Chapter 760
Even After Death
Brent said, âI feel like youâve changed, Mr. Miller.â âIn the past, I always thought that my arrangements
were the best decisions for her.
But in reality, Iâve hurt her time and again.
Moreover, itâs not a bad thing for Liv to fake her death.
âShe can fool me and also her enemy, so this can indeed be the safest route for her.
She doesnât have to constantly worry about being assassinated.â Brent said, âSo, Mr. Miller, other than
putting on this act to deceive Mrs. Miller, youâre also trying to fool the enemy.â âOnly then can we have
more time to investigate.
This is the time when that person will let down their guard.
But before that, I have something to do.â âWhat is it?â âI have to clear some obstacles.â News of Olivia
dying from her incurable disease quickly spread.
Oliviaâs funeral was held tonight, and almost everyone from the upper-class society attended it.
Janiceâs eyes were red.
She quite liked this daughter-in-law of hers, but sadly, Olivia passed away too early.
Harold still hadnât recovered.
Standing in the hall with a dazed look on his face, he asked Edmund, âWho died?â Edmund had a
pained look on his face.
âPlease stop asking, Mr. Harold.â The others were discussing it as well.
âI heard that Mr. Miller loves his wife very much.â âIt canât be that much, can it? Wasnât he preparing to
marry another woman some time ago?â âYouâre right.
Mrs. Miller is such a pitiful woman.â Marina didnât have the right to attend the funeral.
But when she heard of Oliviaâs death, she was so overwhelmed that she sobbed.
The day had finally come.
Olivia was dead, so no one would snatch Ethan from her anymore! Fate was on her side.
She had finally outlasted Olivia.
When Ethan made his appearance, the people who knew him were all shocked.
+15 BONUS He was still wearing a formal suit.
His usually clean chin now had stubble on it.
He had a haggard look on his face, and his eyes were red.
He looked like he had aged a decade.
He had lost a lot of weight In a short period.
Keith almost couldnât recognize him.
Keith had expected Ethan to be greatly affected by Oliviaâs death, but he didnât expect Ethan to be
affected this much.
It was as if Ethan had turned into another person.
Ignoring everyoneâs gazes, Ethan slowly walked up to Oliviaâs photo.
The photo was taken in her student days.
Back then, she was innocent and cheery, and her smile was radiant.
Ethan reached out to touch the photo.
He wished that time would freeze at that moment.
That way, Olivia wouldnât have to go through so much suffering.
He recalled everything they had gone through together.
He had stripped her of all her strength, pride, and dignity and then trampled them under his feet.
He had twisted her into an extremely pitiful woman.
He thought, âIâm sorry, Liv.
From today onward, Iâll set you free.
I know that you canât forgive me for what Iâve done.
Iâll atone for it with my whole life.â A single tear streamed down his face.
He shed that tear for the sake of their past.
From today onward, he would start over as well.
âEthan!â A womanâs voice rang out.
While everyone was being emotional, the voice startled them.
They instantly looked at the woman.
Everly was dressed in all black except for a white flower, which adorned her chest.
She spotted Oliviaâs photo hanging in the middle right away.
When she received the news in Arlandia, she didnât quite believe it at first.
But at that moment, when she saw the haggard Ethan, she knew that Olivia had died for real.
Everyone was wondering who this woman was.
Could it be a homewrecker causing trouble? Perhaps some drama was about to play out.
Everly rushed over to Ethan.
Raising her hand, she slapped Ethan across the face.
