Lahat ng Kabanata ng Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman’s Indifferent Sinner Wife: Kabanata 541 - Kabanata 550

"The client for the custom ring.""Huh?"Jennie thought about it for a long time but still could not figure out what Smith had to do with the lawsuit."Pheebs, what on earth are you talking about?""I designed the ring because Mr. Smith was going to propose. If we could find him and make him testify, we'd have a better chance at winning the lawsuit.""Yes!"Jennie jumped up and clapped her hands, saying, "Gosh, why didn't I think of that?"However, her spirits sank again on second thought. "Pheebs, it's been more than two years. It's even a problem whether we can find him. Besides, what if he doesn't want to go to court?""I'm not thinking that much. Let's find him first."Olivia was not quite sure about this either, but she had to try.She was pretty sure the TR incident was targeted at her.Therefore, she refused to give up and would fight to the end."Pheebs..."Jennie was genuinely horrified. She grabbed her head and sobbed, "What on earth is going on? Everything's bee

The line soon got through."Ms. James?"Hearing the familiar deep voice, Olivia got so nervous that she did not know what to say and hurriedly hung up again.John called back after a while.Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar name, Olivia hung up again, shaking.She then leaned against the window and took several deep breaths before calming down enough to reply with a text message.Olivia: [Wrong number.]Then she blocked John's number.Out of sight, out of mind. She was too impulsive.What if she questioned him and let it slip, saying something he did not know?What if he did not even know she was Olivia?Or, what if... what if he did not do it? Would she expose herself by running over there?'No, I can't expose myself.'Lyla's still here. We haven't left. I can't...'With that in mind, she quickly booked two tickets to Rushia.She had to hurry and send Lyla away.When she got there, Olivia sighed and calmed herself down. She smiled politely, walked over, and knoc

Olivia raised the car partition, randomly picked out an outfit to change into, and put her wet clothes in a bag before lowering the car partition."Do you know when he will be back?""I'm not sure. I'll let you know when he gets back."After pondering for a moment, Olivia suddenly gazed at him and asked sternly, "Can I trust you?"The man froze for a moment before nodding. "If you trust Sir, you can trust me."...She received a call from Zac as soon as she arrived at the atelier."Liv, I saw the news. I already wired you 10 million dollars. I'll figure out how to wire you the rest in two days at the latest.""Zac, I don't want any money.""Hmm?""I don't want to compensate them. I want to win this lawsuit."Zac on the other end of the line was momentarily silent. "You want to go against TR to save The One?""Yes, I've thought about it. Jennie and I have spent three years working on the atelier. I can’t let it get destroyed like that."Olivia paused. "Someone's trying to g

With that said, Olivia turned into the living room, took an envelope from her bag, walked out onto the balcony, and handed it to Fred."I've booked your flights for tomorrow. Now, go pack and leave tomorrow morning."Fred looked at her in disbelief. "Liv, what are you doing? Are you forcing me to leave?"When he refused to take it, Olivia grabbed his hand and forced the envelope into his hand."Fred, this is an order, not a discussion.""Liv!"Fred lost his temper for the first time. With scarlet eyes, he clenched the envelope, wanting to tear it apart."I'm not trying to force you to leave. I need to keep Lyla safe. The further away she is from me, the safer she will be."Olivia looked over her shoulder at Lyla, who was playing with blocks in the living room, and her eyes could not help turning red."Do you think I'm willing to part with her? But I'm afraid. I don't want to lose you again."I can lose the atelier, but I don't want to lose you. Got it?"With that said, she t

By the time Olivia had washed her face and got out, Fred had put breakfast on the table.There was a glass of orange juice, a sandwich, and a bowl of chicken soup.It was simple, but it was all her favorite food. "There's so much food.""Liv, this is our last breakfast for a while. I must put in some effort, of course."Olivia pressed her lips together. "Fred, you've grown up.""I'm going to be taking care of Lyla by myself. I have to grow up, of course.""It's great that you figured it out."With that said, Olivia looked down and took a spoonful of chicken soup. "Yes, your cooking is still the best."Then she took another bite of the sandwich and said with a nod, "The sandwich is delicious too. I'm sad when I think how I won't be able to eat it again."Fred did not answer but pushed the orange juice to her. "I just made this. Hurry and drink it. Its nutrition deteriorates over time."Olivia took it and drank it without hesitation."Dig in. Don't just watch me eat. You hav
