Chapter 608
Olivia felt a little more sympathetic now. She didn’t expect Ethan to have a family background like that.
“What’s it like with the Millers right now?”
“Madam Eugenia’s death was a huge shock to her husband, Mr. Harold. He’s also quite old, and hehas dementia.novelbin
“He has been resting and recuperating overseas since then. He generally doesn’t care about whatgoes on in the family.”
Olivia asked, “Then… what about Ethan’s father?”
“Back then, he had a strained relationship with Mr. Harold. In his anger, Mr. Harold disowned Mr. MillerSenior and drove him out of the Miller family.
“Mr. Miller Senior started another family a long time ago, and he’s living a happy life with the woman heloves.”
Olivia asked, “He doesn’t like Mrs. Miller Senior, but doesn’t he even care about his son?”
“That’s right. To be honest, every man in the Miller family is deeply devoted to love. From Mr. Haroldright up to Mr. Miller, and even Mr. Miller Senior, they’d hold onto the person they love for life.
“But it was just too cruel for Mrs. Miller Senior and Mr. Miller.”
Madam Burgess then told Olivia many stories about Ethan’s childhood. Olivia was shocked to hearthem.
To her, all this was a blank canvas. She even had a feeling that Ethan had never once mentioned thesethings to her.
No one would willingly open their wounds and expose them to someone else.
Seeing the dark expression on Olivia’s face, Madam Burgess slowly lightened her tone.
“Don’t think about it too much, Mrs. Miller. All those things I said are trivial stuff in the past now. It hasbeen more than 20 years since then. Even rivers can dry up in that period.
“Mrs. Miller Senior must have let go of it a long time ago. I heard that she’s recovering well, and sheeven asked to meet Mr. Miller. She must be just like everyone else by now.”
Olivia replied, “I see.”
Olivia and Madam Burgess chatted for a long while. They were at least acquaintances, after all. So,Olivia decided to buy something for Madam Burgess.
After getting ready, the two went out under the protection of bodyguards.
Meanwhile, Ethan was in the president’s office at Miller Group.
He had a grave look on his face as he looked at the screen. It was filled with dishonest news and angryfans.
Things had already spiraled out of control, and it was getting even more absurd by the second.
Topics like “Miller Group kills at will” and “Mrs. Miller forced a celebrity to death” kept popping up.
Brent didn’t sleep throughout the night. He looked very tired right now. After the changes overnight, thesituation could no longer be controlled.
“Mr. Miller, I found something. A foreign force is making use of this incident to blow things up. They’reblaming everything on Mrs. Miller. They’re fanning the flames of the innocent crowd’s anger.”
“Any clues about the murderer?”
“None for now. But Mara did die because someone had paid for it to happen. According to theinformation, Mara’s private life is a mess. She doesn’t care for morality or shame at all.
“She was expelled from school at ten years old, and she has been hanging around in society sincethen. She had quite an interesting history in school.”
Ethan lit a cigarette. “Continue.”
“Bullying, cheating in exams, hitting teachers, dating too early… She even forced a student to the pointof death. Later on, she hung out with hooligans and even slept with lots of men.
“She somehow got lucky and entered the entertainment industry. She didn’t join the industry to act,though. She was just there to earn money. She extorted many people, and she only targeted laborers.
“She would get 30 to 50 thousand dollars every time. Warren probably knew about this habit of hers, sohe purposefully dressed up as a janitor and got close to her.
“He had already planned the killing method and location.”
Ethan shook off the cigarette ashes. A dark shadow loomed over his face. “So, Warren wasn’t targetingLiv?”
“As you’ve guessed, no. Mara probably seduced a man she shouldn’t have, so the man’s wife gotupset with her. Then, the wife hired someone to kill Mara.
“Mrs. Miller and Kelvin somehow got involved by accident. Some people with ulterior motives heard ofit, and they’re using it to cause controversy and trouble.”
Ethan pondered aloud. “Who could it be?”
