Chapter 718
The next morning.
Olivia was woken up by the birds chirping. She massaged her aching head and sat up while looking out of the
window.
'I guess I got drunk last night.
'I hope I didn’t spill any nonsense.
'I really need to control how much I drink in the future. I can't get drunk again, or else I won't be able to even
remember what I did.’
She unlocked her phone, wanting to look at the time, but she ended up seeing Jennie's message and waking up
completely.
(Pheebs, by the time you see this message, I will already be on the plane back to Clear City. I never thought that we
would become the most familiar strangers, and now that I take another look into whatever has happened, I feel
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtextremely regretful. Pheebs, I am really sorry. It was my selfishness that hurt you, and I don’t expect your
forgiveness. I just hope that when you think of me in the future, you will not be as angry with me. I do have a lot
that I want to say, but I deleted everything after typing it out because I think you will probably hate me more the
more I speak... I am now unemployed and being ignored by Ken, and I lost you as my best friend. I guess this
means I’ve lost everything. It’s karma. On the other hand, I did sell my house, but I didn't intend to sell yours too. It
was Mr. M who contacted me first. You can ask him and prove it. As for the money... I never lied to you either. It's
really not with me yet. When the money comes in, I will return it to you. Lastly, I want to remind you that Kate is still
in Ocean City, and she forced me to do the wiretapping thing before. Be careful of her... Finally... Goodbye, my
friend.]
Although she had been furious with her before, Olivia could not help but tear up a little when she saw this message.
'If Jennie didn't fall for Ken, we could still be friends, no?
'It was all because of love.'
However, she did not have the desire to reply to the message.
Their friendship had ended up like this, and she did not want to reconcile anymore. After all, she still betrayed her,
whatever the reason behind it.
The person she was worried about was Kate.
Olivia wiped her tears and dialed Kate’s number.
“Kate, it’s me, Phoebe. I want to meet you."
Kate, who was on the other end of the line, was taken aback before she said, “I am not in Ocean City.”
“You are, and I know it. You don't have to hide from me. I won’t bring Ken over.”
Her lies were being exposed, so Kate did not continue to pretend. She nodded. “Okay. 2 p.m. in the afternoon. I'll
see you at Corner Cafe.”
After hanging up the call, Olivia went into the bathroom to wash her face and took a look at herself in the mirror.
'For the sake of Zy and Jennie, I must make Kate clarify everything!'
Corner Cafe.
Olivia reached much earlier, and she had already finished one cup of coffee. Kate was nowhere to be found.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJust when she thought that she ghosted her, Kate's call came through.
“Get up and tell the barista your name. He will bring you to me.”
“What tricks are you trying to play?”
Olivia had encountered several incidents like this, so she was naturally alert.
“You are my brother's friend, so I won't harm you. Trust me this once."
Olivia could not find a reason to trust her, but in order to find the truth, she still agreed to it.
However, when she followed the barista upstairs, she slipped her hand into her bag and gripped the knife tightly. If
anything bad happened, she would pull it out and use it to protect herself.
When they reached the second floor, the barista opened the door for her. “Here you go, Ms. James."
Then, he went back downstairs.
Olivia frowned slightly and walked into the room cautiously.
“Stop looking around. There’s no ambush. I just don't want to be in the main hall."
Olivia looked at Kate, who was sitting on the sofa coldly, with her hand still in the bag.
"Was it you who hired someone to stalk Jennie and take pictures of her?”
Kate was holding her cup of coffee and she stared at Olivia. ” Will you believe me if I say no?"
