Chapter 272

Marina could feel everyone’s gaze even though she couldn’t see.

She cried for help, “Ethan! Dad! Help me! You have to save me. I don’t want to die.”

Olivia wasn’t feeling good. She had yet to eat breakfast, and her stomach had been aching for a while. Her forehead was covered in sweat, making the ocean breeze feel more chilly.

She didn’t have the energy to call for help like Marina. The rope around her waist made it hard for her to breathe. She was sure the outcwould be the seither way.

Ethan chose Marina a year ago, and she knew his choice wouldn’t change. She wasn’t disappointed because she never had any hope to begin with.

As she was in despair and thinking of her chances of escaping, she heard snoise. The aufrom the audience’s side was being broadcasted to them.

Chloe’s weeping was especially loud. “Marina, Olivia, are you two okay?”

Olivia slowly opened her lifeless eyes. She tried to look toward Chloe’s voice even though she was blindfolded.

Chloe’s voice further intensified Marina’s emotions. She cried, “Mom, please save me!”

“Don’t worry, Marina. Your dad will get you out of this.”

Olivia’s stomach was in a lot of pain. Her lips were chapped. She licked them, but she didn’t say a word.

She realized that she cared more about Chloe’s choice than Ethan’s. Chloe was her mother, after all. Olivia touched her phone watch, feeling uneasy.

She was like a student waiting for her grades, anxious and unsettled.

In her mind, even though Chloe had abandoned her for so many years, she was still just Marina’s stepmother. Surely, she would pick her biological daughter over her stepdaughter, right?

The answer should have been obvious, but Olivia was so nervous she could barely breathe.

Chloe pleaded in a shaky voice, “I beg of you, please let my daughters go. They’ve never done you any harm. If you want money, just nyour price. We’ll give you any amount you want. Just don’t hurt them. We can give you anything you want.” Chloe’s sorrowful voice shook Olivia. Olivia knew Chloe had never experienced much hardships in her life. She must be so terrified now. She also had a heart condition. Olivia was worried that she might faint.

Even she didn’t realize that she was only thinking of Chloe.

Ethan finally spoke up. “What do you want?”

He felt very uncertain. He hoped that the people who kidnapped Olivia and Marina weren’t the ones who were after him.

If it was, Olivia and Marina would be doomed. They might even die horrible deaths.

The incident was being streamed on the internet. It matched those people’s way of doing things. Those people excelled at creating commotions. They liked to humiliate, torture, and even dismember their victims publicly.

Ethan had experienced countless trials and tribulations in his life. He had forged an indomitable will over the years. But he was trembling right now. Every single one of his fingers were shaking uncontrollably.

He had seen many dead bodies, and he was prepared to die at any time. But he didn’t want the people close to him to experience such misfortune.

He spent many years trying to leave his dark past behind. It took great effort for him to becwho he was. He didn’t know how he was exposed.

He wondered if he had attracted the attention of those people when he went to the island to save Olivia and Connor.

He knew there was no point in pondering about that. He tried his best to hide all traces of worry and fear on his face. The guests were all panicking, but they saw Ethan standing with his hands behind his back.

Ethan said calmly, “Let them go. Your demands will be fulfilled.”
