Chapter 669
Janice pushed open the door and frowned when she looked at Olivia, who was fast asleep.
She sighed and muttered, “What an unfortunate child.”
Ethan had inherited the obstinance from her and Kenneth. Janice couldn’t really say if the woman
being loved by Ethan should be considered lucky or not.
“No!” Olivia abruptly woke from a nightmare.
She was covered in sweat. The person she saw when she opened her eyes was Janice instead of
Ethan. She felt like she had embarra*sed herself.
“Mom.”
“Dear child, it’s me. I’m just here to ch*ck on you. Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. It’s just a nightmare.” Olivia rubbed her head.
“What kind of nightmare?”
Olivia couldn’t remember the details of the dream. She could only recall that it was very chaotic
and bloody.
She couldn’t recall the faces she saw in the dream. But she could feel the person’s blood on her
face like it was real.
The dream was so realistic that Olivia felt like it was something she had experienced.
In the dream, people were lying motionless on the ground everywhere.
It was raining, and the ground was soaked in rain and blood. If that was something that actually
happened, Olivia couldn’t even begin to imagine how gruesome it was.
She could still feel a chill when she thought about it.
Olivia shook her head. “I don’t remember anymore. I just know that it was terrifying.”
Noticing that she was feeling down, Janice comforted her, “I heard that you have a pet cat in
Aldenvine. I’ll get someone to transport it over here.
“You might feel better if you’re reunited with your pet in a foreign place.

“Thanks, Mom.”
Olivia felt closer to Janice.

Janice was a really considerate person, but she was hurt so deeply by a man. Olivia felt bad for her.
Olivia suddenly inhaled as she clutched her stomach. She was in shock during the day, so she
didn’t eat much. Her stomach was acting up.
“Does it hurt a lot?”
“Yeah. I’m quite hungry.”
“I’ll get someone to bring food over right away.”
Olivia drank a gla*s of warm water to ease the pain. For some reason, she started to feel uneasy.
Even if she had gastric issues, she felt like the pain was too frequent.
She wasn’t like this when she had just regained consciousness. The pain slowly increased over
the days.
The medicine could only ease the pain temporarily. It was like a wound that didn’t get better after
medication and worsened instead.
She figured that it was time for her to get an in-depth checkup.
She endured the pain and ate dinner so Janice wouldn’t be worried. Olivia had figured out a pain.
pattern.
It wouldn’t last. She just had to bear with it for a few minutes.
“Mom, where’s Ethan?” Olivia tried to change the subject to take her mind off the pain.
“He went to find the culprit.”
“The culprit? Does he know who it is?”
Janice wouldn’t tell Olivia what methods Ethan used, so she glossed over it.
“Yeah, surveillance footage showed that someone had tampered with the car. You should stay
home for now. It’s dangerous out there.”
“What about Ethan? Wouldn’t he be in danger as well?” Olivia asked concernedly with her hand
over her chest.
“Don’t worry, he knows what he’s doing.”
Ethan met with Kelvin. They were at an abandoned warehouse by the beach.
“What’s the situation?”
“Don’t worry, Mr Miller. Brent followed him all the way here. We must be in the right place.
“I saw him entering the building. The place is surrounded by our people. He can’t possibly escape.
We just need to go in and capture him.”
Ethan cautioned, “Be careful. This man is very alert.”
“Understood. We’ll rush in to capture him when Brent gives the signal.”
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 …
