Chapter 361
Marina was the one who kicked the door open. She approached Olivia with an angry expression. Raising her hand, she was about to slap Olivia.
“You bitch, why are you always lurking around?”
Chris grabbed Marina’s hand. He was utterly disappointed in Marina. He didn’t mind if she wasn’t brilliant, and he didn’t need her to be obedient either. But she shouldn’t be rotten.
Chloe was on the verge of death before her, and she wasn’t nervous in the slightest. She even
attacked Chloe.
Now, here she was, trying to slap Olivia for no good reason. Chris didn’t understand how his daughter had become so hateful.
“Stop this nonsense at once, Marina. Didn’t I tell you not to come here anymore?”
Chris’ words stirred Marina’s anger even more.
“Last time, it was that old bitch. This time, it’s the young bitch. Don’t forget that I’m your daughter, not her.”
Chris struck Marina with a resounding slap. She didn’t expect to be slapped. She didn’t even do anything but talk.
“All these years, Chloe set her daughter aside and cared for you every day. I don’t need you to be grateful, but at least don’t bite the hand that fed you. Look at you now, spewing such vulgarities. Why have you become so vile?”
“I’m vile? What about Olivia? She’s trying to sabotage my marriage. Isn’t she worse? She’s just like her mother. They’re both whores that want to steal other people’s husbands.”
Her words upset Chris further. He started to clutch his rapidly heaving chest.
Olivia noticed that something was wrong. She didn’t argue with Marina but went to help Chris.
“Calm down, Mr. Carlton. You should sit down and catch your breath.”
Olivia’s actions triggered Marina, who angrily grabbed her arm and said, “Let go! You stole my husband, and now you’re trying to steal my father. Why are you so shameless? Why can’t you leave us alone?”
Olivia stopped Chris from trying to get back up and stood between him and Marina. She hadn’t spoken a word to Marina since she appeared. She looked at Marina with an icy expression.
“Marina Carlton, anyone with a brain can tell you who the real third wheel is. I don’t want to argue with you on this. Take a good look at your father. Look at how frail he is now.”

Olivia pointed at Chris and said, “I didn’t know Mr. Carlton well back then. But I remember him coming back to Aldenvine in high spirits. But look at him now. He’s been working day and night to try and save his wife.
“Not only are you not trying to help, but you’re also actively causing trouble for him.”
Marina didn’t try to understand what Olivia was trying to tell her. She ignored the graying hair on Chris’ head, crossed her arms, and said viciously, “He had it coming. It’s his fault for not loving my mom.
“She’s dead now, so all of you should just die too. Chris Carlton, I’ll make you regret these two slaps.”
Marina glared at them, put down the fruit basket she held, and ran off without looking back.
For some reason, Olivia felt uneasy as she watched Marina leave.
Chris rubbed his temple and said with a bitter smile, “Sorry you had to see that. She’s been spoiled since she was young.”
Olivia didn’t want to talk about Marina. They were sworn enemies, after all.
“Mr. Carlton, you don’t look so good. You should get a medical examination. You mustn’t collapse.”
“I’m fine, I …”‘
Chris fell over before he could finish his sentence.
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 …
