Chapter 713
The first thing Ethan did was run toward Olivia to hold her, preventing her from falling down. However,blood kept oozing out of her mouth.
The whole Miller family was sent into a frenzy. They surrounded Olivia and said, “Call the doctor! Whyisn’t he here yet!”
Ethan hugged Olivia’s frail body and tried to wipe the blood away from her lips. However, the bloodstained his hand and Olivia’s white dress.
Ethan began to sense that something was off. “Liv, what’s wrong?” he asked.
Ethan’s question stunned Keith, who hadn’t been around for the past two years. He asked, “So, you still
don’t know what illness she’s suffering from until today?”
Ethan shifted his gaze onto Keith. “Illness? What illness?”
Instead of answering Ethan, Keith helplessly glanced at Olivia. “You said that you wouldn’t regret makingthis choice, yet this is the person whom you love with all your heart?”
Olivia didn’t know what kind of past she shared with Ethan, but she was aware that this wasn’t what hehad told her before.
He and the Millers had joined hands to weave a beautiful lie for her. Meanwhile, it seemed like Keithknew her past.
Olivia wanted to reply to Keith, but the pain made it impossible. Like a vine, it crept and shrouded herother organs.
Her whole body hurt.
Olivia parted her lips, but she couldn’t speak. Instead, she knelt on the floor and coughed up bloodagain.
The pool of blood shocked Marina so much that she didn’t dare to speak. Harold and Janice didn’t knowwhat was going on either.
Ethan didn’t dare to touch Olivia. His walls of rationality-which he was always so proud of-crumbled inthat moment.
He grabbed Keith by the collar. “What’s happening to her?”
Keith thought that Ethan genuinely loved Olivia, but the current situation told him otherwise.
Keith flashed a mocking smile. “Mr. Miller, you could’ve found out what illness she’s suffering from with aTwo years.
Those little details began flooding Ethan’s mind. Keith didn’t keep in touch with Olivia for over a year, soit meant that it was something that happened during their divorce phase.
Ethan recalled the fact that the skinny Olivia had kept wearing thick coats every day.
Her voice filled his mind.
“No, I’m not lying. I’m just feeling weak because I’m sick…”
“Ethan Miller, do you hate me so much?”
“So… will you be happy if I’m dead?”
“Nothing. I stayed in the hospital for a few days because of a cold.”
“Ethan Miller, I can pay the price with my life.”
“If I’m suffering from a terminal illness or whatnot, will you let me go?”
The mention of a terminal illness; the withered flowers on the table; Olivia’s pale complexion; and thenight she almost died due to a high fever were vivid memories to him.
The epiphany struck Ethan, and his body couldn’t stop trembling. Still, he was holding on to the hope thathe might be wrong.
“W-what illness is she suffering from?” His low voice was shaking too.novelbin
Keith stared at the tall and handsome man, who wielded the highest possible authority.
Ethan loved Olivia a lot, but he was also the same person who had been hurting her the most.
Keith didn’t know how to describe Ethan anymore.
Looking sideways at Olivia, he let out an apologetic smile. “Sorry, Olivia. I can’t keep it a secretanymore.”
The uneasiness grew within Ethan as his fingers slowly curled into fists. “What … What’s wrong withLiv?” Keith announced with emphasis, /Stomach cancer.”
