Chapter 201
Ethan had no choice when everyone was looking at him. He looked at Olivia and said, “I have no plans of canceling my engagement with Marina.”
Marina swallowed nervously. She quickly looked at Ethan and asked, “Ethan, does that mean that … you pick me?”
Ethan nodded.
It was like a huge stone had been lifted off Marina’s chest. She ran to Ethan excitedly and wrapped her hands around his arm.
“I knew you loved me, Ethan! Dad, Grandpa, did you hear that?”
The anger on Otto’s face subsided. “You better mean what you say.”
“I’ll be counting on you to take care of my daughter from now on.” Chris patted Ethan on the shoulder.
Olivia had expected this outcome. But even if she had known, she still felt a freezing chill in her heart when she heard it.
She pulled her hand away from Ethan and said, “I respect your decision, Ethan.”
Ethan watched as she left. He had no choice since Otto was there.
Chloe thought about it for a while. Then, she went after Olivia.
Olivia straightened her back as she left. She was like a lone wolf dragging her hurt b*dy to a secluded area to heal.
“Liv.” Chloe caught up to Olvia. “I want to talk with you.”
Olivia looked at Chloe, who was panting. She knew this woman better than she ever did after today.
She decided that she would not hold any unrealistic expectations of this woman anymore.
“Don’t worry, Mrs. Carlton. I will not bother your son-in-law again,” Olivia said coldly.
Chloe blocked her way and said, “Liv, give me five minutes. Just give me five minutes.”
Olivia looked at her coldly. “You’ve already achieved your goal.
“The person you need to watch is Ethan, not me. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.”
“Liv.”
Olivia tasted blood in her throat again. She frowned and pushed Chloe aside.
She quickened her steps to get away from her.
Chloe called out to her from behind her, then she fainted.
Olivia turned back and saw that. She instinctively wanted to go ch*ck on her.
It would seem like she wasn’t lying about her heart condition.
She noticed that Chris had come after Chloe. So she turned and left quickly.
She then went to a deserted corner and began to throw up blood.
Olivia leaned against a tree before slowly sliding down.
She wiped the blood on the corner of her mouth with her hand and laughed at herself.
She was such a failure. Throughout her life, she hadn’t been able to keep anyone by her side.
Her family and her lover all went to Marina’s side instead.
The thought of that made her ch*st hurt so much she almost couldn’t breathe.
Then, she knelt on the ground with a hand holding onto a branch. She kept throwing up blood.

She looked at the puddle of blood. Her first thought was that it was lucky that she didn’t embarra*s herself before the Carltons.
She hadn’t eaten anything. Her stomach felt like it was burning up after she threw up several times.
It was unfortunate that she forgot to bring her medication with her. She had been in a rush.
She curled up into a ball under the tree. Her consciousness began to fade.
She wanted to call for an ambulance on her phone. She didn’t want to die. She couldn’t die today.
Her eyesight was getting fuzzy, and her fingers were trembling.
She slowly inputted the numbers into the phone. She only needed to tap on the dial button.
But she lost consciousness before it could happen. Darkness consumed her.
She fell onto the ground with a thud.
In the last flashes of her consciousness, she thought she saw Ethan driving away in a car.
She could also hear footsteps. A person came before her and sighed.
The person then crouched down and lifted Olivia up.
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 …
