Chapter 517
Olivia and Jennie walked out while chatting. Just as they reached the door of the atelier, Jennie stopped.
“Sir, are you here to customize some jewelry?”
Olivia looked up, and her body stiffened when she saw the person approaching. Her smile disappeared immediately.
“‘You’re here.”
Ken was wearing a black coat, and his hair was messy. His face was full of exhaustion, and he looked as if he had traveled for a long time.
He looked towards Olivia and said in a slightly hoarse voice, “Come with me.”
That being said, he got back into the car.
Jennie was stunned, and a trace of confusion flashed across her eyes. She then looked at Olivia.” Pheebs, do you know him? Is he… Lyla’s father?”
Olivia only shook her head and did not explain further.
“Go home first, and tell Fred to not wait for me.”
“Okay…” Jennie looked at her back and could not help but remind her. “Be careful, and stay safe, okay? Call us if you need anything.”
“Alright.”
Olivia opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
Looking at Ken’s stubble and the veins under his eyes, she frowned. “How many days have you not slept for?”
“Not many. Just two.”
“Ken, what have you been up to?”
He did not answer. He turned his steering wheel and moved the car into an alley.
“Liv, the reason I’m here is that there’s something I need to give you in person.”
After saying that, he parked the car, took a folder from the side, and gave it to her. “Take this, and leave this place.”
There was no glow in his bloodshot eyes, only hatred and regret.
Olivia frowned tightly and felt upset. She grabbed his hand. “Ken, if Zy sees you like this, she would feel sad.”
Hearing that name, he froze for a moment, then grinned.
He laughed louder and louder, and his face was shivering. Tears filled up his eyes all of a sudden.
“Liv, you were right back then. I am really useless and worthless.”
He looked up and pursed his lips, “That’s why, this time around, I will avenge her. I know that her biggest wish was for you to live happily, but I might not be able to take care of you anymore. That’s why I’m arranging all of this for you. I hope that she will not blame me.”
“What are you planning to do to avenge her?”
“I have my ways. You don’t have to worry about what those are. Just leave immediately.”
Seeing him like this, she felt like she was to blame for talking nonsense in Solaria City that day, so she bit her lip and slapped him hard.
“Ken, wake up! You’re not avenging her like this. You’re on a suicide mission!”
