Even After Death Chapter 78
The air froze from the tension. Chris interfered before the situation worsened. "Mr. Miller, we're all happy that Mrs. Miller is healthy."Refusing to waste any effort on Olivia, Ethan looked away and said emotionlessly, "You'd better behave."In an outburst, she let out her pent-up emotions and threw her bowl of soup at the man who thought he was always right. "Behave? Fuck you!"He was the one who pursued her and asked for her hand in marriage. His possessiveness forced her to give up on her future and freedom. Not only did he land her in the current mess, he dared to claim that she was faking her illness.The soup dripped from Ethan's tailored, luxurious suit. Seeing red, he gave her a death glare and marched up to her. Sensing a huge fight, Chris jumped in and blocked Ethan with an anxious look. "Mr. Miller, the soup must have slipped from her hand. Mrs. Miller, say something!"She straightened herself and replied flatly, "Yeah, it slipped."Chris sounded relieved. "Mr. Mil

Recalling the look in Ethan's eyes, Olivia answered quickly, "No.""That's great, then. It's just a viral infection. You may be discharged after a few days of monitoring at the hospital." Chris felt as if a burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He gave her some more advice and left after she ignored him.Olivia had already done a biopsy which had confirmed her stomach cancer, but the CT scan results this time showed nothing. She had only undergone one chemotherapy session. Although it was very effective and the tumor would shrink, it would not disappear overnight. Evidently, something was off with the results, and only someone from the inside could have tampered with it. The person who did it must have been fearless if they had dared to do it right under Ethan's nose.Who could it be? Was it Marina? Was the incident at the grave not enough that this person had to alter Olivia's checkup results?Although there were no other suspects besides Marina, Olivia still felt that

Olivia saw no sign of Ethan over the next two days, but she had Everly taking care of her while berating Ethan. "Do you think that idiot got possessed? Why does he keep acting up? First, he wants a divorce, then next, he can't accept you dating someone new. Now he's even saying that you're pretending to be sick. I think you should get some holy water to drive away whatever evil is possessing him," ranted Everly.Olivia said calmly, "He's not possessed. He's just crazy." After two days of rest, she felt back to normal other than her stomach still causing her problems. After hearing her out, Calvin suggested doing another checkup for her, but she politely declined. She just said she had already done a checkup at another hospital and was currently receiving treatment. Calvin hadn't thought much about it. He took two days to conduct investigations and came to give her an answer. "Hey, Everly. You're here too?" Calvin was wearing a white doctor's coat with a white shirt underneat

Olivia said gratefully, "Thank you, Calvin.""Don't thank me. It was our fault anyway. If word about this spreads, our hospital's reputation would be ruined." Olivia replied, "Someone was targeting me, so it has nothing to do with the hospital. I won't tell a soul. I hope that you can keep this a secret too. Don't even tell Chris. I don't want to alert anyone."Calvin nodded in understanding. "Let's put this behind us for now. I suggest that you do another checkup. I'll personally run the tests this time. If there's any problem, we can start solving it earlier too." Olivia smiled and said, "It's no big deal. Don't worry.""Okay then. These machines are radioactive, so you shouldn't be exposed to them too frequently in such a short period of time. If you want to have another checkup in a few months, then you can contact me any time.""Sure."Calvin smiled warmly and said, "You're well enough to be discharged now. I've already asked someone to deal with the procedures. By the wa

"Doctor, how is he?" Olivia's heart was pounding violently as she gripped her sleeve tightly. She was terrified of hearing the worst. "Fortunately, the nurses noticed his condition very quickly, and we were able to save him in time. Olivia, I won't keep it from you. "Your father is in a very dangerous state, and we need the best brain specialist, Leo, to perform brain surgery for him. "Otherwise … We might not be able to save him next time."Olivia's heart sank. She wanted to find Leo more than anyone else. Alas, she didn't have a wide social circle. Keith had helped her look for Leo before, but to no avail. When Jeff was wheeled out, she saw how weak he looked with his eyes tightly shut. She called out, "Dad." However, it was like throwing a pebble down a well because she received no answer.One of Jeff's hands, which wasn't covered by the blanket, looked thin and wrinkled with age. He seemed to have aged a lot over the last two short years. Except for the indwelling nee

Ethan's impression was still the same as the last time, when she'd thrown a pot of porridge at him a few days ago. She'd been furious and crazy, and she'd looked just like an angry cat.Now, she was the exact opposite of that. Standing with her head bowed, she anxiously shifted from one foot to the other. Olivia tried to overcome the discomfort and awkwardness she felt under his gaze. Softly, she said, "I want to ask you for a favor." A laugh escaped his mouth as he sat with his legs crossed, plucking out a cigarette from a box. She knew he was mocking her. "What do you want now?" He asked. Jason Yates, a rich youngster, stood not far away from them. Somehow, he was able to discern the slight difference in the way Ethan treated herAs he approached them, he said, "There's no one in this world who wouldn't want to ask Mr. Miller for help. Young lady, is this the attitude you should have when you're asking someone for help? Hurry and light Mr. Miller's cigarette for him." Jaso

Someone handed her a warm glass of milk. "If you can't drink, then don't. Alcohol is bad for your health anyway. Here, have a glass of milk instead. You'll feel better after having it." Bryan's voice was soft and gentle, similar to how a brother would speak to his younger sibling. He knew who she was and was really kind to her. Olivia smiled at him gratefully, but before she could thank him, Ethan cut in, reminding her, "You have two glasses left." His voice was as cold as his gaze. Bryan furrowed his brows at Ethan. He knew how much Olivia meant to Ethan, and if the latter took things too far, not only would his actions hurt Olivia, but he would make himself miserable too. "Fine." Olivia didn't hesitate as she reached for the second glass of whiskey. The look on her face said that there was no turning back, and she finished the drink in one go. Her stomach felt like it had been punctured by thousands of blades. Having drunk too much alcohol too quickly, Olivia couldn't

Ethan's words were harsh, but Olivia was left with no other choice. She removed her hands from his chest, and his hands moved to her clothes. However, when he took her jacket off, he realized that she was wearing a sweater and another layer of thermal clothing under it. Ethan furrowed his brows in confusion. "Are you an old lady? Why are you wearing so many layers of clothes?" Blushing, Olivia bit her lip and replied, "I'm afraid of the cold."Suddenly, Ethan realized that she must be extremely thin to look fit even under so many layers of clothes. As his palm rested on the small of her back, he could feel her spine.It was as if there was no flesh to separate her skin from her bones, and he wondered how she became so thin. The lustful thoughts he'd had just seconds ago vanished, replaced by a sheen of guilt. Suddenly, Olivia glared at him, as though she'd only just realized what was happening. In a tone that made it abundantly clear that she wasn't happy, she questioned, "
