Chapter 204
Chloe was crying as she told her story.
She described the missed opportunities and misunderstandings between her and Chris as incredibly sad and painful.
She didn’t know how to react when she heard what Olivia said.
There were still tears in her eyes. She looked comical as she tried to keep the tears from falling.
It was as if she was wondering why Olivia didn’t feel any compa*sion for her. She had such a sad life.
She began to wonder if Olivia was truly heartless.
“Mrs. Carlton, losing Chris might have been the worst thing that ever happened to you. But do you know what it means to have a family destroyed?
“Do you know how helpless I felt when my family left me one by one?
“Do you know how much pain I felt when I went from being a princess to a nob*dy that anyone could spit on?”
Olivia smirked and said, “In your world, a mosquito sting requires medical attention.
“How would you ever understand how I feel? I have to try my best just to stay alive.”
Olivia was envious of her mother.
Chloe was the kind of person who only lived for herself. Nothing was more important than her feelings.
Not even Chris, who had always loved her. Not even her own daughter, who had been chasing after her and begging for the smallest bit of attention.
All these can be sacrificed for the sake of her pursuit of love.
Chloe didn’t understand what Olivia was thinking. She thought Olivia would understand her after knowing her story.
She didn’t expect her to be so emotionless.
Chloe felt defeated. But she remembered that Olivia had always obeyed her as a child, so she had one last option.
“Liv, I know you have suffered these years. I wasn’t with you then. But now I’m back. I’ll never let anyone hurt you again.”
Olivia met Chloe’s gaze. She hesitated slightly for an instant when she saw the sincerity in her eyes.
But Chloe then said, “I’ve been there since Marina was a child. She is a very outstanding woman.
“I think she suits Ethan well. Can you please listen to me and let her have Ethan?”
Olivia was dumbfounded, but Chloe had more to say.
Chloe noticed that Olivia was silent.
She continued, “It’s not that I love her more. The thing is, you’re already divorced from Ethan.
“If you continue to cling to him, your reputation will be ruined.
“Another thing is, the two of them already had a child together. Can you not break them up for Connor’s sake?”
Olivia had always had this feeling that she was adopted when she was younger.
She started to feel like that again. She wondered how Chloe was able to utter those words.
She claimed not to love Marina more. Yet, every word she said was in Marina’s interest.
Olivia looked at her and said with amusement, “Have you ever thought about this?
“Marina is the third wheel in this relationship. And Ethan is the one clinging on to me, not the other way around.
“I’ll be thankful if you can convince him to stay away.”

Chloe was taken aback. Her brows began to furrow. She had a look of disbelief.
“Liv, I know you might have a big misunderstanding with me. But please do not take your anger out on Marina.”
Olivia was shocked. Chloe had suddenly knelt down while she was talking.
Tears flowed from Chloe’s eyes. She said in a sad tone, “I’ll use the rest of my life to make up for the sufferings I caused you.
My only request is that you let Marina off the hook. Please just let her and Ethan be.”
Olivia’s condition had stabilized. But she felt her blood boil when she heard Chloe’s words.
She began to see red.
There were so many things wrong with what Chloe said. But Olivia couldn’t form any words in her mouth.
She was so angry her entire b*dy was shaking.
The door opened with a bang. A group of people were standing at the door.
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 …
