Chapter 121
Colin did not know how to respond. Although Olivia was talking about Snowball, Colin had the feeling that she was talking about her own funeral instead.
“I’ve got it, Olivia.”
“It has to be the tallest tree in the yard. That tree blooms with branches full of plum blossoms in the winter.
“The scent of the flowers goes well with the cold white snow. I’ll be waiting for her there.”
No one would have guessed that she meant she would be waiting there after she was dead.
“Okay, but you can also visit Snowball when you are free.”
Olivia took off her diamond earrings and handed them to Colin. “I came out in a rush today and don’t have anything on me.
”
“But please hand these earrings to Snowball. She has always loved shiny little trinkets since she was a kitten.”
Okay. If you’re too busy, I can also bring her to you if you give me an address. I bet she’ll be delighted to see you.”
“No need.” Olivia was running out of time.
Ethan arrived just in time to see Colin pulling Olivia onto the deck. They were standing side by side.
Both of them were wearing black clothes.
Snowflakes were dancing around them. It painted a beautiful picture.
Ethan recalled that Olivia once ruffled his hair a few years ago out of boredom. “It’s boring how you always just slick your hair back
“You should try letting your hair down occasionally. It’ll make you look more youthful.”
At that, Ethan suddenly said, “Am I getting old?”
Brent glanced at the youthful Colin and said, “You’re mature, Mr. Miller. You’re dignified, unlike the younger kids.”
“But she thinks I’m too old.”
Brent tried to hold back a smile. Recently, Ethan has been acting like a jealous housewife.
“You’re overthinking things, Mr. Miller. You’re only 27 years old. You’re still in the best years of your life.
“Compared to young and immature boys, you’re definitely Mrs. Miller’s type. You’re the type of man that most girls are attracted to.”
Right after Brent finished talking, two young ladies walked past them.
One of them said, “I finally got my father to get me two tickets to XO’s concert! Let’s go together after a few days! I am in love with Ryan’s puppy–dog eyes!”
Ethan frowned and said, “Even brandies hold concerts now?”
Brent covered his mouth with his fist and coughed as he said, “No, XO is an idol group from Carathia that quickly rose to fame
after their debut
Ethan was still frowning “Even a dog can debut as a star now?”
Ethan was a very capable man. He could fly jets and man a submarine
He could even make waves in the corporate world. But he knew nothing about the idol industry.
“Mr. Miller, she didn’t mean a real dog when she said puppy dog eyes. She was talking about young hunks that have just
debuted”
“Young hunks?”
Brent sighed and said, “They are a group of youthful talent show contestants. They look young and youthful and attract female fans of all ages.
“These fans would sometimes describe them as their ‘babies,‘ ‘puppies‘ or ‘huskies.”
Ethan looked at Brent angrily.
Brent was taken aback. He started to wonder if he had explained something wrong and made Ethan mad.
“Then why would you say that I’m Olivia’s type? Clearly, she’s having a lot of fun talking with a young hunk.”
Brent was at a loss for words. He was caught in a lie.
Olivia didn’t know what Ethan was thinking about when he stood there. She only felt a fiery gaze that was directed at her from the window.
Suddenly, a wave struck the ship and caused it to sway. The abrupt movement put Olivia off balance.
“Olivia!”
Colin quickly grabbed her waist. She fell into Colin’s arms due to the momentum.

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 …
