Chapter 872
The b*dyguard rushed toward Everly and was able to grab her hand in time.
“Ms. Hilton, please don’t do this. We won’t be able to answer to Mr. Synder if you die.”
“f**k off. I don’t care about that. I’ll never be his match when I’m alive. I’ll definitely haunt him and all of
you after I die.”
Everly’s voice was very loud. It didn’t sound like she was a dying person at all.
I’m even wearing pure white clothes. I’ll turn into the scariest ghost there is. Boy, you better not wake up
at night, or I’ll scare you to death.
The b*dyguard was rendered speechless.
“It was supposed to be a serious situation, but he almost burst out in laughter. Why was Everly so funny
even when she was trying to die?
“Laugh if you want to. You don’t have to hold it in.”
“Stop joking, Ms. Hilton. I will not let you die.”
“Young man, do you know what’s one thing you can never control?”
“Death?”
Everly said with a composed expression, “No. Stocks.”
“Ms. Hilton, that’s not a very funny joke.”
“What about this? Let go of me at the count of three.”
“I’m not going to do that.”
“I have a little bit of cash stowed away in my bag. Let me go, and you have half of it. Use the other half to buy me flowers at my funeral.”
The b*dyguard shook his head.
“I can’t do that, Ms. Hilton. If Mr. Synder finds out that I did that, he will kill me as well.”
“Do you have a big appetite?”
I guess I have a normal appetite?”

“Then I don’t mind. You can be my b*dyguard in the afterlife as well. At least we won’t be lonely that way.”
The group of people that were standing behind them didn’t know how to react to the conversation.
Suddenly, a phone rang, and it ended the conversation.
“Ms. Hilton, it’s your phone.”
“It must be that bastard Henry. I’m not taking that call. Just tell him I’m dead. I’ll talk to him at night.”
“No, no. It’s not Mr. Synder. It’s an unknown caller.”
“Then it must be an insurance salesperson. Tell him it’s too late. I’m dying soon. Insurance won’t be of any
use.
“Why would anyone try to sell you insurance at this hour? It must be someone important.”
Everly yelled at him, “Why would I not record an important person’s number? If it’s not an insurance
salesperson, it must be my landlord asking for rent.
“I won’t be paying rent. I’m dying soon, anyway. Ask him to get the money at my grave.”
The b*dyguard was getting desperate because Everly wasn’t listening to him at all. He had no idea how
Henry was able to keep her under control.
The b*dyguard took the call and put it on speaker.
A woman’s voice rang out. “Eve, are you there?”
Everly’s eyes widened when she heard the voice.
“Say, do you guys think I’m hallucinating? Why am I hearing the voices from the afterlife when I’m still
alive?”
“What afterlife? Eve, where are you? It’s me. I’m not dead,” Olivia said anxiously.
Everly looked at the b*dyguard and asked, “Did you hear what she said?”
The b*dyguard didn’t care who was on the other end of the phone.
He noticed that Everly got very excited, so he quickly answered, “She said she isn’t dead. She asked you where you are. And, what afterlife?”
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 …
