Chapter 886
The man dragged Olivia away before she could react. He was followed by a group of tall guys.
“Let go of me!” Olivia yelled.
“It’s dangerous here. It’s not safe for a woman like you.”
The man started to run faster. He ran into a server, which caused him to spill alcohol all over the place.
Henry’s b*dyguards caught up. Chaos ensued.
The man had a tight grip on Olivia’s arm. She frowned and said coldly, “I told you to let go!”
“Young lady, I’m doing this for your sake. I’m taking you to someplace safe.”
He brought her to an alley as he was talking. Olivia began to realize how bad her situation was.
The man was very strong. She wouldn’t stand a chance against him.
Her gaze fell on an abandoned shovel in the alley. She picked it up and swung it at the man’s head.
He reacted quickly. He let go of her arm and took a few steps back.
“Don’t be mistaken, miss. I’m just trying to help.”
Olivia said expressionlessly, “Stay away from me.
At that moment, two dark figures rushed out from the trash cans behind Olivia and leaped at her. She
dodged to the side and swung the shovel at one of the men.
Her intuition was right. This man created a commotion on purpose to take her away.
She could sense the air of danger from the man from the beginning. He wasn’t a regular Joe. He was
probably an a*sa*sin.
These people were after her.
“Who are you?”
The men blocked the entrance of the alley. One of them rotated his wrist and said, “Boss, don’t waste time talking to her. Just do it.”
“I’m sorry, Ms Fordham.” The man who brought her to the alley took out a pistol with a silencer attached.
They planned to kill her all along.

The snow was swirling in the air. Olivia looked at the men before her.
“Who sent you?”
“You don’t need to know.”
The man pulled the trigger, and a gunshot sounded.
A loud bang sounded in the quiet alley, and blood splattered. There was a bloody hole in the man’s chest.
He fell to Olivia’s feet.
“Boss’”
The other men were shocked by the sudden turn of events. Who did it?
Two more gunshots sounded. The shooter’s aim was precise. The two other men dropped to the ground.
Olivia noticed a tall man standing in the alley. He was covered in a cloak. She couldn’t tell who he was.
Was he her ally or enemy?
The man took off his hat and revealed the easily recognizable totem mask.
Olivia looked at him in disbelief. “How did you get here, Jack?”
“It’s a long story. Come with me.” Jack left the alley with Olivia in tow.
They hadn’t gotten too far when Olivia turned around and saw Ethan and Henry rushing out of the bar.
Ethan? Why was he here? She could feel the blood freeze up in her veins. When did he return?
Jack led her to a shabby black car. The inconspicuous car drove right past Ethan.
Olivia pressed her face against the window and looked at him in a daze.
If Henry was here to meet Ethan, it would mean he knew she had met with Everly. That would mean that
he knew she was still alive.
Did he fall out of love for her, or was everything under his control?
In the swirling snow, Olivia saw Ethan run to the alley anxiously. “Liv!” Ethan’s heart-wrenching cry echoed in the alley.
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 …
