Goodbye Friend 53CHAPTER 053 OLIVIA’S POV After Adrian left the room, I let out a small sigh, I didn’t even understand what was going on anymore. First, he beat me up, then he claimed he called the doctor for me. And now, he was forcing me to use his driver.. And since when did he start hitting women? He’s a billionaire. Did the money really take out a chunk from his soul, making him so heartless? Well, it looks like I can’t continue with the spending spree before he cuts my hand off the next time. The look I saw on his face this morning, Maybe he was feeling guilty about last night. I mean, any man who beats his wife is a coward. But I had bigger things to worry about this morning, like how I was going to get to the I hospital when Adrian’s driver was only instructed to take me to the pharmacy. And knowing Adrian’s staff, they wouldn’t dare bend a rule–not for anything, they were too loyal to him. I had to come up with a plan. But first things first. I grabbed my phone from the bedside table and called one of the maids, asking her to bring me some medicine because my head was pounding relentlessly. It felt as if someone was hammering nails into my skull. After a few minutes, there was a small knock on the door. I got up slowly, every movement causing a dull ache in my body, and went to open it. The maid handed me the medicine, her eyes lowering to the floor, avoiding mine. I wondered if she had heard the sounds from last night. If she pitied me. If she thought I was weak for enduring this. But I had no time to think about that. I took the medicine, mumbled a quick “thanks,” and shut the door behind her. I walked over to the center table and placed the medicine down before heading to the bathroom. As I brushed my teeth, I stared at my reflection in the mirror. My bottom lip was slightly swollen, and there was a faint bruise near my temple. I touched it gently, wincing at the pain. This was my life now? A billionaire’s wife, covered in bruises and plotting her escape to the hospital like a prisoner planning a jailbreak.” Successfully unlocked! I swallowed the drugs dry before stepping into the shower. The cold water stung against my bruises, but I let it wash over me, hoping to cleanse not just my body but the overwhelming emotions swirling inside me. 1/3 CHAPTER 053 After getting dressed, I sat on the edge of the bed, deep in thought. I needed to get to the hospital without Adrian knowing. If I simply told the driver to drop me at the pharmacy and then left through the back door, it’s obvious Adrian would find out. My fingers instinctively reached for my back, tracing the sore spots where his hands had been last night. Would he do it again? Would he punish me like a misbehaving child? I let out a shaky breath. Maybe it was just a one–time thing. Maybe he regretted it. But then again, he did say it was the consequence of me screwing up. But going to the hospital wasn’t screwing up. I wasn’t his prisoner. Right? Shoving those thoughts aside, I grabbed my bag and walked downstairs. As I entered the dining area, I saw Adrian at the table, sipping his coffee while scrolling through his phone. His sharp eyes lifted the moment he noticed me. “Olivia, come here,” he commanded. I hesitated, dreading whatever he had to say. My heart clenched as I forced myself to walk toward him. “I hope you’ve learned your lesson,” he said, his voice as calm as ever as if we were discussing something as mundane as the weather. I said nothing, clenching my fists at my sides. “You see what happened yesterday? That’s what happens when you don’t listen. So before you try another silly game, just think about what happened last night.” He turned his coffee cup slowly in his hands, his expression unreadable. I fought the urge to scream at him. To tell him he was a monster. But what would that change? Nothing. I Instead, I exhaled sharply and said, “If that’s all, I’ll be leaving now.” Without waiting for his response, I turned and walked away. I could feel his gaze burning into my back, but I didn’t stop. I didn’t look back. Outside, the driver was already waiting. As I approached, he opened the car door for me. I slid into the back seat, my hands gripping my bag tightly. The ride to the pharmacy was short, just outside the estate. When the car stopped, I glanced up at the building, H&B Pharmacy. stared at the name through the window for a moment before speaking. “I’ll be back soon.” The driver gave a small nod, his eyes meeting mine through the rearview mirror. I stepped out of the car and walked inside. The familiar scent of antiseptics and medicine filled the air. The receptionist looked up and smiled. 2/3 CHAPTER 053 “Good morning, how can I help you?” she asked. “I need some painkillers,” I said. “And… can you show me to your restroom?” “Oh, sure! Please follow me.” This wasn’t my first time here, but I asked anyway so it wouldn’t seem suspicious. As I followed her down the hallway, my eyes darted to each door we passed, searching, and scanning. Then I saw it. The emergency exit. My heart raced. This was it. My way out. The receptionist finally stopped and pointed. “The restroom is the last door on the right.” “Thank you,” I said, my voice even, controlled. She turned and walked away, and I waited. Just a few seconds longer, until I was sure she was out of sight. Then, without hesitation, I made my way to the exit. Pushing open the door, I stepped outside, the fresh air bitting my face like a newfound freedom. 1 had gotten away from the driver. Now, my next journey was to the hospital. 33
