Chapter 870
Kelvin’s smile faded. “Mr. Miller, are you saying he might come after you?”
“He would’ve guessed my identity because of Liv. Do you really think he wouldn’t do anything after I
caused him such great losses? He’ll definitely try to hit me where it hurts”
“Mr. Miller, Mrs. Miller is your Achilles heel. He’ll try to hurt her.”
Ethan had a troubled expression on his face. “Back then, I married her in secret because I was afraid my
identity would be exposed and it’d bring trouble to her doorstep.
“In the end, her identity was still exposed. Those people even hold some power over her. Other than the
enemies she already has, my identity will bring her the most danger.”
“What should we do, Mr. Miller?”
Ethan stood at the edge of the cliff with his hands behind his back. His eyes were filled with
determination as he listened to the waves crashing against the reefs.
“If Liv is my weakness, it would mean I’m still too weak. That’s why those people could threaten me with
her safety. I need to become even more powerful and destroy everyone who would be a threat to her.”
In the distance, everyone was celebrating. The cash they took amounted to several billion dollars. They
were partying while surrounded by mountains of cash. They were making it rain on the island.
A slender person walked over to Ethan. Kelvin and Brent nodded at him as a greeting and walked away.
Ethan turned around and saw Henry’s elegant face.
“You’re giving me over a billion dollars just like that?”
The gentle and noble demeanor was long gone from his face. The top two buttons of his shirt were
unbuttoned, making him seem like more of a player.
“It’s nothing. You really pulled through for me by sending those men at a moment’s notice. I wouldn’t
know what to do without them. Is it okay that they’ve now been exposed?”
“Why would it be a problem? You know how I roll. We’d hit a location and move to another one. We’re just
a tiny operation, unlike your establishment. I haven’t been to your place in a long time.
“Are you planning for world domination? I heard from my brother that you created several powerful
weapons two years ago.”
Henry had been to Ethan’s military base several times. He was awestruck every time. It didn’t look like a
“I’m just trying to protect myself.”

“You’re lucky you’re so good at making money. Or else you wouldn’t be able to keep such a huge
operation afioat.”
Ethan rubbed his temples with a fatigued expression. “These things aside, has your woman settled down
yet? I hope you won’t make the same mistakes I made.”
Henry’s expression changed slightly. “Don’t worry. I’m a very nice person. When it comes to treating
women, I’m usually…”
His phone rang before he could finish his sentence.
“It’s me.”
“It’s Ms. Hilton. She’s about to jump off a building, Mr. Synder.”
“Stop her! I’ll come back right now.”
Henry’s words were proven to be wrong almost as soon as he said them.
He cleared his throat and said, “I have some business to tend to. I’ll be going back. Feel free to call me if
you need anything.
Looking at him leaving frantically, Ethan called out, “Everly is a very headstrong woman. You should tone
down your temper a little, or you’ll regret it when you end up like me.”
“I know that.”
The world was silent once again. Only the sound of nature could be heard.
Ethan lay down on the gra*s and looked up at the starry night sky.
“Liv…” He murmured.
If he could start over, he would never treat her the way he had.
People like him had all the power and authority. They always got their way. But in the end, he couldn’t
even keep the woman he loved by his side.
It was laughable, but such was life. Even if one was rich and powerful, not everything would go one’s way.
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 …
