Chapter 831
Ethan was a huge man, but at that moment, he behaved like a clingy puppy. Olivia’s b*dy trembled slightly. The difference between their capabilities and strength was just too huge.
She knew that she couldn’t provoke him too much under such circumstances. If not, he would feel an even stronger sense of possessiveness when he got furious.
When that happened, it would truly be game over.
Olivia took a deep breath. While he still had some rationality left in him, she began to appeal to it. “Logan,
I can help you in other matters, but I can’t do this.”
“You can’t? Is it because you’re still thinking of that man?” At that moment, Ethan’s wits were also on the
verge of breaking.
He was suppressing his desires as much as he could. He wanted to grab this chance to understand
Olivia’s deepest thoughts.
She didn’t want other people to touch her. Did it mean that she still loved him?
Olivia frowned deeply. “No, we’re already divorced. The both of us can get married to whomever we
please. This has nothing to do with him.”
A look of disappointment flashed across Ethan’s eyes. “If that’s the case, then why can’t I do it? Ms.
Fordham, I can take responsibility for you.
“I’ll love and care for your child, and I’ll treat her like my biological daughter. I will never let you down.”
After a pause, he added, “If you don’t like relationships like that, I can still treat you with the utmost
respect, like always. I won’t be involved in your life. Just treat tonight as an adult game and nothing more.”
“Sorry, I’m not interested in games like that. Logan, it’s not that I can’t accept you. It’s just that that man
has hurt me too deeply. I never want to be involved with any man again for the rest of my life.
“It’s not your fault. Just let go of me right now. We can still get along like we used to, and I’ll pretend this never happened.”
But Ethan’s fingers kept rubbing her delicate skin. Leaning in, he asked, “Ms. Fordham, it has been so long. Don’t you ever have needs you want to fulfill?”
His voice was suggestive, and it caused her imagination to run wild at times like this.
Olivia blushed. Under the dim lights outside, she could see Ethan’s throat S**ily moving as he gulped

They were very close to each other. She could feel Ethan’s decent build. It was quite attractive for women.
“No” She looked away “Let go.
Ethan didn’t proceed further. Instead, he tightened his hug
Olivia didn’t know what he was planning. Her heart thumped wildly, but she didn’t dare make any reckless
moves in case she provoked him
Then Ethan spoke as if he had given in, “Don’t move. I’m just going to hold you.”
Olivia was surprised at his request, but she was quite cooperative as she maintained her current posture.
Time seemed to have come to a standstill.
Ethan kept his word. He didn’t do anything else and simply hugged her.
In the past, he could hug her whenever he wanted. But now, he had to make use of another identity and
the effects of certain drugs to achieve this goal.
In the silence of the night, Olivia could only hear Ethan’s irregular heartbeat.
Even her heartbeat was growing restless as well.
He placed his chin on her shoulder. She could sense his heavy breaths.
After about three or four minutes, Olivia asked tentatively, “Are you feeling better now?”
He was exasperated. “How could I feel better?”
Still, he got up as promised and let go of Olivia.
Standing near the bed, he said, “Sorry for being rude tonight.”
Olivia’s clothes were a mess. For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.
“Go back to your room and lock the door. The drug’s effects are quite strong. I’m worried that I won’t be
able to control myself…”
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 …
