Chapter 960 A Debt of Gratitude

Christoff finally let go of her and looked into her eyes. His heart instantly sank as he spoke gently. There was even a

tinge of grievance in his voice. "You can't take risks like this next time. It's too dangerous."

Olivia glanced up at the mountain and lifted her chin. "Wasn't it more dangerous just now? It would be better for

me to get down on my own than to be knocked down by them."

Christoff understood the logic behind her words. Although her actions were undoubtedly risky, she had to have

some confidence in herself. Otherwise, they would have ended up either dead or severely injured.

However, he couldn't rid himself of the fear that lingered in his mind. His mind was consumed with the thought of

what could have happened if something went wrong and the possibility that she could have been killed.

As someone who had cheated death before, this was the first time he experienced such a terrifying feeling.

He was afraid for her and thought that he might have put her in danger.

It seemed that those people were after him.

Rage filled Christoff's eyes as he wondered who was trying to kill him.

"Thanks for saving me!"

Olivia looked at him and asked, "Do you know who they are?"

Looking up the mountain, he shook his head and answered, "I have no idea, but I'll find out soon enough. Damn it,

they're asking for death!"

Olivia raised her eyebrows and said, "It might not be you. I have plenty of enemies myself too."

"No, it can't be you. I brought you here suddenly. How could they have known in advance? I come here almost

every week at this time, so they must have plotted this for a while," he reasoned.

"Do you have any idea who it might be?" she inquired.

Looking at her, he coldly replied, "Eugene is the biggest suspect."

At that, she shrugged and asked, "Have you offended him?"

"Doesn't it make sense that he got jealous and came after me because I have been hanging with his girlfriend?"

Olivia shook her head in response. "If that's the only reason, then it can't be him."

"Do you trust him that much? What makes you think that he is a good person?"

"I'm not saying that he's a good person, but I know that he's a reasonable person. He's the type of person who

won't mess with you if you don't mess with him. He might get jealous and seek revenge for these things, but he

won't go so far as to try and kill you!"

Christoff chuckled and deliberately made things difficult for her as he asked again, "Are you trying to defend him

now? I took you to the hotel yesterday, and now I'm facing this kind of situation. It's hard not to think of him."

"You helped me last night, so even if he was jealous, he would still take into consideration the favor you did for me.

However, today's incident is a different story," she responded solemnly.

"What do you mean? Is it because I took you out without your consent?" he asked.

At that, Olivia looked at him and haughtily explained, "That is not the main issue. It's the fact that I nearly lost my

life, and he won't let you go for this. You should go back to your den and lay low!"

Looking at her cute expression, he laughed and exclaimed, "Oh, I'm jealous!"

She raised her eyebrows in confusion. "Jealous of who?"

"Eugene," he replied.

After pondering for a moment, she inquired, "Is it that he is wealthier or more attractive than you that you're

jealous of him?"

Suddenly, a dark expression overcame Christoff's face as he glared at her. Then, he menacingly moved closer as

his hands gestured to strangle her. "Do you believe that I could kill you?" he seethed.

Olivia chuckled as she evaded his grasp. "Didn't you just say that I saved your life? Is this how you treat your

savior?"

Refusing to back down, he demanded, "What does Eugene have that I don't? More money? Better looks?"

After scrutinizing him from head to toe, she teased, "Seems like he's better than you in every aspect, doesn't it?"

With that, she quickly dodged away, knowing that would only enrage him further.

As expected, Christoff exploded in anger and shouted, "Don't run if you dare!"

"Well, it's not smart to stick around." Olivia laughed.

A wave of inexplicable tenderness washed over Christoff as he chuckled. "Okay, stop it now. I won't hold it against

you."

Olivia slowly moved closer and glared at him as she remarked, "You're ungrateful."

He smiled. "No, I'll be forever grateful to you."

Slightly embarrassed, she joked again, "It's okay, you don't have to be. Just remember how brave I was when I

saved you every time you wanted to kill me."
