Chapter 794
The food for dinner was on the sour side. Olivia didn’t like that but took a few bites of everything.
In the following days, there were more sour foods in the meals. She couldn’t take it anymore..
She called Logan over and said, “There have been too many sour dishes recently. I’m a little tired of them.”
“Alright, Ms. Fordham. What do you prefer? I’ll note it down and tell the kitchen.”
Olivia observed his expressions carefully. But his mannerisms and movements didn’t resemble Ethan at
all.
Even if Ethan were the only one who knew her so well, he wouldn’t drop everything to stay by her side.
Besides, he was a proud man. He wouldn’t be so subservient.
Olivia had observed Logan for a few days but found nothing suspicious. She started to relax and stopped
distancing herself from Logan.
The days out at sea were indeed dull. Even if the view was great, it got old after an extended period of
time.
Olivia was sitting on the deck. The sunset was most beautiful at this hour.
The evening breeze was blowing gently. Olivia wasn’t wearing a hat.
She didn’t care about her image at all. Even if some of the sailors’ gazes fell on her bald head, she could
face them calmly.
Some hairs were starting to grow on her head, making it look like a kiwi fruit.
Logan glanced at her head and asked with concern, “Ms. Fordham, the winds are getting a little chilly. Do
you need a hat?”
“I don’t. This is fine.”
Olivia patted the seat next to her and said, “Come talk with me.”
After observing Logan for a few days, her suspicions were cleared up. So, she was more open with him.
The days on the ship were very dull. Her emotions had been bottled up, and she was starting to feel
depressed.
Logan was considerate. He started the conversation. “Ms. Fordham, do you know what our next stop is?”
Olivia gazed at the sea, and her mind was blank. “I’ve never paid any attention to that.”
*Falconer Straits.”
Olivia’s expression changed. Even though she had never been here, she had read about the place in books
and heard about it on social media platforms.
It was one of the most notorious places in the world. It wasn’t because of the view but because of its
nickname-Devil’s Chasm.
This part of the ocean had been abandoned by all the countries from the last century. Since then, it had
developed into a lawless place where criminals thrived.
There were plenty of pirate groups in this area that scared people away.
This route was a necessary pa*sage between the north and south. A lot of merchant ships were
plundered in the earlier years. Some horrifying and atrocious incidents also happened in the region.
The military forces of the surrounding nations joined forces to eliminate the pirates. Most of them were
killed, while others ran away.
The route has been relatively peaceful in recent years, but the pirates weren’t completely rooted out yet.
“Are there still pirates in the area? Olivia asked with a frightened expression.
She just wanted to have a smooth trip without any complications.
“The surrounding nations banded up and took down the pirates five years ago. A lot of the pirates’ main
forces were obliterated.
“But these people are like roaches. They come back very quickly.”
Olivia felt a chill down her spine when she heard his serious voice. She bit her l*p and asked, “Are we in
danger?”
Logan looked at her and said slowly, “I won’t let anything happen to you.”
“You… Why are you telling me all this?” Olivia was puzzled.
“I just wanted you to have a clearer understanding of your current situation.”
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 …
