Chapter 353
Even After Death
Olivia dreamt about the time when Ethan still pampered her. Back then, he built a manor of roses for
her just because she told him roses were pretty.
There were dozens of roses inside the estate, each with different shapes and colors. They were
carefully tended by gardeners.
It took one whole year for the garden to take shape. It was ready on the day of her birthday. Ethan told
her he was busy that day and couldnât have dinner with her.
She was disappointed and ended the call with a crestfallen expression, but she didnât blame
him.
Ethan was the head of the Miller family, and Miller Group had a lot of businesses that he needed to
tend to. It was only natural that he was so busy.
She thought it wasnât a big deal that he forgot about her birthday. There was always the next
one. She was still young and had plenty of birthdays to look forward to.
She baked a cake for herself that afternoon. But she messed up several times because she was
in a bad mood.
She didnât care about the quality of the cake she made. She put some cream on one of the failed ones
and promised to make Ethan eat it when he came home.
Olivia had never felt like a day was so long. Ethan never came back, but Kelvin did. He told her that he
was bringing her somewhere.
Olivia was taken to a strange place in a daze with her eyes blindfolded. She wondered what Ethan was
up to. She caught the scent of flowers before she took off the blindfold. The smell
ent from the delicate fragrance of gardenia flowers. It was a richer scent.
Wa
Someone took off her blindfold. Opening her eyes, she saw Ethan in a suit, smiling at her.
She nudged him, saying, âDidnât you say you couldnât make it backâ¦â
Her voice was stuck in her throat as she realized they were in a sea of roses. There were
colorful flowers in full bloom wherever she looked. She was stunned by the sight.
âY-You⦠Youâ¦â
Olivia was at a loss for words. She couldnât even complete a sentence.
Ethan hugged her from behind and asked, âDo you like it? I built this garden of roses just for
you.â
Olivia felt like she finally understood why people said that if you were with the right person,
every day would has Valentineâs Day
âYou big herâ
The flowers looked stating under the glow of the setting mm Olivia tiptoed and kissed him on the lips
She whispered, âI love it
thenâs smile looked warm than al sander the evening sun. He said, âHappy birthday, Lav
He might be cold by name, and hemaght not know how to express his love with words, but he always
gave her the best of everything. He would remember her preferences and keep her every
word in mind
In the past two years, Olivia often had nightmares. She rarely ever had sweet dreams anymore.
The Ethan in her dream was caring and courteous. It was the side of him that she loved deeply. She
could reveal her best self to him without any reservations.
Olivia was injected with drugs last night, so her mind was still fuzzy. She thought she was still in the
manor of roses
Ethanâs trembling hands were wrapped around Olivaâs waist. She was wearing silk pajamas, which felt
so soft and smooth
He leaned in to kiss Olivia. It felt exactly like the sensation he felt in his dream. Ethan was overjoyed,
and his heartbeat accelerated quickly
Ethan was afraid that Olivia would wake up. Just then, she grabbed his collar and said, âYou
avenât told me if youâve fallen for another woman out there.â
Ethan hugged her tightly like he used to and whispered, âThere is no other woman. Itâs always
been just youâ
every day would be Valentineâs Day.
âYou big liar.â
The flowers looked stunning under the glow of the setting sun. Olivia tiptoed and kissed him on the lips.
She whispered, âI love it.â
Ethanâs smile looked warmer than usual under the evening sun. He said, âHappy birthday, Liv.
He might be cold by nature, and he might not know how to express his love with words, but he always
gave her the best of everything. He would remember her preferences and keep her every word in mind.
