Chapter 2: You're not going anywhere tonight.

Delicate kisses fell, and Olivia responded clumsily. The straps of her nightgown slipped down to the crook of her arm, and Liam's gaze fell to the nape of the girl's neck, exposed by her tilted head.

As if something had struck a nerve, Liam suddenly stopped moving.

His chest rose and fell in gusts with his hot breath, and his voice was already hoarse when he opened his mouth, "Go back to your own room!"

Without a moment's hesitation, he got out of bed and sauntered into the bathroom.

With the sound of water coming from the bathroom, Olivia drifted back to her senses.

The searing heat of the room gradually dissipated, and Olivia wondered if she had just been a little impulsive.

She's living again, but Liam doesn't know anything yet.

This sudden one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn in her attitude would not fall in anyone's eyes as a genuine act.

She was walking away when the bathroom door opened.

Liam came out wrapped in a bathrobe, his short hair messy on his forehead and water beading on his chest.

Seeing Liam like this for the first time, Olivia was actually a little overwhelmed, her eyelashes fluttering with moisture.

She lowered her head with averted eyes, suddenly realizing that she was somewhat... Clothes... Undressed?

Panicked, he pulled the covers over his neck.

The scene fell into Liam's eyes in another way, and his eyes were heavy with a meaningful stream of light.

Just now, she was pulling his tie and kissing him. And now she's scared like a deer in headlights.

Elope, go on a hunger strike and throw yourself on your own accord.

Lucas! She would really do anything for Lucas!

Damn, he's crazy jealous.

"Liam ..." Olivia's voice was soft and sticky.

Irritable!

All of this woman's delicacy, gentleness, and stubbornness did not belong to him!

Liam took a document from the safe and threw it on the bed, "Here's the dissolution of the engagement, and tomorrow morning, Carter's arranging for you to leave."

He changed his clothes and closed the door, afraid that if he stayed a second longer, he wouldn't be able to resist taking back what he had just said, wouldn't be able to resist tying her to his side so that she couldn't leave for the rest of her life.

Dissolution of Engagement ... Don't. In this life, she's going to stay by Liam's side, whatever he says.

Olivia rolled out of bed in a hurry and chased him down the stairs without her shoes.

Liam turned around, and his heart shook with pain at the sight of Olivia darting out barefoot.

Can't she wait for that?

"Olivia, I'm talking about tomorrow morning!" Liam's air pressure around his body lowered to an extreme, his face as heavy as ink, "Tonight, you're not going anywhere!"

The gate was flung shut with a startling thud.

Olivia chases after him and pushes the door open, where black-clad bodyguards block her path.

A moment later, the sound of a car starting came from the yard.

Olivia knows that she literally can't get out of this door after Liam says she's not going anywhere.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have gone on a hunger strike to force Liam to let her go.

The thought of a hunger strike made Olivia feel uncomfortably tight in her mouth and acid in her stomach.

"Ellie, I'm hungry for food," Olivia shouted at the house.

"Hey, hey Olivia, I'm on my way." Ellie returned excitedly.

Olivia sat at the table and wolfed it down.

It's so hard to be hungry, it's so brain-dead to suffer this for that scumbag Lucas.

"Olivia, you can't eat like that when your stomach is empty after two days of starvation," Ellie said worriedly from the sidelines.

Olivia lifted her eyes and looked at the kind woman in front of her; in her previous life, she had lost her temper a lot in this house and had often given the servants of the house a hard time, yet Ellie still treated her well.

Thinking about her past life, I realize there really weren't many people who treated her genuinely.

Her adoptive parents forced her to marry Liam for a few hundred million dollars.

The sister who is around to advise her every day is actually calculating every step of the way.

Lucas fell in love with her against all odds and treated her just to use her.

The hunger strike, the marriage dissolution agreement...the timing of this was the year she turned twenty.

She and Lucas had an elopement date and were intercepted by Liam on the pier. Lucas was hospitalized with injuries, and she was taken back to Parkview Heights and locked up.

So she and Liam made a fuss about breaking off the engagement and going to see Lucas. Liam was annoyed by her; simply living directly in the company does not come back, and she really had no choice but to make a hunger strike.

Liam eventually compromises and agrees to break off the engagement.

The next day, she gleefully took the dissolution of the marriage agreement to Lucas to show him.

As it turned out, Lucas told her that Liam had threatened him with bringing down the Johnsons if she dared to be with him and claimed that he would send Lucas to prison.

He says he doesn't have the strength to fight Liam right now, so he wants her to go back to Liam and help him steal Liam's company's trade secrets so that when the Johnson family grows stronger, no one will be able to stop them from being together.

Now, it seems that this is a setup; Lucas originally did not want to take her away, and this bitter trick is to make her willing to help steal information.

What a good calculation.

Since God had mercy on her and gave her the chance to be born again, she must cherish it.

In this life, she would make those who hurt her pay and cherish the people in front of her.

...

That night, Olivia slept poorly.

When Olivia closed her eyes, they were filled with images of the grimy basement and the deathbed.

In the morning, the sun shines through the veil, and the room is warm.

Looking at everything in front of her and smelling the familiar scent on her pillow, Olivia just confirmed that living again really wasn't a dream.

Packing up and going downstairs, breakfast was already set on the table.

"Olivia, do you want coffee or milk today?" Ellie stood at the table, her apron still on.

"Olivia, are you going to go back to the Garcia family later or something else? Do you need me to arrange for someone to pack your bags?" Carter had also been waiting in the lobby for a long time.

Packing her bags? Olivia almost forgot that Liam said he'd arranged for Carter to drive her away today.

"Is it OK to go anywhere?" Olivia did wonder how he'd accounted for it with Carter.

"Liam said you could leave today and put me in charge of arranging for someone to get you safely to your destination."

Carter was also puzzled by the fact that when Olivia had been brought back two days ago, Liam had made it clear that she wasn't allowed to take a step away from the villa.

I'm willing to let Olivia go again this time, seeing as how Liam left in a huff last night; I'm guessing there was another falling out.

In her previous life, she had obviously threatened to leave on her own with death, and now that Liam was saying to go wherever she wanted, she felt a little sad again, "Going to Lucas, will Carter arrange that too?"

After saying that, Olivia regretted why she had gotten angry with Carter.

"Olivia, are we leaving now? Just give me the location, and I'll drop you off. I'll arrange for someone else to deliver the luggage later." Carter mentally pinched and replied respectfully.

Obviously, Liam let Olivia go, I don't know how she got upset again; Carter is afraid she's going to lose her temper again.

"OK. Ellie, pack me breakfast, and then I'll eat it on the way."
