Chapter 331
Even After Death
Olivia lazed around on the island for a few days. She did nothing but sleep and eat the whole time. The
quality of her life improved immensely.
She walked around the beach barefooted while carrying a bucket in hand. She would grab any sand
crabs she saw with tongs.
Snowball wanted to help her, but the sand was too hot for her, so she moved away.
Olivia went to the livestock area after she had caught quite a few sand crabs. She poured the sand
carbs out, which caused the farm animals to chase after them.
Her mood improved as she looked at the lively animals. Then, she went back to her room to shower in
preparation for dinner.
She happened to get a call from Colin.
âOlivia, how have you been?â
âIâve been pretty well. Iâve been eating, drinking, and sleeping well. I donât have to worry about getting
kidnapped either.â
âThatâs great. I just wanted to inform you that your father has arrived at the destination safely. The
doctors on the island have just examined him. His body is the same as usual.â
Colinâs words alleviated Oliviaâs worries. She quickly asked, âColin, have you finalized the
arrangements with Leo?â
âYes. Heâll arrive on the island soon. But Mr. Fordham needs to undergo some preparations before the
surgery. Itâll be about two weeks before he can go through with it.â
Oliviaâs mood improved with the positive responses. âThis is a very risky operation. Iâd like to be by my
fatherâs side for it.â
At the moment, uncovering the truth wasnât the most important thing in Oliviaâs mind. She was just
concerned that there wouldnât be anyone by Jeffâs side during the operation.
âOlivia, I tried to have someone trace your location through your signal. It didnât work. The source of
your signal has been deliberately concealed. I canât pinpoint your location.â
âItâs no use. Iâm on an uncharted island.â
âDonât worry, Olivia. Iâll go take care of Mr. Fordham personally in a few days. Iâll do my best to keep
him so..
âThanks, Colin.â
âDonât be a stranger to me, Olivia. Iâve been feeling guilty for failing to bring you away. Donât be afraid.
Iâll not let him catch you next time.â
Colin continued gently, âYou must take good care of yourself, Olivia. Remember to take the pills I gave
you on time. As long as you donât give up hope, the sun will always rise again.â
Olivia looked at the setting sun after she hung up. Colinâs words encouraged her, helping her refocus
on her mental well- being that she had once cast aside.
She started to believe that things would be better.
She still wanted to be by her fatherâs side the most.
After she had dinner, she called Ethan. They hadnât spoken to each other since he left. If the staff
werenât caring for her every need, she would start to think she had been abandoned on this deserted
island.
The call went through. Ethenâs deep voice sounded from the other end. âHello?â
In the past, Oliviaâs heart would skip a beat whenever she heard his voice. But now, there was only
calm.
Olivia asked, âHow long do you plan to keep me prisoner?â
Ethan frowned at her choice of words. âArenât you having fun on the island?â
He had designed the island according to her preferences. He was sure no matter how picky she was,
he wouldnât be dule in find a problem with it
Olivia replied honestly, âThe island is great. I even have the urge to stay here for the rest of my life but i
want to go back for + bit Iâm worried about my fatherâ
She pleaded softly, âEthan, please let me go back for a while, okay?â
Ethan rubbed his forehead in exasperation. He couldnât refuse her request *Iâll send someone to pick
you up in a few daysâ
