Chapter 351
Olivia was stunned. Even when they were back on the cruise ship, Ethan hadn’t k*ssed her so deeply. Just as she realized something was wrong, she was already trapped and couldn’t break
free.
Ethan’s limbs were wrapped around her like thick vines, giving her no time to catch her breath. Ethan might have held back when he was conscious due to his guilt. Now that he was not in his right mind, he was acting on instinct.
Olivia tried to struggle but to no avail.
Ethan felt grounded when he could smell her scent.
“Wake up, Ethan. Do you have any idea what you’re doing?”
Ethan held her hands above her head, effortlessly defusing her attacks. There was a lot of sweat on his forehead. He said hoarsely, “Liv, I’ve never been so sure of what I’m doing. I told
you, we’ll have kids of our own.”
Kids …
Oliva didn’t understand why Ethan was so hung up on the subject. She just wanted to get away.
“Let me go, Ethan. Don’t make me hate you.”
“If hate can become the bond that binds us, then hate me all you want.”
There was only a sliver of light shining into the room. It illuminated the area around Ethan’s
is face was hidden in the dark, like a rose blooming in the shadows-seductive but

Ethan fell back to sleep with a high fever. Olivia gritted her teeth as she headed to the bathroom to wash up. She even went back and cleaned Ethan up.
She didn’t want to be entangled with Ethan anymore. Since he thought it was a dream, she was prepared to let him keep thinking that.
She acted as if nothing happened and exited the room.
“He’s still feverish and hasn’t woken up yet. The doctor has already given him medication. I really hope he gets better soon.”
Kelvin said, “Mrs. Miller, you might not know this, but Mr. Miller hasn’t rested well in a long time. Especially the few days following your kidnapping. He searched for you without resting. He really cares about you.”

Olivia didn’t want to discuss that with Kelvin, so she changed the subject. “Let him sleep a little bit more and see if the fever goes down. He’s in good shape. It’s probably no big deal.”
Kelvin was at a loss for words. Olivia had completely ignored what he said. Kelvin understood that Olivia didn’t want to a*sociate herself with Ethan too much, so he gave up on the topic.
Raising his head to look at Olivia, he said, “Mrs. Miller, your face looks red. Do you also have a fever? Do you need me to get the doctor for you?”
“I’m fine. I just showered in the bathroom just now. My skin’s just flushed from the hot water. Since he’s not going to be awake for a while and I didn’t sleep well last night, I’ll sleep in the other bedroom. Let me know when he wakes up.”
Olivia spoke very naturally, so Kelvin didn’t suspect anything was wrong.
“Alright, please use the bedroom as you please. This is your home too. There’s nothing wrong even if you sleep on the same bed as Mr. Miller.”
Olivia thought about something and said coldly while suppressing her unease,
“Don’t forget that we’re divorced. I wouldn’t have come here today if I didn’t need to talk to him about something.”
She then went back upstairs to the second bedroom. Shutting the curtains, she buried herself in the sheets. She was very tired, but she couldn’t fall asleep. Every time she closed her eyes, she’d remember what happened in Ethan’s room.
Olivia rubbed her temples tiredly. She hoped that Ethan would only think of what happened as a dream so that he would forget about it when he woke 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 …
