Chapter 213

“Huh?” Olivia was confused.

“Rainie Jameson is not my fiancee.” Zac walked toward Olivia until he was by her

side and held her frail shoulders gently. He bent down to look at her and repeated what he just said.

Why was Zac explaining things to her?

“Oh.” Olivia was still frozen to the spot. Her response was apathetic and blunt.

The image of Zac being furious yesterday was still clear in her mind. For him to be so gentle today… What exactly did Zyla say to him?

Before Olivia could ask, Zac smiled. “Zyla only told me why you wanted to cut things off with me. Nothing else.

“The Jamesons wanted us Quintons to marry into their family because they wanted to be more influential in Ocean City. That’s why they wanted Rainie to marry me.”

Then, Zac looked at Olivia, and with overflowing gentleness in his eyes, said to her, “I didn’t agree to it. My life should not be tied to the Jamesons.”

Marriages for benefits between the rich had always existed, and if Mr. Larson had not loved Olivia the way he did, she would have also been handed odd into a marriage of benefits as well.

A marriage that had no love was more like a grave than a grave itself.
