Chapter 372

Ethan didn’t speak, but his expression said it all. He didn’t want to discuss this subject with Olivia.

“Liv, I have my considerations.” There were things that Ethan couldn’t tell Olivia.

Smiling coldly, Olivia said, “She indirectly killed our baby, pushed me into depression for two years, and

now she’s trying to kill my mother. I’m really curious as to why you’re so lenient with her.”

If he truly loved Marina, why would he go to such lengths to win her favor? Ethan would never have

stooped to doing such things. Olivia was confused.

”

“Some things are not the way you think they are. I’ll tell you everything when the time is right.

It was always about timing with Ethan. Olivia didn’t know when the time would be right. She only knew

that the conflicts she had been forced into had caused her family to be ruined.

“Rest here for a while. I’ll get you some soup.” Ethan hurried to the kitchen. He was intent on avoiding

that subject.

He opened the pot, and the fragrant smell of the soup wafted in the kitchen. He stirred the soup gently

with a wooden ladle.

Ethan’s phone vibrated, and he picked it up. It was a call from Brent.

“Mr. Miller, I’ve looked into it. Mrs. Miller did save Avery Fordham before. But all she did was bring him

to the emergency room. She left after paying the bill. There was no other interaction

between them.”

A stormy expression appeared on Ethan’s face. He asked in an irritated tone, “What about Avery’s side

of things?”

“I’m not so sure right now, but it doesn’t seem like he’s here on business. This might be a personal trip.

I was also able to get my hands on his medical report.”

“What illness does he have?”

Brent said slowly, “Kidney failure.”

“Understood. Get someone to keep an eye on him.”

“Yes, sir.”

“And…”

Ethan suddenly lowered his voice and glanced at the door. He saw that Olivia was heading upstairs

and asked, “How’s the investigation on Toxic Hive going?”

“There haven’t been any developments yet. It seems like someone is protecting them. I haven’t been

able to find anything.”

“Keep the investigation going.”

“Understood.”

Ethan hung up, thinking about the woman he grabbed that night. He was almost entirely sure

that she was Leia.

He felt conflicted. The sister he missed for so many years was still alive. He should be overjoyed.

However, not only did Leia join a terrorist organization and kill innocent people, but the most important

thing was that she hurt the woman he loved.

Ethan didn’t know how he would feel when he faced his sister.

He was deep in thought and accidentally spilled some of the scalding hot soup on his hand. He

immediately came back to his senses.

While waiting for the soup to cool down, Ethan called Kelvin. “How’s the investigation at the hospital?”

“Ms. Carlton was the only one that went into Mrs. Carlton’s ward other than the usual caregiver and

medical staff. There aren’t any cameras in the ward, so no one knows what happened in there.”

“Did they perform any other checks? Could someone have used drugs? How else could her condition

worsen so abruptly?”

“Currently, Mrs. Carlton has been resuscitated and sent to the ICU for observation. A blood test was

done. There are no issues.”

Hanging up, Ethan played with the ladle. His expression grew gloomier.

Toxic Hive was like its name suggested. They were insects that would infiltrate everywhere. Ethan had

no idea who they had bribed to provide them protection. Even his men were unable to uncover any

leads.

Toxic Hive was second to none when it came to drugs.

Ethan thought about it for a while and decided to call Marina.

On the other end of the phone, Marina didn’t seem surprised. Instead, she was a little distracted.

“Hi, Ethan.” Marina sounded tired.

“We haven’t eaten together for some time Why don’t we meet up tonight?” Ethan asked

In the past, Marina would be delighted to receive an invitation from Ethan. But she was

reluctant this time.

“M Ms. Parker is in the ICU. I need to be at the hospital in case anything happens”

Ethan grabbed the ladle tightly. There was a hint of determination on his face.

“Other than having dinner, I also want to talk to you about our marriage.

“M-Marriage?” Marina was so happy she could faint.

“The incident during the engagement party became public knowledge Miller Group’s stocks have

become unstable because of it. That’s why I want to discuss our marriage with you.”

Ethan knew that their marriage was the one thing Marina cared about the most. It was the best bait to

lure her out.

“Okay, I’ll be there.”
