Chapter 727

When they got off the rollercoaster, Sam and Olivia were fine. However, John looked pale and sat on the bench to

rest.

"Mr. Freeman, it seems that you are getting old. Let’s go to the aquarium next time. It’s quiet and safe there."

John rolled his eyes and said, "Ungrateful brat."

However, Sam hid behind Olivia and made a grim face. Tm saying this out of kindness. Look at Olivia. She is fine.”

John lifted his head and looked at Olivia. "Why are you calling her by her name and calling me Mr. Freeman

instead?"

"You look older than Olivia."

"I’m older than her, but not by much. Stop calling me Mr. Freeman."

Sam shook Olivia's arm and asked, "Lady, what do you think?”

Olivia did not care about John's emotions. She pinched Sam's nose lightly and said, "You can call him whatever you

prefer.”

"Um...” Sam seemed to have considered the matter of fact that John was financially supporting him. So, he decided

to change the way he addressed John. "Can I call you John, then?"

John was satisfied with that and nodded. "Okay.”

Olivia looked at the time. "John, are you alright? We are going to the haunted house next."

The haunted house?

John looked at her in surprise. "Aren't you afraid of ghosts?"

"Sam wants to go, so I'm accompanying him. I suppose it won't be that scary."

Sam tapped his chest again and said, "Lady, don’t worry. I'm with you. The ghosts can't hurt you."

Furious, John poked the little brat's forehead and said, "How old are you? Can you protect her?"

"How about you?"

"Of course I can, little brat.”

Olivia glared at John. "John, how old are you? Why do you have to argue with a child about this?"

John was stunned and felt wronged. However, he could say nothing about it and could only bear with it.

"You'll spoil the child sooner or later."

"He has never been loved and doesn’t even have a family. How can he be spoiled by just one day?"

John was dumbstruck and did not know what else to say. He took her by the hand and said, "Didn’t you say you guys

want to go to the haunted house?"

Olivia tried to shake off John’s hand but failed.

To avoid affecting Sam's mood, Olivia could only keep her voice low as she warned, "Let go of my hand!"

"No. There are too many people in the amusement park. I’m afraid you might get lost."

Not knowing they were talking, Sam dragged Olivia into the haunted house and said, "Lady, this haunted house is

rumored to be the scariest haunted house in the nation."

Olivia froze, and her palms were sweaty.

She would never agree to go if she knew this was the scariest haunted house.

The light grew dimmer as the little train moved into the haunted house. Olivia's body trembled more as fear rose in

her.

John held her hand and realized her condition. So, he hugged her in his embrace.

"If you're afraid, just close your eyes and hold me. You’ll be all right.”

Olivia was terrified. So, she could not be bothered to get mad at him. She could only shrink herself into his arms

and sniff the familiar scent of John. Only then did she feel a little relieved.

Suddenly there was a loud noise, like thunder.

With a shudder, she opened her eyes and stared straight ahead.

Suddenly, those thundery, scary nights came to mind.

John held her tight, covered her eyes with his left hand, and whispered, "Is this better?"

Olivia shuddered.

Worried, he asked again, "Are you still afraid? Should I take you out?"

After a while, Olivia sobbed and said, "John, maybe you have changed. However, for me, those fears have been

etched into my DNA. You are part of the fear."

John froze, and it took a long time for him to snap out of it.

He knew what she meant and squeezed her hand. He said in his hoarse voice, "Liv, I understand. I've experienced

what you're talking about."
