Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 133

Chapter 132

Olivia’s words rang in Ethan’s mind.

“Look, the snow tonight is so beautiful.

“Today is the day our baby died, Ethan. Have you ever spared him a thought this past year? Even for just a moment?

“I thought he was only a tool for you to exact revenge on me.”

Ethan had it all wrong. She thought Olivia’s target was Marina, but he didn’t think about Olivia’s dead child.

She purposefully picked today for her revenge. It was so that she could sacrifice Connor to her dead son on the day he passed. That was a great way to get back at Marina and himself.

Ethan was anxious and furious. Olivia was still the same person she used to be; she had never given up on her extreme thoughts!

His heart went through a roller coaster of emotions in the span of about a minute. His palms were already drenched in cold

sweat.

He sprinted to the top floor as fast as he could. The first round of the fireworks show was over. The next round was in the middle of preparation. At this moment, it was like the entire world had fallen silent and dark. Only the sound of Ethan’s running could be heard.

There was no one there on the deck of the second floor, so Ethan ran to the edge of the deck. The ocean was still roaring, waves still crashing onto the hull of the ship.

Ethan didn’t see anyone. Was he too late?

He felt a chill sweeping over him before it spread from top to toe.

Suddenly, Mina’s voice came from downstairs. She was excited to tears. “How did you get here, Master Connor? You scared me to death! I’ve found him! I’ve found Master Connor!”

Hearing that, Ethan was relieved and slumped onto the ground.

He was sweating all over from the running, but the wind made him feel chilly. He put a hand over his chest, where he could feel his heart beating very quickly.

Smiling, he covered his face. It was the first time in his life that he felt such intense emotional swings.

He didn’t notice Olivia, who was hiding behind a wooden barrel. She looked at the snow that was falling from the sky.

She gave up on her plan to cause Ethan deep hurt at the final moment. Honestly, she didn’t have the heart to take Connor’s life. He was still so young. He shouldn’t have to pay for the crimes of Ethan and Marina.

How evil would she have to be to be able to murder a child?

On one hand, Olivia hated how weak she was. On the other hand, she felt ashamed that she tried to do something like that. She turned all the guilt she had into an explanation. Maybe there was a lot of misunderstanding between her and Ethan. Connor shouldn’t have to pay for these mistakes. Her plan used to be dying with Connor in the ocean, but there was one more thing she hadn’t done. That was to uncover the truth of what happened all those years ago.

After Ethan left, she dragged her tired body back to her room. Ten minutes after that, Ethan appeared in her room.

His appearance would mean that he had guessed that she was the one who took Connor. She didn’t remove the necklace she gave Connor when she let him go.

Ethan was the one who designed the necklace. Of course, he would know who it came from. There was still the half eaten cake and the candles on the table in the room.

Olivia was prepared to be tortured by Ethan for what she did. She had given up the best chance she had at hurting him. She

thought the only thing waiting for her was endless torture from him.

His footsteps got close, and the room was completely silent. Raising her head, Olivia saw Ethan eating the leftover cake without speaking. He just kept eating

He never liked eating cakes. But here he was, eating cake without asking for an explanation. After he put down the fork, he took a tissue and wiped his lips. Then, he walked toward Olivia.

Olivia thought he was still going to torture her, but he stopped before her.

He said in a deep voice, “One day, you’ll realize that not going through with it today was the best decision you could’ve made.
