Chapter 577
At this time, Olivia did not care too much. She buried herself in John’s arms as she held onto him tight
and said in a trembling voice, “Johnny, snake! There is a snake…”
She was afraid of the dark and even more so of snakes.
In the dark, John curled his lips slightly with joy..
He missed being needed like this.
In the past, she would have been frightened to death by the presence of a green worm on a green leaf
and rushed into his arms for protection.
However, those days were the distant past now.
Long enough to feel like a lifetime ago.
Suddenly, Olivia bit her lip and asked in fear, “Johnny, did you hear that? There was the sound of a
snake hissing, and it just climbed up on my shoulder. Take me away from this place, won’t you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Okay.”
Then, John carried her and said gently, “Close your eyes. Everything will be fine.”
Closing her eyes would shut off one of her senses, but it made her other senses more sensitive.
The snake’s hiss seemed to get louder.
She opened her eyes suddenly and saw something hanging down from a tree in the darkness and
perched over John’s head.
“Johnny, up there! Snake!”
John put her down and protected her in his arms. Then, he grabbed the thing hanging from the tree.
However, when he grabbed it, he noticed it did not feel like a living thing.
“Johnny!”
“No, it’s not a snake. It’s a rope.”
Rope…
Olivia a sigh of relief, but her legs were too weak to move, and she hugged John’s arm tightly.
John carried her again when he noticed that. “I said, don’t be afraid. I’m here, so nothing will happen to
you.”
Olivia stayed obediently in his arms and said nothing.
Her nervousness faded as they slowly walked out of the woods.
“How’s your head?”
John was startled. Olivia seemed to have recovered from the shock, and her voice was cold again.
It made him feel sad for some reason, and he wished that path in the woods could have been longer.
“My head feels alright.”
Knowing he was fine, Olivia was relieved and said coldly, “Put me down. I can walk by myself.”
He could not help but chuckle. “Do you have to dump me so quickly after you asked for my help?”
Remembering what she had just done, her ears flushed red.
“I’m afraid you’ll faint again. There’s no signal in the mountains. I can’t call an ambulance for you.”
Noticing she was embarrassed, he quipped, “It seems that you still don’t want me to die. You even

Then, he put her down.
Olivia did not want to be alone with him anymore, so she headed to the car. “Now that you’re okay, let’s
hurry down the hill. If I don’t go back, someone will be worried.”
“Who is the person you’re afraid will be worried about you?”
John followed her. Then, he pulled her arm and placed his other hand on the car. He looked into her
eyes and asked, “Is it that Xavier?”
Olivia did not know why John was mentioning Xavier, but she did not want to explain.
“So what if it is, or if it isn’t? Mr. Freeman, if you don’t take me down the mountain now, how is this
different from kidnapping me?”
Mr. Freeman…
John frowned and lifted her jaw. “That’s not what you were calling me just now.”
Just now… She called him Johnny because she was anxious.
If she had realized it, she would never call him that again.
It was because her Johnny died six years ago.
However, he refused to let go and ordered, “Call me Johnny again. I want to hear that.”
