Chapter 560

Olivia stopped in her tracks to turn to look at Marina after hearing her despairing voice.

Marina didn’t care about the housekeeper, who was trying to help her up. She was so stubborn that she wanted to crawl toward Ethan.

Her helpless and pitiful state reminded Olivia of her past. Olivia had once pleaded with Ethan not to divorce her.

She now realized how pitiful she seemed at that time.

“Are you going to let her be?” Olivia crossed her arms, assuming that Ethan ignored Marina because he was considering her emotions.

“You don’t have to mind me. It doesn’t bother me.”

Ethan was hurt to hear that. He held Olivia’s hand. “Liv, I have never loved Marina. I said I was going to marry her because I wanted to repay a favor.”

She sneered. “And that repayment requires you to have sex with her? Interesting.”

“Liv, Connor’s actually-” When he was going to blurt that out, he closed his eyes only to recall the night he rescued Olivia from the sea.

She almost died at that time, and it broke his heart to recall that again.

He still didn’t know who was the mastermind that wanted to assassinate her. If someone found out that Connor was actually Olivia’s child, Connor would be in trouble!

Thus, Ethan could only swallow the secret at the tip of his tongue.

Olivia spared him a glance and left without waiting for his explanation.

She would only need an explanation from him if she cared for him. She didn’t, so why would she care about his emotions?

Marina was getting closer to the couple, and yet they walked away, leaving her alone.

She shouted at the top of her lungs, “Ethan!”

She would never mention Kurt’s matter in front of others. He was her last trump card.

Although Ethan had called off his engagement with Marina, he didn’t reduce his provision to the Carltons. He still looked after them.

The Carltons’ position was vulnerable now.

Back then, Chris was around to keep things under control. Even though he didn’t have a son, no one dared to lay a finger on them.

Now that Chris had passed away and Marina was disabled, in addition to the called-off engagement, her relatives were getting

restless.

They didn’t dare to set their plans into action solely due to Ethan’s formidable influence.

Marina was having a tough life. On the one hand, she had to please Ethan with caution; on the other hand, she had to bear the pressure from the Carltons.

Snowflakes landed upon her. Her body was cold, but it couldn’t beat the chill creeping into her heart.

All Marina could do was to watch Ethan slowly walking farther and farther from her with sorrowful eyes.

Olivia shoved Ethan’s hand and got into the car alone. The heat in the car was warming her up.

He handed her a hand warmer. “Your body is affected by the preterm delivery, so you can’t be exposed to the cold. Warm yourself up.”

She caressed the hand warmer and said indifferently, “Sendto Volt Peak Mountain today.”

“Liv, I can hire a professional to train you. You don’t have to take it that far.”

She turned her head, gazing at him. “We can only awaken our potential on the brink of death. Even if you hire the best trainer for me, I will still be weak.

“If I weren’t one step away from death, I would’ve thought that that was enough. But I witnessed how Mona died, how much she loved Warren.

“She loved him since they were still students. Even if he didn’t like her, they must’ve at least formed a bond at a certain level after talking to each other every day.

“He didn’t show a hint of hesitation when he raised his gun that day. He didn’t even bat an eyelash. Only then did I realize that he isn’t a human with emotions. He’s an emotionless weapon.

“Kindness is the biggest hurdle in growth. I want to grow stronger, so I need to forsake these emotions. I won’t have a weakness if I’m void of emotions.”

“So, you personally sent your father off one last tto face a new chapter in life.”

She nodded. “Yes. Not even a miracle could save him. Instead of making him stay selfishly, it’s better to set him free with dignity. That way, I won’t have anything or anyone holdingback.”

The glint in Ethan’s eyes wavered. “What about me, Liv? Don’t you care abouta single bit?”

Olivia looked at the dancing snowflake outside, saying softly, “I don’t love you anymore.”
