Ethan didn’t speak, but his expression said it all. He didn’t want to discuss this subject with Olivia.

“Liv, I have my considerations.” There were things that Ethan couldn’t tell Olivia.

Smiling coldly, Olivia said, “She indirectly killed our baby, pushedinto depression for two years, and now she’s trying to kill my mother. I’m really curious as to why you’re so lenient with her.”

If he truly loved Marina, why would he go to such lengths to win her favor? Ethan would never have stooped to doing such things. Olivia was confused.

”

“Sthings are not the way you think they are. I’ll tell you everything when the tis right.

It was always about timing with Ethan. Olivia didn’t know when the twould be right. She only knew that the conflicts she had been forced into had caused her family to be ruined.

“Rest here for a while. I’ll get you ssoup.” Ethan hurried to the kitchen. He was intent on avoiding that subject.

He opened the pot, and the fragrant smell of the soup wafted in the kitchen. He stirred the soup gently with a wooden ladle.

Ethan’s phone vibrated, and he picked it up. It was a call from Brent.

“Mr. Miller, I’ve looked into it. Mrs. Miller did save Avery Fordham before. But all she did was bring him to the emergency room. She left after paying the bill. There was no other interaction

between them.”

A stormy expression appeared on Ethan’s face. He asked in an irritated tone, “What about Avery’s side of things?”

“I’m not so sure right now, but it doesn’t seem like he’s here on business. This might be a personal trip. I was also able to get my hands on his medical report.”

“What illness does he have?”

Brent said slowly, “Kidney failure.”

“Understood. Get someone to keep an eye on him.”

“Yes, sir.”

“And…”

Ethan suddenly lowered his voice and glanced at the door. He saw that Olivia was heading upstairs and asked, “How’s the investigation on Toxic Hive going?”

“There haven’t been any developments yet. It seems like someone is protecting them. I haven’t been able to find anything.”

“Keep the investigation going.”

“Understood.”

Ethan hung up, thinking about the woman he grabbed that night. He was almost entirely sure

that she was Leia.

He felt conflicted. The sister he missed for so many years was still alive. He should be overjoyed. However, not only did Leia join a terrorist organization and kill innocent people, but the most important

thing was that she hurt the woman he loved.

Ethan didn’t know how he would feel when he faced his sister.

He was deep in thought and accidentally spilled sof the scalding hot soup on his hand. He immediately cback to his senses.

While waiting for the soup to cool down, Ethan called Kelvin. “How’s the investigation at the hospital?”

“Ms. Carlton was the only one that went into Mrs. Carlton’s ward other than the usual caregiver and medical staff. There aren’t any cameras in the ward, so no one knows what happened in there.”

“Did they perform any other checks? Could someone have used drugs? How else could her condition worsen so abruptly?”

“Currently, Mrs. Carlton has been resuscitated and sent to the ICU for observation. A blood test was done. There are no issues.”

Hanging up, Ethan played with the ladle. His expression grew gloomier.

Toxic Hive was like its nsuggested. They were insects that would infiltrate everywhere. Ethan had no idea who they had bribed to provide them protection. Even his men were unable to uncover any leads.

Toxic Hive was second to none when it cto drugs.

Ethan thought about it for a while and decided to call Marina.

On the other end of the phone, Marina didn’t seem surprised. Instead, she was a little distracted.

“Hi, Ethan.” Marina sounded tired.

“We haven’t eaten together for stWhy don’t we meet up tonight?” Ethan asked

In the past, Marina would be delighted to receive an invitation from Ethan. But she was

reluctant this time.

“M Ms. Parker is in the ICU. I need to be at the hospital in case anything happens”

Ethan grabbed the ladle tightly. There was a hint of determination on his face.

“Other than having dinner, I also want to talk to you about our marriage.

“M-Marriage?” Marina was so happy she could faint.

“The incident during the engagement party becpublic knowledge Miller Group’s stocks have becunstable because of it. That’s why I want to discuss our marriage with you.”

Ethan knew that their marriage was the one thing Marina cared about the most. It was the best bait to lure her out.

“Okay, I’ll be there.”
