Chapter 381

Back in the Miller residence, Ethan had a slightly sad look on his face. But when he saw Olivia, his

gaze instantly turned gentle.

“You’re back.”

Olivia couldn’t care about what had happened between them. She walked right up to Ethan.” What

happened to Marina?”

“We’re not sure if she’s alive or not.”

“Is it the work of Toxic Hive?”

“We can’t be sure about that yet. I wanted to meet up to ask her about Ms. Parker. I didn’t expect

something to happen to her even before we managed to meet up. But she probably won’t die.”

Olivia asked, “Why?”

“If they wanted to silence her by killing her, they could just give it a little push after the accident. She

was barely alive then, and she would be considered dead because of an accident.

“They went through the trouble to take her away, so it’s obvious that they’re not after her life.”

Olivia frowned as well. She asked, “Why would they do something to Marina?”

If Olivia was Chloe’s reason for getting harmed, she wondered what Marina’s was.

Ethan rubbed between his eyebrows, exhausted. “There’s one thing we can be sure of. Marina has

something to do with the sudden worsening of Ms. Parker’s condition.

“They were probably worried that Marina might tell me something when we met up. So, they planned

the accident.”

Olivia punched the back of the couch. “Who exactly are they? Why would this benefit them at

all?”

At first, she could pinpoint it on Leia. But now that these things had happened, she couldn’t understand

what they were trying to do at all.

She wondered if their ultimate goal was to get rid of Ethan and everyone close to him.

Ethan had a cold and stern look on his face. “We can’t determine anything at the moment.”

“Does Mr. Carlton know about this?”

“We can’t hide it. The car belonged to the Carltons, and the family already knew about the serious

accident. Mr. Carlton Senior and Mr. Carlton must’ve known about it by now.”

While Ethan was speaking, his phone rang. It was a call from Otto.

Even from a distance away, Olivia could hear Otto’s furious shouts over the phone. Otto ended

the call.

Reaching out, he patted Olivia on the head. “I don’t know what they’re after. But for your

safety, you shouldn’t go out anymore for the time being. I don’t want anything to happen to you.”

With that, he showed Olivia what was left at the scene. Marina was taken away, but the large puddle of

blood on the backseat sent chills down Olivia’s spine.

She could also see some blood on the shattered glass. Marina must be done for this time.

“Don’t worry, it’s safe at home. I’ll ask someone to send the child here. You like Connor a lot, don’t

you?”

Olivia’s eyes lit up. She hadn’t seen the child in a long time. Her eyes were shining. “Really? Can I?”

Ethan felt guilty for a moment when he saw the look in her eyes. Lowering his head, he planted a kiss

between her eyebrows. “Of course. I’ll visit the Carltons to handle the matters related to

Marina.

“Don’t go out for the time being. If you have to, make sure to tell me, alright?”

Olivia replied, “Okay.”

Ethan didn’t ask about Avery. He hastily left the Miller residence.

He had just left when the child arrived. Olivia hadn’t seen Connor in a long time, and he was already

quite adept at walking.

When he followed her on the island, he still waddled like a penguin. When he saw Olivia, he eagerly

wriggled out of Mina’s arms.

“Mommy, Mommy…”

Connor ran up to Olivia. Reaching out, he grabbed Olivia’s legs. His small face was filled with

bliss.

“Connor, I missed you so much.” Holding Connor in her arms, Olivia planted kisses all over

him.

It was only then that Olivia noticed a girl standing next to Mina. The girl was staring at Olivia

with a timid look in her eyes.

Olivia recalled that Marina had given birth to twins.

They were both Ethan’s children. Connor looked very much like their father, but Erina completely

inherited Marina’s looks. Anyone could tell at a glance that this was Marina’s child.

With Connor in her arms, Olivia walked up to the girl and crouched. She extended a hand to the girl

politely. But Erina slapped the back of Olivia’s hand as hard as she could.

The slap resounded clearly in the room.
