Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 134

Chapter 134 Only When You Truly Care Do You Feel Fear

I found Oliver sprawled out on the ground in just a thin shirt. In this freezing weather, he's definitely gonna get sick sleeping like that.

I shook him awake. He groggily opened his eyes and got up. His hair was a total mess, and his bruised face looked worse than a homeless guy's.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked.

He scratched his head, making his messy hair even worse.

"I wanted to find Ethan for a drink. But when I got to the door, I thought it was too late. I'm single and can be reckless, but he's got a wife. He can't be like me. Besides, his stomach's not great. And you definitely wouldn't let him drink, so I just finished all this beer here," Oliver pointed to the empty beer cans and said, looking all defeated.

I knew he was hurting because of Bella, and I didn't know what to say.

"Where's Bella? Tell me." Oliver suddenly looked up, staring at me with hopeful eyes.

But I hadn't heard from Bella for two days, so I just shook my head.

Oliver's head drooped again. He picked up an empty beer can, crushed it, and looked totally miserable.

"I've searched everywhere she might be, but I can't find her. Her phone's off. She's determined not to see me."

Seeing Oliver like this made me feel uncomfortable too.

I still remembered clearly the scene when he proposed. They looked so happy back then. But I didn't expect things to go south so fast.

"Can't live without a woman, huh? Look at you." Ethan's voice came from behind me.

I stepped aside, and Ethan walked out the door, standing next to Oliver.

Oliver, sitting on the ground, looked up at him and saw the injury on his head.

"How'd you get hurt? Did you two fight?"

We exchanged a glance and stayed silent.

Oliver looked between us for a moment, then suddenly gave a bitter smile.

"Emily isn't Bella. How could she fight with you? You're so happy now, so it's easy for you to judge me. I wish Bella would come back and fight with me."

I couldn't stand seeing him like this, so I suggested calling Bella to ask.

Hearing this, Oliver's eyes lit up with hope, looking at me expectantly.

But the result still disappointed him. Bella's phone was off.

Actually, I wondered if Bella might be with Zachary. But I didn't dare say it out loud. If that were the case, I didn't know what Oliver might do. Oliver just sat at our door. I made breakfast and called him to eat, but he wouldn't. In the end, Ethan dragged him to the car and took him away.

Not long after they left, my phone buzzed. It was an unknown number.

"Emily, it's me."
