John pushed Olivia so hard that she hit her head on the corner of the bedside table. The sudden pain made her hiss.

She frowned as she endured the pain. She reached out to touch the back of her head, only

to find her right hand covered in blood. She could also feel the drooping flesh on her hand.

However, John did not see that.

He only saw Olivia raise her hand, so he thought she was going to hit Dorothy. He reflexively

pushed her away again.

“Get your dirty hands off me!”

With that, he picked Dorothy up and walked out.

When he reached the door, he stopped. His sinister eyes stared coldly at the woman on the

floor and warned her.

“Olivia, this is your last chance. If I catch you bullying Dolly again, I’ll make you suffer a fate worse than death!”

‘A fate worse than death?

‘Isn’t that what I’m already experiencing now?’

Suddenly, she remembered her brother. Ignoring the blood on her body, she stumbled out.

She ran after John and stopped him.

“Johnny, where’s my brother?”

Dorothy did not make herself clear earlier, but Olivia could guess at the half of it.

John most probably had something to do with the Larson family’s bankruptcy. The day John

locked her up, he also explicitly mentioned her brother, so she believed he had her brother too.

When John was silent, Olivia grabbed his sleeve and cried as she begged. “Johnny, will you

let my brother go? He’s only 13…”

John glanced at her in disgust, lifted his leg, and kicked her away. He said coldly, “Olivia,

you’ll never see him again if you do that one more time!”

With that, Olivia went quiet instantly as she tried to get up from the floor.

She had nothing left. She could not lose her brother too!
