Ike stepped on the gas and shook Ethan's car off. Olivia didn't know that Ethan had seen Wayne hold
her in his arms.
She broke free from his grasp and
pushed him away. "Have some respect for yourself, Wayne Maxwell."
Wayne grabbed her wrist. "Dr. Ophelia, you need to
understand one thing. You were the one that came on to me before. Now, you want
me to hold back? Too late!"
The wind blew at Olivia's hair. Her dark, round eyes were still
teary. She looked very endearing. Wayne slowly reached out to caress her face.
"Let
her go!" Ethan stared right at him.
"Ethan!"
Wayne
said annoyedly, "Shake him off!"
Ethan
also ordered, "Catch up to them!"
It was as if Jack's appearance was just an inconsequential
encounter. Both Ethan and Wayne had their attention on Olivia at the moment.
Ike and Brent were stepping on the gas as hard as they could.
Both cars were speeding around in a high-speed case until they finally arrived
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtoutside the gates of the Heath Residence.
Linus was at the entrance with some people ready to welcome
Wayne and his fleet of cars. The street had already been cleared out.
The dozen or so cars came
speeding down the street. The two cars in the front were especially fast.
The two cars screeched to a halt almost simultaneously. The
doors were also opened. Ethan and Olivia, who was in a panic, stepped out of
the vehicles.
Linus was
confused. The assassin hadn't been found yet. Why did Olivia step out of
Wayne's car?
"Did
he do anything to you, Liv?"
Olivia
was finally free from Wayne. She immediately leaped into Ethan's arms.
Then, she
asked softly, "Jack is..."
Ethan
replied, "Don't worry. Kelvin is on the way to him."
Neither
of them wanted anything to happen to Jack.
Wayne stepped out from the other
side of the car. His hair was a mess, and there were some scratch marks on his
face and neck, which were clearly the handiwork of a woman.
Even the
usually calm and collected Linus couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"
Wayne
didn't care about the marks on his face. He looked at Olivia.
"Well, Ms. Olivia
Heath here is a feisty one."
His
suggestive words gave Olivia the urge to throw her shoes at his face. That
bastard!
"Olivia,
why were you with Mr. Maxwell?
Ethan's
gaze also fell on her. He couldn't help but think about how Wayne had his arms
around her.
Olivia explained, "Uncle Linus, I went to visit the graves
of my family members. I ran into him at the graveyard. He..."
Wayne chimed in, "I saw that it was getting late and was
worried that something might happen to her if she was alone. That's why I gave
her a ride.
"The incident on the road was completely unexpected. I'm
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsure Ms. Heath must have been so frightened."
"Are you really that nice?
You're the type that just does whatever you want, aren't you?"
Ethan could imagine what actually happened. Olivia would never
get in his car willingly. In fact, she would've run if she could get away.
Wayne didn't show any embarrassment
at being exposed. Instead, he smiled at Ethan.
"It seems like you know me
very well, Mr. Miller. Why don't you guess what type of woman I prefer?"
Ethan shot him a cold look.
"We're not friends. I'm not interested in doing that. Stop talking to me."
Then, he
left with Olivia in his arms while ignoring Wayne.
He knew that Olivia was anxious. When they went somewhere with
no one around, he quickly said, "Wayne's men stopped their pursuit. Kelvin
went after Jack. He should be able to find him soon. Don't worry."
He felt
bad when he saw that there were still tears in Olivia's eyes.
"Did
he do anything to you?"
