Even After Death Chapter 188
Olivia snuck out the backdoor with Jack. She also changed into new clothes. She was surprised by Jack's incredible skill in disguise. He just stuck a few things on her face and easily changed her facial features. He then added a layer of powder and made her look about ten years older. Jack's face was the same. He disguised himself as a middle-aged man. He looked completely different from his usual self. They headed to the Harmony Psychiatric Hospital. Olivia impersonated Belle's distant relative and met the hospital director. Jack did not show himself. He flipped over the metal fence with relative ease. Olivia was shocked at the sight. Even if the fence wasn't electrocuted, there were spikes on top. She didn't understand how Jack was able to pull it off. They decided to divide and conquer. Olivia told the director why she was there. The director displayed a hint of regret. "Sigh, the poor kid was sad. Her parents never visited her even though she was here for su

It was Olivia's first time in a place like this. The room was freezing. The cold seeped in from the bottom and spread through her body. It also felt like countless eyes were looking at her from behind. It took all her energy to remain standing in the room. "Don't be afraid," Jack said softly. Olivia's hands were covered in cold sweat. She said in a low tone, "We want to say our goodbyes.""Okay, but don't take too long. I'll be waiting outside."The employee left. A gust of wind came out of nowhere. It scared Olivia so much that she jumped into Jack's arms. Jack held her waist and sighed lightly. "You're not suited for a place like this. Wait for me outside. I'll be out in a while.""But …"Jack's expression was stern. "I've seen a lot of dead people, all sorts of corpses."Olivia wasn't willing to leave, no matter what he said. Jack said sheepishly, "Alright, you keep your eyes closed. I'll describe to you what I see.""Okay." Olivia agreed to his suggestion. S
Even After Death Chapter 190
Olivia had seen the bodies of old deceased people in the family. But those were different compared to this gruesome body. Even though she didn't get a clear look at Belle's face, it was enough to make her gag. Jack patted her on the back to help her breathe. "Are you okay?""I'm sorry," Olivia said apologetically. "I can understand. People don't normally see dead bodies, much less decomposed ones.""Why aren't you afraid?""I got used to seeing them." Jack's voice was calm. There was a distant look in his eyes. "And living humans are more horrifying than the dead ones." Olivia didn't know what he had been through. He only looked a few years older than her, but he was shrouded in mystery. She knew that he had to have been through a lot of suffering to become like that. Maybe she wasn't the only one that was suffering in the world. Olivia pushed down the fear in her heart and turned on the flashlight. "I'll shine the light for you. Take a look quickly.""Okay. Close y
Even After Death Chapter 191
Olivia was surprised. She didn't expect Ethan to come to fetch her. Although she had entrusted everything to Jack, she was still nervous when she got in the car. She felt like Ethan would be able to see through her right away. After they got in the car, Ethan asked something he had never asked before. "Did you have fun?""It was okay. It was a little scary. Tom was so scared he sobbed."Her expression was calm even though her words were cheery. Ethan calmly withdrew his gaze from her face. He had thought that she would become her old cheerful self if he allowed her to spend time with the boy. Their relationship wasn't the only thing that couldn't go back to the way it was. The same applied to Olivia herself. In the past, when they were sitting together, she would hold his hands and keep talking. It was like her mouth didn't need rest at all.Unlike now, she sat properly. Her fingers were holding onto the armrest. Her eyes were looking out the window. She only spoke u

Olivia asked without hesitation, "Are you not coming back tonight?" Ethan could sense a hint of joy in her serious expression. He was taken aback. Did she feel happy that he threatened not to come home? Olivia did feel a little happy about that. In the few nights that she had slept with him, there were a few times he almost lost control. No matter what he felt toward her, all she wanted was to stay as far away from him as possible. Ethan grabbed her chin and rubbed her lips with his thumb. "You don't want me to come home?"Olivia thought about how annoying she used to be. She said with a serious expression, "You're Marina's fiancé now, and your engagement party is approaching. "You must not fight with her because of me. And if rumors spread about us, it would also impact the Miller Group's stock price."Olivia tapped his hand and assured him, "Don't worry. I will not pester you like I used to. I promise to let you experience a peaceful night."Olivia thought that Ethan
Even After Death Chapter 193
After a few rounds of alcohol on the dinner table, Chris slammed his glass hard on the table. He was a soldier who survived the battlefields. He had an intimidating presence and was exuding coldness. Chris, who was usually reserved, said coldly, "If you don't want to have dinner with us, just get out." Chloe quickly held his hand. She tried to de-escalate the situation with a smile, "Are you listening to yourself? Ethan has finally come to visit."Why are you giving him this attitude? Do you think you're talking to one of your fresh recruits in the army?" She then looked at Ethan with a smile. "Ethan, please don't blame him for that. He is used to being in the army. "He still thinks of himself as a soldier even though he's been out of the army for so long." Marina also chipped in, "Dad, please understand that Ethan is usually very busy. He might have work that he has to deal with."In the past, Chris was happy about Ethan. But he started to feel uncomfortable when he foun

Chris and Otto's unrelenting barrage of words gave Ethan no chance for rebuttals. Moreover, his marriage with Marina was practically set in stone. Marina knew that Ethan's feelings for Olivia were complicated recently. She grasped her sleeve tightly. She was afraid that Ethan would go back on his word. Ethan raised his glass and said calmly, "Okay."Marina sighed in relief. A smile reappeared on her face. "Gramps, dad. I told you that Ethan would not let me down." Otto looked at Ethan deeply and said, "It better stay that way." Chris also added, "Olivia is Chloe's daughter. She can be considered part of the Carlton family. We'll take good care of her if you don't. I'll take care of things on her end. I don't want to see you contacting her starting tomorrow." Ethan's fingers tightened around his glass. His eyes darkened. But he didn't say anything. He originally thought he was only telling Olivia that he wouldn't go home because he was angry. He didn't expect it to come
Even After Death Chapter 195
Olivia thought that she no longer cared. But at this moment she realized she couldn't cut Ethan out of her life completely. She wasn't able to let go of the love she had for so many years in a couple of months. She hugged her legs and rested her head on her knees. Her head was filled with the image of Ethan and Marina sharing a bed. It pained her to think about that. She did not sleep for the entire night. She stayed up until the owl left. She looked at the cold and empty bed beside her, and she gave herself a self-deprecating smile.Her phone on the nightstand rang. She quickly accepted the call. Chloe's voice came from the other end. She kept insisting that Olivia go over to the Carltons'. She said that she had made Olivia's favorite breakfast and that Chris wanted to meet Olivia. Olivia hung up emotionlessly. But her body got out of the bed subconsciously. She hadn't eaten breakfast made by her mother in many years. Chloe, in her memories, was a kind and lovin
