Chapter 199
Olivia closed her eyes. She could see herself chasing after Chloe throughout the years.
She never did understand why her mother was always unhappy.
She always thought that her mother might be happier if she was more obedient.
Even after Chloe had left for years, Olivia would find excuses for her whenever she missed her.
She thought that Chloe only left because she didn’t love Jeff. She thought that Chloe must have her reasons for leaving her daughter behind.
When she hadn’t reunited with Chloe, her image of her stayed as a gentle and kind woman.
She thought that Chloe would miss her as much as she missed her.
Now, it would seem like their emotions were not on the same wavelength.
Olivia took a deep breath. She swallowed the bloody taste in her throat once again.
When she opened her eyes, they were clear.
Olivia said slowly, “Ms. Parker, Mrs. Carlton. I hereby sever all ties with you. Just pretend like you never had a daughter. I’ll pretend I never had a mother.”
Chloe slapped Olivia in the face.
“Olivia Fordham, are you listening to yourself? Why did I give birth to such a rebellious daughter? Why are you so rude?”
Chloe clutched her chest and stared at Olivia angrily. “How did you turn out like this?”
Chris quickly came over and held Chloe’s hand. He took her side because she was the woman he loved.
“Olivia, your mother is just looking out for you. Do you know she has heart problems? You shouldn’t anger her like that. Come apologize to her.”
Normally, Marina wouldn’t have cared about what happened to Chloe.
But Olivia was here. She wouldn’t give up on a chance to disgust Olivia.
She held Chloe and pointed her finger at Olivia, saying, “Ms. Fordham, I know you blame me for taking Ethan from you.
“But no matter what, you shouldn’t anger your mother so much! Mother, are you okay? Butler, go get her a gla*s of water.”
Olivia thought that there must be something wrong with the world.
She was the one who got slapped. But she was also the one being reprimanded.
Chloe’s slap was powerful. It messed up Olivia’s hair.
Her hair covered half her face.
Blood began dripping to the floor from her chin. Ethan was the first one to notice and went over to her.
“Are you okay?” Ethan said with concern.
Olivia slowly raised her head. Her nose was bleeding profusely.
It was not a regular nosebleed. The blood was flowing endlessly. Ethan panicked at the sight of the blood.
“Raise your head.” Ethan quickly took a few pieces of tissues and stuck them into her nostril. But the tissues were unable to keep the blood back. They were quickly soaked in blood.
Chloe was shocked. She ran over in a panic and said, “What’s happening, Olivia? I thought I didn’t hit your nose. I
She wanted to hand Olivia some tissues, but Olivia slapped her hand away.
Chapter 199
“Don’t touch me!”
Olivia said to Chris, “Mr. Carlton, may I use your toilet?”
“Go ahead,” Chris said urgently. He regretted butting into their argument. It was supposed to be between mother and daughter.
Olivia went into the toilet alone and closed the door. The blood just flowed profusely into the basin when she lowered her head.
It was not only her nose. There was also blood in her throat.
She threw up some blood and watched as it swirled in the basin. Was she dying?
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 …
