I’m sorry…”
“You…”
Olivia was about to yell at him, but then, she remembered he had saved her life, and her tone softened.
“I always thought I made it very clear with you that I wasn’t worth you pursuing me all the way to Ocean City just to get a reason out of me.” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“No.” Xavier pulled Olivia into his arms. “Pheebs, is it because you think I’m not rich enough?”
Olivia felt like she was going crazy.
There was a madman in the house that she had not settled yet, and now, there was another one.
She really did not think that her charm was so powerful.
As for the reason behind it, Olivia had put some thought into it.
To John, it was because they were married before and because of his strong possessiveness that he felt like Olivia should be with him for the rest of their lives.
As for Xavier…
Olivia felt like Xavier had seen her as prey since the beginning.
Her mind was changed a bit after he got stabbed for saving her.
However, at present, she really felt like it could be… just his persistence.
“Don’t be like this, Xavier. I’m about to be married. You should let all those things you insist on go. We’re still friends, okay?”
“Why did
you choose him and not me, Pheebs? I want to hear the truth.”
Before Olivia could say anything, a shadow walked out from within her house and yanked Olivia out of Xavier’s embrace.
“You have no right to ask. Leave now!”
The man’s tone was gravely cold, and the surrounding temperature instantly dropped a few degrees, making Olivia inhale sharply.
