Chapter 321

Glancing at Olivia’s expression, Ethan continued, “Do you know about your mother’s illness?”

“Yes, but I don’t intend on donating my bone marrow to her.”

“Wise choice. Personally, I also don’t want you to get involved with her anymore.

“For the past few days, the Carltons put in a lot of effort into finding the perfect bone marrow, but they

failed to do so. You’re the only one they haven’t tested.”

Olivia asked, “So you think the Carltons won’t let me go?”

“They definitely won’t. I know Chris’ personality too well. You might be upset to hear this, but he truly

loves your mother. He will stop at nothing if it means saving your mother.”

Ethan placed his hands on Olivia’s shoulders while speaking earnestly. “Liv, there may be a lot of

misunderstandings between us. I’ve hurt you before, but I sincerely want to protect you now.

“I’ll send more men to look for your father. Just stay here and rest for a while, okay? I’ll come back for

you when I’ve settled everything.”

The sounds of a helicopter could be heard coming from the lawn outside. It sounded urgent.

Olivia gazed at him. “I understand.”

Ethan placed a hand behind her head, planting a kiss on her forehead. “Live, give me some time. I’ll tell

you everything in due

time.

“I promise that we’ll be together like how we were in the beginning. I will give you everything you want.”

For a moment, Olivia didn’t know what to say to annoy him.

Ethan took out two rings from his pocket. They were his and Olivia’s wedding rings.

He held Olivia’s hand before slipping one of the wedding rings onto her finger. The earnest look in his

eyes was the same as it

had been in the past.

Olivia couldn’t understand why a man like Ethan could have a change of heart.

But Connor’s existence was a symbol of his disloyalty.

When the ring slid onto Olivia’s thin finger, it hung loosely at the base.

She had lost a lot of weight, and her fingers had gotten much slimmer as well.

Olivia chuckled. “Look. After getting divorced, even the wedding ring doesn’t fit me anymore.”

The look in Ethan’s eyes flickered. He didn’t get mad. Instead, he carefully took off the ring.

“Liv, rings can be adjusted. Similarly, people can repent after making mistakes. To err is human, after

all.”

He put the ring away. “I’ll put it on for you when we meet next time.”

Ethan kissed the back of her hand. “My precious Mrs. Miller.”

Urgent voices sounded outside. Ethan looked longing at Olivia. “Liv, I have to go.”

In the past, whenever he had to leave, even if it was just for work, Olivia would throw a tantrum in his

arms. Then, she would see him off at the door, watching him leave until he was gone.

But now, she only nodded. Instead, Ethan was the one reluctant to leave. Standing at the door, he

looked quietly at Olivia. There was a displeased look in his eyes. “Aren’t you seeing me off?”

Olivia placed the book on the bedside table before saying lightly, “All good things must come to an end.

Seeing you off will only increase the longing. It won’t solve anything.”

Ethan didn’t say a word. He left with a cold look on his face.

Soon, Olivia heard the sounds of the helicopter taking off. She stood at the floor-to-ceiling window,

watching as the red dot grew smaller in the sky.

She no longer felt longing for him. Instead, she felt more freedom after he left.

There was phone reception on the island, so Olivia could make phone calls.

But the internet was blocked, so she couldn’t go online.

She had asked about it beforehand. Even if there was internet here, this was a deserted island. It

wasn’t even shown on the map. So, she had no idea where this place was.

Even if Olivia were to call someone, she could only tell them that she was on an island. She didn’t

know anything else.

The second day after Ethan left, Olivia called Everly to assure the latter that she was fine. Right after

that, she received a call from an unfamiliar number.

“Olivia, is that you?”

The caller’s voice was stern and mature. It was Chris.
