Chapter 161

Shaking her head, Olivia continued to beg. “Ethan, I-”

With one hand carrying the child, Ethan wiped her tears with his other hand. “Liv, with every plea you

make, I’ll add one more hole to his body. Do you want to test me?”

Olivia instantly shut up. This perverse man was capable of anything at all.

She could only let her tears fall in silence. Ethan whispered, “The more tears you shed for his sake, the

more he will bleed later.

”

Olivia felt like a heavy boulder was weighing upon her heart. There were thousands of words she

wanted to say, but at that moment, she couldn’t make a sound.

She could only shake her head continuously. Reaching out, Ethan rubbed her eyes. “Be a good girl and

look away. We can return to our normal lives after this.”

Tom, who was being held down, started shouting. Popping out of nowhere, Jerry spoke up as well, “If

you want to kill someone, kill me. Don’t hurt Jack

“He just wants to improve the islanders‘ quality of life. He’s a good man. Even when we took your son

away, we never hurt him. We even gave him milk, which is a luxury to us.”

The boy had also appeared in Olivia’s drawings. Ethan only responded with two words, “Get lost.”

The usually timid boy refused to budge. “If you truly love Ms. Olivia, you won’t hurt her friends. What

you’re doing right now isn’t love; it’s hurt.”

It was only then that Ethan looked at Jerry. An evil smile appeared on his lips.

“Who told you that I love her? The more she suffers, the happier I am. If killing you could break her

heart, that’s the best thing I can wish for.”

Jerry couldn’t understand how such cold words could come out of a human mouth. The man’s cold air

surrounded him, but Jerry retorted bravely.

“If you hate her, you wouldn’t have protected her on instinct. That bullet was traveling at a high speed.

If you hate her, you would’ve simply let her die. Instead, you held her in your arms.”

Jerry exposed Ethan’s mask right away. Even Kelvin gaped in shock.

The meek youth was quite brave, after all. Even Kelvin didn’t dare say such words to Ethan’s face.

“If you truly love a person, it’ll show in your eyes. If you don’t love her, you wouldn’t have humbled

yourself and come looking for Ms. Olivia in person.

“If you don’t love her, you wouldn’t be treating Jack as an enemy. Even a child like me knows that love

should be sincere. Even if you don’t love someone, you shouldn’t hurt them.

“When you’re hurting her, don’t you feel bad as well?”

Ethan let go of Connor and then walked toward Jerry. For a moment, everyone held their breaths,

feeling worried for the youth.

As Ethan neared him, Jerry felt his heart shivering. Still, he didn’t back down.

Ethan had a tall figure, and he was considerably taller than the thin youth. Ethan’s oppressive air

surrounded Jerry.

“Are you telling me what to do?” Ethan sneered. In the next moment, he had already aimed his gun at

Jerry’s head.

“I can let him go, but you’ll have to die in his place.”

Ethan wasn’t too interested in the youth, and he was even a little fond of Jerry. Even adults didn’t dare

meet his gaze and speak such bold words, much less young people.
