    “Z.”

    Olivia could tell that Z was upset, despite her speaking as if she was unaffected.


    However, she did not know how to say it.


    Outsiders should stay out of other people’s rtionships, but she could not ignore them


    because it started because of her.


    Z came over and sat beside her. She looked at her bandages with sorry. “Sis Liv, were


    you going to keep this from me until I called?”


    “I… I didn’t want you to worry.”


    “I know, but how can you go alone? I think of that punk as a brother too. I won’t let things


    slide if anything happens to him.”


    With that said, Z took her hand, bit her lip, and said, “Sis Liv, I’ve recovered. Don’t keep


    secrets from me anymore. Let’s face it together, okay?”


    Olivia was silent for a moment before bringing the subject back. “Z, there’s something I


    was about to tell youst time but was interrupted.


    “Ken once said you’re someone he wanted to protect.”


    Z froze, looking at her in disbelief. “Are you kidding me?”


    “I’m not. He said it when you blocked the knife and were hospitalized for me.”


    Olivia was a little guilty as she spoke.


    Ken did say he had someone to protect, but he did not name them.


    However, she was confident that her judgment would not be


    wrong.


    Z paused for a few seconds before smiling wryly. “Sis Liv, I barely knew him at the time.


    How could he possibly say such a thing?”


    With that said, she got up, walked to the window, and sighed. “I’m sure I’m not the one he


    wants to protect.”


    “Z…”


    Olivia could not go on after hearing this.


    She was afraid she would make more mistakes as she spoke.


    She knew what Z was worried about, so she did not want to talk about that night and rip


    open Z’s wounds.


    At this point, Olivia felt like everything she did was wrong.


    “Z, it’s gettingte. Hurry home and rest.”


    “Sis Liv.” Thinking Olivia was angry, Z hurriedly grabbed her hand. “Are you… mad?”


    Olivia stared at her for a few seconds before bursting intoughter. “Z, you’re the one who


    should be mad.”


    Z blinked at her and said with a pout, “Sis Liv, will you let me stay with you tonight?”


    “No, go home and rest.” Olivia pointed to her broken leg. “Look. My leg’s still hanging.”


    “But…”


    “Be good. I’ll worry less if you go home to rest. By the way, where’s Fred?”


    The mention of Fred reminded Z. “Oh, I locked him outside…”


    Olivia was speechless.


    Z opened the door, called Fred in, and exchanged pleasantries.


    “It’ste. All of you should go home. Wilbur will be here all night. I’ll be fine.”


    With that said, Olivia looked sheepishly at Fred. “Fred, please take care of Z.”


    “Okay, sure.”


    Z wanted to protest but did not want Olivia to overthink, so she said nothing.


    Once everyone was gone, Olivia let out a sigh of relief,y down in bed, and soon fell


    .


    asleep.


    The next morning.


    She was in a daze when she suddenly heard someone calling her in a mutter.


    “Liv?”


    When she did not respond, she heard another call. “Liv?”


    n?”


    She snapped her eyes open, metn’s clear eyes, and said happily, n, did you just… call


    me Liv?”


    denied. “No, you misheard it.”
