All Chapters of Even After Death: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

By a twist of fate, Olivia found herself in Ethan's sight at her most discomfited moments.It turned out that the Atkinses and the Carltons were family friends. The Carltons invited the Atkinses to hold shares in the Oakland Hospital. Calvin was helping Marina to scout for talents. And that was how everyone ended up at the event. However, the guests were surprised that Ethan tagged along as well. His presence took the event to the next level. And the guests flocked up to greet him.Calvin did not abandon Olivia even after Ethan showed up. He handed her some napkins, and their hands touched in a moment of frenzy.It was warm indoors. So Olivia unbuttoned her down jacket to reveal a knitted white dress underneath. It wasn't her intention to pick that particular dress, because it accentuated her figure. Lifting her head, she exposed her smooth nape. She looked lovely and doelike.Ethan noticed the absence of the mark on her neck, symbolizing their faded love. One day, he would put

It was human nature to gossip. Olivia's decision to give up her studies for a secret marriage had long become a mystery at the University of Aldenvine. Everyone was curious about her relationship with the usually aloof Keith.Although Ethan was watching in silence, she could feel the pressure from his gaze. She put her utensils down, wiping her mouth gracefully with a napkin as she addressed the guests. "Are you that curious?""Of course! Olivia, tell us! A late friend of mine even told me to visit her at the grave and update her about your secret husband when I learned about him!""Yeah, an old classmate of mine is curious about that too."Olivia scanned the room and put on a bright smile. "My secret husband is …" She deliberately stared at Ethan for a tad longer. He remained expressionless. But he was rubbing the area between his left thumb and index finger with the fingers of his right hand. She had lived with him long enough to know that he was sending her a warning—he

Keith's declaration of war made Olivia nervous. She knew Ethan was possessive, even after the divorce. He once said that he would never want to see her happy. However, she'd only embarrass Keith in front of everyone if she rejected his advance. She found herself between a rock and a hard place.Everly helped her out with a grin. She said to Keith, "Of course you can! The easiest way to forget an ex is to get a new date! Keith, you're a great guy. Take your time and get to know each other. I really hope Olivia meets someone decent to help her heal. You know, she has been badly hurt by that bastard."Everly made it sound as if Olivia and Keith were a thing. Olivia hurriedly stopped her friend. "Eve!"Blinded by revenge, Everly did not heed Olivia's warning. "Why are you acting all shy? Do you really plan to die alone after the divorce? Keith is different from that jerk! Keith, are you free these days? I'm visiting Mohe Town with Liv, but I'm a little concerned about our safety."

Marina stared at Ethan's side profile throughout the confrontation. Ethan did not like publicizing his relationship with Olivia, especially after the divorce. However, she noted that Ethan was triggered by Keith's act of drinking on Olivia's behalf.She turned her resentful gaze to Olivia when she realized divorce was not enough. It turned out that Olivia still had a place in Ethan's heart.Meanwhile, Keith was stuck in an awkward situation. A heavy silence hung in the air; none of the guests dared to make a move that might provoke Ethan. Keith knew that Ethan wanted to force him to give up on Olivia. Any man would have buckled under Ethan's threat, but little did Ethan know that Keith had fallen too hard for Olivia. It was love at first sight. She was a wholly different person when they were younger. But he was too occupied with college and studying abroad to make the relationship happen.When he returned to the country, he learned that she had quit school to get married. He wa

Olivia freed herself from Ethan's grip after Keith left. She replied flatly, "Oh, I'm doing just fine." After a few days of rest and recuperation, her complexion looked healthier, a huge contrast to her previous sickly self. He mumbled under his breath, "Right. You've always been as fit as a fiddle."She secretly snickered at him but did not attempt to add any explanation. Taking his jacket off, she said, "Mr. Miller, don't worry. I will stick to the terms of our agreement. I shall not remarry."Ethan had poured his heart into drafting their divorce agreement. Even though he gave her wealth, he destroyed her future by adding a clause to the agreement. It prohibited her from remarrying.If she ever did, she would need to pay him ten times the settlement he provided her, which would stand at ten billion. Still, she signed the agreement without flinching because her days were numbered anyway.The alcohol in her stomach made her sick. Attacked relentlessly by the sharp pangs of p
