Even After Death Chapter 640
The Miller Residence was located in the suburban area of Grovale. It was a lovely place with mountains and rivers around. Lush vegetation covered every corner along the way to the residence.The city's lights were unique. Some resembled star-shaped light strings cascading from tall plants. There were also lights shaped like mushrooms, pumpkins, various small animals, and fairy lanterns.It was like Ethan and his company had wandered into a fantasy world rather than a typical city. By the time they arrived at the Miller Residence, it was already 8:00 pm.The Miller Residence was enormous. A garden surrounded it. It was hard to see in the dark, but one could discern the silhouettes of the pruned rose bushes at the roadside. There was a rich scent of flowers in the air. Birds flew away frantically as the car drove by. The villa possessed the unique style of this city. It was brightly lit from all sides. Olivia looked at it from afar. It was countless times bigger than the villa

Olivia was prepared for the worst. She was only there to introduce herself to Janice. If Janice didn't like her, she would just leave. Before Janice could speak, a familiar voice said, "Ms. Procter, has Ethan returned?"A familiar figure appeared from the corner of the second floor. It was Nikki, who they had met in Arlandia not long ago. Ethan could feel goosebumps all over his body when he heard Nikki's voice. His expression turned cold."What are you doing here?"Nikki quickly walked to Janice's side and held her hand tenderly. She said, "Ethan, I have been keeping Ms. Procter company these past two years." Olivia finally understood why she had been so cocky. So she had been currying favor with Janice. Nikki's trump card was Ethan's mother. What a plot twist. Olivia didn't feel jealous at all. She was still trying to guess what else Nikki had up her sleeve. She felt relieved that she had already eaten at the airport. Or else, she would probably have to starve now.

Before Olivia could make sense of the situation, Janice had already walked away, leaving Olivia confused. Olivia batted her eyes at Ethan and whispered, "What is your mother thinking?""Come try some authentic Grovale cuisine." Ethan didn't answer her question. Instead, he led her to the dining room. Janice was already seated when they entered. She glanced at their interlaced fingers, and her gaze froze momentarily. Nikki brought over a bowl of soup and saw Ethan pulling out a chair for Olivia. He sat down after Olivia took her seat. Then, he brought the appetizer, which was placed quite far away, before Olivia. If he was just putting on a show as a loving husband in public, why would he do it here when there were no outsiders?There was only one explanation. It was how the two of them interacted on a daily basis, like a regular couple. Looking back at herself, Nikki was trying to curry favor with Janice, but she ended up looking like a cook. She put the soup down and s

Olivia blushed. It was true she ordered a lot of food, but she didn't finish them all. She only took a few bites of each. But her stomach was tiny, and she was bloated after that. Janice rolled her eyes and said, "Don't eat if you're full. The Millers won't go bankrupt because you wasted some food. Even if they do go bankrupt, it will have nothing to do with us." Olivia was stunned. Janice was different from what she imagined. "Sorry, I thought …" Olivia wanted to come clean.Janice finished Olivia's sentence for her. "You thought I would be hard on you, and you won't get to eat much when you're here. So, you filled yourself up before you got here.""Yes, I'm sorry.""No need. I was planning to make things difficult for you."Olivia was at a loss for words. Why was Janice such a wild card? She didn't even know how to respond. "Truthfully, I also ate beforehand because I thought I would lose my appetite at the sight of you. So, if you're full, walk with me."Olivia couldn

Ethan looked at Janice with mild surprise. "I thought you didn't care about us. I didn't expect you to be so well-informed."Janice needed to raise her head slightly to meet Ethan's gaze. She felt a little emotional when she heard that. "You were still the little kid that chased after me in my mind. But you've grown so much."Janice raised her hand to touch Ethan's face, but she stopped midway. She had always had mixed feelings toward Ethan. In the beginning, she hoped that his birth would make the man come back to her. But, all she got was his cruel disregard. That was why she resented Ethan. She had never been a good mother to him. Even as he stood before her, she felt like she didn't know him at all. Janice withdrew her hand awkwardly with a disappointed expression. "You and Leia must detest me. I've never given the both of you any love." "What's the point of saying all this now? He didn't return to you, but you gave birth to his offspring anyway and became a laughings

If anyone else said those words, it would seem cruel or heartless. But, for a woman who threw her three-year-old son down the stairs, it was pretty tame. She didn't even care about her child, much less another person's. In a way, Janice was the same as Kenneth. They only cared about themselves and the one they loved. Nothing else mattered. Janice drew some hair back to her ear elegantly and said, "That kid, she started coming over every other day since two years ago. She would go on walks with me sometimes. "Other times, she would massage my feet. I saw she had nothing better to do, so I kept her around." Ethan was speechless. "I think you're the one who had nothing better to do."He knew his mother wasn't the ladylike type. She was more like a villain. For example, she did a lot of things to hurt the woman Kenneth loved in an attempt to win him back. Naturally, all she accomplished was push him further away, to the point where they got a divorce.She spent a long tim

Ethan's gaze grew intense. "What else do you know?""Judging by your reaction. My guess was spot on. I don't mean anything by it. I just wanted to meet the two of you. But there's something I need to tell you. "People in our family are flawed. We're stubborn and dedicated. Once we fall in love with someone, it lasts for the rest of our lives. It's a double-edged sword."Janice said sincerely, "Both your father and I weren't able to teach you to love. Ethan, I don't want you to follow in my footsteps. "Love is never one-sided wishful thinking. My biggest regret was the things I did to your father. My actions caused permanent trauma to you and your sister." Her words seemed surreal to Ethan. He never imagined that Janice would say something like that. "I'll take good care of her."He paused before saying, "Since you know about Ms. Rosa, can you find something out for me? It's Liv's origins." "Oh?" Janice was surprised. "She isn't Jeff Fordham's daughter. Ms. Rosa is the on

Before meeting Janice, Olivia thought she would be a maniac. After their meeting, she realized she was wrong. Janice was just a poor woman who wasn't able to be with the man she loved. "You weren't stupid, just stubborn."Olivia didn't remember her past, but she was able to relate to Janice's emotions. It was like the same thing had happened to her in the past. "Those are the same thing. In the past, I had been a failure of a mother. Now that I'm older, I've thought things through. "You're luckier than me. You have all his love. You're the most suitable person to wear the bracelet." Olivia's eyes widened in surprise. "So you're not opposed to our relationship?""Why would I be? You're a match made in heaven. But there is something I need to tell you. "Ethan might be an outstanding person, but he grew up in our family. There are serious flaws in his personality. "Others might not be able to notice them. Only the people closest to him would be able to see these flaws."E
