Chapter 860
Even After Death
Oliviaâs face turned beet red after she blurted that.
Had she not built up her willpower through chemotherapy, she wouldâve already lost control of herself.
Ethan stared at the embarrassed woman. Despite knowing that she was acting this way because of the
drugs, he couldnât help his racing heartbeat.
âIâll face my back at you then. I wonât look at you.â He turned around, gazing out of the window.
The night sea was somber without the touch of gleaming sunlight. He could hear the whirring sound of
helicopters approaching.
The real party was going to begin.
Almost ten minutes later, the sound of a woman moaning suddenly resounded behind him.
Ethan hurriedly turned around, only to see her red face. Aside from her hair and body, her eyes were
watery too. The corners of her eyes were red.
She was fatally sexy.
âMiss, are you⦠alright?â
The groggy Olivia wanted to get up in the bathtub, but her weak limbs wouldnât listen to her head.
She fell the second she stood up.
âBe careful!â He quickly held her hand, and she yanked him into the bathtub.
Fortunately, he held the back of her head, so she was unscathed
The two drenched people were so close to each other.
Without a care in the world, Olivia listened to her instincts and wrapped her arms around his neck.
She pulled herself closer to him. âI feel so uncomfortable.â
Ethan held her tightly and didnât do anything else. âI know.â
He could relate to her. Back then, this man with strong self-control almost lost it too.
Had it not been for the medicine, he wouldnât have been able to slog it through.
How could Olivia possibly stave the effects off by simply dipping her body in cold water?
All he could do was hug her, giving her the temporary comfort that she needed so as to mitigate the
effect.
She rested her cheek against his cold mask. Her body slightly ground against his.
âLogan, I canât put up with it any longer. What should I doâ¦â she cried. âItâs so uncomfortable. Iâm going
crazy. Iâm seriously going crazy. This is harder than dying.â
Ethanâs rough fingers caressed her cheek as he let out a silent sigh. âI know. I understand, Miss, I can
help you.â
âNo! I canât do it!â Oliviaâs tears trickled down his neck.
He patted her back, comforting her. âMiss, is it because of that person? Is it because you still love him?
Is that why you canât accept others?â
âNo, itâs definitely not because of him.â Olivia clenched her teeth. âI resent him to the bones.â
Resentment roots from love. You resent him because you love him a lot.â He suddenly questioned, âIf
he were the one with you today, would you accept him?â
Oliviaâs head was a mess. She was on the verge of losing her rationality.
Would she have accepted Ethan if he were here?
There was no cure, and she couldnât handle it alone.
Ethan was her only man.
âNo,â she answered confidently. âHeâs filthy. Heâs touched another woman. Iâll never let him touch me
again!â
Ethan sighed. It seemed like he needed to talk to her when the time was right.
He swore to God that he had never touched Marina!
âFine, letâs not talk about him. Letâs talk about you. Miss, you clearly know how strong the drugs are.
Back then, I was only able to handle it after taking two injections.
âWe canât simply give you anything because youâre weak. Otherwise, itâll stimulate the cancer cells
again.
You have a daughter, and there are so many things you want to do. Do you want your health to
deteriorate because of this?â
Olivia couldnât think of anything as she shook her head vigorously. âWhat should I do? Why does it
have to be me
