Chapter 732 Olivia Gets Captured
Olivia was so mad she almost coughed up blood. She felt like their actions had pushed her to the edge of insanity.
Seeing the group of subordinates shining their flashlights her way from a distance, Olivia freaked out and bolted.
"Stop right there!" Jeremy's cold, low voice cut through the night, dripping with danger and allure. "Where do you think you're going?"
Before Olivia could react, his tall figure was already sprinting towards her.
Olivia recoiled in fear at Jeremy's fierce demeanor, her steps leading her into the cold seawater. Shivering from the chill, she cursed angrily, "Jeremy, you jerk! How dare you help Adam catch me. I haven't even confronted you about last night and your lies this morning. What do you want? I'm telling you, if you try to take me back, I'll jump into the sea and die right in front of you!"
Before she could finish, Jeremy had already reached her and scooped her up.
"Let go of me! I don't want to be held by someone like you!" Olivia shouted.
"Shut up! You're really noisy," Jeremy said, his eyes indifferent.
"Put me down!" Olivia demanded.
"Put you down so you can jump into the sea?" he sneered.
"No way am I letting you take me back!" Olivia insisted.
Jeremy's voice was cold, "You think I want to take you back? Adam's forcing me. Besides, there are wild beasts on this island and sharks in the sea. You sure you won't end up as a pile of bones if you stay here overnight?"
Olivia looked fearfully at the seawater behind her and shivered. 'Can there really be sharks in such shallow waters? Is he bluffing?'
"Don't believe me? I can put you down and you can find out," Jeremy said nonchalantly. "Ever heard of the famous tiger sharks on Azure Isle? They can swallow a person whole."
After a second of thought, Olivia lost her nerve and tightened her arms around his neck, "I-I don't care what you say! I'm not scared of you!"
She still tried to sound tough.
"Really?" Jeremy glanced at her. Her angry little mouth and nervous round eyes made her look like a cute little squirrel. He sneered, "Then don't hold onto me so tightly."
Olivia blushed, "I'm not!"
"Oh?" Jeremy raised an eyebrow and deliberately loosened one arm.
"What are you doing?" Olivia's legs instantly fell into the seawater!
The icy temperature made her panic, thinking a tiger shark was nearby. "Damn it, Jeremy, why are you doing this to me?"
"I thought you weren't scared? It's just a tiger shark," He smirked mockingly.
That bad and casual demeanor was like a jerk who deliberately bullied girls.
But Jeremy was just too good-looking. The gold-rimmed glasses hid his frivolous eyes. The previous Jeremy was always ruthless but never showed it.
Now, under the moonlight, the amnesiac Jeremy was even more heartless, cold, but still very bad.
Olivia was dazzled by his sexiness and blushed from his mockery. "Are you done yet?"
"Are you coming up or not?" He was losing patience.
"Screw you." Olivia immediately got angry. "Last night, I was just bitten by a dog, but you guys, don't think you can use me as your antidote again. Jeremy, I'm utterly disappointed in you. You bad man, just wait here to die. I'm not saving you! Anyway, I'm going back to Trento City myself." She said angrily.
"Without my say-so, you're not leaving! Who knows why you broke in? You haven't explained yourself and you still want to take Alvin away. No way," Adam shouted from a distance.
Olivia was fuming and sneered, "Yeah, I broke in to kill your Alvin. I just got caught by him accidentally. I've explained myself now. Can you let me go?"
Adam was almost speechless, catching the sarcasm in Olivia's words.
His face stiffened, and he said to Jeremy, "Bring her up!"
"I won't," Olivia snapped.
"Stay still!" Jeremy, reaching the end of his patience, glared at the struggling Olivia in his arms, wondering if she had any idea where her hands were wandering. Jeremy still retained the lingering scent of her from the previous night, the memory vivid in his mind.
Even the slightest touch from her made his body react uncontrollably. Frustrated, Jeremy threatened, "And you still claim you didn't seduce me last night? I see your hands are very skilled. Do you even know where you're touching?"
Olivia looked down and wished she could cut off her hand on the spot.
Jeremy hadn't anticipated that she would accidentally touch him at his waist.
Her face instantly turned red with embarrassment. "I-I didn't do it on purpose."
Jeremy's cold snort showed his disdain.
After carrying her to the beach, Jeremy quickly threw her into the car. Olivia's thigh hit the seat, causing her pain. "Why did you throw me? It hurts, you know?"
"Where does it hurt?" Jeremy asked indifferently.
Olivia's face turned red again, and she couldn't say it, so she just glared at him.
Her small hand moved slightly down, holding her bruised waist.
Seeing her weak and angry, with a blush on her cheeks, Jeremy was stunned for a moment, but he slowly realized and a trace of embarrassment flashed under his glasses.
Olivia bit her lip, feeling even more humiliated.
Adam was standing nearby, having heard their entire conversation.
Olivia awkwardly covered her waist. "Shut up!"
Jeremy said, "You should probably get that checked out. Just needs some ointment,"
"Ointment? Easy for you to say!" She was nearly infuriated by his nonchalant attitude. It was unreasonable for him to be so wicked just because he had lost his memory, such an irresponsible scoundrel.
"Don't get upset. Save your energy, you're already exhausted." Jeremy said calmly, frowning as he touched her forehead, noticing her unusual blush.
Admittedly, within seconds, Olivia glared at him and fainted.
Jeremy turned to Adam and said, "She's got a fever."
Adam nodded, "Take her back first, lock her up, and deal with it after the fever is gone."
No one knew how long she had been unconscious, but Olivia woke up with a dry mouth.
She found a needle in the back of her hand and herself lying in bed.
Looking around, she was in a bedroom, but there were two bodyguards at the door.
Olivia was locked up again, but the treatment was slightly better than the dungeon.
She was angry inside, waiting for the IV drip to finish, and her strength to recover about ninety percent.
Olivia called to the bodyguards at the door, "I'm thirsty."
One of the bodyguards said, "I'll call the doctor and get her some water."
"Be careful. Although Mr. King treats her as a prisoner, he also said she might be Mr. DeRoss's antidote," the other bodyguard reminded.
With this, Olivia squinted her eyes, a thought flashing through her mind. "Hey, come here for a second!"
