Chapter 588
‘Someone close to him…”
Olivia had no idea who it might be for a moment but thought it might have something to do with. the Jameson family and Dorothy.
Ten minutes later, Fred returned to the room, “Liv, I found it. You were right. It was hanging right around Barbie’s neck when I went looking for it.”
“See if you can find Zac.”
“Okay, I’ll do my best. Liv, stay safe. I’m worried about you being alone in Ocean City right now.
With that said, Fred paused. “Why don’t I ask Jennie to take care of Lyla, and I’ll go to Ocean City to help you?”
“Fred, I’m relieved that Lyla is with you. Jennie has to take care of the atelier. She’s too busy.”
Fred seemed to see through her and say, “Liv, you’re unwilling to be honest with her. You don’t trust her, or… are you afraid she’ll get hurt for helping you?”
Olivia looked out of the window. There was a long silence before she sighed. “Both.”
Jennie and Zyla were different.
She was only a friend, a friend who started a business with her.
Jennie was undeniably a good friend, but they never shared adversity, so it was normal for them to split ways in the face of trouble.
Therefore, she could not give Lyla to Jennie.
Who better to trust than Zyla?
Zyla would risk her life for her. No one could replace or surpass her.
Therefore, she must get revenge for Zyla.
“Liv, I was worried about you being alone…”
“Fred, I know I’m weak. And I often go out on a limb and get myself involved, but I can’t help it, and there’s no way I’m going to get Lyla involved. Do you understand?”

Olivia took a deep breath. “The only way Lyla can stay out of this with you is if don’t
Fred knew Liv must be pissed, so he obediently hung up.
Olivia did not feel sleepy at all after hanging up the phone. Therefore, she could only go out on the balcony for some fresh air.
Since she did not know who was behind it, she had to test the most likely suspects one by one.
Dorothy topped the list, of course.
Therefore, she turned on the news to see what excuses she should make up to approach Dorothy.
She slid her finger down and happened to see one.
“The heiress of the Jameson family is having a birthday party at Waterfront International Hotel at 8 PM on Sunday. The whole town is welcome.”
There was a line of fine print underneath that said, “The birthday party will be held in conjunction with the charity gala Ms. Jones has been planning for months that evening.”
Dorothy was smart to have a birthday party and a charity gala.
Since she had such a good chance, she must give Dorothy a big gift!
