Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman's Indifferent Sinner Wife

Ken had just returned to the country, and he did not know much about recent events, but he could feel the loneliness in Olivia’s tone and her eyes.

“Mrs. Freeman, John really cares about you.”

Hearing this, Olivia forced a smile. “Ken, I am afraid that few people can bear the way he cares about them.”

Before Ken could finish speaking, Olivia raised her hand to signal for him to stop speaking. “Tell the police to let the man from just now go. Zy’s vitals weren’t harmed, so just forget it.”

“But…”

“He was desperate.” After saying that, she pulled the quilt over Zyla. “That man wanted to commit suicide.”

“Thanks.”

Ken felt very uncomfortable when he saw Olivia acting so distant around him.
