Olivia was utterly disappointed. She knew that he wasn't a kind person, but she had never expected this kind of cruelty from him.Now, she realized that she didn't know much about him. "Eve, you know what? On the day of the car crash, I was making a meal at home because it was Ethan's birthday …" she recounted.Everly drew a few tissues for Olivia to wipe her tears off. The tissues were soon dampened because Olivia couldn't stop crying.Olivia continued, "Ethan never celebrated his birthday because he shared the same birthdate as his sister. He's always in low spirits on his birthday."I racked my brain to come up with an idea to make him feel better. I remember I spent a lot of time decorating the place."Yet, before he came home, all I received was news of my father in dire condition after a car crash."She placed her hand on her chest, trying to catch her breath. "I once thought of ending the bad blood between us with my death."Now, I regret it. Why does the person have
To Everly, Olivia was a bright person who grew up with a good upbringing. She was a proper person who upheld the right values.She never used underhanded schemes. Even if she was born into a rich family, she didn't look down upon ordinary people.It was normal for Ethan to fall for a confident and sophisticated person like Olivia.As a woman herself, Everly liked Olivia, too. There were a lot of times when Everly was embarrassed of herself when she compared herself with the upright Olivia.However, the woman standing before Everly didn't feel like the Olivia she knew at all. Now, she was like a doll in a breakdown. Her beautiful eyes were devoid of emotions, sending chills down Everly's spine.Everly said, "Liv, what are you talking about?"Similar to a madwoman, Olivia cried and smiled at the same time.Her perspective shifted completely because of the pictures.Now, she finally understood why kindness was the opening for others to bully her.She wept. "He won't help me to look for
Olivia became agitated upon hearing Everly's words.An ominous glint danced in Olivia's eyes as she said aloud, "Connor is innocent. But my dead child is innocent, too! The person who should've died is him!"She rubbed her throbbing chest with a contorted expression. "If he hadn't been born, my child wouldn't have died.""Silly girl! Why do you have such extreme thoughts? Liv, listen to me, I am a realist, but I do believe in fate."Everything that's happening is destined to be. Your baby has become an angel sooner than most people. "If you look into the sky, he might be watching you. He wants you to live a good life, not waste your time doing the things you will regret later on."Think about the hardships you've gone through. I bet you can't bring yourself to see others experience the same thing, do you?" Everly asked.Olivia looked back at Everly icily. "Do you know what I went through the past year? "Why does my family have to be ruined? Marina is living happily with her f
A few days ago, Ethan found Leo, but he didn't inform Olivia about it.He flew to another country.He had something to settle there. But it was also because of something else that was important.He wanted to take Leo back to the country personally.He figured that Olivia would be happy to see Leo.Noticing the smile on his face, Ethan quickly shook that idea off. He thought, "Whether she'll be happy or not, it doesn't matter to me. "I found Leo because I want to take control of her life and death. That way, it'll be easier to torture her."Ethan spent a few more days abroad. He suddenly received news of Leo's disappearance.They had reached an agreement before this.Ethan sent Jeff's medical reports to Leo, who shared his professional opinion about it and agreed to perform the surgery.Yet, Leo vanished in thin air when Ethan was going to take him back to the country.Brent reminded Ethan, "Mr. Miller, Leo's acting weird."Ethan appeared calm, but his eyes were dangerous
Jeff survived the car crash, so Ethan provoked him. That resulted in Jeff getting a heart attack. Jeff was in a coma in the end.Olivia tightened her fists as resentment flared in her eyes.It was getting late. Kelvin drove her to the airport.She had a simple meal at the airport. It didn't matter to her if Jeff was able to regain his consciousness.As long as she was alive, she would never let Ethan and the others live in peace!She wouldn't be able to live long anyway. So she didn't mind the idea of bringing a few people down to rock bottom with her.Olivia waited in the waiting room for a while. She checked the landing hour through the schedule to head out of the room five minutes before the plane landed.It had been sunny without snowfall in Aldenvine for the past two days. Thus, the plane landed on time.Ethan took the VIP exit out. When Olvia was going to walk up to him, she noticed the person walking next to him.It was Chris. Although she had met him only onc
Olivia knew who it was without taking a look at the man.Ethan was wearing a suit that perfectly outlined his built figure. The glint in his eyes was dangerous, as always.She could recognize him through his sharp jaw alone, too.His cedar scent wafted her nose, creating an intimate atmosphere in the back seat.She stifled the urge to shove him away for her big plans. She broke the silence first. "Where have you been?"Now that she had gotten over him, she showed no interest in his life.She wouldn't take notice of his social media updates nor check his Twitter account repeatedly, let alone click his profile picture again and again.Had Ethan not informed her to pick him up from the airport, she wouldn't have known that he had been abroad."Work." It was a succinct answer.He wanted to talk about Leo, but it would ruin the atmosphere.Olivia was sitting on his lap. Her body was warming his thighs.In addition to the closed space, their intimate posture was a fluttering sce
Her eyes met Ethan's deep gaze. A faint light shone on his face. It cast a glow on half his face while the other half was shrouded in shadow. It reflected his conflicting personality. He could be an angel sometimes. But he could also be a demon. Olivia was not sure if he would agree to her request. It was his child's first birthday party, after all. His child, which he had with another woman. Their engagement party was postponed. But Marina brought the birthday party forward to announce her status and identity to the world. She had already sent out invitations to every rich and powerful person long ago. She wanted everyone to know. It was apparent that the ex-wife would not be welcomed at the party. Ethan did not say anything. But his naturally prideful temperament made her more nervous than ever. She didn't even realize that sweat was seeping out of her clenched fists. He looked at her seriously and said, "Fine." Her whole body relaxed after she got a positi
Ethan placed his hands on both sides of her. He leaned in slightly and trapped her.He loved the feeling of being in control of others. And Olivia was like his prey with nowhere to run. He looked down at her with an aggressive look. He lifted her chin with one of his hands and kissed her. "If you have any complaints, suck it up." He was a tyrant, emotionless and unhinged. Suddenly, Olivia noticed a blood stain on his left arm. The stain was slowly growing larger on his shirt. She finally found an excuse to stop this. She quickly pushed him back and said, "You're hurt." Ethan subconsciously tried to hide from her prying gaze. "It's nothing, just a scratch." "You're bleeding so much. There's no way that's a small wound."You must've broken some stitches. We need to get it bandaged now." He raised his eyebrows. "You do it," he said.She didn't mind helping him bandage his wound. It was better than having sex with him. She was able to hold him off from having sex wit
