Chapter 417
Even After Death
The icy voice brought Olivia back to her senses like a bucket of cold water. She looked toward Ethan
with Leiaâs blood on her face.
Ethan had never seen Olivia like this before. What shocked him more was that she already knew the
truth.
Olivia didnât evade Ethanâs gaze. Smiling, she said, âYouâre just in time, Ethan.â
âYou already knew, Liv?â
âAre you surprised? I was already carrying out my plan as you were thinking of ways to comfort me. I
thought you were going to give me an explanation. Iâve caught the one responsible.â
Olivia looked at Ethan coldly. âWill you do it? Or do I have to do it myself?â
There were five cuts on Leiaâs body. Her blood was dripping down into the ocean, and she looked very
frail.
âLiv, please calm down. We can talk about this.â
âCalm down?â
Olivia smirked, saying, âYou expect me to just calm down after all Iâve been through for the past two
years? My family is in ruins because of you two. My dad is as good as dead. I almost died in her hands
several times. Did you even spare me a thought?â
âLiv, I know itâs all Leiaâs fault. I understand that you hate her and me. I can give you my life. Can you
spare her in exchange for my life? Please donât hurt her. Sheâs the only sister Iâve got.â
Biting her lip, Olivia said, âThe only sister youâve got? I should never have believed you. Ethan, Iâll
never let you off or her. You two owe me. Iâll get back whatâs mine a thousandfold, Leia dies today.â
Kelvin, Brent, and the others arrived at the scene.
âMrs. Miller, donât be rash.â
âThatâs right. Letâs all just sit down and talk things through.â
âThereâs nothing more to talk about. She dies today. Iâve had enough, Ethan,â Olivia said as she swung
her dagger at the rope holding Leia.
The sharks had already gathered below. If Leia fell into the ocean, her fate would be sealed.
A gunshot sounded.
Olivia felt her wrist go numb and saw blood splattering before her. The dagger fell to the floor by her
foot. The gunshot resonated in her ears, and her mind was dazed.
She only realized what had happened after a few seconds. She looked at the man holding the gun at
her in disbelief. Ethan shot her.
Olivia didnât feel much pain in her wrist. She felt like her chest was shot instead. She felt like there was
a hole in her chest as the wind blew on her.
Ethan ran toward Olivia. Her bodyguard saw this, and one of them grabbed her other hand. âMs.
Fordham, we have to go.â
Olivia was dumbstruck. The image of Ethan shooting her kept replaying in her head. He had made his
choice between her and Leia.
He picked Leia over her even though she was once his wife, bore his child, and they were once in love.
None of those could compare to the bond of a blood sibling.
âMrs. Miller, please donât run.â Kelvin and the others chased after her.
The bodyguards brought Olivia to a speedboat that was prepared in advance. No one dared to fire at
the boat because Olivia was onboard.
One of her bodyguards pressed a towel against her gunshot wound. He looked at her apologetically
and said, âIâm sorry, Ms. Fordham.â
It happened too quickly. No one expected Ethan to shoot Olivia.
It was the man she once loved deeply. She started to cry as blood was streaming out of her wound.
