Even After Death Novel (Olivia)
Chapter 1396

"Pardon me, I do not get what you're trying to say, Mr. Maxwell."

“You don't have to play dumb. It doesn't suit you. My demand is simple, if you tend to my injuries, then all of that is just a joke. Or else..."

He would claim that it was an act of terrorism. Then, things would get blown out of proportion.

Olivia slowly walked toward Ethan.

“Let me do it, Ethan.”

"Liv..."

Ethan knew what Wayne was after. He didn't want Olivia to go through with it.

She wouldn't have to care about all this if she didn't accept the Heaths as her family. But she was part of the family. So, she couldn't stand by and do nothing.

Linus personally flew all the way to Raka to save her. It was time for her to do something for the family. It was just tending to Wayne's injuries. It wasn't anything much.

She patted his hand. "I'll be done with it very quickly.”

Wayne was nothing more than a regular patient to her.

Ethan frowned as he could only watch helplessly as she walked toward another man.

She was just going to tend to some simple injuries, and yet Ethan felt like someone was stabbing a knife into his heart.

He couldn't imagine the pain Olivia felt when he walked toward Marina. At that moment, it was just karma coming back to bite him. It was his punishment.

Wayne looked at Ethan with a smug expression. "If you please, Ms. Heath."

Ethan's arms hung at his sides as he clenched his fists.

"You're welcome, Mr. Maxwell.”

Olivia took out a cotton ball, dabbed it with some alcohol, and pressed it against his face. Wayne winced and almost cried out in pain.

But Olivia remained calm. "Mr. Maxwell, I said some nonsensical stuff in the car while I was in shock. I even scratched you. Can you please forgive me?"

"Of... Of course.” Wayne winced, revealing his teeth. He was sure Olivia was doing it on purpose.

“I'll just have to trouble you to tend to all my injuries as I recover, Ms. Heath."

Ike and Alan winced as they looked at how roughly Olivia was treating Wayne. They started to wonder if he was a masochist.

Was one time not enough? Was he planning on getting injured by her again? Was he addicted to the pain?

Ethan slammed his palm on the table and stood up. "Stop pushing your luck!"

Olivia replied. "Sure. It's the least I could do."

Wayne said to Ethan smugly. “It seems like Ms. Heath is a very considerate person. Or should I say, that she enjoys tending to my wounds?" Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Ike was rendered speechless. In the past, Wayne had no interest in women at all. But he was strutting around like a peacock, trying to catch Olivia's attention.

The Tanner brothers got second-hand embarrassment from Wayne's actions. They had the urge to stuff some cotton balls down his throat to stop him from talking.

Olivia quickly smeared some ointment on Wayne's face with a cotton swab.

It's done."

"So quickly?"

Olivia maintained a robotic smile. "It's just some scratches, of course it was fast. How much longer did you want it to be?"

She raised her hand and cracked her knuckles. "But if you want me to loosen your joints a little and reassemble your bones, I'll be happy to help too, Mr. Maxwell."

Mason covered his mouth with a fist and cleared his throat.

"Alright, Olivia. Stop threatening our guest. Come over here. Mr. Maxwell said the proposal he has concerns you. So, sit down and listen in."

Olivia felt a chill down her spine. She had a feeling that nothing good was going to come out of Wayne's mouth.

But Mason had spoken. She had to stay. She sat down and acted obediently.

"Can we start the meeting now, Mr. Maxwell?"

Wayne took a cup of tea that a maid handed her and took a sip.

"Mr. Hearth, you know me. I like to cut to the chase. There had been some misunderstandings that caused our countries to be at odds. I'm here today to end the conflict.”

"Tell me more."

“I've brought a deal worth billions here. The deal encompasses industries such as railway construction, oil, new energy vehicles, etc. I want to form an alliance with Arlandia.”

Mason remained calm. "That's new. Carathia and Arlandia have been at odds for decades. You're trying to form an alliance now? Something smells fishy here."

“No, it's very simple. Our countries can be joined by marriage. I know you have a daughter, Mr. Heath. I've come to ask for her hand in marriage."
