Chapter 714
Even After Death
Ethan immediately froze, and color drained from Janiceâs face.
Even Haroid couldnât believe his ears. âNonsense! Oliviaâs been healthy all the while. Why would she
suddenly have stomach cancer?â
Keith removed Ethanâs hands from Olivia. Anger flared in his eyes as he explained, âWhen you were
fighting because of a divorce two years ago, she already had Stage Three cancer. Look at her. Iâm afraid
it has already advanced to the last stage.â
Those last words pulled Ethan back into his senses.
Olivia was exhausted from coughing up blood and Ethan quickly carried her up. Without a care in the
world, he ran outside.
âLiv, youâre gonna be fine. Iâll take you to the hospital right now. Youâll be fine,â he said.
But unbeknownst to them, it was already raining.
Raindrops trickled on Oliviaâs face.
She raised her head weakly and looked at the glisten in Ethanâs eyes. She wondered if the water
droplets were tears or raindrops.
But it seemed like nothing mattered anymore. Olivia could feel something invisible sucking her soul
away.
She had so many things to say, and it suffocated her chest.
Ethan was in such a hurry that he almost tripped onto the ground. Anyone could tell how anxious he was
because of this.
Chrisâ words kept replaying in Ethanâs head, âMr. Miller, M1 doesnât have much effect on ordinary people.
Old people, kids, and pregnant women, especially cancer patients, are not allowed to take them.â
âWhat happens if they take it?â he had asked.
âM1 can erase a personâs memories, as well as shut their immune system down. If a cancer patientâs
immune system is compromised, the cancer cells canât be killed and will spread very quickly. It might
even spread within their whole body.
âItâll be a disastrous situation for the patient.â
Never in Ethanâs wildest imagination had he thought that Olivia was suffering from such an illness. It was
no wonder she didnât have any side effects other than gastric pain after regaining her consciousness.
Etahn had hurt her sore spot, and he rued his decision.
Like a frantic child, he kept apologizing to Olivia, âLiv, Iâm sorry. I didnât want it to turn out this way. I didnât
know.â
Warm tears fell onto Oliviaâs face.
Although Olivia had a lot of questions in her head, she calmed down after realizing that she was reaching
the end of her life.
Staring at the raining sky, she softly said, âEthan, Iâm so tired â¦â
Be it love, resentment or memories, she didnât want to question them anymore. She simply felt that
someone was sucking her dry, as though her soul was slowly leaving her body.
âLiv, I will never let you leave my side.â Ethan placed a bloody Olivia into the passenger seat. âIâll take
you
to the hospital right now.â
Oliviaâs face was pallid as she caressed Ethanâs face. âIf I canât live long, just let me go.â
âDonât say such words. Youâll be fine,â Ethan said.
But Oliviaâs fingers slowly slid down his cheek, and she gradually shut her eyes.
She was so tired.
She needed to rest.
Before losing consciousness, Olivia could hear Ethanâs anguished scream. But that had nothing to do
with her anymore.
Olivia didnât have any objective in her life anyway. The only thing that comforted her was the fact that she
had had a sweet family and a loving husband.
But in the end, it all turned out to be lies. Her wonderful dream was shattered.
So what reason did she have to go on living her life?
