Chapter 426
Even After Death
Ethan wasnât just putting up a show. He did feel bad. That was why he tried his best to assist with Jeffâs
recovery.
Ethan had never taken care of anyone like this before, but he was doing his best to take care of Jeff.
He worked from home for an entire week and spent most of the time caring for Jeff.
Jeffâs condition improved significantly.
He was barely able to speak in the beginning, but then he became able to speak clearly and
communicate properly, albeit slowly.
His face also looked fuller than before, and his complexion was significantly better.
Jeff held Ethanâs hand and said, âEthan, donât spend all your time with me. You have to pay attention to
Olivia, too. Donât neglect her.â
âDonât worry, dad. I wonât neglect either of you. I take care of you and Liv.â
Olivia felt disgusted whenever she heard him say things like that.
Ethan would ignore her expressions and have the medical experts treat Oliviaâs hand daily after he
tended to Jeff.
During the treatment, Olivia would space out and look out the window. She was like a soulless doll
that allowed the doctor to do whatever he needed.
Be it acupuncture treatment or applying medicine, she didnât care.
Ethan was an extremely obsessive person. The peacefulness they had at the moment was only on the
surface.
Olivia could already predict that when Leia stirred up trouble, sheâd be the one to get it.
Ethan had her trapped because he had Jeff wrapped around his little finger. Olivia had no choice but
to stay.
She was worried about Avery, to whom she promised a kidney. She wondered if he was okay.
Olivia sat on the bedside, her feet dangling in the air after the doctor left. Ethan kneeled down and
helped her put on her slippers.
Ethan casually said, âThe doctors said he is recovering quickly. Heâll be back to his old self in about a
year.â
Olivia didnât respond, but Ethan continued, âIâve already restructured the company. After the paperwork
is done, you can go to work if youâre bored.
âAll the people that used to work there are back. I told dad about this, and he was quite pleased.â
Emotions flashed in Oliviaâs eyes. Looking at Ethan coldly, she said with a mocking smile, âDid you tell
him how the company went bankrupt?â
Ethan was at a loss for words.
âDo you think you can make me happy by doing these things?
âYour sister still has Jodie and her childâs blood on her hands. Jodie was carrying a Fordham baby!â
Ethanâs face paled. He reached out and held Oliviaâs arm.
His voice quivered as he said, âLiv, I know many things she did cannot be undone. Even if you kill Leia
now, you wouldnât be able to bring Jodie back to life.â
âI donât care if Jodie canât come back to life. I just want to kill Leia because I hate her!â
âLiv, I promise Iâll never let Leia hurt you again. She harbors animosity against you because sheâs not in
her right mind.
âIâve already hired psychiatrists to treat her. Isnât making her regret her actions and apologizing to you
better than killing her?â
âApologize?â
Olivia grabbed Ethanâs collar with her good hand and yelled, âWhat would words of apology change?
Can her apology bring Jodie back to life?
âCan it make the pain Iâve been through disappear? Let me tell you this, Ethan. Unless you imprison
me for life, Iâll expose Leiaâs crimes to the public when I get the chance.
âIâll let everyone know that Leia is a murderer and her brother covered up for her!â
Ethan wrapped his arms around Olivia when he saw her enraged expression.
He said, âSorry, Liv. Itâs all my fault. This shouldnât have happened to you.â
âYouâre the one that made me this way! I hate you, Ethan Miller! You and your sister deserve to burn in
hell!â
