When Love Becomes a Thing of the Past (Zoey) novel Chapter 44

Chapter 24 Caught 

The man she saved back then? 

Olive recalled that she was twelve. She had rescued a man who had been unconscious in 

the snow. She was sure that if she had delayed, the man would have died in the snow. 

At that time, the road was blocked by the snow, and it was almost dark. The temperature was very cold and his body was shaking. She took the man to a nearby cave and lit a wood to keep him warm. However, he was still very cold. 

Olive had taken off her clothes and hugged him tightly, using her body temperature to keep him warm. And that was how the man survived. 

Thinking about it now, she was only twelve and had only wanted saving a human. But in the eyes of others, it turned out to be a different picture. 

North was right. Gabriella and Derrick were really dirty. 

Olive replied, 

“Eight years has passed. I can’t remember the man anymore. Even if he stood in front of me, I probably wouldn’t recognize him. But when he woke up, he had given me a diamond 

pendant. He said he was gonna come back for me.” 

“What about the diamond pendant?” North asked. 

“Uhm, I kinda lost it.” 

North sent an perplexed emoji. 

“Haven’t you read any romance novels? According to cliche, the man you saved must be a prince of a wealthy family. 

Olive really didn’t know where the diamond pendant had gone. She remembered that she had locked the pendant in the drawer in her room, but when she had opened it again, the

endant was gone. 

North sent a message to Olive. Derrick’s phone was tracked. The call he made was connected to a cottage on the outskirts of LA, and aunt Rebecca was there. 

Olive looked at the address sent by North. She had already planned on meeting up later 

with Derrick and using herself as a bait. 

Derrick hid Aunt Rebecca in a cottage in the suburbs. Great! She had found the location. 

Olive sent a big kiss emoji and ended the chat. It was already night and it was very 

convenient for her to move around. She wanted finding Aunt Rebecca immediately. 

Regarding the matter of Gabriella slandering her, she was gonna find a good time to teach 

her a lesson. 

The priority was to rescue aunt Rebecca. 

When Olive was about leaving, her phone rang. She looked down at the screen and saw the 

name, 

“Mr. Augustine.” 

It was Elvis. The phone rang for about three times, but Olive didn’t answer the call. 

Soon, a message pop in. She clicked on it and it was Elvis’s message, 

“fallen asleep?” 

Olive stared at the screen, it was his usual concise and strong style. She scrolled up and read their previous chats. 

She realized that she had really fallen for his company. Now that she had recovered, she needed to build a high wall and keep him out. So he would not have a chance to hurt her. 

Olive didn’t reply to the chat. She placed her phone in her bag and headed to the cottage in 

the suburbs.

Hvis had already returned to Los Angeles. As soon as he arrived at the airport, Harry and Raven had gone to pick him up. 

Sitting in the luxurious limousine car, Elvis stared at the phone in his hand. He had waited 

long for her reply. But none was forthcoming. His face clouded with a frown. 

Harry who sat beside him let out a laugh and said, 

“Bro, why did you come back two says earlier than planned? You even flew overnight. And there’s some beauty imbedded in your phone. I’ve been watching you since.” 

Elvis didn’t take his eyes off his phone, and didn’t also respond to him. 

Raven smiled and added, 

“Elvis doesn’t have time for more beauties. That’ll be be adultery right?” 

Elvis raised his legs and kicked Raven. 

11 

Ouch!” Raven muttered amidst laughter. 

Elvis placed a call to Red Villa. 

When the housekeeper, Uncle Henry, answered the call, Elvis asked, 

་་ 

Where’s Olive? Is she asleep already?” 

Raven wiped the dust that Elvis’s shoes had imprinted on his trouser. 

“You don’t wanna admit that you’re already falling for that girl.” 

11 

Young master, ma’am Olive had just left.“Uncle Henry has replied. 

11 

Okay.” Elvis hung up the call. 

Harry was already exploding, 

Damn! What’s the matter with your lady. Bro, it’s already eight o’clock in the evening. You
