Chapter 910
Even After Death
Bren: had a stern look on his face.
âNow that Mr. Millerâs identity is exposed, the various forces that had grudges against him would
pouncen him like hungry wolves to get revenge.
The incident last night is one example. The organization behind those people was the central figure in
Shadow Valley ten years ago.
âThey sent suicide squads who werenât afraid of death and were trying to drag Mr. Miller down even if it
cost them their lives.â
When Olivia heard that, she felt some lingering fear. âThen heâs in great danger now, right?â
âItâs relatively safe here, but as soon as he leaves the military area, there will be danger everywhere.
Also,
I found out on the dark web that someone had posted an anonymous bounty for Mr. Miller.
âIf anyone killed him, they would get a reward of 1 billion dollars. A high-reward bounty like that would
usually attract private assassins and mercenaries.
âAfter all, great rewards attract brave souls.â
As if he were an outsider, Ethan advised Olivia, âIn the past, I kept you because I could protect you. But
now, being by my side is the most dangerous place you can be. You have to leave.â
He was protecting her with his life, but he was convincing Olivia to leave. Olivia had already made up
her mind.
âIâll leave, but not now. Iâll leave after the wounds on your back have healed.â
âLiv, youâ¦â Ethan thought that she would leave without turning back after hearing the truth, but
unexpectedly, she chose to stay.
âDonât get the wrong idea. Those are two different things. I never forgot that you hurt me before, but I
also admit that you got hurt because of me.â
âBut-
âBrent said that itâs safe here, right? It should be fine if I stay here for a few days, yes?â
He hastily left.
âMr. Miller, Iâve already arranged everything for Master Zack and Ms. Alicia.
âIâve also spared some of those men, so you can deal with them when youâve gotten better. Please rest
for now.â
With that, Brent went out the door. A nurse came in with a cart, and she seemed a little nervous as she
faced Ethan.
âHello, itâs time to change your dressings.â
Krystal came in as well. She was like a persistent bug.
âLeave the things here. Iâll take care of it.â
Krystal walked toward the nurse. Then, she even glanced at Olivia as she emphasized her words on
purpose.
âAfter all, I was always the one doing these things in the past.â
Ethan said calmly, âLiv can do it.â
âSova, sheâs just a weak woman. What can she do? Your injuries are severe enough as it is. If she was
too clumsy and worsened your injuries, itâll only be more troublesome.
âLet me do it. Iâm used to these things.â
The nurse glanced between Olivia and Krystal with a gossipy look. By the looks of it, a drama was
brewing.
Ethan had a calm look on his face.
âIâm very grateful to you for transfusing your blood to me last night. I heard that you had drawn a lot of
blood, so you must be quite weak right now. You need proper rest.
âIâm used to Liv taking care of me, so I may not be used to someone else doing it.
*Moreover, she had studied medicine before, so basic care like this is a piece of cake for her.â
Ethan was declining with every single syllable, but Krystal refused to give up. âButâ¦â
âI heard that you got promoted recently, so you should be quite busy these days. You donât have to visit
me anymore.
âWhen Iâve recovered, Iâll visit you to thank you properly.â
With that, he looked at Olivia with a tender gaze. âDarling, please help me change my dressings.â
When Olivia heard that, she had goosebumps on her skin.
Even when they were married, he never called her that when they were outside, let alone now.
If Krystal ignored it, she would be looking for trouble.
So, she could only say, âRest well.â Then, she left in embarrassment.
