Ch. 461..470

Even After Death Chapter 461-Olivia’s dreams were mostly about children.

There was a period when she would dream of a beautiful field of flowers every day.

In her dreams, a child was walking up to her with a pretty flower crown in his hands. Then, he smiled as he placed the flower crown on her head.

Olivia relaxed her eyebrows. “Thank you, Connor.” “Mommy, pretty.” Connor was elated, and he smiled from ear to ear.

Olivia felt like Connor would become a gentleman when he grew up. After all, he was already so gentle at a young age.

Cupping Connor’s face, she kissed him lightly on the cheek.

Once again, she wished that he was her child.

Olivia patted Connor’s knees, dusting away the grass and dirt that stuck to them.

Out of the corner of her eyes, she spotted Ethan standing on a hillside in the distance.

He was probably worried that he would ruin her mood if he went over to them.

So, he decided to just watch from a distance.

Connor sat down next to her, watching the water running in the creek.

If the weather was a little warmer, they could go into the water to play. But now, they could only play with pebbles by the creek.

Connor usually played with premium toys at home, but he was also quite happy to pick up pebbles.

He would laugh when he saw the splashes caused by throwing pebbles into the water.

He would also occasionally spot schools of small fry swimming by. He was so happy that he started dancing.

“Fish, tiny fish.” Olivia smiled. “When it gets warmer, let’s catch fish together, alright?” Connor didn’t care about catching fish. He was happy as long as he could spend time with Olivia.

The two frolicked by the water for a long time. Then, Ethan finally made his way over to them, calling them over for breakfast.

Olivia subconsciously wanted to pick Connor up. She only remembered her hand when she crouched down.

“Let me do it.” Ethan held Connor in one arm while his other hand took Olivia’s.

Chapter 461 2/2 Olivia struggled against his hold, but it was no use. Ethan was very strong, and he had a death grip on her hand.

Olivia gave up after a quick try. She had no choice but to let him lead her away.

Connor was overjoyed when he saw the two together. He kept mumbling, “Daddy, Mommy.” Ethan wasn’t the least bit upset about how Connor referred to them. Instead, he happily turned and planted a kiss on Connor’s cheek.

“Good boy.” Olivia didn’t understand why his hand felt like it was burning.

It was just like their expired relationship. She wanted him to let go so that she could run away.

She didn’t know what Ethan was planning, but she could see that he liked seeing her getting close to Connor.

She wondered if he was thinking that this would make up for the hurt she had suffered so she could forget the pain.

The memories were like sharp blades that left wound after wound on her body.

Even though she had recovered, the scars remained.

That was the symbol of her failure. She would never forget about it.

The warm smile on her face gradually disappeared.

When they neared the tent, she took the opportunity to escape from Ethan.

Quickening her pace, she walked away.

Ethan watched her leave. The smile on his lips faded away as well.

Connor keenly sensed something off about the two. He looked at Ethan, then at Olivia, Then, he pleaded for Ethan to put him down. He ran after Olivia.

“Mommy, hold hands.” Olivia remembered her identity. She should not be too involved with Marina’s son.

This time, she didn’t fulfill Connor’s request.

Seeing that she didn’t move, Connor got anxious. He kept calling out to her.

Then, Ethan’s voice rang out. “Just hug him. It’s been a long time since he last saw you.

“Liv, you don’t know how much this child loves you. You don’t know how much he missed you when you were gone.

Even After Death Chapter 462-Olivia trembled as she looked at Ethan with a confused expression.

“What do you mean?” Ethan sighed. “The incident last night wasn’t an accident. Someone targeted Connor and pushed him from the top of a tall staircase.” Olivia’s expression changed. “Who did it?” “We have too few clues at the moment, so we can’t be sure for now.

“From his build, we can gather that he’s not a common folk. He might be a professional assassin.

“So, I’m taking Connor and Erina to a safe place.” Oliva asked tentatively, “Are they related to the Toxic Hive?” “I don’t think so. Toxic Hive is an organization skilled in medicine. They mostly kill with drugs, just like with… Ms. Parker.

“But the people who attacked Connor are different. They were after his life. They pushed a young child from the top of a spiral staircase.

“It was a good thing that Connor grabbed the edge and stopped rolling. If not, the consequences would be unthinkable.” Olivia was frightened when she heard that. She subconsciously gripped Connor.

It was a miracle that the child was still standing and smiling in front of her.

She crouched down. She could no longer take her anger for Ethan out on Connor.

Touching Connor’s face, she asked, “Connor, did it hurt?” Connor didn’t understand what she was saying. He was simply happy because Olivia touched him.

He called out to Olivia.

“Mommy, Mommy.” Olivia gently took his hand. They had planned to return to the city after breakfast, but Olivia played with Connor for the whole day.

She would pick flowers and catch butterflies for him.

Ethan took off his socks and rolled up the legs of his pants. Then, he waded into the creek to catch fish for Connor.

For Connor’s sake, Olivia didn’t defy Ethan.

They set aside their past and their grudges. They were like a couple helping their child experience the Chapter 462 purest form of happiness.

At sundown, they finally left in the car.

Connor was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he got into the car.

Olivia sat in the back seat, gazing tenderly at the child.

2/3 It was quite odd. She wasn’t related to him by blood, and he was the child of the woman she hated the most.

Still, she couldn’t help but love Connor with all her heart.

After they parted this time, she had no idea when they would meet again.

At that thought, she felt even more reluctant to part ways with him.

Ethan sent Olivia back to the Manor of Roses. Before Olivia got out of the car, she noticed that there were more bodyguards in the area.

Just before getting out of the car, Olivia touched Connor’s face. “Where are you taking him?” “For the sake of his safety, it’s best that as few people know about it as possible.” “You have a point. Take good care of him. His mother probably can’t take care of him anymore.” Ethan parted his lips, about to explain something. But when he thought of this incident, he suppressed the truth again.

He replied in a low voice, “I know. You and Mr. Fordham will be moved away within the next few days as well. This place isn’t safe anymore.” Olivia was stunned. “Us?” “I don’t know who those people are targeting. But you have a special identity, so I fear that they might come after you next.” Ethan sighed. “I’m sorry, Liv. I never wanted this to happen.

“but now that things have turned out like this, I have no choice. I can only do my best to protect you.” Olivia didn’t say more. She caressed Connor’s cheek again before leaving.

Before she got out, she turned around and asked, “Can I take someone with me?” “It’s best if you don’t. I know I’ve carefully selected the staff here, “But to be safe, we shouldn’t bring them along. I’ll get Madam Burgess to take care of you.” “I’m not taking anyone else, just Mona. She knows my habits.” “Alright. You should make preparations tonight.” Olivia didn’t try to be stubborn this time.

Chapter 462 3/3 Jeff needed a safe place to recuperate, and she also needed a place to focus on her pregnancy. It wasn’t the time to be throwing a tantrum.

“Got it.”

Even After Death Chapter 463-Before daybreak, Olivia and Jeff were sent away. Even Olivia had no idea where they would be taken.

When they arrived, she found herself in an old courtyard.

She thought for a moment, realizing that Ethan didn’t own a house like his under his name.

By the looks of it, for security purposes, Ethan had found a safe place. No one would’ve guessed that she was here.

Jeff was quite fond of this place. It looked a lot like the Fordham residence.

Getting out of the car, Jeff stood up and walked a few steps without his cane.

When Olivia saw that, she went forward to help him. “Careful, Dad.” A happy look flashed across Jeff’s amicable face. “Olivia, I can walk by myself now.” “Yes, Dad. We’re not in a hurry, so take your time. Don’t trip and fall.” Olivia felt fulfilled when she saw Jeff getting better by the day.

When his condition had stabilized, she could ask him about the truth back then.

Every night, she went to sleep with thoughts of those secrets in her heart. Even in her dreams, she wanted to know what exactly had happened.

Kelvin hurried over to support Jeff. “Mr. Fordham, it’s a good thing that you’re recovering quickly, but you have to go at a moderate pace. Don’t rush it.” “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.” Jeff smiled. In reality, he was feeling quite anxious in his heart.

He had many things he hadn’t done, and he didn’t want to drag Olivia down, either.

After retiring to his room every day, he would practice as he leaned against the wall.

He could still make a comeback.

The new yard was comfortable, and it was a perfect place for Olivia to rest and take care of her pregnancy.

After their last parting, Ethan didn’t visit again.

He was probably worried that his whereabouts might be exposed. Or, he was just too busy, or it might have something to do with his impending marriage, Twenty days passed in the blink of an eye.

Olivia’s symptoms of early pregnancy gradually faded.

Chapter 463 2/3 In recent days, her appetite was alarming, and she would get hungry very quickly.

Now that the throwing up was gone, Olivia looked healthier, and her face had also gotten a little rounder. She felt sleepy all day.

Even Mona couldn’t help but smile as she said, “Look, our beautiful Olivia has gotten even prettier.

“Other pregnant women have loose skin, but I’ve never seen someone like you before. Your skin is so supple!” They behaved like sisters around each other. Mona’s personality was quite like Everly’s.

One of them was easygoing, whereas the other was straightforward.

They were the sort that was relaxing to be around.

During the time she spent around Olivia, Mona could see that Olivia’s mood was improving by the day.

In the past, Olivia lived every day in negativity, and she never had any hope for the future.

But now, Olivia began to look forward to the future. She wanted to live longer to see Jeff recover and to give birth to the baby.

Now that she had hope, she felt like life didn’t seem that hard to endure anymore.

Olivia touched her belly, which was still flat. Suddenly, a look of sorrow appeared on her face.

“What’s the matter, Olivia? Did you not like the fruits just now?” “That’s not it.” “Then it must be the desserts. Were they too sweet or not sweet enough? I’ll tell the kitchen staff about it later.” Olivia had no complaints about her life here.

The vegetables she ate every day were harvested by a farmer nearby. He had used organic fertilizers instead of chemical ones.

The fruits were also flown in straight from their countries of origin.

She could taste the fresh flavor of sunshine in every bite. The fruits were sweet and juicy.

“It’s not that. I’m just thinking that it’s about time I get a pregnancy checkup,” Olivia said in a troubled tone.

She wanted to see if the baby had a heartbeat and how they were developing.

But she didn’t know what excuse she should use to go to the hospital.

“Why don’t I say that you’re feeling unwell, so I’m taking you to the hospital for a checkup?” Olivia sighed. It might not be the best way, but it was her only option.

Chapter 463 373 Ethan would be getting married in a few days. He was probably so busy that he wouldn’t have time for her.

She could contact Calvin before the checkup. Then, she could do it like before.

There wouldn’t be any reports, and the doctor would tell her the results right after the checkup.

Hence, they wouldn’t leave any traces.

“Alright. Be careful.” “Don’t worry, I’ll just tell him that it’s a regular checkup. Mr. Miller won’t find out.”

Even After Death Chapter 464-Ethan received a call from Mona. Even though he hadn’t visited Olivia in a while, he was aware of Olivia’s every move.

Mona didn’t know what he was thinking. She simply thought that he was watching Olivia silently.

He was protecting Olivia as if he were the best ex-husband in the world.

“Mr. Miller, Ms. Fordham wants to get a pregnancy checkup.” A pair of wedding rings lay on Ethan’s desk. He caressed the large diamond with his fingers, his expression unfathomable.

“Alright, I’ll have it arranged.” Mona sighed in relief. “I knew you care about Ms. Fordham the most, Mr. Miller.

I have no idea why she’s wary of you even when it comes to her pregnancy.” With a dark smile on his face, Ethan ended the call. He placed the ring back into its box.

Getting up, he walked up to the huge floor-to-ceiling windows.

The sky was gray, and it looked like it was about to rain.

It was just after work hours. People flooded the streets, and cars formed a continuous stream on the road.

The tall buildings in the distance lit up one after the other. Ethan’s shadow extended far behind him.

Raindrops pelted on the glass. Then, they rolled downward, leaving trails behind them.

Ethan’s figure looked extra lonely against the rain.

Olivia had once told him that it was cold at the top, so she would stay with him.

After a long while, Ethan took out his phone and dialed a number.

His voice was low as he said, “Yes, it’s me.” When Olivia received the reply, she should be happy about it, but she felt troubled for some reason.

She felt like things were going a little too smoothly.

Mona couldn’t understand why Olivia was pacing around the room. “Olivia, Mr.

Miller agreed to it. Why are you so upset?” “I…” Olivia placed her fingers on her chest. She couldn’t quite describe the feeling.

She felt like things weren’t supposed to turn out like this. Things went so smoothly that it felt suspicious.

Chapter 464 2/3 “Didn’t he say anything else?” Blinking with her clear eyes, Mona shook her head. “Nope. Olivia, Mr. Miller loves you and cares about you more than you imagined.

“I believe that he’s marrying Ms. Carlton out of obligation. He had given you all his love.” After all, she would tell Ethan what kinds of food Olivia liked and disliked.

After that, for every meal, the things Olivia didn’t like to eat would never appear again. Instead, the flavors she preferred would be served in another form.

Ethan would pay high prices to buy ingredients from their local sources. He would have them flown in so that Olivia could eat the freshest food.

He was a man of few words, but he had spoken every word for her.

If this wasn’t love, then Mona didn’t know what else was.

He was even worried that his love would be a burden to Olivia, so he didn’t want Mona to reveal even a tiny bit of it.

Olivia didn’t want to argue with Mona about whether Ethan loved her or not. She was fine with it as long as Ethan didn’t suspect anything.

Olivia thought that being pregnant had made her sensitive and suspicious of everything.

She shook her head. “Alright, then. We’ll move according to plan.” “Okay.” “I’m going to check on Dad.” Opening the door, Olivia left. The wind was strong in the corridor. It had come from the patio.

The white sheer curtains on the patio were flapping wildly in the wind. The wisteria tree in the yard. outside had pretty flowers hanging from its branches.

But now, the flowers were scattered by the wind, and they lay wet on the ground.

It was another rainy day.

Frowning, Olivia knocked on the door to Jeff’s room.

When the door opened, she saw Jeff dressed in white. He seemed lively, and his body looked like other person’s.

His shrunken calf had also gradually returned to normal as he recuperated.

He seemed to be in high spirits.

But, gait.

any of course, this was only on the surface. He could walk around for now, but he walked with a slow Chapter 464 He couldn’t move freely like others, but it was much better than when he was bedridden.

He would need a year or two to heal completely.

“Dad, you’re still awake?” Olivia supported him out of habit.

Smiling, Jeff said, “I was bored, so I decided to play some chess. What about you? Why haven’t you gone to bed?” “I napped too much in the afternoon, so I can’t sleep at night.” Jeff’s gaze fell upon her hand. “Do you still feel nothing in your hand after all that treatment?” Olivia smiled bitterly. “I felt nothing at all. It’s probably ruined.” “Don’t give up. Even someone like me was cured, after all. You’re still so young, so you’ll recover quickly.” “Okay.” Olivia chatted with Jeff for a long while.

Jeff voiced his request again. “Olivia, I’ve been in good shape recently, so I think I can use phones now.

וו “Dad, phones are bad for your eyes. I think you should wait a little longer…” Jeff’s expression remained gentle.

“Olivia, are you worried that when I use a phone, I might see something I shouldn’t? If so, then I won’t look at it.”

Even After Death Chapter 465-Olivia was not the only person refusing to give him the phone all this time. Ethan did the same thing, too.

Jeff could guess an inkling of the situation from that.

After all, he was a grown man, not a three-year-old kid.

She hurriedly said, “Dad, some things did happen while you were in a coma. I’m planning to tell you about it one by one after you recover.” His fingers trembled when he heard that.

“I knew that something bad had happened. I woke up, and your hand is disabled! Your relationship with Ethan is bad as well. What happened?” Noticing his vehement emotions, she quickly helped him to sit.

“Dad, look. This is why I didn’t wanna tell you. It’s nothing big. I had a fight with him because of some matters.

“Didn’t you see him begging me for forgiveness the whole day? If it was a serious matter, we would’ve parted ways already.” Only then he was able to keep his cool. “You’re right. Ethan keeps promising me that he won’t let you down. So, what happened between the two of you?” “Dad, I’ll tell you in a few days. You barely show signs of recovery.

“Have you forgotten what the doctor said? That you can’t take a shock at the moment?” She poured him a glass of warm milk. “Actually, those matters are over. It’s normal for married couples to fight.

“If there’s a problem, solve it. It’s that easy. I’m big enough to handle it.” “Okay, but you must tell me if anyone treats you badly. Even if I’m not in the state to do anything, I will make sure he pays for it.” Olivia faintly smiled. “Got it. I know that you love me the most in this world.” He glanced at Jeff’s hands, which weren’t trembling that much anymore.

She shook the doubt off her head.

It wasn’t the right time to ask, so she decided to wait for some other day.

“Rest up, Dad. I should get going.” She took a deep breath after leaving his room.

Everyone wished to know the truth, but most of the truth was a painful reality.

Standing on the balcony, she reached out to touch the rain. She watched the storm happening, hoping Chapter 465 2/2 that everything would be fine tomorrow.

The next morning, Olivia forwent breakfast and headed to the hospital alongside Mona.

Mona kept chattering like a singing bird.

“Olivia, what would you like to have after the checkup later? I can prepare it for you.

“It’s a rare chance to be outside. Let’s grab something nice.

“It must be boring to have bland food every day. Why don’t we have something different?” Something crossed her mind, prompting her to lick her lips. Her eyes lit up in anticipation.

Joy rubbed off on Olivia as she said, “Anything.” In the end, Mona bought her a lot of street food. They were Olivia’s favorites during her schooling days.

After the nurse drew her blood, Mona handed them to Olivia.

“You have other checkups later. Eat up!” “Okay.” Now that Olivia was free, she texted Calvin. After confirming that there were no issues, she finally dug in with peace of mind.

Following that, she entered the ultrasound room, which she had previously been before.

It was the same doctor who was looking at her with a gentle smile.

“Lie down, and I can start checking on you.” “Thank you.” “It’s not a big deal. Here we go.” Olivia was on tenterhooks, worrying that the baby wasn’t growing well.

When the doctor’s expression suddenly changed, Olivia’s heart squeezed.

“Does something matter?” “Yes, and it’s a big problem.”

Even After Death Chapter 466-Olivia was nervous. The emotions when she lost her baby that year came seeking her again.

Her face fell. Even her voice was quivering. “W-What’s wrong She unconsciously grabbed the hem of her shirt, mentally preparing herself for the worst-case scenario.

A smile appeared on the doctor’s face. “Congratulations, Ms. Fordham. You’re with twins. I saw two fetal hearts.” Tears began pooling in her eyes when she heard that.

Carefully, she asked, “A-Are they growing well?” “Yup. They seem to be growing well at the moment. Don’t worry, Ms. Fordham.” Olivia caressed her belly, crying out of joy.

She wasn’t pregnant with a baby, but two!

Mona entered the room. She speculated that something serious happened, judging from Olivia’s expression.

“What’s the matter? Is something wrong with the baby? Don’t be afraid.

Technology is very advanced nowadays. It will be fine.” Olivia, who couldn’t utter a word due to excitement, shook her head profusely.

“N-No. It’s not like that. Everything’s fine. It’s that I’m pregnant with…” “Jeez! Just spill it, Olivia. You’re leaving me hanging.

“What are you pregnant with? It can’t be a demon spawn, can it?” The doctor laughed. “Ms. Fordham is simply overjoyed. She’s pregnant with twins. And the babies are growing well.” “That’s great, Olivia! You’re amazing! Twins!” Olivia clumsily wiped her tears off. “Yeah. I didn’t expect them to be twins.” Being pregnant with a baby was enough to give her joy. Having a twin was a pleasant surprise.

The thrilled Olivia kept thanking the doctor. “Thank you so much.” The doctor waved hands. “It’s nothing. I’m just checking in on you. You should take good care of yourself. Being pregnant with twins can be tiring.” “I’m not afraid. Nothing fears me as long as I can give birth to them smoothly.” Mona wiped Olivia’s tears off. “This is a happy occasion. Why are you crying?” Chapter 466 2/3 Olivia hugged Mona. Her body was still trembling, which was out of her control.

No one would be able to relate. Only losing would make a person realize how valuable something was.

Olivia’s voice was trembling. “I have two babies, Mona. I have two babies.” Her emotions rubbed on Mona, who was still single.

Mona patted Olivia’s shoulder. “You’re the baby here. Look at how happy you are. Don’t cry. You’re a mother.” Olivia broke into a smile. “Yeah, I mustn’t cry. I’m simply overjoyed. I am actually becoming a mother!” Like a machine, she kept repeating those words. Only God knew what life meant to her.

Before this, her world was pure darkness. Now, she was able to see hope again.

The babies made her look forward to her future life, giving her thrills.

It took Mona a while to calm Olivia down.

After taking a glass of warm water to hydrate her throat, she thanked the doctor again before leaving the room.

Unbeknownst to her, as soon as she stepped out of the ultrasound room, the doctor made a copy of the results to hand it to someone else.

Ethan’s eyes darkened when he noticed the two fetal hearts.

Calvin couldn’t comprehend the situation at all.

Ethan should be happy upon learning the news of the twin, but why was he looking angry?

Calvin asked, “Mr. Miller, is the picture too blurry? You can ask me if you have any doubts in mind. According to the results, the babies are healthy and growing well. If you would like to find out their sex, it is possible-” Chris, who was standing next to them, cleared his throat.

“Chris, what happened to your throat? Would you like some lozenges?” Calvin looked at Chris dubiously.

Chris was speechless. Ethan couldn’t tolerate a troublesome baby already, yet Olivia was pregnant with twins!

Ethan had the urge to tear the whole hospital down right now.

“I’m fine. No one will ignore your presence just because you keep your mouth shut.

“What are you going to do, Mr. Miller?” Chris asked Ethan, trying to figure out what was on the latter’s mind.

Chapter 466 Ethan’s fingers tightened, crumpling the edge of the paper. He coldly said, “We’ll proceed with the plan accordingly.”

Even After Death Chapter 467-Chris, who couldn’t bring himself to set the plan into motion, attempted to persuade Ethan.

“Mr. Miller, they are two little babies. It is not easy for a mother to give birth to a new life. I think…” The insensible Calvin finally noticed something was off as he asked, “Chris, what are you guys talking about?” Losing his patience, Ethan stood up and left. “Schedule for a surgery.” Calvin grabbed Chris’ hand. “Chris, tell me, what is the surgery for?” “It’s performed when the pregnant mother is over four weeks pregnant. What do you think it is for?” Chris sighed before following Ethan, leaving Calvin behind.

Questions flooded Calvin’s head as he thought, “Why? Doesn’t Mr. Miller love her? Why does he want an abortion?

“And a pair of twins at that! Olivia clearly doesn’t know anything about this. She even texted me in secret to ask for help.” As a friend, he couldn’t bring himself to watch Olivia lose her babies.

He fished his phone out, wanting to call her.

But someone took his phone away. “I’m sorry, Dr. Atkins. Mr. Miller doesn’t wish for anyone to get in his way.” Kelvin wore a deadpan face, losing his usual untrammeled demeanor.

“Why? They’re his babies! Olivia wishes to welcome them to the world more than anyone else. How can he do this?” Needless to say, Kelvin wouldn’t reveal the fact that Ethan was cheated on.

Kelvin said in a low voice, “This is none of your business.” In the face of Kelvin’s fierce face, Calvin lowered his head. “Got it.” How could Calvin go against Ethan when the Atkins family still depended on Ethan?

“I’m sorry, Olivia,” said Calvin in his head.

While Olivia was overflowing with joy, Mona reminded her, “Olivia, there’s another medical checkup you have to take.” “What is it?” “It’s a normal checkup in the Gynecology Department to check your vaginal discharge and whatnot.

Chapter 467 2/2 “If there’s an infection, it will be bad for the babies. We should be extra careful about this.” Olivia gave it a thought and didn’t mind taking the checkup.

The doctor wouldn’t go deep into her vagina, so it wouldn’t hurt her babies.

“Okay. I gotta go to the restroom for a moment.” When she entered the restroom, she wanted to share the good news with Everly.

And Everly happened to call her at that moment. “Liv, I have something to tell you.” “What a coincidence. I have something to tell you, too.” Olivia sounded happy.

“What is it that you’re so happy?” Everly questioned.

“I’m pregnant with twins, and they’re healthy.” Everly became excited. “Woah! Congratulations, Liv! I told you that there’s always a rainbow after rain. See? We’ve finally made it through!

“Oh, right. I have something important to tell you. Listen, this is very important.

“What is it?” Olivia became nervous after noting the solemnity in Everly’s voice.

“Do you still remember my superior?” “Yeah. What’s with him? Did he pick on you again?” “No. It has nothing to do with me this time.

“Today, he told me to handle some insignificant properties. Anyways, it is a troublesome task.

“I found out something when I was paying the management fee for one of the properties.” “What?” “Are you staying in Block B of Urban Haven right now?” Olivia’s heart sank to the pit of her stomach.

Everly secretly visited Olivia a few days ago, and Olivia personally welcomed her.

“Yes,” Olivia finally replied after a long silence.

Everly covered her face. “Unfortunately, that house belongs to Henry.” Olivia almost fell onto the ground when she heard that.

It was as if an invisible hand was grasping her throat. “What are you talking about…”

Even After Death Chapter 468-Olivia’s mind went blank at that moment as everything felt like a dream. She was certain that something had gone wrong.

She knew all of Ethan’s close friends. There were only a handful of them.

Even if she hadn’t met them before, she would have heard their names before.

None of them went by the name Henry.

Olivia took a deep breath, trying not to freak herself out.

It was possible that Ethan chose a stranger in order not to give the game away; however, what Everly was going to say next toppled all of Olivia’s reasoning.

“The house belongs to Mr. Synder. Remember the day we met?

“Before I chased after you with a bottle of folic acid in hand, he told me that he knew you, that you were someone’s crush.

“Handing you the folic acid was the only thing I had in mind, so I forgot about that when I went back to talk about work with him.” Everly was blaming herself. “Sorry, Liv. I was swamped at that time. I only recalled about that when I paid the management fee.

“I thought he was talking about Ethan, so I shook the folic acid packaging in front of him.” Olivia’s grip on her phone tightened. “What… Did he say?” Everly sighed. “He asked if I was preparing for pregnancy while seeing someone. If that was the case, I would’ve been fired a long time ago.

“That bastard knows what folic acid is, and he knows Ethan! It’s highly possible that Ethan knew of your pregnancy a long time ago!” Olivia raised her head, looking at her pale face from the mirror.

The leads were finally connected. Her hunch was right-Ethan knew of her pregnancy all along!

That was why he claimed that he wouldn’t blame her no matter what she had done during the meteor shower.

He thought the babies weren’t his!

“Liv, are you listening?” “I am,” Only then did Olivia answer.

“Since he has found out that you’re pregnant, has he been acting out of character?” Olivia replied helplessly, “Now that I think about it, yes. My meals are normally served to pregnant Chapter 468 women. I’m such a fool. I should’ve caught on to it.” Olivia put her guard down because she hadn’t met him for a while.

“If so, I guess there’s a chance that he couldn’t hurt you and the babies?

Otherwise, why would he serve you good food?” 2/2 Olivia smiled. “Eve, you learn medicine. I bet you know when’s the perfect time for an abortion, don’t you?” “When it’s more than four weeks.” “Yeah, it’s impossible when the baby is still very young. The best time is when it’s over four weeks. He provides me with good food for my health because abortion is bad for the mother’s body.

“He hasn’t shown up because he didn’t want me to know that he actually knows the truth.

“He’s waiting, waiting for the babies to grow until it’s the perfect time for an abortion,” she emphasized each and every word.

“Holy cow! Don’t you feel the chills thinking about how you’ve been sharing the same bed with him all the while? Can you sleep?” Everly covered her mouth.

“I feel like I’m getting to know a whole new side of him. Not only is he cruel, he’s calculating! Where are you right now?” “At the hospital. I told him that I wanna come here for a checkup last night, and he agreed to it without hesitation.

“If I’m not mistaken, he must’ve prepared the operating room for the abortion already.” “What the fuck! What are you waiting for then? Tell him that they’re his babies, or things will get ugly!” “It’s no use. I know him very well. He wasn’t in his right mind that day.

“He will never think that he’s the father. He’s paranoid, too. He won’t believe me.” “Liv, stay there and wait for me. I will bring you to somewhere safe right away.

“We can take a DNA test after you give birth to the babies. That’ll be better than-” “Who are you talking with over the phone?” A gentle voice resounded before Everly could finish. “M-Mr. Synder?”

Even After Death Chapter 469-The call was terminated. Olivia had no other options.

She knew Ethan like the back of her hand, and so did Ethan. He had been trying to make her put her guard down.

It was not that she had been lying to Ethan, but it was the other way round!

Henry might have already informed Ethan about it. She must escape from here!

Mona happened to enter the restroom to look for Olivia. “Olivia, what’s taking you so long? The doctor is waiting.” “I’m not going to take the checkup, Mona. We must leave right now.” “Why? Don’t you have other checkups to take?” Olivia held Mona’s hand, pulling her out of the restroom. “I can’t explain everything to you now. But we can’t stay here. It’s dangerous.” Mona couldn’t follow. “How so? We have the bodyguards with us. I’ll call Mr.

Miller to let him handle the issue.” “Silly you. He’s the biggest danger.” Olivia ran out while holding Mona’s hand.

Mona persuaded her, “Wait. You haven’t reached 12 weeks of pregnancy yet, so you cannot do any extreme exercises. Here, I’ll carry you.” Although she couldn’t understand what Olivia was implying, Mona crouched down without hesitation.

“Don’t worry about me. I’m strong. My mother even claimed that I was born a wrestler. Just get on my back. We can leave the talking later.” Mona carried Olivia on her back. Despite her skinny figure, Mona was indeed strong.

“Olivia, where are we heading to?” “Let’s leave the hospital first.” “Okay.” Olivia thought of her past, where Ethan wouldn’t believe a word she said.

He would only mock her with hurtful words again and again.

The earliest possible time to perform a DNA test was during week 16.

She was afraid that he wouldn’t listen to her explanation and force her into an abortion.

Mona dashed at full speed with Olivia on her back, and Olivia was racking her brain to think of a place to hide.

Chapter 469 However, she noticed a tall figure before they could even step out of the back exit.

Ethan was standing under a tree in his expensive suit. He was pinching a cigarette while resting against the tree.

The cloud of smoke covered his silhouette as his gaze slowly landed on her.

Disappointment fleeted across his eyes, driving her to anxiety-she was done for.

She appeared like a fugitive to him, adding more reasons not to believe her.

Ethan sighed. “Liv, you disappoint me.” Mona let Olivia down, trying to explain Olivia’s stance.

“It’s not what you think it is, Mr. Miller. Ms. Fordham is in danger, so she told me to get her out of there.

“You should check the place to see if someone’s trying to harm her.” Ignoring the fool, he threw the cigarette away and gazed at Olivia.

“Liv, are you coming to me, or do you want me to come to you?” Mona roasted him under her breath, “What’s the difference?” Olivia remained standing on her spot, nervous.

” Mona couldn’t understand what Olivia was afraid of. Even if there was someone attempting to harm Olivia, Ethan was here with them.

Little did Mona know that the calmer he appeared, the crazier he was actually on the inside.

Underneath his harmless eyes was a storm of emotions.

Olivia took the initiative to say, “Ethan, I can explain.” He walked up to her with an icy gaze. “Too late, Liv.”  

Even After Death Chapter 470-Ethan approached her, reaching his hand out for her. “Be good and come with me.” It was a gentle voice meant for cooing at kids, but it made Olivia’s skin crawl.

Even Mona sensed that something was wrong. She unconsciously stood before Olivia. “Mr. Miller, Ms. Fordham is done with her checkups. I should send her home.” Only then did he shift his gaze from Olivia to Mona. “Get out of the way.” He was a very dangerous person right now, so Olivia didn’t want to drag Mona into this.

“Mona, wait for me outside. I have something to talk to him about.” Mona alternated her gaze between Olivia and Ethan.

It seemed like the couple had something important to discuss, so Mona waved her hand and left.

Now that they were alone, Olivia hurriedly said, “Ethan, let’s talk about the babies.” Calmly looking at her, Ethan said coldly, “Are you thinking of telling me that the baby in your belly is mine?” “It is yours. When you were running a temperature, we…” 11 He smirked and raised her chin. “Liv, why not make up a more realistic story?

How could I not know something that I have done?” Her face turned red because she was anxious. “You bastard! Are you sure you didn’t feel it? You’re the one who…” Ethan replayed that absurd dream in his head. There was nothing unusual about his body.

“Liv, do you think that I’ll buy it? How could you use that to cover for your betrayal?

“I was sick! You let me down, Liv.” Frustration was bubbling up in her as she licked her dry lips.

Knowing that she mustn’t get into a fight with him, she must resolve the problem as soon as possible.

“Calm down and hear me out. I promised you that you’re the only one I will be with. I will never be with someone else.

“Ethan Miller, I will never sleep with someone else on a whim, even if I resent you. I’m not that kind of person.” His finger caressed her face gently before tracing to the back of her hand, pulling her into his embrace.

She was in his arms.

Ethan whispered in her ear softly, “Liv, you also promised me that you would stay in Aldenvine Chapter 470 forever.

“But you kept planning on leaving the city. I want to trust you, but you’re pregnant.

“How am I supposed to believe in you?” Olivia wanted to break free from him, but he secured her waist.

The fragrance on his clothes wafted her nose. It was her favorite scent that gave her a sense of assurance.

On the contrary, she deemed that his embrace was the most dangerous place in this world now.

“No, it’s not like that! You gotta believe me, Ethan! They are your babies!” Olivia was on the verge of crying. “Yes, I was planning to keep it a secret from you because I didn’t want to have anything to do with you.

2/2 “I wanted to leave your side in secret and run away to give birth to them. I didn’t want you to know, so I kept you in the dark.

“They are your babies. The doctor said we’re having twins. Ethan, can we not drag the babies into the bad blood between us?

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe me. They’re innocent. I wish to welcome them to the world more than anyone else.

“My hand is disabled already. Please show mercy. Let me and my babies go.

Please…” He was unfazed. “Liv, if I let you go, who’s gonna do the same for me?”
