Chapter 306
A pale Olivia rested herself against the doorframe. Her whole b*dy was shaking in fear.
Memories of what happened on that island popped into her head.
Ethan intruded on the place while carrying Connor in his arms. He threatened to kill everyone on the island only to convince her to go back with him.
That day, she pleaded for their lives by promising that she would not leave him forever.
Yet, she broke her promise.
Ethan’s face crossed her mind, saying, “I told you you can’t run away from me.”
Colin noticed her standing by the doorframe. Her hair was a mess because of the wind.
He ran up to her. “Olivia, you look awful. Is your stomach hurting?”
She finally pulled her senses back. The breeze sent chills down her skin.
Trembling, she said, “Colin, I regret it now.”
“Olivia, what are you talking about? Freedom is one step ahead of us. Just hold on. We will win soon.”
She shook her head. “No. It doesn’t work that way. Ethan will never let me go. Send me back.
“I promised him that I would never leave Aldenvine. If he catches me, you’ll be in trouble.”
Patiently, he said, “Olivia, as I said, it’s just the maritime police doing their job. Don’t overthink it.
“Think about Mr. Fordham. You’ll be able to meet with him soon.
“I told them to clean up the place on the island. It’s very pretty over there. There are a lot of paper flowers of different colors. They’re gorgeous.
“And the coconut trees line up across the road. You can pluck coconuts and have a cooling coconut drink whenever you like. I drank it before. It’s sweet and fresh.
“The water is crystal clear, too. You can see the fish swimming. Don’t you like snorkeling? We can go snorkeling together to see the beautiful coral reefs and butterflyfish.
“All you and Mr. Fordham have to do is to focus on your recovery. You can sleep and wake up at a
Colin was painting Olivia’s dream life.
Anticipation flashed in her eyes. “Can we really do that?”
“Of course, Olivia. I will never lie to you. Alright, it’s windy out here. Let’s head inside.”
She did as he said. She gradually calmed herself under his comforting words.
you want.”
She smiled self-mockingly, thinking, “Ethan is not a God. It’s not like he has superpowers that allow him to see the whole world. How could he possibly know where I am?”
Then, two maritime officers boarded the ship.
They showed their police badges before stating that they were tracking down a group of drug dealers
They requested everyone’s cooperation to inspect the ship.
The captain smiled gently. “Please, have it your way. We’re civilized people. We should give our full cooperation to the police.”
“Thank you.” The female officer looked at the male officer before they headed for the cabin.
When he reached the door, the captain explained, “That’ll be troublesome. My family is resting inside.
“Sorry, we’re doing our job. Please be cooperative.” The two officers entered the cabin.

olivia was lying in bed, covering her face with a blanket.
The female officer walled to the bed and reminded Olivia expressionlessly, “Miss, please be cooperative and pull your blanket
down.”
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 …
