Chapter 207
Chapter 207
Olivia’s eyes slowly cinto focus. She saw a white shirt.
She looked up and saw Ethan’s strong jawline.
The hope was gone from her eyes. She remembered that Jeff was still unconscious in the hospital.
There was no way he could’ve been here.
“Why did your nose bleed?”
Olivia couldn’t believe that was Ethan’s first question.
She could smell the scent of an unfamiliar shower gel on him.
She recalled the fact that he slept in the sbed as Marina last night. She quickly moved away from his embrace.
“I hit my nose. My mother accidentally hit the wound when she slapped me,” Olivia said calmly.
Ethan stared at her face. He wanted to find hints of her lying.
Olivia looked at him adamantly and said, “What? You don’t believe me?
“Weren’t you the one that said I was in good health and that nothing could be wrong with me?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“That’s true,” Ethan agreed. It wasn’t clear if he was trying to convince himself or Olivia.
He didn’t notice the fleeting smirk that crossed Olivia’s lips.
He did look at her latest medical examination report. There were no issues with her health.
Olivia noticed that she wasn’t in the Miller residence. It was the seaside apartment that she had lived in before.
It would seem like her confrontation bore sfruit. Now that the Carltons were pressuring Ethan, he didn’t dare to openly live with her again.
“Since you’re fine, you can start work tomorrow. The HR department is done with the preparations.”
“Okay,” Olivia replied calmly. “I’m fine now. You can head back now. Don’t let the Carltons misunderstand.”
Her words angered Ethan. The anger on his face becmore apparent. He said coldly, “Is that what you want?”
Olivia replied quietly, “Yes. I do not want to be the third wheel between you and someone else.
“I’ve done foolish things in the past. I don’t want to be a fool anymore.”
Ethan shot her an icy glare and said, “I hope you don’t regret your decision today.”
He stood up and left resolutely.
Olivia’s voice cfrom behind him, “I hope you don’t take your anger out on other people, Ethan.
“I can promise you that I will be yours until the day I die. It won’t change even if we’re not together anymore.
”
Her words brought swarmth to his eyes. He stopped in his tracks and said, “Remember your words today.”
Olivia sighed in relief when the door closed.
She looked at her phone. Colin had sent her spictures of food.
He tagged it with a sheepish emoji.
Olivia tapped on the voice message button and said, “I’m sorry, Colin. I had to leave. Something came up.
“Thank you for today. How much is the hospital bill? I’ll transfer it to you.”
Colin replied almost instantly, “You don’t have to be a stranger to me. If you want to repay me, just take me out for lunch.”

The young man’s voice was clear. The trailing tones carried a lively and uplifting emotion.
“Okay, I’ll treat you to lunch someday. Thanks for taking care of Snowball.”
The conversation ended after he sent a few more emojis.
Olivia took out the other phone hidden in her purse. She dialed Jack’s number.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Are there any new developments?”
Jack replied quickly, “Not much since it’s only been a short while. But I discovered something interesting.”
“What is it?”
“Dr. Galloway and Ryan graduated from the sschool. They were even famed lovers back when they were in school.”
“I knew it! They knew each other!”
Olivia remembered that the nurse said a tall man had visited her father. Ryan was a tall man.
Maybe he was the one who caused Jeff to go into a coma.
“That’s right. I also found out that the companies that Ryan had registered were all shell companies. There is no real meaning for their existence.”
Olivia understood now that Ryan appeared before her to introduce her to Lee.
He wanted her to know the truth. He tried to use the truth to create a rift between Ethan and her.
“This means that if we find Ryan, we get closer to the person behind it all.”
“That’s true. I’ve also uncovered sleads about Belle. I’ll be leaving Aldenvine tonight.”
“You can try and meet up with Ryan when I cback. I’ll help you capture him.”
“Okay. Thanks, Jack.”
“No need. Remember, wait forto return. Don’t alert the enemy.”
