Ch. 1401..1410
The doctor dressed Jack's wounds and exited the room. With an inquisitive look, he asked, "Miss, this man has a lot of scars on his body. Who is he?"
Marina gave him a stack of cash. "Don't ask anything you shouldn't. This is your fee."
The doctor's eyes lit up at the sight of so much money. He understood that Marina had to be someone important, and he should just take the money and shut up.
Understood, miss. His condition is stable. He just needs to rest for a while.
Thanks.
Marina called Tim over. "Send the doctor back."
She went back to the bedroom.
Jack was topless and lying in bed. She could see his bandaged arms while his torso was covered by a blanket.
The lighting in the basement was bad, so she hadn't gotten a good look before. She finally had a chance to get a good look at Jack.
He almost looked identical to Kurt. Marina couldn't tell the difference between the two despite having known Kurt for many years and being quite familiar with him.
She remembered from their night together that Kurt had a gunshot wound on the left side of his abdomen.
Marina grabbed a corner of the blanket, but Jack gripped her wrist tightly as she was about to pull at the blanket.
She cried out in pain.
Jack had already opened his eyes.
Marina was sure that the man before her wasn't Kurt the moment he opened his eyes. Kurt would never look at her like that.
His gaze was cold and distant. Then, realization struck.
It's you. Jack's voice was different from Kurt's as well.
Marina was disappointed when she realized he wasn't Kurt.
"You know me? Who are you?
Jack knew about everyone Kurt was close with, as Kurt would tell him everything.
He had already seen a photo of Marina the first time Kurt told him he had someone he liked.
I've fallen for a proud young lady. She's stunning when she dances. She's like an elegant swan."
Here, take a look. I took this picture in secret. She gave me a good beating because of this.
Jack remembered how excited Kurt was when he talked about Marina.
"I'll work hard so I can marry her. Why won't she fall for me?
She turned me down again. She threw out the sand I brought back from the desert. She said she would ground my bones to dust if I ever brought her sand again."""
One day, he visited Jack with a big smile on his face.
"You'll have a nephew soon. After I return from this mission, I'll visit the Carltons and ask for Marina's hand in marriage.
Then, I'll leave this life behind and start a business. I don't want to risk my life anymore."
"She said I wasn't romantic. I heard that Ethan built a whole garden of white roses for Olivia, and she loved it.
I'll build Marina a garden of black roses. I'll propose to her when I come back."""
In the end, Kurt never got the chance to propose.
Jack knew all about what happened between Ethan and Marina. Honestly, he didn't like this woman much.
He would think she was disgusting and vile if not for Kurt.
Who is Kurt to you? Marina met his cold and unfeeling gaze. She could clearly sense his animosity.
Content of Drаmąոovels.cоm "He's my older brother. My name is Jack."
Marina was stunned. "He never told me he had a brother."
Well, now you know. Did you save me? Jack remained cold.

Even After Death Chapter 1402-Marina looked at Jack's face. He looked exactly like Kurt, but his eyes scared her.
I'm not. I just…
Marina, you're disgusting. You forced Ethan to marry you while you were carrying Kurt's baby. And there's also all the despicable things you did to separate him from his wife.
Jack struggled to get up and grabbed Marina's arm.
What are you doing? Marina asked as she tried to break free.
I want to bring you somewhere.
Jack forced her into the car. Marina started to think that Jack was out of his mind. She was still on the run.
Where are you taking me?
Jack fell silent and didn't speak another word to her. The car sped along the roads in the middle of the night until they arrived at a manor.
There was a garden of black roses. The roses stood out in the white blanket of snow. novelbin "This is…"
"Kurt had planned to propose to you here. He wanted to give you and the baby a home. But he didn't get to live to see that day.
Marina looked at the roses and thought about the one time she performed in Swan Lake"" as the Black Swan."
Kurt told her with a smile that she was much prettier than the White Swan.
She never understood his taste.
He was too naïve.
That's true. Even if he came back, you wouldn't have married him, right?
Jack stared straight into her eyes. "To you, he was just a tool."
Marina had never lacked suitors. Even if Ethan ignored her, he never said anything that hurtful to her.
Jack's tone made her uncomfortable.
Don't forget. I was the one who saved you. What are you trying to say?
This is just Kurt's dying wish. Other than this, I want to take someone away from you.
Who?
"Your daughter. I know all about it. Ethan wanted to change her name. She's a member of the Stone family to begin with.
She should return to the Stone Residence with me."""
Jack had been keeping an eye on Erina all these years. He wouldn't do this if Marina truly loved Erina.
From his observations, he gathered that Marina was naturally selfish. She would only ever put herself first.
In the past, the two kids were just her bargaining chips. Even after she was dropped as the heiress of the Carlton family, she didn't treat her daughter any better.
Erina would be destined for misfortune and misery if she stayed in a family like this.
Impossible. She's my daughter. I won't hand her over to you!
"All these years, have you ever cooked a meal for her or even gone shopping with her? She didn't even get a taste of your breast milk since the moment she was born.
Then, you handed her over to a nanny. The Miller family and the Carlton family provided for her. How dare you claim to be her mother?"
When Jack found out about Marina and Fabian, he knew that things would get worse for Erina once Marina married Fabian.
He failed to kill Wayne this time. He probably wouldn't get another chance to avenge Kurt.
Marina slowly slumped to the ground and gazed at the night sky.
Did I really make the wrong choice?
She had been too greedy! She wanted things that didn't belong to her.
That was how she ended up where she was.
Suddenly, a car screeched to a halt nearby. Someone ran over. Coոtent of Drąмąոovеls.cоm "Jack!"
Marina saw Olivia rushing over and jumping into Jack's arms.
She asked concernedly, "Jack, are you okay?"
She was so anxious she had tears in her eyes. "I thought you were…"
Jack, who was completely indifferent to Marina, smiled when he looked at Olivia.
Even his voice became gentle. "I'm fine."

Even After Death Chapter 1403-Olivia wiped away her tears frantically as she repeated, "I'm so glad you're okay. I'm so glad you're okay."
Jack was with her during the hardest times in her life. He knew that she was afraid of death. She had already become traumatized.
The reason Jack helped Olivia so much in the beginning was because he found out that she was Ethan's wife.
Her family was ruined because of Kurt's dying wish.
He was just trying to atone for the pain caused by Kurt and nothing else.
Then, they went through a lot of hardships together. Both of them lost all of their loved ones. So, they treated each other as family.
That was why he gave up on trying to kill Wayne immediately when he saw that Olivia was also in the car.
Don't cry. You're all grown up. There's no need to act like a child.
He didn't want Olivia to worry. So, he contacted her as soon as he was able to.
Their intimate interaction caused Ethan to feel a little jealous. But he knew that Olivia wouldn't fall for Jack.
If not, they would've gotten together when he wasn't there in those three years. She only thought of Jack as a brother.
Marina was angered by what she saw. The man who looked like Kurt was so gentle with Olivia. She couldn't help but feel jealous.
But she wasn't as arrogant as she used to be. She learned to control her emotions.
In the past, she would've rushed over and yelled at Olivia.
Olivia turned around and saw the hint of animosity in Marina's eyes.
Why is she here?
This garden is a gift left to her by Kurt. I brought her here because Kurt would want me to do so.
Olivia glanced at Marina's legs. She hadn't contacted her since the last time they parted ways.
One reason was because she had been very busy. The other reason was because she didn't really care about Marina.
Since they ran into each other, Olivia asked, "Have you been getting used to those legs? Have there been any problems?"
Marina gritted her teeth. "Thanks to you, I can stand up again. But I'm destined to be under someone else's control for the rest of my life."
Well, no one gets everything they want. Besides, I still need to use you as a countermeasure against Fabian.
You're shameless!
This is nothing compared to what you did to me in the past.
Olivia said slowly, "You deserve this. You should be lucky that you're part of the Fordham family. Or else, you might not even be able to stand here in one piece."
Olivia had lost all her compassion for her enemies. She knew plenty of methods to torture her enemies.
Marina was furious. She looked at Ethan and Jack.
Are you two going to let her talk to me like that? What would Kurt think—
Jack cut her off. "If Kurt knew about all the things you have done, he would be horrified.
He was a very righteous man. He would never condone your actions.
Ethan was protective, as always. But this time, he was protective of Olivia.
Marina, I could care less if Olivia killed you on the spot, let alone say some harsh words to you.
You… You two…
He wore a humble smile on his face. "I'm sorry that my sister was a bother."
Olivia waved her hand dismissively. "It's fine. Take her home. Don't let her cause any more trouble."
Marina knew no one would help her. So, she didn't struggle as she left with Fabian.
Fabian stepped on the brake. "Marina, you…"
Unexpectedly, Marina leaned in and kissed him.
She sat on his lap and said seductively, "Fabian, I'm sorry. I'll be good from now on. Please don't punish me…" Content belongs to Drаmаոovеls.coм She unbuckled Fabian's belt as she said that.
He was stunned. What was wrong with Marina?
As the sexual tension rose to its peak, Marina whispered, "Fabian, can you help me with something?"
He wrapped his arms around her waist. "What do you want?"
I want you to kill Olivia for me. I'll be your woman willingly if you kill her.

Even After Death Chapter 1404-Fabian froze as he came back to his senses. He knew Marina wouldn't do it with him willingly without reason.
Are you crazy? Do you know who she is?
Marina had been stuck in the Carlton residence for quite some time and hadn't heard anything about the outside world.
I don't care who she is. She took everything from me. My parents, my child, my lover, even him…
Even though she had just met Jack, she felt frustrated when she thought about a man who looked like Kurt cozying up to another woman.
She had been the center of attention since she was young. But since Olivia showed up, everything she had crumbled away.
At the same time, Olivia's life had improved immensely.
Ethan was treating her way better than before.
As a fellow woman, Marina couldn't help but feel jealous.
Shut up. She's not who she was before. You're crazy if you think I would even try to hurt her.
Marina was confused. Olivia had been looking for her parents for as long as she could remember.
What's wrong?
Let's just say that her family stands at the top of Aldenvine. Do you know who Linus Heath is? That man is her uncle.
Marina's expression changed drastically. "What? How could she be related to the Heaths?"
The Heath family wasn't as well-known as the Miller family, but they were the epitome of power in Aldenvine.
Fabian sighed. "Sometimes I feel like you're nothing without your looks. You're hopelessly stupid.
"Mason is her grandfather. Although this information isn't publicly announced, everyone already knows about it.
Even the Millers are beneath her now, let alone our family. Also, the Heaths are known to be fiercely protective of their own."
If anything happened to Olivia, our family would disappear from the face of the planet overnight.
After hearing that, Marina got so angry she started shaking.
Back when she had just returned from abroad, Olivia was just a broke woman who needed to pawn her wedding ring off for money. But she had suddenly become Mason's granddaughter.
Marina bellowed, "Why? Why is it always her?"
Fabian looked at her coldly.
I'm not interested in the squabbles between women. Don't take me for a fool. I'm not dumb enough to do something so suicidal.
Even you aren't willing to help me. I lost everything because of her!
"Because of her? Did she force you to poison your mom? Did she force you to aggravate your dad?
Did she force you to push her into the ocean? Or to steal her husband? Her home? If I were her, you would already be dead."""
Fabian was very clear-headed. "It's true that I like you, but I'm not going to let my feelings dictate my actions.
"I've known what I wanted since I was a kid. You're with me now. If you misbehave, I have plenty of methods to discipline you.
Marina, you'll pay for trying to escape."""
She was thrown onto her bed when they got back home.
Don't even think about going anywhere from now on.
Then, he left the room to make a call.
Olivia answered, "It's me." Coոtent of Drąмąոovеls.cоm "Don't worry, Ms. Fordham. I'll watch her closely. I won't let her do anything stupid again."
The next time she crosses me, I won't let it slide.
Olivia lowered her voice.
Also, I need your help with something. Look into who tried to have my grandfather killed.

Even After Death Chapter 1405-Olivia tried asking Ethan about it, but he only told her parts of the story.
It was understandable because of the nature of his job that he was required to keep some secrets.
Mason and Linus were very important people, too.
She couldn't just ask them about classified information. She was an adult and knew how to respect boundaries.
The reason she wanted to get to the bottom of it was to prepare for the future.
She was a member of the Heath family, after all. She wanted to be able to prevent getting dragged into troublesome matters.
Fabian and the Kingston family should be able to dig something up. Fabian was able to beat the competition and surprise Otto.
He should be quite capable.
Olivia made a deal with Fabian with Marina as the prize. Fabian would be more than happy to do her bidding.
She was able to keep Marina under control with the microchip. It would also prevent Marina from acting out again.
That killed two birds with one stone.
She was finally able to relax after she confirmed that Jack's life was not in danger.
Olivia felt some emotions bubbling from within her as she looked at the black rose bushes.
She had never met Kurt, but she went through a lot because of him.
I'm sorry. My brother caused you a lot of trouble. Jack could guess what Olivia was thinking about.
"It's fine. It's all in the past now. Ethan would be dead without him, and I won't be able to have the other kids.
I wouldn't have met you. I guess this is what you call fate. Jack, what's your plan for the future?"""
Jack looked at Ethan and said, "I want to take Erina away. She won't have a happy life living with Marina."
I don't mind.
Ethan knew that Jack would be a better parent for Erina than Marina. It would be better if she were with him instead.
A child who had never felt love before needed to have a family by her side.
Ethann wasn't her father, after all. And he had a lot of history with Marina. It wouldn't be respectful to Olivia if he took Erina.
Jack was the best person for that job.
I'll arrange for it. It's about time she had her name changed.
Joy Stone. If Kurt was still alive, he would want his daughter to be a joyful little princess without any novelbin worries.
Okay.
Olivia noticed that Jack had grown closer to Ethan. It seemed like Ethan had done some work.
"Alright. It's freezing out here. Let's stop standing around. Jack, I bet you haven't eaten yet, right?
Let's find somewhere to sit down. You have to tell me why you did something so stupid!"""
Jack also put on a stern face. "Sure. Then, why don't you tell me what's going on with you and Wayne?
I would've killed him already."
Olivia patted herself on her chest. "You would've shot me in the head if not for the bulletproof window."
Both of them were still alive. That was all they could've asked for.
Olivia had found a restaurant and ordered a stew. She raised her glass for a toast.
Ethan thought about what they used to do as a couple.
"Here, Jack. Let's drink and drop all the grudges. Please don't try to exact revenge on Ethan anymore.
Coոtent оf Drąмąոоvels.coм He's with me. If he dies, my kids will be without a father."""
I didn't forget. I can't forget the hate, but I can't forget the love, either. Aren't I worthless?
Olivia was a little drunk. Her face was flushed, and she was mumbling a little.
Ethan hugged her from the side. "It won't happen again. I won't ever hurt you again."

Even After Death Chapter 1406-That night, the three of them spent a lot of time drinking.
Ethan got drunk with the two of them. Olivia held his hand with her left hand and held Jack's hand with her right.
In her drunken state, she thought of them as her brothers.
Ethan, Jack, we'll be siblings for life! We'll always be together…
Ethan quickly covered her mouth before she could say anything more.
After a night of discussion, Ethan and Jack managed to set their differences aside.
Jack understood that he was the man that Kurt was willing to die for. Kurt would definitely not approve of his actions if he had killed Ethan.
But Jack had been consumed by hatred, and he blamed Ethan for Kurt's death because he couldn't accept the fact that Kurt was gone.
The three of them went back to Olivia's villa. Jack had his own room in the villa. Ethan carried Olivia back to her room.
Although Jack was drunk, he was still conscious.
Treat her right. She really loves you a lot.
Ethan stopped in his tracks. "If I hurt her again, feel free to kill me anytime."
Then, he closed the door and placed Olivia on the bed. She had never drunk so much in a long time. In fact, she had never drank so much ever.
This was the first time he had seen her so drunk.
She bounced up from the bed and said, "Bro, where's the alcohol? Bring it over! Let's drink to our heart's content!"
Ethan's lips twitch. What character was Olivia playing?
You've finished all the alcohol. We'll get more tomorrow.
That won't do. Bring me my steed. I shall ride out and get you some alcohol.
Ethan was speechless. He could only play along.
Alright, the hour is late. Let's turn in for the night.
Olivia jumped off the bed. "I'm not tired. I'm an owl. Owls don't sleep at night."
She put her hands by her side and said, "I'll watch over you. Sleep. I'll go out and catch some rats and snakes later."
Ethan pulled her back into bed. "Oh, my dear woman, please just sleep."
No way! Sleeping at night is a travesty for owls.
I thought you were my brother.
Olivia burst out in laughter as she patted Ethan on the back. "Dude, I was just playing with you. See?
You've finally admitted that I'm your brother."
Well, if you're not sleeping, I'm sleeping without you.
Drunken Olivia was completely insane. She was a completely different person.
Bro, why don't I tell you the secret to immortality? I'm actually a deity who knows the secrets of the universe.
Ethan was amused. Olivia was absolutely adorable when she was acting like that.
Lancelot, did you see where Merlin went? New chаpter avąilable on Drаmаոоvеls.cоm "I didn't." Ethan was getting very tired.
Ah, you idiot! Merlin was captured by Morgana. Let's go save him, or else he might be in danger!
Olivia gulped and took a glass of water from the nightstand.
Ethan just couldn't sleep. So, he asked, "Aren't you going to save Merlin?"
Olivia chuckled. "I have better things to do."

Even After Death Chapter 1407-Olivia messed around for the whole night. Then, she slept until noon.
Ethan looked at the calls she was getting on her phone. Then, he turned it off.
When Olivia woke up, he had already prepared lunch. It was some chicken soup and bread.
He stood next to the stairs with a spoon in his hand. He said sternly, "No more drinking outside from novelbin now on."
Olivia didn't remember anything that happened the night before.
She just felt sore all over. It wasn't the type of pain she felt after a rough night of passion with Ethan. It felt like she fell over.
By the way… I have some bruises on my arms and legs. Did you hit me?
Ethan rubbed his temples. He handed her the phone. "See for yourself."
He thought she was very adorable last night, so he filmed it all.
After the "Knights of the Round Table" act, Olivia wrapped some sheets around her and leaped onto the table.
She yelled, "Men, our enemies are upon us. Will you follow my lead and crush them with me?"
She didn't get a reply, so she looked at Ethan. "I'm talking to you. Will you follow my lead?"
Since they were the only ones in the room, Ethan had to play along with her.
She tripped and fell when she jumped off the table. Her legs hit the table. That was why she had bruises.
Are you alright, Your Majesty? Ethan rushed over to check on her.
When Olivia saw that, she was overwhelmed by embarrassment. Ethan smiled. "Too late. I've already saved it on the cloud. You were so cute. I have to watch it again in the future."
Olivia blushed. She didn't expect that she would act like that when she was drunk.
She thought she had been drunk before, but that was clearly not the same.
Don't be shy. You were very cute. I'll keep this between us. You were up the whole night. You must be hungry. I've already helped you pack. You can go straight to the airport after you eat.
Olivia realized that she had promised to go with Ethan to bring the children home. The whole incident with Wayne threw her off.
Alright.
She could get away from Wayne with this trip.
She had just turned him down. He wouldn't just take that without doing anything.
Wayne was indeed thinking about how he could get closer to Olivia when he got the news.
Mr. Maxwell, Dr. Ophelia just left with Ethan!
Where did they go?"
He didn't understand why Wayne would be so hung up on a divorced woman. More importantly, she didn't even like him.
She's pretty and has a nice figure. The only downside is that she has been married before.
Alan retorted, "How many women have you seen that are prettier than her? With better medical skills than her? She's also Mason Heath's granddaughter." Reąd at Drąmаոоvеls.com "Enough! She won't get away from me!" Wayne barked as he snuffed out the cigarette he was holding.
Mr. Maxwell, please don't do anything rash. We're in Arlandia right now.
Wayne didn't reply. Before he left, he said, "I'm visiting Mr. Heath."
He was sure Mason would agree to the marriage if he just offered a better deal.

Even After Death Chapter 1408-Olivia and Ethan flew to the island in the neighboring country. She hid her children well to prevent her enemies from finding them.
The island was in an excellent geological location. It had flight routes to a lot of different places.
That night, the two of them sipped on some champagne on the beach. They listened to the sound of the waves crashing into the rocks.
Wayne didn't give up. He offered an even more lucrative deal.
Ethan's face was hidden by the shadows, and Olivia couldn't see his emotions.
She frowned. "What did Grandpa say?"
Even though she hadn't been with Mason or Linus for that long, both of them treated her really well.
Olivia felt like Mason would never sell her out for profit, but one could never be too sure.
Don't worry. Mr. Heath didn't agree to it. He turned it down immediately. It's a pity we didn't get to see that in person.
Ethan was a little happy when he said that. After all, he had been competing against Wayne most of his life. Mason helped him get back at Wayne this time.
Liv, just remember that no one can force you to do anything you don't want to.
Ethan feared nothing except Olivia leaving him.
The sunrise on the island was beautiful and amazing. Olivia woke up early in the morning, but she was plainly dressed like she had no intention of leaving.
On the other hand, Ethan was dressed in a suit and looked very handsome. He hadn't seen his children for quite some time.
He wanted them to have a good impression of him.
He leaned over and kissed Olivia on the cheek. "Wait for me. I'll be back soon."
There was a fresh, minty smell on his breath. Olivia pulled him down by his tie and kissed him back.
The sun was rising. The rays shone on them and gave Olivia's face a warm glow.
The kiss was quick. She replied, "Okay."
Ethan left the island shortly after.
It would only take a few hours to get to the town of Angus on a private jet. It meant that she would be able to meet her children in the evening.
Olivia had some people buy her some ingredients. She was about to prepare a feast.
Willow was the youngest. It was because she grew up in the village and didn't like eating meat.
She preferred to eat fruits and vegetables. So, Olivia had her people prepare the best fruits and vegetables.
Alicia was a lively one. She loved sweets. So, Olivia prepared some eggs and flour to bake a cake.
Zack was already starting to feel like an elder brother. He was very stoic when he was with his sisters.
He would only act a little cutely when he was alone with Olivia.
He loved meat. He liked to eat all things with meat in it. Although he was prematurely born, he was still taller than most people his age.
Olivia couldn't help but smile when she thought about her children. They would be able to meet Connor shortly after they got back to Aldenvine.
Her oldest son, whom she let down the most, had yet to meet with her other children.
She couldn't wait for all of them to meet each other. novelbin Olivia felt overjoyed by the thought of it.
The afternoon sun shone through the windows.
Olivia hadn't been in such a good mood in a long time. She even started humming.
She was like a princess in a fairytale working in a kitchen.
The doorbell rang.
The villa was one she rented in advance. She didn't have any acquaintances on the island. It was probably the butler service. Read at Drаmanovеls.coм "Coming."
She skipped to the door, but her smile faded when she opened the door.
Olivia dropped the potato she was holding.

Even After Death Chapter 1409-The plane landed. Ethan arrived at Angus after a while.
It was the middle of autumn.
The town was at the base of a mountain and was covered in brown leaves. It looked beautiful when the wind blew them around.
The people in the town were happy. They had smiles on their faces.
It was a very happy place.
There was a very famous private school in town. It had extremely stringent admission criteria.
The students would receive their education in a closed-off environment.
The tuition fees were very expensive. Even the education style was very special. The students' identities were also kept secret.
A lot of students came from prominent backgrounds. So, no one knew anyone else's identity.
It was also very hard to graduate from this school.
The students who graduated from the school were sure to make a name for themselves.
The school was so secretive that Ethan didn't know about it for quite some time. He looked at his watch.
The kids were still in school.
He didn't even interact with Connor that much. This was the first time he was bringing the kids home.
He was nervous and excited.
He parted ways with Willow in a hurry last time. He had a lot of things he wanted to say to her.
Willow couldn't speak. He wondered if she would get bullied at school.
Ethan revealed his identity and entered the school to look around.
The kids in kindergarten already had lunch. They were having a break.
When he saw Willow, he noticed that she was wearing the school's uniform, which was completely different from her attire in the village.
Her green eyes didn't make her stand out among the blonde-haired kids.
She wore two little bells tied with multi-colored threads on her wrists. She couldn't talk, but she could express herself with the bells.
She was sitting on the swing, and a group of kids surrounded her.
That was because she could wag her finger, and the bird on the tree would fly toward her and perch on her arm.
Everyone else was praising her.
In the eyes of the innocent children, she was as great as a superhero because she could command animals.
Willow had extraordinarily sharp senses.
She abruptly turned around and looked toward Ethan's direction. Her alert expression quickly turned into disbelief.
She blinked her eyes several times as she thought she was dreaming.
Usually, she could only see her father in her dreams. But he looked very real as he stood before her.
Ethan shouted gently, "Willow!"
Willow jumped down from the swing and dashed toward Ethan. She didn't know what was going on.
Olivia never allowed her to interact with Ethan that much. Why would he show up here?
I've missed you, dear.
Willow rubbed Ethan's face with some confusion in her eyes.
Ethan explained, "Mom told me to come get you guys. She is waiting for us on the island." Coոtent beloոgs to Draмąnоvеls.cоm Looking at her surprised expression, Ethan could guess what she was thinking. He smiled tenderly.
That's right. We're going home together. You heard that right.
Willow blinked her eyes and made some hand signs. She was asking if they got back together.
Although she didn't know what happened, she was just happy that her parents were together.
She smiled sweetly and kissed Ethan on the cheek. It was as if she was calling him Dad.

Even After Death Chapter 1410-The school was huge. It took a 20-minute walk from the kindergarten area to reach the primary school area.
Ethan walked while holding Willow's hand. After all, he didn't get a lot of chances to take a walk with her.
Before they arrived at their destination, they heard a childish voice saying, "Little ants, who do you think will be coming for us? I'm asking you a question. Why aren't you answering?"
A little girl was crouching under a tree and poking an ant's nest with a stick.
Why don't you get into formation? Come, on my command. I'll count to three, and all of you will march!
Silly Alicia, you're trying to imitate Willow again. Just forget it. We don't have the power to control animals.
Zack was sitting on a branch above her. He was chewing on a stick with his feet swaying in the air. He was very cute.
Alicia put her hands on her hips. "Stupid Zack, you climbed so high up. I won't be able to catch you if you fall."
I'm very nimble. I can even perform a handstand.
Zack was putting on a show, but then he slipped and fell from the tree.
Zack! Alicia yelled anxiously.
I'm dead meat. Zack closed his eyes in despair. He knew he shouldn't have been so cocky. This fall would hurt a lot.
As he braced for the pain, he fell into someone's arms. Oh, why wasn't there any pain?
He opened his eyes and saw a man's muscular chest. Before he could react, Alicia was already shouting.
You! You are…
She opened her mouth but didn't dare to utter that word. Tears were already streaming down her face.
She had always wanted her parents to be together. She knew that there was some bad blood between Ethan and Olivia.
If she could only choose either one of them, it would undoubtedly be Olivia.
Both Alicia and Zack had seen how Olivia looked when she had terminal cancer. They thought they would never see her again.
It was even more horrifying when Olivia was giving birth to Willow.
The two of them couldn't help with anything. They could only cry when they saw all the bloody water in buckets.
When Olivia gradually recovered, they would also think about Ethan. Where was their father? What was he doing? Did he think about them?
They also heard that they had an elder brother they had yet to meet. Did he look more like Dad or Mom?
They would also look Ethan up on the internet occasionally. But seeing him through a screen was never as good as seeing him in person.
Zack's jaw dropped in surprise as he blinked in bewilderment. He was afraid that he was dreaming and that Ethan would disappear when he woke up.
He gradually built up his courage to go forward and pinch Ethan's cheek.
He didn't crumble. It wasn't a dream!
But when he thought about the relationship between Ethan and Olivia, he uttered, "Uncle Miller."
Zack also realized that it was inappropriate. So, he changed it up.
Mr… Mr. Miller. Reаd at Dramąnоvеls.coм Ethan scratched Zack's nose lightly. "What should you call me?"
Zack scratched his head.
He said tentatively, "Uncle Miller?"
