Chapter 981
Even After Death
Willow couldnât speak, so she could only express her joy with her body. She kept rubbing her face
against the womanâs cheek.
âGood girl. Iâm home.â
When they returned to the cottage, Krystal had woken up as well.
Last night, to stop her from bawling and disturbing Ethan, Brent had knocked her out right away.
When she saw the man Kelvin was carrying, she came over as she sobbed.
âHow can you do this, Sova? How can you leave me alone? Take me with you, please.â
A cold female voice rang out. âIf youâre going to wail again, get out. Youâre so noisy.â
Krystal had opened her mouth wide and was about to cry. But when she heard that, she paused.
Caught between sobbing and deciding against it, she looked a little funny.
It was only then that she noticed the unfamiliar woman. âWho is she?â
âKrystal, this is the miraculous doctor who can cure Mr. Miller. Mind your manners.â
Fearing that Krystal would throw a tantrum again, Kelvin hastily notified her.
Krystal was a proud woman, but she truly cared about Ethan. She would do anything as long as it
benefited Ethan.
So, she changed her expression right away. âOh, youâre the miraculous doctor. I leave my Sova in your
hands.â
Kelvin frowned. Since when had Ethan become hers?
Wendy appeared at the entrance. âYouâre back.â
âMadam Wendy.â
âYou just came back, so you probably donât know whatâs going on. Let me introduce them to you. These
people are here to seek treatment.
âI met Joel once 40 years ago, so I allowed them to stay here for the night. This man here was inflicted
with the Ninefold Venom, and heâs barely holding on. That woman is his fiancée.â
As Wendy made the introductions, she emphasized the word âfiancéeâ.
The woman replied calmly, âGot it. You lot, carry him to the cave at the back. Willow, lead the way. Iâll
prepare the things to save hi:n.â
She moved quickly. The others hastily obeyed her, fearing that she would change her mind.
The woman went back to her room and changed her clothes. Wendy followed her in.
âLook at the state youâre in! You rushed back here, didnât you?â
âYes. I havenât seen Willow in a while, and I missed her a lot.â
âWere you missing her or your ex-husband?â
The woman, who was changing her clothes, paused for a moment.
Wendy continued, âStop hiding it from me. Heâs that ex-husband of yours, right?
âAlicia looks exactly like him, and Zack takes after his personality, too. I could guess who he was as
soon as he appeared.â
âYes, heâs my ex-husband.â
Olivia turned around. She didnât take off her mask, which was hiding her face. She changed into some
coarse linen clothes like Willowâs.
The only thing adorning her was the five-colored silk threads.
After more than three years, her hair had grown out. She tied it up loosely.
âYou saw it for yourself. He already has a fiancée, which means that he has already forgotten about
you.
âIf you ask me, I donât think you should save an unfaithful man like him.â
âMadam Wendy, I know youâre concerned about me. But heâs the father of my children, after all. Even if
itâs no longer possible between us, the children are innocent.
âI donât want them to lose their father for good.
âWe have already divorced a long time ago, so itâs normal for him to remarry.â
Wendy sighed as she handed the test report to Olivia.
âThis is the blood analysis. Make your next move accordingly. After all, I canât meddle in the matters
between you youngsters.â
Olivia nodded. âThank you, Madam Wendy.â
She took out some candy from her bag. âHere, this is for you.â
Wendyâs eyes lit up. âThatâs more like it. When are you bringing me out for some skiing again? Iâm sick
of staying in this village.â
Olivia chuckled. âJust wait a little longer, maybe after Iâve cured him.â
