Chapter 1106
With Olivia gone, Mason had talked to Ethan about this matter several
times in the past few years.
Krystal had also been asking Mason to talk about this a lot.
But Ethan was a pretty important person to Mason, and he had
always respected Ethan’s wishes. So, this matter was just set aside
indefinitely.
Krystal had a shy expression on her face.
Mason continued, “You were unwilling in the past. I know you lov
your ex-wife deeply and wanted to remarry her someday.
“But she has been gone for four years. That’s a very long time. My
daughter has liked you for so many years.
“I wouldn’t mention it if you had someone you liked, but you’ve been
single for so long.
“I’ve always treated you like my son. Why don’t we make our bond
even stronger?”
Ethan had followed Mason for many years and resolved many
troublesome matters for him. He knew that Mason really held him in
high regard.
Once someone got to a position of power, all he would think about
was his authority.
Mason had gradually forgotten how he got to where he was. As he

grew older, he started to fear death and loss because he had too
much to lose.
Eventually, he started to fear Ethan. He felt like Ethan was far too
capable.

A sharp blade would be good for cutting down the enemy. But if he
couldn’t be controlled. He would become very dangerous.
That was why Mason helped bring the Kingstons to a position of
power.
He created a rival for Ethan. The goal was to strip Ethan of some of
the power he had and to keep him in check.
Otherwise, Ethan would’ve been promoted long ago.
He was urging Ethan to marry his daughter because he would only able to truly trust Ethan if they were family.
Linus said coldly, “My sister has waited so many years for you. As a man, you should be responsible for her, right?”
Tatiana played the role of a good cop. “Why are you two so stern? It
looks like we’re forcing him to marry Krystal.
“Ethan, you know I like you the most. I’ve treated you like my son, just
as Mason has. You’ve been well-behaved since you were young.
“I called you over to celebrate the festivities every year because I’ve
never seen you as an outsider. I’ve always thought how great it would be if you were a Heath.”
She sighed, then added, “Back then, you were determined to get
married. Mason and I were happy for you. But it didn’t last. The

relationship ended on a sour note.

“I felt bad for you and that Fordham woman. Neither of you were to
blame. You were from different worlds. You couldn’t possibly achieve
true happiness.
“You’re a smart man. You know what’s best for you. You and Krystal
are meant for each other.
“You are similar in social status, and Krystal is head over heels for
you. She’s been waiting for you all these years. She’s even promised
to treat your children well.
“Tell me, what do you think about this? Do you have any reservations?”
Olivia finally knew how cunning these people were. They utilized
sympathy and intimidation. It was clear they wanted to put Ethan on
the spot.
If she were right, they would probably try to entrap him morally.
Ethan discreetly took his hand out of Tatiana’s grasp and said, “I’m
sorry, Mrs. Heath. My biggest reservation is that I see Krystal as a
sister. I don’t have any romantic feelings for her.”
As soon as he said that, Krystal broke down into tears.
It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
