Chapter 238
Even After Death
As for their relationship, Ethan didnât care. He allowed the others to fill in the spaces.
This was the backing force he spoke of.
Olivia smiled bitterly. If she couldnât remember what he had done to her in the past, she might have
been a little touched. But those harmful acts were like continuous slashes on her body. Even now, her
injuries hadnât healed.
She had already committed the hurt to memory. She wouldnât make the same mistake again.
Olivia continued working. She had learned artistic skills when she was young, and Jeff had also hired a
finance instructor to teach her the relevant knowledge.
After spending so much time with Ethan, she had picked up some things as well. A project worth tens
of millions of dollars was just right for her to practice with.
In the CEOâs office, Ethan rolled up the end of his tie. Once again, he thought about Olivia asking for a
kiss as she clung to him.
He swallowed without realizing it. He hadnât touched her in two years, but that brief interaction
managed to get his desires burning again.
âHave you still not found out the reason she joined Miller Group?â
Brent was standing at the side respectfully. âMrs. Miller hasnât done anything out of the ordinary in her
department. She did give some presents to some secretaries, though.â
âPresents?â
Brent showed Ethan a tie clip. âThis is Williamâs.â
Ethan glanced at the logo. It was a well-known brand, and it was quite pricey.
âSheâs quite generous.â
âPerhaps she thought that sheâd be working as a secretary as well. Itâs normal to s to establish
connections.â
Ethanâs gaze fell upon the decoration on the tie clip. âTake it apart,â he ordered.
Brent didnât ask any questions and promptly disassembled it.
From under the tiny cover, a micro tracker fell onto the desk.
As Brent looked at the micro tracker on the desk, his face turned pale.
âH-How could this be? What is Mrs. Miller trying to do?â
Picking up the tracker, Ethan stuffed it back into the clip. âGive it back to William. Donât tell anyone
about this.â
âUnderstood, Mr. Miller.â
Ethan fiddled with his tie clip. Ever since Olivia requested to be his assistant, he had been suspecting
her.
Judging by Oliviaâs personality, she would try to get as far away from him as possible. It didnât make
sense for her to stay by his side.
Unless she was trying to get something from him.
Was it money?
She could donate 500 million dollars without batting an eye. She obviously didnât lack money.
The only other reason would be Jeff.
He remembered her hesitant behavior the other day. âDid she figure something out?â he wondered.
Noticing that Ethan had stayed silent, Brent couldnât see through Ethanâs thoughts either. He asked
carefully, âSo, about Mrs.
Millerâ¦â
âDonât do anything yet, in case sheâs alerted. Letâs see what sheâs trying to achieve here.â
Ethan tapped his fingers on the desk, thinking about Oliviaâs previous two visits.
âGet someone to check my office later. If she can plant trackers on other people, she might do it to me
too.â
âUnderstood, Mr. Miller.â
Lowering his eyes, Ethan looked at the space under the desk. He could still see her pitiful look as she
begged him for help.
Ethan didnât expect the investigation to be so fruitful.
Sure enough, there were a few micro cameras hidden in his office.
Brentâs expression changed. âMr. Miller, thisâ¦â
âItâs not Oliviaâs doing.â
She had only visited the office recently, but those micro cameras were hidden in secret corners of the
office.
Olivia couldnât have managed to do that.
Brent was furious. âWho could be so bold that they would plant these things in your office, Mr. Miller?â
âCheck the model number.â
âThis model can be on standby for up to a year. A third of the battery has been depleted.â
This meant that the cameras had been planted for at least seven months,
Ethanâs information had already been exposed seven months ago, or even earlier than that.
âThis may be the work of your business rivals, Mr. Miller. Nothing has gone wrong with all our projects
within the past year. If not for business advantages, what are the cameras for?â
âGo and find out who has entered my office in the past year.â
âIâm on it. We should be able to backtrack and figure out who it is.â
âItâs too late.â Ethan sneered. âIf they could plant cameras in my office, they mustâve realized it by now.
Still â¦â
