Even After Death Chapter 165
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

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

"A deal?" Olivia looked at Ethan, confused.She had nothing to offer him, so how was she supposed to make a deal with him?The cramped space made it difficult for her to breathe. Even her back was sweating due to the heat.Ethan bent over slightly. The water droplets dripped on her cheek from his strand of hair, leaving a cold stain on it."Stay by my side, then I'll wipe the slate clean with the Fordham family," he proposed sternly.His proposal repeated in her head before she asked calmly while meeting his eyes, "Stay by your side as what?"He paused momentarily. "I can give you anything aside from the title of Mrs. Miller."She said clearly, "So you want me to be your mistress?"The disgraceful word displeased him.He kneaded his eyebrow while explaining, "Aside from a title, we can get along like how we did in the past.""The past …" She chuckled.Olivia was aware that she should be the meek party in order to win some favor for herself from the negotiation.However, his

Olivia shut her eyes. She was prepared for the slap, but the expected pain never came.By the time she opened her eyes, he walked away while holding the gray suit she had chosen.He slammed the door shut with a loud thud, leaving her alone in the room.She slid onto the floor as her knees became weak.A moment ago, she was so livid that she didn't realize she was sweating.Her body was trembling, too. But she didn't know if it was out of anger or fear.Ethan's gaze was so frightening that she thought she was never going to make it until tomorrow.It was her first time reprimanding him ever since they got together. She bet she was the first person to do that to him.She patted her chest. Her racing heartbeat wasn't able to calm down until now.A few minutes later, Madam Burgess rushed into the bedroom. Looking at Olivia's pale face, Madam Burgess sighed. "Mrs. Miller, what did you do? I've never seen Mr. Miller this angry before."Olivia finally regained her composure. She t
