Lahat ng Kabanata ng Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman’s Indifferent Sinner Wife: Kabanata 821 - Kabanata 830

Olivia came out and happened to bump into Ken, who had brought Sam back.“Godmother.” Sam dashed toward her and held her hand.“Well? Have you told Ken what’s on your mind?”Sam nodded. “I answered the questions Mr. Lucas asked me. I didn’t lie or hide anything.” Olivia could see Sam was in a better mood after talking to Ken.Finally feeling a little relieved, she smiled at Ken. “Thank you.”“Bring him back tomorrow, and I will spare an hour or two every morning to guide him. We can gradually reduce the frequency of the treatments to once a week or maybe a month soon.”“Okay. Dinner at my house?”Ken flipped his wrist and looked at the time. “Okay. I’m getting off work, anyway.”“Mrs. Simmons made some soup and a few dishes. You can replenish your energy.”“What about John?”“He’s doing okay. He won’t die so soon.”Ken chuckled. “You’re still so hostile toward him?”“It’s not hostility. I don’t know if his words are true, and there’s no way I can forget my pain just because he saved me

After remaining silent for a while, Kate laughed suddenly and said, “Are you afraid I’m a little out of my mind because of the trauma?”“Don’t worry. When you get to know me, you’ll see I’m not that… addicted to failure. Once I realize things, my mind is clearer than anyone else’s.”As she spoke, she smiled. “In fact, I want to thank you. If not for you, I may not have realized things so soon.”“Me?”“Yeah.”Kate continued calmly. “Initially, I was indeed depressed, but I thought about you. If it wasn’t for you, I’d be dead. If it wasn’t for you, I might still be dejected…“If Ken saw me like that, heh…”Kate scoffed self-deprecatingly. “I would have fled abroad overnight with my illness, but you helped me stay strong so I could stand up again. I changed my mind. I don’t want to be the wayward Miss Lucas I was before. I want to start a career just like you have.”Olivia never expected her act would save Kate’s life.It did not occur to her at all that she would be Kate’s role

“How on earth did you help me escape four years ago? Was Jess’s death accidental or planned?”Zac froze the moment he heard those words. He felt like thorny vines were strangling him, dragging him deeper into the abyss.Olivia… eventually started to suspect things.He knew that their relationship might fall apart if he told her the truth now. However, there might not even be any possibility of a relationship between them.He felt that everything had changed since the last time he lost his temper. Everything, especially himself.He would never blame Olivia. He would blame himself for it.If he could not even be patient with her and had outbursts like that, he might be hopeless.Zac looked at the ground and took a deep breath. He was prepared to face the greater crisis of their relationship. Just as he was about to answer, a voice broke the silence.“Godmother.”Olivia turned around upon hearing that voice and grabbed Sam’s hand. “You’re done so soon?”“No. It’s been an hour an

The traffic lights at the intersection could change from red to green because they were written procedures. However, people’s hearts would not change so easily, unlike the traffic lights.Ever since Sam questioned Olivia, her mind had been disturbed by that question from time to time.She thought she was ill.A sensible person would not want to go back to their life before, yet she fell for a man like that for the second time. She must be out of her mind.Although her feelings were complicated, she would take Sam for his treatment at Ken’s office. Then, she would visit Kate to pay John a short visit.John wanted more than this.“Why do you come for a short visit every day? What is that you and Kate have to talk about?”Olivia peeled an orange and retorted, “What’s with your attitude toward Kate? I can’t believe you have such a status yet are so narrow-minded.”John suddenly reached out to grab her hand. “Yes. I’m narrow-minded, especially when it’s about you. I get jealous easi

“Pride?”Sam nodded his little head and said, “Yes. You said you’d look worthless if you forgave him. So, it means you don’t want to give in, right?“You think he hurt you so much in the past that you don’t want to forgive him, but no one asked you to forgive, Godmother.”Olivia was puzzled. “How can I accept him if I don’t forgive him?”“Godmother, maybe you can try differentiating your forgiveness and feelings for him. Dating him doesn’t mean forgiving him. The mistakes that have been made can’t be forgiven no matter what. “It’s like how I’ll never be able to forgive my dad. However, if my dad gets better and starts loving me enough to give his life for me, I won’t mind calling him ‘Dad’.”After hearing these words, Olivia froze and looked at Sam in disbelief.It had never occurred to her that a child of ten could see things more clearly than she did.She never expected to need a child’s words to enlighten her…Sam shook Olivia’s hand when he noticed she was in a daze and s
