Chapter 1071
Even After Death
Olivia could still remember the first time she met Marina.
Marina had been standing next to Ethan with a protruding belly, wearing a triumphant expression.
Olivia could still remember what Marina said before pushing her off the cruise.
âSay, will he save you or save me?â
On top of that, the memory of herself resorting to pawning her wedding ring while Marina was holding
her head high was still vivid in her head.
Olivia had imagined herself meeting Marina again countless times, but none of it turned out this way.
âMiss! Oh dear, why did it turn out like this? Iâll call the ambulance!â The butler became frantic.
Judging from the amount of blood bled, Olivia could tell that it happened only a moment ago.
She quickly pressed the wound with a cloth to stop the bleeding. âDonât worry, she hasnât bled much.
Itâs not a deep wound. Her life isnât in danger.â
âWho are you? Who told you to come here? Get away from me!â Marina struggled to break free from
Olivia.
She didnât seem to be in her right state of mind.
While Olivia was defending against Marinaâs protest, her face was stained with blood.
Olivia slapped her right in the face without hesitation.
âCalm down already!â said Olivia coldly.
Marina was stunned, not expecting that from a stranger.
In fact, that was nothing considering that Olivia had been slapped multiple times. She was also forced
to kneel on her knees and almost had her face ruined!
Marina stopped her antics, and the butler said, âMs. Carlton, Calm down. Sheâs the doctor whoâs going
to treat your legs. Why did you do such a silly thing?
Imagine how sad Mr.
Carlton Senior would be when he finds out about this.â
The mention of Otto rendered Marina silent. After all, the only person who treated her genuinely well
was him.
Even after learning that she wasnât his biological granddaughter, he didnât drive her out of the family.
He even settled her down so that she could spend the rest of her life without worries.
Ottoâs condition was getting worse. His time was running out.
The fact that Marina attempted suicide would be too much for him to take in. It might cost him his life
too!
Olviia calmly treated Marinaâs wound while informing the butler to prepare some stuff.
Anxious, Fabian said, âYou must save my sister. It doesnât matter how much the fee is.â
He seemed to be worried sick like a good brother would.
Still, the hatred in Marinaâs gaze didnât go unnoticed by Olivia.
âDonât worry. This is my job,â replied Olivia indifferently.
She stitched the wound up neatly. The needle poked into Marinaâs skin without the use of anesthesia.
Although Marina wished to die, she failed to do so.
The stitching process hurt so much that it made her grit her teeth.
âDoes it hurt?â Olivia asked.
âOf course, it does. Wonât it hurt if I were to poke you with a needle?â
Marina had been living a tough life these years, but her temper was as vile as ever.
Lowering her head, Olivia sneered. She thought, âHow could this hurt? When I was injured that winter, I
dragged myself to the hospital for my stitches. That hurt like hell.â
Soon, Marinaâs wound was treated.
Olivia looked at Marinaâs drenched robe. âGet something dry for her to change into.â
âOkay. The maids can do it. You must be tired from traveling so far. You can get some rest outside. Iâll
tell you her condition in the meantime.â
Olivia wondered if Fabian was afraid of her seeing something. He asked her to leave the room as soon
as she was done treating Marinaâs wound.
âOkay.â Olivia was smart enough to sense that something was off. She stood up immediately. âKeep an
eye on her. I can help out a living person but not a corpse.â
Before she left the room, she saw a discarded condom in the trash bin from the corner of her eyes.
She thought, âBingo. Iâm happy to learn that youâre having it tough right now, Marina Carlton.â
