Chapter 807 Olivia's Concealment
Olivia didn't see any change in his expression. She glanced at Adam behind him out of the corner of her eye.
Adam cleared his throat and nodded at her.
"So, you don't remember anything that happened in the month after you lost your memory?" Olivia forced a smile and asked Jeremy again.
"Yes." Jeremy nodded, noticing the deep sense of disappointment and self-mockery in her eyes, confused. "Did something special happen during that month? Or did you see me after you came looking for me?"
"Alvin, actually Ms. Smith and you already..." Adam couldn't help but want to tell him about Olivia using her body to detoxify him.
"Nothing! I haven't seen you, we haven't met at all this month."
Olivia suddenly interrupted him, her voice weak, her face losing its color. She took a deep breath and smiled, "Adam is right. I came looking for you, but after I got to the island, he locked me up."
"At that time, you had lost your memory, and Adam suspected I was an accomplice, so he didn't let me see you. That's why we never met. Today is the first time we've met on the island, Jeremy. Now that you've regained your memory, take me away."
"I'm anxious to go back and see Winnie. I don't know how she's doing with that devil Rock. I need to go back and tell her everything."
Jeremy said, "Alright! I've already met with Lawrence, and I've figured out the major events that happened in Trento City this past month. Rock, after rising to power with the Peterson Family, has been framing Lawrence in various ways. If you have any evidence against him, you can go back and expose him."
Jeremy smiled happily, looking deeply at her, slightly moved. He said in a low voice, "Olivia, thank you for not giving up on me after I disappeared and for coming such a long way to find me. I will remember this kindness."
Olivia responded with a stiff smile, her lips pressed together.
Her heart ached slightly. What else could she say? After all, the other 'kindness' had long been forgotten by him with the return of his memory.
She thought, 'Jeremy, you're a bad man. You slept with me to detoxify yourself, and you don't remember a thing? But maybe this is God's arrangement.'
Olivia forced herself to swallow the bitterness in her heart. These days were just a beautiful folly she had stolen with him.
In reality, she had given birth to Sam's daughter, and he had a fiancée, Lynn. Moreover, he was now Adam's nephew, from a prominent family. They were two parallel lines that could never intersect!
Those three days of passionate lovemaking were just an end to her unrequited love that would never come to fruition.
The dream was over, and all the beauty shattered. Olivia told herself to be rational.
Revealing what happened during those three days would be meaningless to them, only adding to their troubles.
Their relationship would become even more awkward.
Now that he had regained his memory, everything was back to square one. Those three days no longer existed, and that was for the best.
"What's wrong, Olivia? You seem very unhappy. Are you missing Mia?" Jeremy looked at her with clear eyes, hiding the longing he had felt for her over the past month, but he didn't dare to express it rashly. He observed the expression on her face.
He found her very despondent.
Clearly, he had come back to get her, and she could return to Trento City. Why wasn't she happy?
Olivia looked at Jeremy despondently, pretending to pat him as she used to, "Is something wrong with your eyes? Why would I be unhappy? I'm worried about Winnie. I've wanted to leave for a long time."
"If Adam hadn't kept me locked up, I would have tried to escape right after you left a few days ago. I wonder if Winnie is still being deceived by Rock. That bad guy Rock, he was the one who tried to kill me and push me into the sea!"
"Rock tried to kill you?" Jeremy's eyes darkened.
"Yes, I discovered his disguise and many secrets. He wanted to kill me because he was afraid I would tell Winnie."
Jeremy's brow furrowed, "I met with Lawrence but didn't ask much about Winnie's recent situation. Lawrence didn't mention much either. We should return from Azure Isle immediately."
"Then I won't keep you any longer. Ms. Smith's injuries seem to have healed quite well." Adam interjected, authoritatively, "After you have dinner, prepare yourselves. I'll arrange for a plane."
"How long does it take to fly back from Azure Isle?" Olivia asked.
Jeremy replied, "Azure Isle is off the coast of Trento City. We need to transfer twice, which will take more than a day."
Olivia clenched her fists, wishing she could appear in front of Winnie immediately.
Trento City.
In a private villa room.
Rock stood tall in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, dressed in a suit, holding a glass of red wine. He squinted and looked down heavily at the view outside.
Next to him, the ashtray was filled with cigarette butts.
The door clicked softly, followed by delicate footsteps and a pure smile, "What are you thinking about, Mr. Harrington?"
At the same time, a pair of hands wrapped around Rock's strong waist.
Ishara, wearing a thin silk slip dress, with her long hair draped down, leaned weakly and seductively into his arms, her fingers caressing his waist.
"Take your hands off." Rock coldly pulled her mischievous hands away, "I'm not in the mood today."
Ishara stiffened. She suppressed the urge to sneer and curled her soft lips, "I see, Mr. Harrington has so many women, you're probably tired of me, right? Or did Winnie finally sleep with you, and now you're not interested in me, the substitute?"
At the mention of Winnie, Rock took a deep drag on his cigar, his brows furrowing darkly.
Ishara sensed something and said, "Could it be that you haven't gotten Winnie yet?"
"Don't mention her!"
Rock turned around, grabbing Ishara's chin, scrutinizing her, and suddenly smirked sinisterly, "Don't you have a lab with all kinds of powerful drugs? The one you gave Carlos last time was pretty good, made him sign whatever you wanted."
"Do you have any hypnotic drugs? I suspect Winnie has discovered something and has started investigating me secretly!"
"She's investigating you?" Ishara's brows furrowed.
"I found a camera in my office. It couldn't have been placed by anyone else. That bitch Winnie." Rock clenched his fist, "Aren't you full of ideas? Think of a way to alter her memory!"
"Mr. Harrington, altering memory isn't that simple, unless you perform brain surgery on her. Do you think, given Winnie's wariness and dislike of me, I still have a chance to get close to her?"
"The last time we succeeded in drugging Carlos was because we took advantage of his weakness and bribed the hospital staff. This time, dealing with Winnie is basically impossible."
Hearing the negative answer, Rock coldly and irritably threw the wine glass.
Ishara looked at his twisted handsome face, showing fear, but couldn't help but mock, "So what if she found out? Are you reluctant to harm her? Winnie is a bitch who has been betraying you all this time, do you really like her that much?"
Rock crushed the cigar violently, his sinister eyes ambiguous, and sneered, "Do you think I still like her?"
