CHAPTER 032 OLIVIA'S POV I sat there staring at the picture in front of me , my fingers tightening around the edges . of the table . How did he get this ? Was someone watching me even at Julian's place ? The thought sent a shiver down my spine . " Olivia . Olivia , " Adrian's voice snapped me out of my thoughts . I lifted my gaze to meet his piercing eyes , which held a hint of amusement as if he had already won some twisted game I didn't even know I was playing . " Did you honestly think I didn't know you were staying with Julian ? " he asked , his voice smooth yet laced with underlying authority . I swallowed hard . Of course , I should've known he'd find out . He always did . " I thought I told you to stay away from him . " His voice was casual , but the possessiveness behind it was unmistakable . Confusion flickered across my face before frustration settled in . " Let me get this straight - you're allowed to see other women , but I can't even be around another man ? " I shot back . Adrian raised his hand slightly , and my eyes followed as he twisted the silver wedding ring on his finger . " You're a married woman , Olivia . Do you know what people would think if this got out ? " I scoffed at his hypocrisy . " Oh , I guess you didn't think about that when you brought that whore into our bedroom . " His jaw twitched slightly , but he quickly masked his anger with a small , amused smile . " Why are you trying to make me the bad guy ? I'm trying to fix things , Olivia . I'm trying to bring us back together . " I exhaled sharply , my patience wearing thin . " And 1 told you , I'm no longer interested . " I grabbed my purse and pushed my chair back , standing abruptly . Adrian leaned back in his seat , watching me with a calm expression . " Since that's all you called me here for , I'm leaving , " I said . " And if I see you anywhere near me , I'll go straight to the police . " I expected some sort of reaction from him , maybe even an attempt to stop me , but he just sat there and took another sip of his wine , his lips curling into an almost smug smile . I turned and walked toward the e Successfully unlocked ! Successfully fully unlocked against the sleek floor . The moment I reached the door , I hesitated . Somoy Dout how easily he let me go didn ' t sit right with me . I glanced back over my shoulder . Adrian met my gaze and gave me a small , taunting wave . CHAPTER 032 My stomach churned uneasily . Ignoring the nagging feeling , I pushed open the door , stepping into the crisp night air . And that's when I saw them . Reporters . A lot of them . Dozens of flashing camera lights immediately blinded me , and the roar of voices filled the once - quiet street . I froze . My heartbeat pounded in my ears as I struggled to process what was happening . How did they know I was here ? Questions bombarded me from every direction . " Mrs. Westwood , can you comment on the rumors of your affair ? " " Is it true that you've been living with another man ? " " Why did you leave your husband ? Was there abuse ? " My eyes darted across the sea of faces , trying to find an escape , but the press had me boxed in . I pushed forward , keeping my head low as I made my way through the mob . " Mrs , Westwood , how do you explain this photo taken just minutes ago ? " At the mention of a photo , my breath caught in my throat .. I turned to see the reporter's phone screen , and my stomach dropped . It was the same picture Adrian had shown me - the one of Julian and me hugging . But this time , it wasn't just a private threat . It was everywhere . My pulse quickened . How ? He had shown me that picture barely minutes ago . How had it spread to the media so fast ? " Mrs. Westwood , do you have anything to say about this ? " I clenched my jaw and turned away , forcing my way toward Julian's car . I needed to get out of here . I needed to warn him . We needed a plan . But the reporters weren't giving up easily . One of them a woman in her mid - thirties with sharp eyes - was especially persistent . She trailed close behind , shoving her microphone toward me . " Mrs. Westwood , why are you avoiding our questions ? Do you deny the allegations of infidelity ? " I ignored her , picking up my pace . The driver saw me coming and opened the car door . Relief surged through me , but just as I was about to step in , a hand gripped my wrist CHAPTER 632 tightly . I spun around . The female reporter . I frowned , yanking my arm back . " Let go of me . " " Just answer a few ... " I pushed her off me , not hard , just enough to free myself . But then it happened . The screech of tires . The sharp intake of gasps from the crowd . The sickening thud of impact . I turned just in time to see her body hit the pavement . Blood . So much blood . My breath caught in my throat . For a moment , everything moved in slow motion . Her head lolled to the side , her face twisted in pain . Blood pooled beneath her , staining . the pavement in thick , dark streaks . The world around me blurred , but my own shaky hands reached for her , lifting her head gently onto my lap . I couldn't think . I couldn't breathe . " Call 911 ! " I ordered the driver , my voice shaking . He fumbled for his phone . " It's okay ," I whispered , barely able to hear myself over the chaos . " You're going to be fine . " The woman's breaths were shallow , her eyes fluttering as she struggled to keep them open . " Oh my God , " someone gasped . " She pushed her ! " another voice shrieked . Before I knew it there was a massive hold - up because of the accident and people had gathered around . Shit , I've done it this time , am screwed . I thought to myself . " Stay with me , help is on its way , " I said to the reporter as her eyes slowly closed . The crowd around us started whispering , murmurs turning into shouts . " Did you see that ? " 3/4 CHAPTER 002 " She shoved her right into the street ! " " That's Adrian Westwood's wife " My chest tightened . No , no , no . This wasn't what happened . I hadn't pushed her into the street on purpose - I had barely touched her . But the story was already forming in their minds . A scandal . A crime . A villain . And in their eyes , I was all three . I swallowed the bile rising in my throat . But the cops wouldn't hear any of that Fuck !! This was bad . Really bad . Subscribed 0 Likes CHAPTER 033 CHAPTER 033
