Chapter 597

"Dad!"

Zac glanced at Olivia, who was trembling behind him, and his tone softened slightly. "I can forgive that you locked me up. Why did you bring her here?" Jimmy stepped forward with great interest and grabbed Olivia from behind Zac.

He touched Olivia's face before smiling creepily. "Don't you think it's bad luck that you look exactly like a dead person?"

With that said, he narrowed his eyes and squeezed Olivia's jaw, forcing them to look into each. other's eyes. "Or is this Olivia Larson?"

Zac was afraid that he was going to hurt Olivia, so he rushed forward and held Olivia in his arms. before looking up sinisterly.

"Dad, don't go out of line!"

"Am I out of line, or are you out of line?

Jimmy looked like he had seen through them and said with a smile, "I don't believe a substitute would go out of her way to stalk me. Am I right, Ms. Larson?"

Before Zac could speak, Olivia clenched her fists, choked back her fear, and looked up, saying, " Mr. Quinton, I think you misunderstood. I'm not Olivia Larson, who you mentioned. My name is

Phoebe James."

"Phoebe James?"

Jimmy said her name with a half-smile before sneering, "Are there really two people that look so similar?"

"Yes, it's a wide world. It's not the first time I've been mistaken either."

With that said, Olivia glanced at Zac and said, "When I met Zac, he mistook me for Olivia Larson too. Otherwise, we wouldn't have gotten acquainted."

"Oh?" Jimmy glanced at Zac. "Zac, do you think of Ms. James as Olivia's substitute?"

"Mr. Quinton, what does being friends have to do with substituting? Besides, no matter how much

I look like Ms. Larson, I'm not her."

However, Jimmy ignored her and looked at Zac, taunting, "Zac, it seems he has no idea you were using her as Olivia's substitute. You're getting increasingly ridiculous!

"Four years ago, you refused to marry Rainie. And you still refused to marry Dorothy later."

With that said, he stepped forward and grabbed Zac's collar. He said through gritted teeth, "The woman has been dead for four years, and you refuse to marry for a substitute. Should I call you a romantic or a fool?"

Zac pushed him away, snapping, "You're making me get married for selfish reasons. Don't make it sound like it's for me."

"Is it not for you? Is the Quinton family's fortune not going to be yours when I'm gone?"

Suddenly, Jimmy raised his hand and slapped Zac. "Loser! Coward! You're risking the bigger. picture for a woman. Do you want to be a lawyer for the rest of your life? I'm telling you. I won't let you get away with it!"

With that said, he walked out of the basement without looking back and slammed the iron door shut.

It all happened so fast that Olivia did not even have time to process it. She was still dumbfounded for a moment.

Zac's face swelled after getting slapped. He walked to a sink nearby, spat a mouthful of blood, and washed his hands.

"Liv..."

After what Jimmy had said, Zac knew he probably would not have a chance to stay with her even if they could get out of there.

Olivia looked up at him like she had just sobered up and asked, "Zac, is your face okay?"

With that said, she walked over and touched it. Frowning, she took out a handkerchief and wetted it at the sink. Then she put the handkerchief on his left face. "Liv, I..."

Olivia pressed her lips together and interrupted, "You didn't want to marry because of me?"
