Chapter 666
Olivia’s fear didn’t really come from the car spiraling out of control. It came from her
subconscious.
As they approached the slope, the driver tried his best to keep the car steady, but the car quickly
accelerated to a dangerously fast speed.
Olivia could hear the winds roaring in her ears. The winds were so loud they drowned out the
sounds of Ethan’s heartbeat.
Images began flashing in her mind. A car barrelled down the road in the rain, lightning flashed,
and the sound of the thunder was deafening.
There were also the blood-curdling cries of a woman.
Olivia cried out in pain as she clutched her head. She was having a splitting headache.
“Don’t be afraid, Liv. I’m here,” Ethan said as he tightly wrapped his arms around her.
Olivia reflexively grabbed Ethan’s collar. She closed her eyes and yelled, “I’m scared, Ethan. I’m so
scared!”
Olivia wasn’t scared of death. It seemed to be something that was worse than death. But she didn’t
understand what she was afraid of if she wasn’t scared to die.
As the winds kept blowing into the car, Olivia felt like her soul was being sucked out of her b*dy.
For an instant, a dreadful thought flashed in her mind. Maybe it would have been better if she died
here. Her life was terrible anyway.
Olivia was shocked by that thought when she came back to her senses. She was living a good life.
Why would she want to die?
The car was going over 100 miles per hour. Ethan hugged Olivia tightly and comforted her, “Don’t
be afraid.”
Olivia felt like the truth was within reach, but it didn’t come to her. She simply couldn’t recall
what had happened.
The driver said with a serious expression, “Brace yourselves. We’ll be arriving at the designated
collision area in around six miles.

It wasn’t a long distance, but every second of it was torture. A single miscalculation or accident
could be catastrophic. If any car from oncoming traffic crossed over, the results would be
devastating.
Luckily, Ethan managed to get the situation under control quickly. There weren’t a lot of cars
around.
They were able to get to the designated collision area that the police set up without a hitch.
“Everyone get ready. We’re about to crash.”
The driver was a man of great mental fortitude. He was calm from the beginning.
The car’s momentum carried it for some distance before coming to a stop.
The instant the car screeched to a halt, Olivia didn’t feel weak at the knees, just that the stomach
pains subsided while she was overwhelmed with anxiety.
“Are you okay?” Ethan immediately checked on her.
Olivia shook her head. “I’m fine. Mom, are you okay?”
Janice, who was sitting in the front pa*senger seat, took off her seat belt. Her expression was
calm as if they were just on a road trip. She never let out a scream throughout the entire ordeal.
“Death doesn’t scare me.”
Janice had had several close encounters with death. She was calm as she got out of the car.
Olivia’s head was still throbbing as Ethan helped her out of the car. She looked at the ocean and
frowned as she tried to recall the images in her mind.
What important memory did she forget? It was right before her, but she couldn’t figure it out.
Olivia sharply inhaled as she clutched her head and crouched down.
Ethan hugged her from behind. “Liv, you don’t have to force yourself to remember the past. You’ll
only make yourself suffer.”
“But what have I forgotten?”
Ethan tried to ease her restlessness. “It’s all in the past. The future is what matters, and the
present. Don’t you want to know who did this to us?”

Olivia raised her head slowly and met Ethan’s gaze.
“What happened wasn’t an accident. Someone intentionally sabotaged our car.”
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 …
