Even After Death

Chapter 1299

Chapter 1299

Olivia buried her face in Ethan's chest.

“Ethan, I do love you, but I can't get over the past.Those days were too painful; so painful that it hurts."

To realize herself ill and abandoned? She didn't even have the courage to reminisce about those days.

"Could you not force me? Please?"

He sighed, his eyes darkened.

Pushing her was never his intention.

Wayne's appearance actually posed a threat to Ethan.

Although Ethan managed to take her back to the country safely, her identity was exposed.

If she wasn't Septem, Linus didn't have to show up in person —Wayne understood that very well.novelbin

Based on Wayne's character, Ethan reckoned the man wouldn't let it slide that easily.

To add on, Olivia was reluctant to get married again.

Even though he was holding her right now, the lack of sense of security still dug up a void in him.

A long sigh escaped from him.

“Fine.I won't."

Nestling in his arms, she was wide awake.

Her phone died a long time ago.

Many people must have been looking for her while she was away for so long.

The Carltons recently contacted her to inquire about the date for the surgery.

Losing touch with her worried Warren so much that he also messaged her frequently.

Besides that, there were a lot of missed calls from Molly, who must've called to ask about her baby.

As a mother herself, Olivia could relate to Molly's feelings.

Still, it would be unbecoming of Olivia to call Molly back at this late hour.

Things could wait until tomorrow.

She lay in Ethan's arms.

“Not sleeping?"

“Can't sleep."

His eyes zeroed in on her.

"I'm afraid you'll vanish and run away again."

A soft chuckle burst.

"I won't vanish, nor will I run away.Sleep.You'll get busy at the end of the year."

“No matter how busy I am, nothing's more important than keeping you company."

She planted a kiss on his lips.

"After this, wanna take the kids back with me? It should be the school holidays by then."

His eyes brightened.

“You're finally letting me meet them?"

Olivia covered the tracks of the kids’ whereabouts very well all this time.

He couldn't find a shadow of them at all.

“You're their father.Even though we're divorced, you have the right to visit them."

The mention of divorce made him frown.

"Liv, I was wrong.I shouldn't have proposed a divorce."

She merely smiled at that.

"Sleep.It's very late."

No matter how much he regretted his decision, there was no turning back.

All he could do was to cherish the present.He sneaked out of the Heath residence before even the sun

rose.He somehow bought the guards off so that he could make use of the back door.

Ethan couldn't believe his life.

They were the closest person to each other, and yet, they had to be all sneaky just to meet up.

Olivia was used to Raka's time zone, so she wasn't feeling sleepy.

After a shower, her phone, which was fully recharged, rang.

It was Molly again.

Olivia picked up the call.

“Hello?"

"Ms.Miraculous Doctor, save me!"

The uneasiness in Molly's voice amplified.

Hearing the choking voice, Olivia spat out the water gargling in her mouth.

She wiped the bubble around her lips with a napkin.

"What's wrong? Talk to me.Don't cry."

“Can we meet up? You gotta help me!"

“Is it about the baby?"

“Yes.Yale...He insists on the abortion, but I don't want that! Could you help me?"

Right when Olivia was going to refuse, she heard Yale speaking.

“Who are you talking to over the phone? And what are you doing outside? It's cold."

The call got disconnected.
