Chapter 1117
Olivia wasn’t the naïve young woman she used to be. The people in power had access to more intelligence and resources than normal people.
It would be dangerous if she was close to Mason, but she could also acquire a lot more in return.
The most important thing is that she could also help Ethan discreetly. She could play a crucial role in helping him manipulate the situation.
Ethan was ready to get up before daybreak. Olivia wrapped her arms around his waist and nestled against his back.
“Are you leaving?”
“Yeah. I’ve been busy recently.”
“You come here to spend the night despite being so busy?” Olivia poked fun at him.
Ethan turned around, drew her into his arms, and k*ssed her.
“It’s because you’re too alluring. If I don’t keep an eye on you, I’m
afraid someone might take you from me.”
The two of them shared a long and passionate k*ss. They had been indulging in their lust a lot.
Since they abandoned their responsibilities, they were able to enjoy
themselves more.
Their lips parted after a long while. Ethan held her in his arms quietly
for a few minutes. “Liv, I really just want to have you in my arms like
this until the end of time.”
“That’s too heavy of a promise. I don’t want that. This will do. You should go.”
Ethan’s eyes darkened. He k*ssed her on the forehead. “Rest well. You
can contact me if you need me.”
He got up to freshen himself up after he said that. He left before the
sun was up.
Olivia didn’t get much chance to enjoy some peace and quiet. So, she
slept for a few more hours.
It was already the middle of the day when she woke up.
Her phone vibrated several times. It was Linus calling.
When she called again, Olivia picked up with a tired voice. “Hello?”
Linus was surprised. “You were still sleeping? I’m sorry. I didn’t know.”
́”Mr. Heath, how can I help you?”
“I’m at your door, Vanessa. I want to see you.”
“Please hold on for a moment.”
Olivia yawned and quickly made herself presentable. She changed her
clothes before heading downstairs.
There was a fleet of cars a short distance from the villa. The “001”
plate of the black car in the front was very striking.
Judging from the amount of snow that had gathered on top of the
car, they had been waiting for quite some time.
They didn’t barge into the villa because they wanted to show her
some respect.
Olivia walked out into the snow. Linus got out of his car when he saw
her. He extinguished the cigarette in his hand.
“Vanessa.”
“Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Heath.”
“It’s fine. Can we talk inside? If not, we can also talk in the car.”
“It’s okay. You can come in.”
Olivia led the way, and Linus followed her. The villa was immediately
surrounded by people standing watch. It became stressful.
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay. I understand.”
Olivia noticed that Linus was very sophisticated despite his position
of power. He was completely different from Krystal.
He even took the trouble to put on galoshes when he entered the villa.
“Coffee or tea?”
“I’d like some tea, thanks.”
Olivia sat at the tea table and started to boil some water to brew the
tea.
“Are you here for Mr. Heath?”

Linus handed her a check. “This is the payment for treating my father.”
Olivia glanced at the check. It was for two million dollars. It wasn’t
too high, but it wasn’t that low, either.
He was very smart. He didn’t offer an obscene amount, so Olivia
wouldn’t feel pressured when accepting it.
“I’ll happily accept this.”
After she accepted it, Linus handed her a contract.
“Vanessa, I sincerely hope you can become my father’s personal
doctor. As for the terms, you can tell me whatever you want.”
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 …
