Chapter 78
Olivia trembled with anger. She knew Dorothy was lying, but she had no proof.
"Dorothy, you told me yourself! You told me about the car accident in jail this morning!"
"I didn't..." Dorothy hid in John's arms and said cautiously, "Johnny, I've never been to the jail..."
"You came, and I..."
Before she could finish, John snapped, "That's enough, Olivia. Haven't you done enough? You couldn't just lie about cancer and bribe the nurse, now you have to try to accuse Dolly?"
"I didn't lie or bribe anyone. I'm really suffering from lung cancer!"
John threw the report in Olivia's face. "See it for yourself. It's written on the paper.
As Olivia shuddered, she crouched and picked up the crumpled paper.
When she saw the word 'pneumonia, her legs turned to jelly, and she almost fell to the ground.
She could not explain herself. She had no way to defend herself!
"I didn't... I didn't lie, Johnny. Why don't you believe me?"
John looked at her coldly and emphasized each word he said, "I only believe in evidence!"
Tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes in despair. She opened her mouth to explain, but she swallowed her words back down.
the man she had loved for seventeen years trusted outsiders more than he had trusted her.
She repeatedly repeated with all her strength, "I did not lie!"
"Liv, you can blame me for this, but... Liv, you can hit me if you want, but don't accuse me, okay?"
With that, Dorothy approached Olivia. She grabbed Olivia's hand and used it to slap her face. "Olivia, your can slap me if you hate me. I'm willing to bear it, but I love Johnny, and I can't hide my love anymore." Olivia tried to pull her hand back, but Dorothy was holding onto it tightly, so she accidentally touched Dorothy's face again.
It was only a light touch, yet Dorothy screamed in pain.
John quickly hugged her lovingly with his arms, carefully checking her cheeks. "Dorothy, you're too kind."
Johnny, it was Liv who brought me into this circle. I owe the Larson family and Liv for her kindness. Things wouldn't have turned out like this if I hadn't fallen in love with you."
With that, Dorothy fell into John's arms in tears.
Watching her performance, Olivia froze. Tears shimmered in her eyes as she held her chest, trying to gasp
for breath.
She was heartbroken, and it hurt.
Dorothy was a vicious woman, yet she was an angel to John.
However, as his honest wife, she turned out to be a vicious woman to him.
Suddenly, an unknown strength struck her, making her dash up to Dorothy and slap Dorothy while she pulled Dorothy's hair.
"Vicious woman! You killed my parents and Uncle Wallace. You destroyed the Larson family and
snatched my husband, yet now you say you owe the Larson family their kindness? Don't you feel guilty saying that?"
Dorothy cried out in pain and looked ugly when she wailed like that. However, that worked on John. She had gained his sympathy successfully.
He reached forward, grabbed Olivia's wrist, and slapped her.
"Olivia, you're so mean. You are good at accusing others. Why did I ever marry a vicious woman like you?"
That slap dumbfounded Olivia. Blood seeped out of the corner of her mouth as she looked at the man she loved in despair. She scoffed. "John, I was blind for falling in love with you. I can't believe I loved you. for seventeen years!"
