Chapter 128
Marina was in her room, smashing anything she could get her hands on.
Meanwhile, Olivia was still in Ethan’s arms.
Olivia raised her head from his chest when there was no one else around.
They were standing on the deck, and it was still snowing.
– Ethan said in an icy tone, “Are you happy now?”
He wasn’t dumb. He knew that Olivia wouldn’t have tried to have S** with him in a place like that.
He had caught on before everything happened. He could’ve stopped it. But tonight, he didn’t want to.
He didn’t expect Marina to be so stupid. Her own trap backfired against her.
Olivia winked at him and said, “Why would I be unhappy? She was the one who wanted to set me up. Are you feeling sorry for her?”
Ethan’s eyes were filled with dissatisfaction.
He said to Olivia with a scowl, “Olivia, teaching her a lesson is not worth risking your own reputation. Did you truly win?”
Ethan was not one to reveal his emotions easily. But Olivia’s actions almost made him lose his cool.
“Have you ever given it a thought? On the surface, you have humiliated her. But it doesn’t change anything fundamentally.
“Everyone is well aware of how messed up the circle of the wealthy is. It will only be played for laughs. Her position is not going to be affected.”
“On the other hand, you would be marked as a mistress if I didn’t cover up your face in time.
“You would’ve been known as a mistress from today onward. How would you live like that? You would’ve won a battle but lost the war.”
Olivia met with his angry gaze and smiled.
“You’re smiling? You’re still in the mood to smile? Do you know what could’ve happened?”
“I would be mocked and made fun of by the ma*ses. What else? If things really got to that, wouldn’t you be happy instead? Why are you so mad?”
Olivia’s words seemed to have struck a chord.
She put her hands around his neck and smiled gently. “I thought you hated me? What? Are you getting worried for me?”
Ethan pulled her hands down. He said in a flustered tone, “Torturing you is my right. It has nothing to do with anyone else.”
Olivia suddenly smiled as the cold wind blew at her.
“Ethan, would you regret what you have done to me if you found out that my father did not hurt your sister?”
Olivia’s words shocked Ethan, causing ripples of emotions to stir in his heart.
Ethan leaned in closer and asked icily, “What are you talking about?”
The more the mastermind tried to hide things, the more sure Olivia was that something was wrong with Leia’s death.
But one thing she was sure about was that the mastermind must be someone powerful.
He was able to manipulate things under Ethan’s nose.
Olivia decided that it wasn’t time for her to reveal the truth yet.
She changed the subject and looked at the horizon. “Look, the snow tonight is beautiful.”
“Did you hear what I said, Olivia?”
Ethan was not a fan of cold winter nights. He preferred sunlight. It brought life to the world. The cold winter winds only served to devour everything. It covered the earth in one color. Olivia reached out and caught a snowflake. She was smiling, but her expression was cold. She stood before him and asked solemnly, “Today is the day our baby died, Ethan.
“Have you ever spared him a thought this past year? For even just a moment?”
Ethan’s arms tightened around her shoulders. He pursed his l*ps and said, “Olivia, that was our child. Of course, I’ve thought.
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 …
