Chapter 729
Olivia, you shouldn’t have done that.
Those words reverberated in her mind. She saw how self-deprecating she used to be and how haughty
Ethan was.
He didn’t trust her at all. He looked at her like she was a piece of trash.
What heinous crime did she commit to have him look at her with such disdain?
Olivia’s head started to hurt as the memories resurfaced.
The pain was unbearable.
“What’s wrong, Liv? Is your stomach hurting again?” Ethan asked as he held her hand.
Olivia looked at Ethan and grabbed his wrist. With an icy expression, she said, “Ethan, you shouldn’t have
done that.”
Ethan’s expression froze.
Then, Olivia flung his hand away. “Didn’t you want me gone? That’s fine. Just stop all treatment. Things
will turn out the way you want them to.”
Obviously, Olivia remembered something. It made Ethan fearful and uneasy.
This was the worst-case scenario.
“Liv, there were some misunderstandings between us in the past. But that’s all behind us now. Don’t think
too much about it. Right now, I just want you to live,” Ethan said.
“What if I refuse to go through with chemotherapy?”
“Liv, if there is a way to get through this without chemotherapy, I wouldn’t have asked for it. There isn’t a
better way. Give me more time, okay? I’ll find a way to save you.”
No matter what Ethan said, Olivia wouldn’t listen. “No need.”
“Liv, don’t force my hand.” Ethan reached out and caressed her face gently. A haunting look filled his slightly reddened eyes.
“Ethan, if I can’t choose how I live, I will choose how I die. Let me go. I just want to live the remainder of my life with dignity,” Olivia said.
Ethan didn’t let up. “I’m sorry, Liv. My only desire is for you to live.”

Then, he ordered Keith, “You can begin now.”
Olivia still had a catheter on the back of her hand. She started to struggle when she saw Keith hanging up a bag of medicine.
She wasn’t as strong as Ethan, so he was able to subdue her very quickly..
She was like an angry little animal as she glared at Ethan. “I’ll definitely remove the needle unless you keep me under control.
Keith quickly advised, “Olivia, the chemotherapy drugs are corrosive. It would be bad if they leaked. Please cooperate.”
“Let me go, Ethan! I don’t want chemotherapy!” Olivia protested.
Ethan hugged her tightly and comforted her, “Please endure it, Liv. You’ll get better.”
With the life she was living, was there even a difference if she recovered? She would just spend her days like a lifeless corpse anyway.
Keith looked at the two of them.
One wanted to leave, while the other wanted her to stay.
Both of them were trying their best to go in the opposite direction. But the only outcome would lead to both of them getting hurt.
As an outsider, Keith was in no position to interject. He could only watch the whole thing unfold.
“Mr. Miller, we’re ready. You should comfort Olivia and stop aggravating her. Also, you have to keep still when we start the glutathione drip, as it would cause nausea.”
As things were, that was the only thing Keith could do for Olivia.
Keith left after he said that.
Only Ethan was left, hugging Olivia tightly.
Olivia’s expression darkened as she was locked down in place by him. “Why are you doing this?”
Ethan replied, “I’ll do anything as long as it keeps you alive. Liv, please promise me that you won’t give up, okay?”
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 …
