Chapter 731
In an instant, he knew it was pointless saying anything anymore.
The woman before him was very different from four years ago. She had changed since they first met after four years had passed.
He could see that she was stronger.
However, the more she let go of everything, the more John realized how much he cared about this woman.
It was just that…
His care was meaningless now.
What Zac said may make sense. Late affection was worse than nothing.
Then, they just took a silent walk on the beach and talked about some meaningless topics. Then, he sent her back to Elegance Gardens.
When Olivia entered the villa, he stood outside for a long time and waited for her room light to turn off before leaving.
Olivia heard Mrs. Simmons knocking on her room door while still asleep the following day.
“Miss, Miss, something bad happened.”
In a daze, Olivia struggled to open her eyes and staggered to open the door.
“Mrs. Simmons, why are you so anxious early in the morning?”
Mrs. Simmons grabbed her arm and handed the phone to her. “Miss, quickly read this news. You are in the headlines!”
The headlines?
Olivia did not care. It was not the first time she had made the headlines.
Then, she heard Mrs. Simmons say, ‘You and Mr. Freeman are on the headlines, saying that you two have an illegitimate son.”

Olivia was wide awake. She looked closely at the headlines and froze.
[The Newlywed Mrs. Quinton and Mr. Freeman Are on an Outing. The Family of Three Looks Close!]
“Miss, what the hell are you doing? Is that your son? How come you and your ex-husband…”
Instead of answering Mrs. Simmons’s questions, she quickly ran to look for Zac.
No one was in the guest room. So she went to the study but got no response from inside even after knocking on it many times.
‘Could it be that Zac misunderstood?’ Olivia thought.
Just as Olivia was worried, Zac got upstairs using the railing embedded on the stairs with a bowl of scrambled eggs on his plate and saw the flustered Olivia. He asked with concern, “Liv, what’s wrong?”
Olivia heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing him. “I-I thought you saw the news and left in anger.”
Zac chuckled. “I know you well. Why would I get mad about it?”
“But it was so outrageous. I didn’t think anyone would notice US,” said Olivia.
Zac grabbed her hand and took her back to the room. “Come. Have a seat and eat the scrambled egg.”
“I’m not in the mood…”
Zac beckoned Mrs. Simmons to leave the room. Then, he placed the scrambled egg plate on the table and pulled open the curtain. “It’s not someone who noticed you. Someone was stalking you on purpose instead and trying to make a scene out of your matter.”
“Stalking me on purpose? Who is it?”
Olivia pondered and guessed. “Are you talking about Dorothy?”
“Jimmy is also another suspect besides her. They both want to see US in trouble the most.”
Recalling Jimmy, Olivia stood up in a panic and said, “Oh, gosh! I forgot about him. All I was thinking about was accompanying Sam on his
birthday. We are doomed!”
Seeing her at a loss, Zac smiled. “Liv, why are you so nervous? It’s all right. That’s not a problem. I’m sure we can handle the situation. Moreover, wouldn’t we know exactly what they are trying to do?”
“How could you still be in the mood to make fun of me? This is serious. Jimmy will learn about this and will stop you from taking over the Quinton Group.”
Then, Zac’s phone rang. Zac motioned to Olivia to wait for a second and answered the call on the balcony.
“Mr. Quinton, we found out the person who spread the news is Dorothy, but … President Quinton might also be involved.”
