Chapter 593
The hand extended toward Nikki was fair, but the palm wasn’t too nice-looking. It was filled with visible scars.
There was a saying that a woman’s hand was just as important as her face.
From the woman’s hand, Nikki could see that Ethan shouldn’t be that serious about her. From her calloused hand, she must regularly do lots of physical labor.
Nikki extended her hand. She had been pampered since young, and she would insist on getting full-b*dy care every week. Hence, her hands were very nice-looking.
Her joints were balanced, and her fingers were slender. Her palms were pale and soft, and even her nails were taken care of flawlessly.
The glitter on her manicure shimmered. She looked like a luxury item on display.
After making the comparison, Nikki felt strongly superior.
She was confident that she would win this round.
“Thank you.” She didn’t decline Olivia’s kindness. As their palms touched, she wanted Olivia to realize the difference between
them.
She was the young lady of a century-old noble family. She was far above this woman, who was from a family that had gone bankrupt and fallen to ruin.
When their hands touched, Nikki felt something hard.
It was only then that Nikki saw the ring on Olivia’s finger.
The ring wasn’t extravagant, but it was well-designed. It looked quite special.
Looking up, Nikki finally saw Olivia’s face.
No one had taken a photo of Olivia from the front before. Later on, Ethan wiped out all the information about her. So, no one
could find her photos online.
When Lydia came back, she did tell Nikki about Olivia. She said that Olivia was an ugly woman who couldn’t even compare to a
tenth of Nikki.
This was Nikki’s first time meeting Olivia.
Olivia’s features were well-defined, and she looked good even without makeup.
Now, with makeup on, she was so beautiful that people would feel that she was on another level.
Even Nikki, who was quite confident with her looks, felt like she paled in comparison.
Olivia’s expression was calm, and she looked quite harmless. The silver glitter under her eyes made her look like a total beauty.
“Are you okay?” Her voice wasn’t forced, sounding casual and clear.
Nikki was stunned for a few moments. Then, she regained her senses. She realized that the woman in front of her was none other than her enemy.
She had lost to Olivia in the looks department.
“I-I’m fine.”
Reaching out, Ethan pulled Olivia into his arms. “Liv, this is Nikki Shaw.”
It was only then that Nikki noticed the ring on his finger. It matched Olivia’s.
It was quite rare to see married men wearing their wedding rings at such events.
Also, Ethan’s fingers were interlocked with Olivia’s. He didn’t care how others looked at him at all.
Olivia didn’t say anything, but Nikki felt like she was utterly defeated.
“Hello, Ms. Shaw,” Olivia greeted calmly.
Nikki was stunned for a moment before she returned to her senses. “Hello.”
Seeing the woman leaning against Ethan, Nikki was in a daze. Then, her heart was filled with jealousy.
“Is this…” Nikki pretended that she didn’t know their relationship.
After all, Lydia said that Ethan had gotten married in secret. No one knew that he had married Olivia.
If he truly loved her, there was no reason for him to hide her. After all, love should be expressed and shown to all.
Nikki concluded that Ethan didn’t love Olivia that much. Hence, she still had a chance.
Taking Olivia’s hand, Ethan said straightforwardly, “This is my wife, Olivia Fordham.”
Those few words were as clear as day.
They were enough to shock Nikki completely. She could barely maintain the smile on her face.
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 …
