Chapter 204
Even After Death
Chloe was crying as she told her story.
She described the missed opportunities and misunderstandings between her and Chris as incredibly
sad and painful.
She didnât know how to react when she heard what Olivia said.
There were still tears in her eyes. She looked comical as she tried to keep the tears from falling.
It was as if she was wondering why Olivia didnât feel any compassion for her. She had such a sad life.
She began to wonder if Olivia was truly heartless.
âMrs. Carlton, losing Chris might have been the worst thing that ever happened to you. But do you
know what it means to have a family destroyed?
âDo you know how helpless I felt when my family left me one by one?
âDo you know how much pain I felt when I went from being a princess to a nobody that anyone could
spit on?â
Olivia smirked and said, âIn your world, a mosquito sting requires medical attention.
âHow would you ever understand how I feel? I have to try my best just to stay alive.â
Olivia was envious of her mother.
Chloe was the kind of person who only lived for herself. Nothing was more important than her feelings.
Not even Chris, who had always loved her. Not even her own daughter, who had been chasing after
her and begging for the smallest bit of attention.
All these can be sacrificed for the sake of her pursuit of love.
Chloe didnât understand what Olivia was thinking. She thought Olivia would understand her after
knowing her story.
She didnât expect her to be so emotionless.
Chloe felt defeated. But she remembered that Olivia had always obeyed her as a child, so she had one
last option.
âLiv, I know you have suffered these years. I wasnât with you then. But now Iâm back. Iâll never let
anyone hurt you again.â
Olivia met Chloeâs gaze. She hesitated slightly for an instant when she saw the sincerity in her eyes.
But Chloe then said, âIâve been there since Marina was a child. She is a very outstanding woman.
âI think she suits Ethan well. Can you please listen to me and let her have Ethan?â
Olivia was dumbfounded, but Chloe had more to say.
Chloe noticed that Olivia was silent.
She continued, âItâs not that I love her more. The thing is, youâre already divorced from Ethan.
âIf you continue to cling to him, your reputation will be ruined.
âAnother thing is, the two of them already had a child together. Can you not break them up for Connorâs
sake?â
Olivia had always had this feeling that she was adopted when she was younger.
She started to feel like that again. She wondered how Chloe was able to utter those words.
She claimed not to love Marina more. Yet, every word she said was in Marinaâs interest.
Olivia looked at her and said with amusement, âHave you ever thought about this?
âMarina is the third wheel in this relationship. And Ethan is the one clinging on to me, not the other way
around.
âIâll be thankful if you can convince him to stay away.â
Chloe was taken aback. Her brows began to furrow. She had a look of disbelief.
âLiv, I know you might have a big misunderstanding with me. But please do not take your anger out on
Marina.â
Olivia was shocked. Chloe had suddenly knelt down while she was talking.
Tears flowed from Chloeâs eyes. She said in a sad tone, âIâll use the rest of my life to make up for the
sufferings I caused you.
My only request is that you let Marina off the hook. Please just let her and Ethan be.â
Oliviaâs condition had stabilized. But she felt her blood boil when she heard Chloeâs words.
She began to see red.
There were so many things wrong with what Chloe said. But Olivia couldnât form any words in her
mouth.
She was so angry her entire body was shaking.
The door opened with a bang. A group of people were standing at the door.
