Chapter 763: Chapter 742: Tell Me If You Feel Suffocated or Not!

Julie Harrison decisively closed her mouth. Facing Ivy Aretha’s eloquence and Oliver Thompson’s shameless thick face, which he had just learned from Michael Gordon, she thought it was more appropriate to shut up. Otherwise, there would be no chance for her to speak.

"Ahem, Mr. Thompson, may I ask you a question?"

Oliver always gives people the impression of indifference and seriousness. Among the men Alette Larson knows, Oliver is the most difficult to approach, compared to Michael Gordon’s unrestrained and Jaysen Smith’s indifferent and gentle demeanor. In Nurse Alette’s eyes, Oliver is a living representation of the King of Hell.

Several times she secretly complained behind his back, that only someone like him could bring out a cold-blooded doctor like Lucas Sandy. She used to be afraid of even Lucas Sandy, not to mention Oliver Thompson. But seeing him in a good mood now, she couldn’t help but pluck up some courage and wanted to ask him something. After all, Oliver Thompson is Lucas Sandy’s boss, and he should know the most about him.

"Do you want to ask if Lucas has any women outside?"

Oliver looked at her with a playful raised eyebrow. His usually cold eyes revealed a rare-look of a teasing smile. That meaningful look made Alette Larson feel guilty immediately, "No, no, I was just asking if Lucas has been injured?"

At first glance, Lucas seemed like a man who was abstinent and somewhat frigid. As for having women outside, Alette Larson believed that the probability of it happening to him was slim.

"Injured?" The smile in Oliver’s eyes deepened, and he glanced at his own wife in his arms. He grinned and said, "Wifey, you never cared about me so much during all these years of marriage. She hasn’t even married him yet, but she’s already so concerned and distressed. Comparing to that, I feel so lost!"

Julie Harrison: "..."

"What are you feeling lost about? You caused my father’s death, imprisoned me, and I never had the heart to kill you. In the end, only I secretly escaped, my love for you has surpassed even fatherly love. Is such a great gesture not enough to make up for a simple ’I love you’?"

Oliver Thompson: "..."

She said her love for him surpassed even fatherly love?

Incredibly shocked, an unspeakable joy surged into his heart. Oliver almost screamed with excitement, shaking his hands desperately: "Julie, so you mean, when you ran away from home alone back then, it was because you couldn’t bear to kill me for your father’s revenge?"

For Oliver, this realization was almost insane. He almost drove him into depression at that time because of this matter. He thought she had let go of her hatred, but then she ran away.

The feeling of persevering and then hearing the other person give up, and then blocking him, was not something a man who had given his heart could accept!

For a long time, he had been searching insanely for Julie. He even involved many innocent people because of this. He didn’t even know how he survived that time!

When he saw her again later, she was kidnapped with Bella Gordon as Ivy Aretha. When he heard the news, he didn’t even have the mood to vent his emotions. He was only worried about her safety. Because of this incident, he and Michael Gordon fought their first battle since childhood.

After their reunion, he realized that he loved her more than he thought. In order to get her to change her mind, he even used weapons without hesitation. Ever since then, he instinctively chose to ignore any questions about why she left, and kept reminding himself that as long as she came back to him, nothing else mattered.

Over time, he seemed to have stopped caring about why she was so determined to leave him. But now that it was mentioned, the desperate feeling back then was so vivid in his mind. After Nalan Harrison’s accident, he knew that their relationship was going to reach its end. After all, he was her father. Whether he was the main culprit does not matter anymore.

He was indeed terrified. So after Nalan Harrison’s funeral, Oliver Thompson ordered Julie Harrison to be confined. His first thought at that time was that he was afraid she would do something stupid. The reason was that his heart was focused on investigating the real killer, so again, he ignored her.

At that time, she refused to eat or drink, and didn’t speak to him except for demanding a divorce. In the end, he promised that after she handled everything, she could decide their fate. She only started eating then. He thought that as long as she ate properly, everything would be fine. However, he didn’t expect that once he let his guard down, she would disappear from his sight without a trace, as if evaporated from this world.

He never thought that she would hate him that much. Such a well-behaved woman hated him so much that he couldn’t even hold her back. Since that day, he had been searching for her like a madman until they met again. That’s why the questions-"Why did you leave?" and "Do you really hate me that much?"-echoed countless times in his heart after their reunion but never dared to ask, fearing that the originally cold relationship would become irreconcilable.

Finally, after taking steps one by one, they returned to their original hopes. Unexpectedly, he also reaped such a big surprise.

Julie Harrison looked at the stunningly handsome face, which was filled with an indescribable expression due to excitement, and suddenly realized that she, like Ivy Aretha who she had always envied, was a happy girl in this world.

Only that she was too slow to react, and Oliver Thompson was too introverted, so much love had to be deeply dug out through mutual torment.

"Otherwise, why do you think I left? To take revenge?" Julie Harrison looked at the man’s wide eyes, her heart softened and her face filled with a smile. "If I wanted to take revenge, wouldn’t it be a better opportunity to stay with you? There’s no one to take revenge on if I run away, right?"

Fine and tender delicate fingers reached out and gently touched the man’s somewhat old cheek. At this point in the conversation, eyes met, and silence spoke volumes!

Yes!

If she wanted revenge, she could have just stayed by his side. Why go through the trouble of running away?

He always thought that her love for him ended the day Nalan Harrison died. It was only now that Oliver Thompson knew that it had never stopped. In all these years, he was still the lucky man from youth to adulthood.

"Julie..."

Wanting to say something, Oliver Thompson choked and couldn’t even say a word.

"Ahem, Alette, I think you better not pry. This questioning of yours did not get any results, and the couple performed a deep love story right in front of you, loving each other to death. Tell me, don’t you feel dejected?"
