Chapter 545
Olivia had no choice but to accept reality. It had happened, and regretting it would do nothing.
A lot of sacrifices were made in exchange for her life. From now onward, she wouldn’t be living only for herself.
“You don’t have to worry about me doing foolish things. Go home, get a shower, and have a good rest. Don’t worry, I won’t run away anymore.”
Ethan was surprised to hear her say that. It was as if she had become a completely different person after waking up.
Previously, she was a white magnolia; she always stood with her back straight with sophisticated grace, but she was harmless.
Now, she was a rose that came with thorns. Cold yet enticing, she could give anyone who came close to her pricks all over their b*dy.
“Liv, I’m not tired…” Ethan wasn’t sure about her current condition, so he wanted to stay by her side. He would decide after that.
Olivia didn’t say anything more about it. She cast her gaze at the closed door. “I heard someone crying. Who was it?”
“Mona’s parents. They demanded an explanation. Considering that Mona died for you, I told them about it. But they took advantage of it and kept causing a racket at the hospital.”
She shook her head, disapproving of his statement. “You will never know how it feels to be a mother.
“We’re willing to do anything for our children. This is not taking advantage.”
She lifted her blanket. She hadn’t fully recovered, so she didn’t have much strength in her.
Turning her head, she looked at him. “Could you help me out of the room? I want to ch*ck on them.”
“Okay.”
The moment the door was opened, a woman’s agonizing cry hit their ears at a louder volume.
Raising her gaze, Olivia looked far away to see a middle-aged woman dressed in plain clothes.
The latter’s hair was messy, and her eyes were red, expressing deep sorrow. She was grabbing Brent’s collar while crying.
There were a few red lines of scratches on his neck, bleeding.
Instead of dodging, he said calmly, “Madam, calm down. What’s done is done.”
“Calm down? How am I supposed to calm down? I entrusted my fine daughter to you, but why is she dead?”
A man was nearby, staring at the wall with despair. Nothing around him bothered him.
It seemed like they were Mona’s parents.
Olivia was resting most of her weight on Ethan. With a throaty voice, she chimed in, “Madam, Mona died for me. If you want to blame anyone, blame it on me.”
The woman turned to look at Olivia as her red eyes widened. “A-Are you Ms. Fordham?”
The woman heard a lot about Olivia from Mona. According to Mona, Olivia was a pretty, gentle, and agreeable superior.
However, Olivia had a hurtful past and didn’t have a lot of close acquaintances. Thus, Mona intended to take good care of Olivia so that she could deliver her babies safely.
Olivia was said to be six months pregnant. That woman gazed at Olivia’s flat belly, which wasn’t a sign of a six-month pregnancy at all,
She was gorgeous, but she seemed haggard. Her l*ps were parched, and her cheeks were skinny.
She didn’t look like a pregnant woman at all.
Anyone could see that Olivia was weak. A wind was all it took to blow her away.
As a mother herself, the woman stopped throwing a tantrum.
She watched Olivia approach her step by step. Those steps were difficult yet firm.
Slowly Olivia dragged herself before kneeling in front of the woman.
“Madam, I’m the cause of your daughter’s death. If you want to kill or punch anyone, you can come at me.”
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 …
