Chapter 34

Ethan replied, “Okay.”

For the first time in more than a year, both of them gave in. She tightly wrapped herself around him likeshe did before. His finger moved slightly but eventually rested on his side.

The car drove to Ethan’s company. He asked Kelvin to send Olivia horne.

Olivia went to the hospital instead of the Miller residence. Jeff was still unconscious and had beenmoved to a normal ward.

Olivia sent the helper home and personally prepared a bowl of warm water to wipe down his face andfingers.

She muttered, “Dad, I know your secret. I wish it wasn’t true. Please wake up and tell me that it’s not,will you? Tell me you didn’t do those things, that you didn’t kill Jodie.

“Dad, I have stomach cancer. Ethan doesn’t know, and it’s for the best. If I give my life to him, will he letgo of his hatred?

“My life has been smooth sailing thus far. You took really good care of me while I was growing up.You’re the best dad in the world. No matter what you’ve done to others, you will always be someone Irespect. I’ll fix the damage you’ve done.

“I know you would never let me do this if you were still here, but I have no choice. I love him. I fell inlove with him eight years ago. It doesn’t matter if it’s only one month. I’m willing to put up with it.”

Olivia had a lot on her mind. She sat by her father’s bedside for a long time, venting.

She knew that her time on earth was slowly depreciating. This was the only thing she could do for herfather.

She went back to the Miller residence in the afternoon. Ethan was a man of his word. He never brokeany promises he made.

The moment Olivia reached the Miller residence, she saw Marina, who had been waiting by the porchfor a long time.

Since Ethan was not present, she removed her facade. She looked like she was about to start trouble.

She glared fiercely at Olivia. “Do you think he’s going to come running back to you? Give up, Olivia.”

Olivia wasn’t angry. She stared at her calmly. “Marina, do you love Ethan?”

Marina was startled. She never expected Olivia to suddenly ask this question.

Af

pment, she answered, “I decided to marry him and no one else more than ten years ago. I met himearlier than you

him more than you do. You can’t win.”

Olivia smiled wryly and responded, “I know that.”

She raised her head and said lightly, “I don’t know if you believe me, but I never wanted to be yourenemy. Even today.”novelbin

The dead could never win a fight against the living. Moreover, a conversation would not make herbusiness with Ethan disappear.

“I only want one month. After one month, I will leave the city.”

“Do you take me for a child? You…”

Before she could finish, a loud baby’s voice yelled, “Mama!”

A small bundle of joy wearing a teddy bear onesie appeared in the snow. He waddled his way with hisunsteady feet toward them. He fell after taking two steps. He ended up crawling.

Connor swiftly crawled toward Olivia. Olivia was faster than Marina. She went forward and quicklyscooped him up from the

snow.

The little angel looked very happy. He reached out with his chubby hands and tried to hug Olivia’sneck.

Marina swatted his arm away, causing the baby to cry. Olivia’s heart ached at the sight of this, and shetried to hug him to stop the crying.
