Initially, Olivia had no intentions of telling this matter to an outsider.
But Colin had been helping her out. He was even sketching a plan for her future.
That was why she told everything to him honestly.
He was slightly surprised upon hearing that. “So the mastermind wanted Mr. Miller to choose betweenyou and Marina?”
“Yes. Colin, the plan you told me is tempting, but this is the only matter that I can’t let it slide.
“She set my family up, and I almost died because of her. My father’s reputation is ruined.
“Yet I don’t even know who she is. How can I just leave like this?”
She clenched her fists. “She finally pulled up a trump card after planning it for so long. Many peoplewere sacrificed because of
this.
“It hurts every time I think about it. I don’t know what I have done wrong. How did I offend such aperson?”
Colin said softly, “Perhaps you’re not the one to blame. Some people are psychos.”
Dubious, Olivia looked at him. “Colin, did you say something?”
“No. I mean, you’re a kind person. What could you have possibly done wrong?
“Even if there’s someone at fault, it’s not you. Some people are born bad.”
She shook her head helplessly. “That’s nonsense.”
He said aloud, “I’m stating facts. Olivia, you’re the kindest woman in the world. Ethan is blind for notappreciating you.
“Ethan will surely continue the investigation after hearing what you said before you jumped into the sea
“He will get to the bottom of it. So, worry not because the truth will come to light. I simply wanna seizethis chance to leave
Aldenvine.
“Ethan should be preoccupied with the rescue mission. We can plan an escape now and leave the city
“Otherwise, we won’t be able to leave once he gets himself together.”
At long last, Olivia made up her mind after dwelling in a dilemma.
She looked at Colin with solemnity. “Colin, can I trust you?”
He held her hand. His hand was rough due to calluses, but it was clean and warm.
He didn’t avoid her eyes. “Even if the world wants to harm you, I will always protect you, Olivia ”
“Why? We’re not family. And there’s nothing I can give you,” she asked.
He smiled faintly and winked at her. “What kind of ulterior motive could I possibly have? My sole wish isfor you to have a long and peaceful life”

She nodded. “Okay, Colin. Judging from my father’s condition, we can’t delay his treatment any longer.
