Even After Death Chapter 163
When Olivia passed by Tom and Jerry, they looked at her with heavy hearts.She smiled at them in an attempt to comfort them.Jack didn't say anything. He watched her board the helicopter silently because he knew that now wasn't the time.In order not to cause trouble to the people on the island, Ethan mustn't die here. However, once he was away from the island …A malicious glint fleeted across Jack's eyes when Ethan happened to look back at him as if he sensed the danger.They met each other's eyes. The two strong men stared at each other for a second.Both of them were aware that today wasn't the end.Olivia wasn't able to bid farewell before leaving the island.She looked at the huge cherry blossom tree and the small wooden house.Martha was standing in front of her house, sending her off. The kids and the neighbors were watching her too.Olivia didn't realize when Jack left. With his back facing her, he advanced deeper into the woods like a lone wolf."Goodbye, everyo

Olivia widened her eyes.For the past few days, she had been guessing how Ethan would torture her.But …Never in her wildest dream had she imagined it to end up this way.Like a dehydrated man in the desert who finally found water, he carefully savored her lips as if he was afraid of losing them.Her heart raced.Although the sunlight was shining on his face, his eyes were shut. She couldn't read his mind.It had been a long time since Olivia received such gentle treatment from him.While she was in a daze, Ethan suddenly bit her lip.The tingling pain pulled her senses back. He asked coldly, "Are you thinking of him again?"Unbeknownst to him, he was all she could think of. She wasn't in the state of mind to think about others.She replied with a deadpan face, "No. How many times do I have to tell you? We're just friends."He scoffed coldly.Obviously, he was seeing her as his wife who cheated on him. He wouldn't believe anything she said.Not only that, he was gettin

Ethan stopped in his tracks and looked at Olivia silently.There was only the sound of water splashing from the shower.As tense as the air was, the grasp around his wrist was tight."Don't go," she lied because that was the only thing she could say.Ethan pinched her chin and commented indifferently, "You're still pleading for him."Olivia felt like she was talking to a wall. No matter what she said, there was only one thing that mattered to him—that she had betrayed and cheated on him."You're the one who betrayed me!" she thought.Frustration was gnawing at her, but she sighed when she thought about Tom and Jerry.Standing up in the bathtub, she hugged Ethan without giving a care about her wet body.The water droplets slowly damped his white shirt, but he didn't push her away.She wrapped her arms around him carefully. The moment her lips pecked his neck, his body became tense."Ethan, I didn't betray you." Her quivering voice was soft. It was teeming with sorrow and grie

Considering that it had been days since Olivia left, Calvin should've found something for her."Olivia, are you alright?" he asked with concern.After the incident on the ship, he had been worried about her. He called her a few times but it was all in vain."Sorry for making you worried. I lost contact for a few days to deal with something. I'm fine now."He was relieved to hear that. "That's great. I did find something. Can we talk in person?"Olivia sighed as she was still undergoing punishment from Ethan because of Jack.If she went to meet Calvin in person, she had no idea what Ethan would do to her.She said, "Calvin, honestly, I'm afraid of alerting the other party. I suspect that there's someone keeping an eye on me. Did you carry out your investigation discreetly?"He nodded. "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. Mr. Galloway resigned two days after Belle's death.""She resigned? What about that man?" Olivia's brows were knitted together.It was no wonder that she sens

Olivia was in a good mood as she thanked Calvin profusely, "Thank you, Calvin. You've helped me big time."Now, she had to find Belle's child.A DNA test between the child and Jeff would reveal whether he was a scoundrel or not. Calvin said, "Don't worry, Olivia. I'll look more into that man. But it seems like he has expected someone to investigate the matter."He left no traces. That's why I'm unable to find anything. I need some time."At that moment, someone knocked on the door."Mrs. Miller, are you done yet?" Madam Burgess asked."Yeah." Olivia hurriedly hung up the call and kept her phone before opening the door. "You must be hungry. I made something. You can come on down and eat." Madam Burgess was kind-hearted as usual.Considering her aching stomach, Olivia gladly went downstairs.As soon as she was downstairs, she heard Connor's voice. "Mama! Mama!" Connor, who was playing with toys, scurried toward her.Her bad mood was appeased at once. She hugged him. "Connor."With dro

Ethan returned home after dealing with the Carlton family. He initially thought Olivia would wait for him in the living room like before.No matter how late he returned home, she would always sleep on the couch in the living room.She always made sure the lights were turned on when he returned.However, the house was shrouded by darkness when he opened the door. She wasn't on the couch either.Ethan was tipsy. Before this, Olivia would welcome him home. She would grumble while looking for hangover pills for him.She was naggy, but he loved it.Unlike before, he felt cold although the heater was turned on.He opened the bedroom door. Thanks to the lightning from the hallway, he could see the bump on the bed.Olivia fell asleep a moment ago.Ethan pulled her into his embrace. The air that reeked of alcohol woke her up."You drank?"Hearing her groggy voice, he grumbled, "Olivia, you've changed."It didn't make sense to her. "Are you kidding me? You're the one who had a chan
Even After Death Chapter 169
Olivia raised her gaze to meet eyes with Ethan, who was standing by the door.He hadn't changed into his pajamas before sleeping, so his shirt was crumpled with some undone buttons.He leaned against the door frame lazily. His disheveled hair didn't stop him from looking handsome as always.Olivia was feeling guilty. She wasn't able to completely cut ties with Ethan.In addition to his unappeased anger during the day, she thought of the people from the island and was scared."I-I couldn't sleep," she explained anxiously while he slowly came up to her.She was sitting on the floor, and the light cast his shadow over her.Judging from his clear eyes, he appeared to be sober. His dark eyes carried zero emotions, so she couldn't read his mood.Olivia hastily placed the documents into the safe while stammering on her words. "I was s-simply looking around."He held her wrist tightly.Her chest tightened, and her instincts prompted her to beg for mercy. "I was wrong. I shouldn't h

Olivia was stunned for a moment. When she finally pulled her senses back, she pushed Ethan away.The fact that he had touched another woman disgusted her. That was the sole reason behind her instinctive reaction.However, he held the back of her head and deepened the kiss, rendering her defiant action in vain.Frowning, she wanted to bite him only to find that he was pinching her cheeks.Men were inherently stronger than women when it came to strength. Thus, she had no choice but to yield to him.When Olivia thought she was going to suffocate to death, Ethan finally let her go.She glared at him with reddened eyes like an angry bunny.His eyes darkened. "What's wrong? Am I not allowed to touch you?"Before she could respond, he pinched her cheeks harder as he stared at her icily.Her brows knitted at his psychopathic acts.She attempted to pry his fingers off. "Release me! If you're sexually frustrated, you can go to Marina. She's your fiancée.""Olivia Fordham, it seems lik

Warren's pale face showed a hint of pleading. "Olivia, we've gotten to know each other better in the past two years. Have you ever loved me?"Hatred was evident in Olivia's cold eyes. "Never. I pray for your death every single second of my life.""I knew it." He smiled at that embittering answer. Karma had always been there. Another sound of a gunshot surprised the birds. A pool of blood splashed over the flowers. Warren stared at the picture on the gravestone. "Mona, I've returned everything that I owe you…"Olivia's gaze alternated between the two bodies. Her heart ached as she began crying. "It's finally over, Mona. Please rest in peace."She had been waiting for this day to come for too long. When the revenge was finally over, she felt hollow on the inside. …Yarrows reached their peak of beauty during the season, dancing along the wind. Willow was chasing after Zack, her bells ringing briskly. He teased, "You can't catch me!"After weaving a garland, Alicia bec

Warren was so blinded by love that he didn't realize that Olivia had spent the last two years setting this up.The moment he saw Olivia nestling in Ethan's arms, he knew that his identity had been exposed since the beginning.It was time to end all of this.Although the Fordham family had won the fight, they sustained heavy casualties. Brandon and Deborah, together with Jacqueline, had hurt and killed countless people. Quinn became a sacrifice, never waking up again despite her young age. Olivia placed a bouquet before Quinn's gravestone. "Rest in peace, Quinn. I'll take good care of the family. Don't worry."The breeze carried a leave before it landed on Olivia's shoulder, as though trying to respond to Olivia.Douglas reunited with the family, and Natalie was finally buried in peace. It was a private funeral, but Mason paid a visit. Mason and Douglas looked at each other. They were both important to Natalie, and they finally met each other after her death. With reddene

"Avery, what happened?" Olivia inquired.She had no clue what was happening and didn't dare to go anywhere close to Louis. The only person who she got close to was Avery."Stay away, Olivia! It's too dangerous!" Avery yelled worriedly. Louis shifted his gaze to Olivia. "My experiment is going to be successful soon. That's Natalie's descendant. She has Natalie's genes in her…"Olivia's eyes widened as she finally realized why Louis had been taking special care of her. Back then, she simply assumed that it was due to her health and talent, but it turned out that he had known her identity all along!The purpose of the human modification project was to resurrect Natalie! The thought of it gave her goosebumps.To think that he had made so many preparations just to resurrect Natalie…Even Olivia was deceived. She took the human modification project at face value; she didn't think much about it! "Let Natalie go, Louis. She's been gone for years. She could be watching us from up

Olivia arrived on the island. She noticed the change in the atmosphere this time around.It was the same old scenery, but the robots that once filled the island to the brim were gone. She expected to encounter some inspection robots upon arrival, but there weren't any.Ships were docking in lines by the seashore, and most of them belonged to private foreigner organizations and mercenaries. People were coming to the island!What happened?Was Louis in danger?Although Louis wished to transform her into a cyborg, she hoped he could live regardless. No matter what field it was, no one would come before an outstanding scientist like him. It would be a huge loss to lose him.Olivia grew worried. "Calm down, Liv. A lot of people came to the island, but I don't think it's a big issue for now," Ethan reminded her.He bet that the ships were loaded with ammunition. Still, the buildings on the island were intact, and nothing seemed to be destroyed. She disagreed, "No, there should

Mason and David had a long discussion by themselves. No one knew what they talked about.But it didn't matter because it was just an extra member joining the Fordham family anyway. That was it.On the other hand, Tatiana was a little worried. If the whole Fordham family were to be added to the family registry, would her children inherit less from the Heath family?Humans were born selfish. When the event actually came to pass, everyone would be thinking about their own benefit. However, the result of the discussion between David and Mason surprised everyone.Even though David wasn't acknowledged as one of the Fordhams, he wasn't planning to change his surname to Heath.He saw himself as a Fordham because his mother married Douglas.Nevertheless, he didn't mind his family being relatives with the Fordham family.Mason was a little disappointed, but he still respected David's decision because he knew how well Douglas treated David's family.Mason asked the Fordham family to sta

Olivia and the others returned to the Fordham family. Everything was going back on track under Avery's management. Sean's leg was recovering well. He could walk like a normal person, and he didn't have to pretend to be a cripple anymore. Troy would need more time to heal, but he was making progress.David clearly seemed better than he was before Olivia left. Everyone could still hardly believe that Jacqueline almost killed everyone in the family all by herself. When Olivia returned, David asked with concern, "Olivia, Avery said that you were cursed. How are you feeling right now?""Don't worry, Dad. I'm all better now. But we think that Jacqueline's dead in the sea," she assured.He hugged her. "It's alright. Your safety is all I hope for."It broke her heart to see how time had chipped away at his physique. It hadn't actually been that long since the family was in trouble. "Any news about Mom's whereabouts?" asked Olivia. "Avery found something, but he's still trying to

Alan brushed it over, but it was enough to leave Wendell in shock. Wendell imagined what kind of life Wayne had led before this. Growing up in a slum where all kinds of people lived… People like them had never really owned anything anyway, so they wouldn't feel the pain of loss…Ever since his wife passed away, Wendell didn't really care much about Alexander's upbringing. Wendell was merely generous when it came to spending money on Alexander. But once he reunited with his son, he realized how much it could hurt to be a parent. If that marriage arrangement was Wayne's wish, Wendell was hell-bent on making it happen.…Olivia was watching the sunset painting colors to the horizon by the seashore. Although Jacqueline was dead, Olivia didn't feel happy, not even one bit. So what if the mastermind was dead? The Fordham family was still in disarray, and no one knew where Shana was.Olivia sighed softly. "You're too young to be sighing like that." Wayne suddenly appeared next

Wendell felt helpless. He was seriously down on luck.Instead of his son, he thought that he had found himself a bossy superior. It was a heartfelt reunion after 30 years of separation, and yet the first thing Wayne talked about was an announcement about his marriage rather than expressing words of concern for his family. If it were any ordinary woman, Wendell wouldn't have minded it. But the person he insisted on marrying was none other than Olivia! She was a divorced woman with four kids!On top of that, Olivia's ex-husband was Wendell's nephew! The divorced couple was somewhat entangled with each other too.Ethan and Wayne were both dear to him. What should he do? Wendell was at his wit's end. Ignoring Wendell's dilemma, Wayne handed him a cigarette. But Wendell refused, "I quit it."Wayne lit a cigarette and squatted on the ground. Instead of a ruler of a land, he appeared more like a construction worker. Wendell massaged his forehead at that. How had his son grown
Even After Death Chapter 1666
Wendell had been frail all his life. He never imagined that his biological son would have been missing for so many years. What surprised him more was that Wayne had grown up well despite hardships. Still, there seemed to be something off about this son of his.They were father and son who had been separated for years. Now that the truth was revealed, shouldn't they be hugging each other in tears of joy? Why did Wayne show no joy in reuniting with his father but seemed interested in his identity as the son of the Procter family—or more precisely, the marriage arrangement between the Procter family and the Fordham family?""Son, things are a bit complicated right now. We need to take our time to discuss this thoroughly—""Am I not your son?" Wayne's restless temperament was exactly the same as his mother's. There was no chance of dissuading him. There was only one thing in his head. He felt fortunate that he had run a background check on the ties between both families. Otherwise
