Chapter 548
Ethan washed up and got changed before rushing to the hospital.
He asked before entering the room. “How is she doing?”
Kelvin quickly responded, “It’s weird. Mrs. Miller didn’t throw a tantrum and even asked to have an extra meal.”
“Did she say anything?”
“She asked about the other men’s condition and how many enemies we captured. She also asked if Warren was one of them.
She seemed calm the whole time.”
“What did you answer?”
“I told her the truth, that Warren escaped. The other people were under strict interrogations. She didn’t say anything after
that. She said that she was tired and needed some rest.”
Kelvin scratched his head before continuing, “Mr. Miller, what’s up with Mrs. Miller? The way she’s acting right now kinda
scares me. She’s too calm about it, so calm that it sends chills down my spine.”
“It looks like she didn’t lie to me.”
Initially, Ethan was worried that Olivia was trying to distract him to commit suicide. Fortunately, she had figured it out.
He entered the room with light steps, and the person on the bed opened her eyes.
Olivia’s eyes showed determination. “I knew that you wouldn’t rest. Pull out the bed from that sofa and get some rest.”
He gazed at her for a while. “Liv, are you really alright?”
“How am I not? I’m sticking to the doctor’s treatment to be back on my feet as soon as possible. Plus, I think I can feel my right hand. Find me the best doctor.”
Although she didn’t stop the treatment for her hand, she couldn’t take a lot of medicines or follow some treatments due to her pregnancy.
Fortunately, the physiotherapist had been treating her. She only realized that she could feel her right hand a moment ago.
This was the only good news in her terrible life.
“Okay. But the preterm delivery has affected your b*dy. So, you have to be bedridden for a month. I will make arrangements for the treatment, but we can’t rush things.”
Olivia looked at the dried autumnal leaves. “Since we’ve captured some of their men, did we manage to get anything out of them?”
“It’s The Black Ravens. But they were only listening to orders, which was to kill their target. They didn’t have the authority to know who the benefactor was.”
“How many were they?”
“100.”
She lifted her gaze. “This is not my forte. Is this considered a lot?”
“The Black Ravens is the most famous a*sa*sin organization in the world. They cultivate a*sa*sins since they’re young.
“Other than that, the ones eligible to join them are skillful combatants like retired special forces, spies, and so on.
“They accept people from all over the world. And they rank themselves from C to S based on their skills.
“This time, there were 90 C Ranks, seven B Ranks, two A Ranks, and the remaining one whom they don’t even know which rank he belongs to.”
“What rank is Warren?”

“A Rank. He’s also the commander in charge of this mission.”
Olivia snickered. “He escaped?”
“He was shot in the leg and jumped into the sea. His status? Unknown.”
“How much does it cost to dispatch that many people?”
Ethan raised a finger. “This much.”
“One million dollars?”
He shook his head. “It goes up from 100 million dollars. As I said, they are skillful at fighting. It takes a lot of money, resources, and time to cultivate one.
“A handful of a*sa*sins are normally dispatched for a mission, and the price ranges from one million dollars to hundreds of
millions of dollars.”
She snorted. “That person has burned a hole in their pocket just to kill me. Who do you think it could possibly be?”
“Considering the motive, Marina and… Leia are suspicious. But 100 million dollars is a huge amount of money for Marina.
“I’ve looked into the Carltons’ bank account. Her entire family might not be able to pay that much money, let alone her. Besides, she wouldn’t have known the way to contact The Black Ravens.”
“Since it’s not Marina, it’s Leia?”
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 …
