Chapter 111
Even After Death
Olivia became agitated upon hearing Everlyâs words.
An ominous glint danced in Oliviaâs eyes as she said aloud, âConnor is innocent. But my dead child is
innocent, too! The person who shouldâve died is him!â
She rubbed her throbbing chest with a contorted expression. âIf he hadnât been born, my child wouldnât
have died.â
âSilly girl! Why do you have such extreme thoughts? Liv, listen to me, I am a realist, but I do believe in
fate.
âEverything thatâs happening is destined to be. Your baby has become an angel sooner than most
people.
âIf you look into the sky, he might be watching you. He wants you to live a good life, not waste your time
doing the things you will regret later on.
âThink about the hardships youâve gone through. I bet you canât bring yourself to see others experience
the same thing, do you?â Everly asked.
Olivia looked back at Everly icily. âDo you know what I went through the past year?
âWhy does my family have to be ruined? Marina is living happily with her family, and Ethan can do
anything he wants!
âAll I want is to have them have a taste of their medicine tenfold.â
âLiv.â Everly gazed at her concernedly.
Olivia suddenly broke into a smile. âDonât give me that look. I wonât do anything until Dad regains his
consciousness.â
âLiv, I know that Iâm not in a position to say anything because I didnât experience the same situation you
did.
âAll I wish for is for you to be healthy. Keep your cool,â Everly said.
âDonât worry. I am as calm as ever right now.â
Everly was in a distress. She didnât know what was running in Oliviaâs mind, but she couldnât do
anything about it either.
When she left, she heard Olivia humming a lullaby.
When Olivia was pregnant, she bought a lot of toys and downloaded lullabies on her playlist.
At that time, Everly teased, âYour baby isnât out yet, and you already learned so many lullabies. Be
careful not to fall asleep.â
Olivia rubbed her belly with a gentle smile. âItâll be too late to learn it after the baby is born. Iâll be a total
mess.
âItâs my first time becoming a mother. Of course, I should be prepared. He can actually feel it. Heâs mild
whenever I hum the songs.
âHe doesnât kick me either. I think heâs going to be a sweet boy that cares for his mother.â
Everly chuckled. âYouâre pretty. Itâs fine as long as he looks like you or his father, Iâm looking forward to
meeting him already.
â
Olivia anticipated the day that had never come.
Little did she know that Ethan, who hadnât bothered her for days, was on the other side of the globe.
He was in a lifeâthreatening situation.
A masked Ethan leaped off the bridge and a rain of bullets showered from the bridge.
Red smeared across the surface of the water.
âHe wonât be able to get far. After him!â instructed one of the pursuers.
Ethan swam out of the river, covering the wound on his right arm while reaching the shore,
A cube box was in his tight grasp. He expressed relief, muttering, âJethro, are you watching over me?
See. I got it back for you.
