Chapter 822

Olivia’s voice wasn’t loud, but her words were deafening.

Ethan didn’t have a response to them.

It was true. He had hurt her so deeply. Why would she ever cback to him? He was being delusional.

A hint of uneasiness flashed on Olivia’s face when she noticed Ethan had fallen silent.

“I’m sorry. I lost my composure for a bit.”

“No, I think a man like your ex-husband could die a hundred times over, and it still wouldn’t be enough to make up for the pain you felt.”

“I just hope that I don’t meet him ever again,” Olivia replied.

Ethan composed himself and said, “I understand now. We have to sneak into Aldenvine without him noticing, right?”

“Yeah. That’s why I tried to sneak onto Tobias’ ship. It was unfortunate that we encountered pirates. We have to find another way now that the cargo ship is no longer an option.

“Don’t worry, Ms. Fordham. Leave it to me.”

Olivia had only wanted him to help cup with an idea.

She looked at him in surprise. “Can you really pull it off?”

“I’ve been to so many countries over the years. I have a few underhanded tricks up my sleeve.” Ethan looked at her with a straight face and said, “You can always trust me, Ms. Fordham.”

Their eyes met and Olivia could see the sincerity in his gaze.

Ethan wore contact lenses that covered up his eye’s original color. They looked yellowish to her.

For sreason, she had a weird feeling in her chest.

Ethan suddenly kneeled on one knee. He raised her hand. There was no levity in his actions, only solemnity and respect. He was like a medieval knight.

“I will never betray you.”

It was like a promise that surpassed their relationship as employer and employee.

Olivia was stunned. Her mind blanked out. She didn’t expect Logan to do something like this.

What did he mean by that?

But before she could think further about it, Ethan had already gotten up. “I’ll go make arrangements now.

You may need to wait a few days, Ms. Fordham.”

Olivia nodded absent-mindedly. The hand he touched and her face were both flushed.

He was confessing, right?

Probably not.

In the past, Olivia would be very confident. She had plenty of men pursuing her. But Logan met her when she was terminally ill and extremely frail.

She figured no sane person would fall for such a sickly woman. She even went back to her room and looked into the mirror.

In the mirror, she saw the short hair on her head, shorter than potted plants. Although her features were fine, her reflection still looked weird to her.

He probably… meant what he said. She shouldn’t think too much into it.

As she was thinking about it anxiously, Ethan returned to normal and dispelled her concerns.

She knew he wasn’t really into her. If he did have feelings for her, things would get awkward for them.

Logan kept the usual distance from her and looked at her calmly. There would only be flashes of tenderness in his gaze when he was looking at Alicia.

“Ms. Fordham, we can leave in three days.”

Olivia was overjoyed. “You really found a way?”

“Yeah. I contacted sof my old friends. We can go near Aldenvine on a black ship.”

“Black ship?” Olivia was confused.

“It’s… a ship that isn’t entirely legal. There will be a lot of illegal transactions on the ship. They would sail to the international waters for the transaction. Then, they’ll return after a while.

“We just need to be on it until we’re near Aldenvine. These ships have powerful backers and can evade investigations.”
