Chapter 7 594 Leaving the coffee shop , Sophia got right into her SUV and left .
As I watched the SUV merge into traffic , my vision went black , and I fainted .
I woke up in the hospital .
Sarah and Claire were sitting by my bed .
What happened ? How did you pass out ? Sarah asked , relieved to see me awake .
Claire also looked relieved .
7:58 594 She must have been scared .
Her eyes were red from crying .
I sat up , pausing , then said to Claire , Could you give us a minute ? I need to talk to Sarah .
After Claire left , I burst into tears .
Sarah didnt ask any questions .
She just hugged me and let me cry .
When I finally calmed down , she asked , Claire told me something about what happened .
Does it have to do with Jake ? Sarah knew some of what happened years ago , but not the details .
She knew my dad had been sick , that Id broken up with Jake , and that Id gone into a slump .
Being in the business for so long , she had a good instinct and knew something was up .
< 7:58 594 Sarah , I was almost assaulted .
They took videos and pictures .
It was someone who was obsessed with Jake .
They sent the tapes to my dad .
He almost died .
I hugged my knees , wanting to forget everything .
Sarah went silent , shocked .
Finally , she found her voice .
That Sophia Baker did this ? I nodded .
Yes .
She used it to blackmail me , to make me break up with Jake .
I didnt know who she was back then .
She just told me about it today .
I looked at Sarah .
She said she still has the tapes and that shell send them to the press .
I cant take that risk .
Im sorry … I was letting Sarah down .
Sarah cursed .
Shes still fuming and hates to < 7:58 300 594 Im going to find Jake ! Sarah spat .
What kind of monster has this power to hurt people so much ? Sarah ! I pleaded .
Dont do it .
Hes come so far … Id been with Jake since college .
Id seen how hard hed worked to get where he was .
Sophia could easily destroy me and Jake .
If I fought her , my parents , Jake , and even Sarah would be hurt .
Sarah looked at me , anger flashing in her eyes .
She understood .
She asked me what I was going to do .
I told her my plan and apologized again .
< 7:58 594 She said it was okay , that after this show wrapped , I should go home and get some rest .
Sarah took me back to her place for the night to recover .
For the next few days , I avoided Jake and didnt stay at the hotel .
Sarah picked me up and dropped me off .
Soon it was the last day of filming , the scenes before the finale .
Wed already filmed Jakes character embracing the darkness .
The second female lead marries his enemies , he wins for the moment , but the revenge he won does not bring the satisfaction he wanted .
Then my character and I had taken control of our families .
Today , wed be filming me and Jake standing < on the city wall watching the female relatives being exiled .
Jake would say , Good thing were allies .
Otherwise , someone as ruthless as you wouldve taken me down .
Id smile coldly and fold my hands behind my back .
After my scenes were done , the director wanted to throw a small wrap party .
I didnt want to go .
I didnt want to be around Jake .
But the director insisted , and Sarah said that if I wanted to keep working , I needed to network .
During the party , the director gave me a pep talk .
We talked and drank .
Jake sat in the corner , silent .
He accepted every drink offered to him .
When the party ended , the director was taken .
home .
After saying goodbye to everyone , I < stood outside , waiting for Sarah .
She was running late .
Dean , the actor who played the second male lead , saw me standing alone and came over .
He just wanted to say goodbye and keep in touch .
I chatted politely .
He paused , looking embarrassed , and asked if he could ask me for acting advice in the future .
He said my acting was great , that he looked up to me .
I smiled .
Dean reminded me of Jake back in the day .
I was happy to help .
As Dean was about to say something else , Jake grabbed my waist , his expression dark .
He looked at Dean and said , She learned from me .
You can just ask me .
< I was buzzed and slow to react .
) 604 But Dean got the message .
He looked at Jakes hand on my waist and understood .
Blushing , he apologized and ran off .
I broke free of Jakes grip and stumbled back , leaning against the wall and glaring at him .
Wheres your assistant ? Jake frowned .
I didnt answer .
My silence must have annoyed him .
He pinned me against the wall .
I pushed him away harder , but Jake was like a wall .
I couldnt move him .
Finally , desperate , I bit him .
Jake was a little drunk , too .
He flinched and grabbed my chin nuching me harder against < grabbed my chin , pushing me harder against the wall .
Olivia , whats wrong with you ? He was wearing a t shirt .
Id broken the skin on his arm .
I glared at him , tears in my eyes .
604 Jake used to say I was made of water , that I was always crying .
I wiped my eyes and said , You have a fiancée .
Stay away from me ! I tried to push him aside and run , but he grabbed me , threw me over his shoulder , and carried me off .
He even slapped my butt .
Humiliation washed over me .
I kicked , but he held me tight .
< 7:59 604 He carried me to his RV .
The way he had me positioned put pressure on my stomach , and I started to feel nauseous .
I forced myself to stop struggling .

He put me down .
I ran to the bathroom and puked up everything Id eaten that night .
Jake stood behind me , holding my hair and supporting me .
When I was done , he handed me a glass of water .
I rinsed my mouth , feeling a little better .
But I still wanted out .
I tried to run , but he caught me again .
Let go of me , Jake ! I yelled , struggling .
Finally , forgetting that his assistant was there , I blurted out Are you even a man ? Whats your < 7:59 problem ?! 604 Jake scoffed and picked me up again , carrying me back into the RV and throwing me on the bed .
He was breathing hard .
You dont know if Im a man ? My mind was a mess .
I tried to bite him again .
He grabbed my chin .
Stop biting people .
Its a nasty habit .
As we argued , Jakes assistant knocked timidly on the door .
Um , Jake , there are reporters outside .
I think they got some pictures … Hearing that , I struggled harder .
Jake pinned me down .
Let them get pictures .
Get out ! Jake snapped .
< worked for him , but tonight he was angry .
The assistant sighed .
Jake wasnt making his money from the entertainment industry .
He could afford the fallout .
) ) He might as well go home and get some sleep and prepare a statement in case the pictures got out .
Seeing Jakes assistant leave , I started to panic .
We were alone , and things were getting heated .
Jake took a few deep breaths , calming himself .
Lets just talk .
Stop trying to run .
I glared at him .
This isnt talking .
Then I softened .
Jake , let me go .
Have your people deal with the reporters .
Ill get Sarah 604 < 7:59 ready , too .
This cant get out .
604 I had promised Sophia Id stay away from Jake .
I couldnt afford the consequences .
Why cant it get out ? This isnt the first time weve been caught , Olivia ! Thanks to you , now my fans keep sending me boxes of cherry lozenges .
They think its cute ! Why couldnt it get out ? How could I tell him ? Holding back tears , I said , You have a fiancée .
Shell be upset if these pictures come out , even if nothing happened .
What if you guys fight … Shes not my fiancée , Jake interrupted .
Our families have some business together , but theres nothing between us .
I didnt deny it to see what youd do .
He looked at me , and gave a sad little smile .
Olivia , youre so heartless .
< Tears welled up .
I knew I was heartless .
604 Three years ago , Jake had waited outside my apartment all night , only to hear my cruel words .
He had collapsed , but I hadnt visited him in the hospital .
I just went home and cut off all contact .
I told you , dont cry ! Jake roughly wiped the tears from my face .
Olivia , I cant help myself when you cry .
Before I picked up that phone , I was gonna give you hell .
But the phone only rang five seconds , and I turned into a freaking puppy .
I heard you needed money , and I wired it to you .
He buried his face in my neck .
Olivia , Im a mess when it comes to you .
Its fine .
I give up .
< Im so sorry … Breaking down , I wrapped my arms around him and cried .
I had nightmares where he was standing outside , begging me to tell him why I was breaking up with him , telling me hed do anything to make me stay .
He was always the one who gave in first .
I loved Jake , but not as much as he loved me .
Dont cry .
It hurts me .
Jake looked up , his eyes red and glistening .
I stared at him , wanting to tell him everything , but I didnt have the courage .
The RV door was knocked on again .
It was Sarah .
Olivia , its me .
Are you in there ? < 7:59 Yes ! Sarah , Im here ! This time , Jake didnt stop me .
I opened the door .
Sarah was standing there .
Jake , your assistant said you got photographed , Sarah said seriously .
I know , Jake said , straightening his clothes .
Im going to go public with Olivia .
604 Hearing that , I was horrified .
I grabbed Sarahs hand .
Sarah glanced around , patted my hand , and said , Lets talk inside .
Getting into the car , Sarah got right to the point .
Your fiancée threatened Olivia .
I stared at Sarah .
く 7:59 ( ( 614 She patted my hand , telling me everything will be all right , and turned back to Jake with , Youre the only one who can make this go away .
Sarah said that what Sophia did years ago could not be justified .
She turned to Jake , and said , Right , Mr.
Evans ? Jake stood up , looking anxious .
Did she hurt you ? Hurt ? How could I say it ? I bit my lip .
Years ago , she tried to get Olivia assaulted and took pictures and videos .
She sent them to Olivias father , and he almost died .
< 7:59 614 Sarah ignored my protests .
Sophia used that to blackmail Olivia into leaving you .
She threatened Olivia again a few days ago , telling her to stay away from you or shed release the pictures and hurt her parents .
Sarah stared at Jake , her face twisting .
Olivia thought you were a normal person .
She didnt want to tell you , afraid youd do something stupid , afraid of ruining you .
So , she kept it to herself .
You were the one who was actually hurting her .
What a joke ! Sarah looked very upset .
Jakes face went white .
Youve got to go do something about this .
Now .
Before your fiancée loses it and hurts Olivia ! Sarah said and grabbed my hand .
Lets go .
Im taking you home .
Jake didnt stop us .
< 7:59 Sarah took me to her place .
Take a hot bath , drink your milk , and sleep , she said .
614 Sarah , what exactly is Jake ? I asked , holding my milk , head down .
Sarah sighed .
You know Evans Industries ? Evans Industries , yes , Id heard of them , but never put two and two together .
Jake is the sole heir .
Sarah patted my shoulder .
I just found out tonight .
Dont worry .
Hell take care of Sophia .
I didnt sleep well that night .
The next morning , I left Sarah a note and took a cab home .
く 7:59 614 senn There was someone sitting on my doorstep .
It was Jake .
He heard me and looked up , his eyes lighting up .
He scrambled to his feet , looking uncertain .
I was exhausted .
I unlocked the door .
He asked if he could come in .
After hesitating , I nodded .
I went straight to bed .
In my own bed , I fell asleep immediately .
I woke up late in the afternoon .
Jake was asleep beside me , not touching me , but holding my hand tight .
< 7:59 My head hurt .
I shifted , and he woke up .
Are you … do you want to get up ? he asked .
I sat up and looked at him , unsure how I felt .
Is it … over ? I asked .
Yeah , its over .
Everythings taken care of .
I sent her to jail and got a lawyer .
She wont be out for years .
He looked anxious .
Did I do right ? Hold me , I said , arms open and with tears .
614 He went still for a second , then his eyes turned red .
He wrapped his arms around me .
Im so sorry … He held me tight .
< 7:59 614 I cried in his arms , releasing all the emotions Id held in for years .
