StarNovel
Chapter 720
In the footage, Jennie was drinking on the sofa, and a man came over to strike up a conversation. She did not
refuse and even played hard to get with the man while hanging herself around his neck.
The two whispered for a moment, then they walked out of the bar with Jennie in the arms of the man.
“I've checked on this man. He is a famous playboy in Ocean City and often goes to the bar to find women. He’s
never short of money?
Kate opened a picture. "In order to avoid incorrectly saying that the Thomas family is short of money, I deliberately
checked their family's recent finances. That day, the young master of the family went to Time to celebrate his
family's big deal. Do you think he has a motive to take pictures of Jennie and blackmail her?"
Olivia felt a buzz in her brain and her mind went blank instantly.
This was not the Jennie she knew. She had never noticed any traces of a man near her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was so reluctant about blind dates and was always yearning for her ideal relationship.
They had been friends for three years and close enough to share the same bed, yet after they returned to Ocean
City, they slowly became strangers.
Now, it was already to an extent that Olivia could not imagine any more.
Seeing how silent she was, Kate took back her phone and poured a cup of tea for Olivia. "Drink some tea to calm
down. I guess you got deceived pretty badly based on your face right now."
Olivia took the cup over but did not drink. She continued to freeze on the spot.
After a long while, she finally spoke with a hoarse voice." How did you know about the blackmail?"
Kate shook her head speechlessly. "You told me that someone took pictures of her. What other outcomes could
there have been? Obviously she was threatened."
'Right. What else could it be?’
Olivia was aware that she was just trying to search for any possible flaws in Kate's explanation.
She wanted to destroy all evidence that Kate provided and tell her that Jennie did not deceive her.
However, she could not find anything in defense.
Suddenly, she snorted. "You really came prepared."
“You wouldn't see me for no reason, so I purposely investigated everything related to Jennie Sutherland in case you
ended up accusing me.”
Kate looked at her. "I hate being accused of things."
"Well, you told her to install wiretapping devices at my house before this, no?"
"Yeah, true. I did."
Olivia had no idea what to say at that moment.
Jennie was not as good as she thought, and Kate was not as evil as she perceived.
"Seeing how sincere you are, I shall remind you that your brother and Dorothy are hostile to each other. Go back to
where you belong if you don't want to hurt him, and stop helping Dorothy."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKate lowered her eyes and took a sip of her coffee. "I won’t leave, and I will protect my brother. You don't have to
worry about it."
There was no point talking too much, so Olivia just let her be.
She did not plan to stay further and put her cup down. “Take care."
After saying that, she turned away and went downstairs.
"Phoebe."
Kate ran towards her. "Can you promise me something?"
"What is it?"
"Don't tell my brother that I’m still in Ocean City. I don't want him to know.”
Olivia nodded. "Okay, I won't. I hope that you will tell him yourself one day."
"Definitely."
After leaving the cafe, Olivia felt distressed.
She started to question her own judgment of people. 'I don’t even know who is good or bad and what is the truth
anymore.'
She was starting to lose trust in humans after whatever happened with Jennie.
At that moment, she received a call from John.
