Chapter 1030

Olivia was harnessing the bullock cart. The village's primary modes of transportation were either

horses or bullock carts.

Despite the challenging conditions, Olivia preferred the simple life of the village over the cutthroat

environment of big cities.

"You should let Ethan go with you. You'll be able to come back sooner."

Wendy had just finished treatment on Cyril, so he couldn't move yet. Also, she was trying to play

matchmaker for the two of them. Olivia couldn't turn Wendy down even though she knew what Wendy

was doing.

It didn't really matter. She was leaving in a few days, after all.

Ethan and Olivia sat next to each other on the bullock cart. It was a very bumpy ride. Every now and

then, their bodies would be thrown up and down with the cart's motion.

Ethan suddenly burst out in laughter.

Olivia looked at him and asked, "Why are you laughing?"

"I just feel like life here is very interesting. I would never have thought we'd be living such a life, you

driving a bullock cart while I shuck corn.

"This life isn't that bad. It's peaceful and simple. I even have the urge to spend the rest of my days here

with you. We can just be a normal married couple."

Olivia frowned. "I don't want that."

She had many things she needed to do and people she needed to kill.

She would be reminded of how Mona died in front of her whenever she looked at Cyril. Mona had such

a bright future ahead of her. She gave someone her heart but ended up getting shot to death by that

very same person.

Olivia's two-year plan was finally near its final stage. She would give that man a taste of the pain Mona

went through a hundred times over.

She was ready to exact revenge on everyone who had wronged her.

Ethan smiled and murmured, "Just consider it my wishful thinking, then."

They got to the field. Then, Olivia led Ethan to a cornfield and said, "Harvest this part. I'll come around

and get the corn later."

"Alright."

Ethan's eyes were completely healed, but he had to pretend to be blind when he was with Olivia. That

way, he would at least be able to hold her hand occasionally.

Ethan would stare at Olivia for a while after each corn stalk he cut.

Olivia always wore plain clothes in the village. She worked very quickly and efficiently. She quickly

harvested a large

area.

"Liv is so amazing. She's such a fast learner, and she does everything so well," Ethan thought.

But a genius like her almost lost a promising future due to his past failings.

Ethan lowered his head and started to harvest the corn seriously. He worked for more than seven

hours in a row.

He was still standing because of his outstanding stamina. He continued to work as sweat dripped from

his face.

He slowed down when he noticed that Olivia was approaching.novelbin

"Take a break and drink some water."

"Okay." Ethan put down the sickle and sat down on a bundle of corn.

Olivia brought over some water and snacks. She handed him the bottle of water. Ethan started to chug

the water down.

The sweat rolled down his face. He only had his shirt on since it was very hot. He had rolled up his

sleeves and pant legs. The first three buttons on his chest were unbuttoned.

He looked very manly under the sun. His hand that held the bottle looked very muscular.

The cuts on his hands were already healed after more than ten days. He always had great self-healing

abilities.

Olivia had seen many sides of Ethan, but it was still her first time seeing him working on a farm.

His hair had grown much longer. He tied it to the back of his head like those young celebrities,

exposing his eyebrows.

A man like him was completely alluring even though he was sitting in a field.

Olivia unconsciously shifted her gaze from him. She wanted to take a small break before finishing the

work in the field.

The warm breeze blew at the two of them. Neither of them spoke.

Suddenly, some of the corn in the field started swaying.

Two people were talking.

"Let's do it here."

"It'd be bad if someone saw us, Aaron."

"There's no one here at this hour. Besides, no one would want to look at something like this."
