Chapter 677
"You knew?"
Ken froze for a moment and blinked. "You knew about this all this while?"
"I knew she liked you, but I didn’t know she was still in
Ocean City.”
Olivia said with a bitter smile, "I have tried to persuade her, but she did not listen. Feelings are something no one can interfere with, including me. I'm afraid you have to face this yourself. Otherwise, she might think I’m deliberately trying to stop her...”
Then, she sighed and looked at Ken thoughtfully.
In actuality, she wanted to sabotage this possible relationship.
"What's the matter with her?"
"I don't know. Didn't you meet her once the last time you visited me in Murica?”
Ken nodded.
"She fell in love with you at first sight, I guess." Olivia spread her hands helplessly. "So, if you ask me for the details, I
have no idea when she started to have feelings for you and what made her fall for you."
"Are you sure she’s your friend? She is not one of Dorothy’s people, is she?"
Ken's bizarre question amused Olivia. "Why would Dorothy send someone to win your heart? If she wanted to make use of you, she would have done it herself. Why would she need someone else's help?”
Ken was startled. "What did you think went wrong? I only have Zy in my heart, no matter if it’s the past or the future."
"Ken, don’t make things difficult for Liv. She doesn’t know anything. It’s better if you tell Ms. Sutherland about it yourself."
"She hasn't confessed her feelings, either. What can I say?"
Zac rolled his eyes and said, "It’s not the first time a girl has expressed her feelings for you. Say what you are supposed to say to reject her."
Ken frowned. ”1 am afraid Liv...”
’You don’t have to worry about me. If you have no intention of dating her, let her know about it and reject her. Don’t let her be. it might hurt her more."
Ken nodded. "Okay. I'll talk to her about it."
Olivia bit her lips. "Moreover, Gordon would not help
Dorothy. So, it means she has someone else with that ability who must be powerful. If she joins forces with Jimmy, I’m afraid we can't take them down."
With that, all three fell silent.
The Lucas family was powerful enough to deal with the Jameson family, but they could not fight against so many forces simultaneously.
Ken wanted to suggest getting John to help them, but he hesitated when he looked at Olivia. Eventually, he chose to keep those words to himself.
"I know what to do."
Zac said that abruptly, catching them off guard.
"Zac, the most important thing you should do now is rest and recover. We’ll observe the situation and think of a way later.”
She mentioned the matter to warn them, not for Zac to do something about it.
However, Zac did not seem like he wanted to wait.
He patted them both on the shoulder. "Don't worry. I'll be fine. I have some things to do that I can’t drag on."
