Chapter 405

Ethan clearly sensed Olivia’s aloof attitude.

Had it been before, he would’ve forcefully taken her home.

However, he couldn’t bring himself to give her the cold shoulder now after what had happened-let alone

say hurtful words.

Guilt was devouring him.

“Liv, I know that many things have happened, and you’re upset about them. Don’t worry, your father as

soon as possible. He’ll be fine.”

I’ll save

Olivia, who was facing her back at him, coldly responded, “What’s the use of that? If we can’t find the

mastermind, Dad might be harmed once more even after we save him. You promised to give me an

answer to everything. When are you going to do that?”

He would’ve been able to answer that question with confidence in the past, but not now.

How could he tell Olivia that the culprit was his very own sister?

That was his biological sister, whom he had wrapped up in cotton wool since childhood.

Ethan had searched for Leia for a long time. It was a tough journey before they reunited.

He would give Olivia an answer to everything, but that would be at least after he got to the bottom of

everything.

Licking his chapped lips, he said in a low voice, “Liv, this matter ain’t as simple as you think. Since I’ve

promised you an answer to everything, I’ll find out the truth slowly. Just relax and get some rest at

home.”

She let out a self-mocking smirk. “I’ll keep my mother company these few days. I won’t go anywhere

else.”

Her firm stance left him with no choice. He had a lot of things to settle, so he couldn’t stay at the

hospital with her.

He signed helplessly. Both of them were not in the state of mind to continue this discussion further.

“You can stay. I’ll ask Kelvin to stay as well. He can help you out if anything happens.”

Ethan was keeping an eye on her under the name of protection.

“Fine.” Olivia didn’t want to waste her time exposing him.

Sensing that she didn’t want to speak to him, he excused himself and left the place. “I have to handle

some matters. I’ll see you later. I’ll inform Kelvin to handle your meals. Don’t push yourself too hard.”

It had been a long time since Ethan last treated Olivia so gently.

Unfortunately, his gentle acts gave her more reasons to resent him now.

Needless to say, it wasn’t the time to turn against him.

After all, she was the only person in the Fordham family. If she provoked him, he might confine her

for real.

There were a lot of things she needed to do. Therefore, she must take advantage of the free time given

by the guilty man.

Ethan could vaguely notice that Olivia was in low spirits, and he blamed it on the matters that had

happened recently. It was natural for her to be upset over them.

Furthermore, he was too busy and didn’t have time to spare.

He hopped into the car with hurried steps. Once inside, he reclined in the back seat exhaustedly.

Seeing him raise his head, Brent asked, “How’s Mrs. Miller doing?”

“She’s in low spirits. Ms. Parker doesn’t have much time left.” Ethan kneaded his eyebrows. “Keep an

eye on Avery. Don’t let him come close to Liv.”

Although Olivia and Ethan were divorced, someone might still set her up.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Miller. I’ve found out that Avery will be returning to his country tomorrow. He won’t be

able to meet her. He must’ve done that yesterday to repay her favor for saving him.”

“Don’t forget that he’s still single.” Ethan was alert.

It pained Brent to see those dark circles beneath Ethan’s eyes.

Brent turned the steering wheel and glanced at him through the rearview mirror.

Brent couldn’t help but ask, “Are you really not going to tell Mrs. Miller about Ms. Miller?”
