Chapter 129
Even After Death
Olivia smiled lightly and said, âI thought he was only a tool for you to exact revenge on me.â
âWhy would you think that?â Ethanâs brows furrowed tightly. He felt like something was off about Olivia
tonight. He wanted to say something. But due to the incident with Marina, he had to go and handle the
mess that she made.
Awaiting him was not only a tearful Marina but also the unbearable Carltons.
He handed Olivia the keycard to the guest room and said, âGo to the room and get changed.â
No one would know she was the one with him in the room if she changed. And as for the rumors online,
Ethan could easily
handle that.
He didnât know what Olivia was planning.
The fireworks show was brought forward by two hours to 8:00 pm to turn peopleâs attention away from
the embarrassing incident.
The fireworks lit up the dark sky. It also attracted a lot of people to look at it.
Many appeared on the snowâcrusted deck to look at the fireworks. The deck quickly became very
lively.
The flashy fireworks allowed the people to temporarily forget about the embarrassing incident. They
were all focused on the beautiful fireworks at the moment.
Their wealth and power did not stop them from enjoying the fleeting beauty of the fireworks.
Calista was crying profusely. Calvin stood beside her and comforted her gently. âYou shouldâve known
better. Youâre an adult.â
Calista was extremely regretful of her actions.
Getting slapped by Marina was the least of her worries. Her biggest worry right now was Oliviaâs
position.
âHow would I know that her man was Mr. Miller? If he knew that I planned everything, not only would I
not get the hospitalâs shares, but the Carlton family would be done for, too!â
âThatâs why I said you shouldâve known better.â
âCalvin!â Calista did not think too much about it. She still thought that Olivia was Ethanâs mistress.
Even if she was just a mistress, she was not just any mistressâshe was Ethanâs mistress.
Everyone knew that Ethan was protective of what was his.
Calista stomped her leg impatiently. Her face was full of worry.
What was she supposed to do now? She would no longer be welcomed in this neighborhood.
At that moment, she saw Olivia walking down the corridor.
She was afraid of Olivia, but she also hated her
She didnât let up with the insults, âDonât get cocky because you became Mr. Millerâs mistress. He is just
toying with you.
âYouâve offended the Caritons Youâll be in for it now.â
She still didnât realise that Olivia was Ethatâs exâwife
Calvin was almost impressed at how dumb she was but it was not bis secret to tell
He stood in front of her and said. âOlivie, donât sulud her. She doesnât think before she speaks.
Olivia nodded at Calvin They had a tail understanding of the sets they kept
She turned her gaze to Calista and said the soft and stationless voice, âSo what if I couldnât choose
how to live? I can still choose how I want to die
Calista was stunned by Oliviaâs icy gaze and was at a loss for words.
She whispered, âCalvin, donât you think sheâs acting weird? What did she mean by that?â
âI donât know. I just donât have a good feeling about this.â
The fireworks show went on. It lit up the night sky until it was as bright as day.
Connor never liked loud places. He was throwing a bit of a tantrum. Marina had someone bring him
back to his room.
It was time for him to sleep.
Mina took him in her arms and prepared to bring him back to his room. But Connor pointed at a cake
nearby and was fussing
over it.
âMaster Connor, youâre not allowed to have desserts at night. Youâll get cavities.â
Connor did not let up. He thought that the cake looked exactly like the ones his mother used to make.
He already didnât get to his mother. Why couldnât he get some of the cake that his mother made?
Mina had no choice but to relent. She placed him on the floor and said, âOne moment, Master Connor.
Iâll get some for you.â
Just as she left, Connor saw Olivia walking up the corridor. His eyes brightened up.
