Even After Death Chapter 268
Marina was still whining when she got on the helicopter. "What a lousy designer. I spent so much money and I got a defective dress. It's all his fault I wasted so much time on such an important day." Marina had been feeling irritated since yesterday because of the dress. She didn't get a wink of sleep last night. She began to doze off as soon as she got on the helicopter. Little did she know, she was headed straight to hell on earth. Marina woke up to complete darkness. She was blindfolded, and her limbs were tied up. Where was the island? What about Ethan? What about the ceremony? Marina started to panic. "Where is this place? Do you know who I am? I'm Mrs. Miller! How dare you kidnap me? My husband will have all of your heads!" When she opened her mouth, she realized her voice resonated in the room. She also smelled something unpleasant."Somebody! Help!" "Save your breath. If yelling could help, kidnappers would be out of a job." Upon hearing the voice, Marina yelle

Marina was stunned by what the person said. She understood what the person wanted to do. "What's the meaning of this? Didn't you tell me that you wanted to work with me?" "Work with you? Someone like you isn't worth my time," the person said with a smirk. Fear began to consume Marina, and her expression paled. Her lips quivered as she said, "Don't … Don't you know who I am? My husband is Ethan Miller. He won't let you off easily if you lay a hand on me." Marina felt a sudden pain on her torso. A foot was pressing down on her waist. She had never been humiliated like this except for the time Olivia attacked her. "I'm warning you. You'd better be prepared to put your life on the line if you want to hurt me …"Before Marina could finish her sentence, the foot pressed down harder on her waist. She winced in pain. "You're the one who should know your place. Olivia is smarter than you. She didn't try to anger me." Marina finally understood that she was in the same predicamen

Marina was panicking, but Olivia was relatively calmer. Olivia was sure the outcome would be the same if Ethan had to pick between them. She could feel herself back in the freezing waters of the ocean when she closed her eyes. She could picture Ethan swimming resolutely toward Marina. That incident haunted Olivia for an entire year. She had just gotten over it. She was about to start over. "Why …" Olivia muttered. "Why what?" the person asked. Olivia raised her chin slightly. Even though she was sprawled on the floor in a humiliating position, she maintained her defiance. "Why do you have to play games with us? Do you get a kick out of it?"The person chuckled. "Of course, it's fun for me. I think seeing Ethan kill the woman he loves with his own hands will be very amusing." Olivia wanted to break through the ropes around her hands several times but held back. She knew it would be all over as soon as she broke free. "If you have feelings for someone, you should compete

The voice from the speakers caught everyone's attention instantly. All the media personnel pointed their cameras at the screen. They could see the sea on the screen. A person wearing a panda costume appeared on the feed. Nothing could be discerned from the person's voice or figure. Kelvin ran to Ethan and reported, "Our computers have been hacked."Ethan signaled to Brent with his eyes. He instantly knew what he had to do. Marina had yet to show up. It was apparent that something had gone wrong. Ethan stood with his hands behind his back and a stormy expression on his face. He didn't expect something to happen today.To pick this particular day to take action, the culprit had gone to great lengths to plan their move.Ethan instantly thought up several ways to handle the situation. Brent quietly moved away. He was going to try and track the broadcasting signal to locate the enemy. In the meantime, Ethan would be responsible for buying time. He stared coldly at the screen an

Marina could feel everyone's gaze even though she couldn't see. She cried for help, "Ethan! Dad! Help me! You have to save me. I don't want to die."Olivia wasn't feeling good. She had yet to eat breakfast, and her stomach had been aching for a while. Her forehead was covered in sweat, making the ocean breeze feel more chilly.She didn't have the energy to call for help like Marina. The rope around her waist made it hard for her to breathe. She was sure the outcome would be the same either way. Ethan chose Marina a year ago, and she knew his choice wouldn't change. She wasn't disappointed because she never had any hope to begin with.As she was in despair and thinking of her chances of escaping, she heard some noise. The audio from the audience's side was being broadcasted to them. Chloe's weeping was especially loud. "Marina, Olivia, are you two okay?"Olivia slowly opened her lifeless eyes. She tried to look toward Chloe's voice even though she was blindfolded. Chloe's vo
Even After Death Chapter 273
If the kidnappers were after money, the Carltons and Millers could easily fulfill their demands. Ethan feared that they might want something even more precious than money. Otto was in his wheelchair. His hands gripped the armrests so tightly that his veins were popping. Chris had a severe expression. The on-lookers might not know, but they did. Money was not an issue, but they could not risk exposing Ethan's true identity. Even if they had to give up on Marina, they had to protect Ethan's secret. Otto and Chris looked each other in the eye and instantly came to an agreement. Even though their family member's life was still at risk, they had no choice. They had to keep the secret at all costs. Chloe didn't know anything. She kept weeping and said, "Tell us! Please tell us what you want. We'll give you any amount of money you want." "Mrs. Carlton, your tears are truly touching. Even a stranger like me can't help but feel moved," the person said. Although the words were spoken w

Marina was facing the camera. It was as if the person was trying to be considerate. She adjusted the camera to give the audience a close-up view of Marina and Olivia. Everyone could clearly see the state Marina and Olivia were in. The diamonds on Marina's fancy dress reflected the sunlight and created a dazzling glow. The black blindfold on her face was soaked by her tears. The makeup she spent so much time putting on was ruined by her tears. Marina no longer cared about how she looked. She just wanted to live. On the other hand, Olivia was the complete opposite. It was impossible to tell how she felt since most of her face was covered. Her lips were pursed. She didn't call for help from the beginning. She didn't even say a word. Some people thought she had fainted. Others noticed the sweat on her forehead. They thought it was weird that she sweated but didn't cry. Olivia didn't have any makeup on, but her complexion was ashen. Even her lips were unnaturally pale.

Life or death didn't matter to Olivia anymore. All she wanted was for Chloe to show that she cared about her before she died. She wanted to know that her waiting had not been for nothing, that she wasn't alone in this relationship.What she wanted was actual proof of maternal love from Chloe, not just empty words of love. Olivia couldn't see Chloe's expression because she was blindfolded. She began to feel uneasy. She had already lost to Marina once. She didn't want to lose a second time. The person in the panda suit got impatient as Chloe didn't reply for a long time. He said impatiently, "Why is it so hard for you to pick between your daughter and stepdaughter? Since that's the case, I'll decide for you. Cut both the ropes!""No! I choose Marina," Chloe shrieked. The guests were dumbfounded."Did my ears deceive me? She actually chose the stepdaughter?" "So there's actually a mother who doesn't love her daughter? My eyes have been opened.""You youngsters know nothi
