Chapter 441
Even After Death
There was a thud on the other end of the line as if something heavy had hit the ground.
Then, Ethanâs voice sounded in disbelief. âWhat did you just say? Pregnant?â
âSheâs taking folic acid. If sheâs not pregnant, why would she take something like that?â
Ethan gritted his teeth. âAre you sure youâre not seeing things?â
âCome on, I know I grew up overseas, but I can still read Arlandian. I know how to read folic acid.â The
call ended at that moment.
Henry frowned. He wondered what had happened with Ethan, for Ethan didnât make sense these days.
Everly dashed toward Olivia, stuffing the folic acid into the latterâs hands. âDonât forget to add this to
your vitamins.â
âThanks.â
âNo need for thanks. You have to give birth to a healthy baby, alright?â Everly patted Olivia on the
shoulder.
Olivia nodded. As if thinking of something, she asked, âNo one saw you, right?â
âDonât worry, Iâm very fast. This packaging is so fancy that dumb man wonât understand what it is at all.â
Olivia didnât have much of an impression about Henry. So, she concluded that he wasnât involved with
Ethan.
It was only then that she sighed in relief.
âGood. Rest well, and donât work too hard.â
âOkay. You should take good care of yourself, too. Iâll visit you when I have days off. Just call me if
something comes up.
âDonât be shy to trouble me; Iâm even worried that youâre not giving me enough trouble.â
Olivia replied, âOkay.â
The two exchanged glances. Olivia tossed the packaging into the trash can. Then, she put the folic acid
into a vitamin bottle before she left.
She felt much better at the thought of her child.
Even the blue sky and white clouds outside looked much nicer.
She even bought some of her favorite cakes and coffee on the streets before going back.
After having a child, she only wanted to share wonderful things with them.
In her heart, she talked to the child.
âBaby, this is my favorite coffee. Do you like it? Also, Iâve been a fan of this mousse cake for a decade.
âWhen youâre born, Iâll buy some for you too. Are you a boy or a girl? Will you have a sweet tooth?â She
would retch a little before this. But after eating the desserts, her condition was relieved.
The child seemed to share the same tastes as her. She didnât feel nauseous at all.
As she thought more about it, she started visualizing a baby with a sweet smile.
Olivia started to see meaning in life.
A cold voice sounded. âWhat are you smiling about? You look quite happy.â
Olivia shivered. She was so absorbed in her fantasies that she didnât notice Ethan nearing her. Unable
to stop smiling in time, she looked at him a little guiltily.
She didnât know why she would feel guilty, either. Ethan was the one who owed her anyway.
âWhat does that have to do with you? Do you have a problem with me smiling?â she retorted as usual.
She wondered if she was seeing things, but she felt as if Ethanâs gaze was questioning her somehow.
âWhere did you go today?â
Olivia was even more furious now. âYou sent bodyguards, didnât you? Just ask them about it instead of
asking me.
âWhy should I tell you, anyway? Do I not have the right to leave the house anymore?
âYou shouldnât have broken my hand. You should break my legs instead so that I will never leave the
house!â
If she said the same things in the past, Ethan would try to coax and soothe her.
But now, the manâs quiet voice rang out. âI quite want to do that.â
Stunned, Olivia looked up at Ethan. She only saw the cold and obsessed look in his eyes.
It felt like a beast that had locked onto its prey. Olivia felt her hair standing on end. Uneasiness began
to spread in her heart.
