Even After Death Novel (Olivia)
Chapter 320

Chapter 320

Ethan's expression looked extra serious under the glow of the fireflies. Licking her dry lips, Olivia asked softly, “Ethan, is Marina someone you fancied on a whim? Or is she your one true love?” Ethan chuckled in exasperation. “If she’s my one true love, why would I marry you? Liv, do you not know how I feel about you?

He had hurt her, but he had also treated her well. If not, she wouldn't have hesitated to let go of him.

“So you fancied her on a whim just to provoke me?”

It had been two years. Their marriage was already over, but she still wanted an explanation.

Ethan embraced her. Olivia could hear him sighing next to her

ear.

“Liv, I'll tell you everything between me and Marina, but not now. Can you trust me one last time?”

As if fearing rejection, Ethan added, “Don’t believe what the others said about Marina being my true love. To me, she’s just a younger sister who grew up in my social circle. But...”

He suddenly looked up. He locked eyes with Olivia, saying, “I do have one true love in my heart, but she’s not Marina. She's”

Olivia met Ethan's passionate gaze. Her heart thumped wildly.

Petals and fireflies danced around the two. The place was extremely beautiful. It even blurred her hatred and disgust toward Ethan.

Ethan was about to say something when the phone in his pocket started vibrating.

The island was silent, and even the birds had gone to roost. Only the vibrating sounds could be heard. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Go ahead and answer it,” Olivia said indifferently.

Ethan glanced at his phone. It was a call from Brent.

If Brent was calling him at this hour, there must be something important going on.

Ethan answered the call. “Hello?”

"Bad news, Mr. Miller.”

Ethan didn’t know which aspect Brent was referring to. Glancing at Olivia, he stepped aside and talked over the phone.

The sea breeze cleared Olivia's heated mind a little.

Scoffing, she turned around and left.

Now that things had come to this point, it shouldn't matter to her who Ethan's true love was.

When Ethan ended the call, he wanted to continue the conversation just now. But Olivia had disappeared.

Only the dancing fireflies remained. The firefly lantern was left on the cobblestone path.

Ethan rushed back to look for Olivia. Olivia was leaning against the headboard, reading a book. She didn’t even glance at him

when he entered.

“I'm sorry, Liv. I have to go.”

Ethan's voice was urgent. “I promise I'll go diving with you next time.” Olivia flipped a page. Then, she said nonchalantly, “Okay.”

Sitting by the bed, Ethan took her hand and spoke earnestly, “I know you hate me for trapping you on this island.

“Liv, I don’t want to lie to you. Putting my selfish desires aside, I just want you to be safe. I found out that those people were involved with the Toxic Hive.”

It was only then that the look in Olivia's eyes flickered. “The Toxic Hive?"

“It's an international drug organization made up of wanted criminals from various nations. They aren't nice people, Liv.

“They could do anything to get conclusive results. That includes conducting experiments at the risk of thousands of lives.

“They spread out in various nations, but they also delve deep. They're connected to many business empires.

“Some higher-ups even want to establish illegal partnerships with them. They would get more money that way. In return, they would provide the Toxic Hive with convenience and protection.”

Olivia was shocked. It was no wonder that she couldn't dig up anything on the Toxic Hive at all. The organization was simply too powerful.

“I suspect that they are working with people from our country as well. So I couldn't be contacted when I was trying to determine their whereabouts.

“Liv, I don’t know why they joined Miller Group. Miller Group has been working fine for the past few years, not to mention there aren't any financial problems. That's why I never noticed they were there.

“But they are hostile toward you. That's why I don’t want you to go back. There's another important reason as well.”
