บททั้งหมดของ Even After Death: บทที่ 1361 - บทที่ 1370

Ethan seemed to have guessed that she would be coming over, so he stood under the streetlights. That way, she would be able to spot the white snow on his figure right away.If her heart ached for him, she would come downstairs.Olivia was in her bathrobe, holding the gift he had sent her as she looked down at him.Right after that, she lowered her head and typed something on her phone. Then, she raised her phone and waved it, gesturing for Ethan to check his phone.Ethan lowered his gaze, thinking that Olivia did indeed care about him.But when he unlocked his phone, the smile froze on his face."Thanks for the gift. The roads might be slippery in this weather, so take care on your way home."Seeing that Ethan had checked his phone, Olivia turned around and went back to her room. She even drew the curtains, firmly blocking her figure from view.In his exasperation, Ethan smiled bitterly. He remembered when she was still in school and she came out in her pajamas despite the snow

Ethan had always been a powerful man, but at that moment, he was extremely humble. "I was picking out the bunnies for you last night, and I decided to get something for Erina while I was at it."Liv, I treasure you, and I care about our children as well. It's almost New Year's, so can you give me a chance to see the children?"He was especially concerned about the tender Willow. They had only spent a short time together in the village before Olivia left with Willow.Olivia sighed. "Alright, just don't do it again."He nodded in agreement. "I won't."Olivia poked at the stubs on his chin. "Go upstairs and wash up.""Sure." Taking her fingertips, he planted a kiss on them. "Have you really calmed down?""Yes, absolutely."It was only then that Ethan sighed in relief and went upstairs. Now, he felt like he was walking on thin ice around Olivia.He had finally contacted her again after a painstaking process, so he was sincerely worried that he might lose Olivia again.Pride and f

Erina's fists rested beside her, and her cheeks were red.Ethan raised his gaze onto her and pulled her. "Not entirely. I have a story to tell you."Tears flowed down her cheeks. "What if I oppose your remarriage? It's true that you haven't been getting along with Mom all these years, but I heard that you've been alone the entire time. Can't you stay as you are right now?"Are you this desperate to build a new family with another person? I don't want that! I don't want you to have kids with another person. You can only be my father. Mine only!"Ethan stared right into her eyes. It had been a long time since they last met, but the obsession in her eyes was all too familiar.She took after Marina so much.Fortunately, he noticed it in time. It would've been a catastrophe if he had realized it later."Erina, calm down.""No!" Erina threw herself into his arms. Her tears showed no sign of stopping. "Dad, Mom and I love you. Don't abandon us! Please! I know she's done wrong things,

Goosebumps prickled Marina's arms as trepidation slowly ate her up. "I don't quite get what you mean. Are you not going to give me an anesthetic shot?"Olivia smiled. "That's right."Marina thought that she had played it off as a joke, but Olivia took it seriously!Marina's features were stiff. "T-This has to be a joke. It's amputation! How could you not give me an anesthetic shot?"Obeying her instincts, she moved around but to no avail. Her wrists were tightly fettered.At the same time, Olivia had brought out the necessary tools.After the car crash, Marina was given an anesthetic shot for the surgery, so she didn't know how the surgery was supposed to work.Olivia played with a scalpel in her hand with clean moves. Instead of a doctor, she appeared more like a killer right now."Who's joking?" She chuckled in her original voice.Despite the long years of absence, her voice was etched in Marina's head."O-Olivia Fordham!" Marina shook her head in disbelief, convincing hers

On the chopping board, Marina couldn't defend herself. Still, she was stubborn and insisted on surviving this. "Olivia Fordham, don't you forget that Ethan still owes me. If you hurt me, he's never gonna let you get away with it."Olivia let out a low chuckle. "If so, do you think he would've led you all the way here himself?"Marina was stunned. Ethan and Kurt grew up together. Could Ethan actually stay unbothered by Kurt's death?"Bet you're thinking about that man whom Ethan owes his life to. Yes, he is indebted to that person, but what does that have to do with you? You were merely that person's crush. You weren't even a couple."Let's say Ethan did give his word to look after you, did he not uphold his word well enough by sacrificing his marriage and family?"If I were you, I wouldn't have poured everything into a relationship for a man. It's stupid. In the end, you gained nothing from it and his patience thinned. He resents you more than I do. "Why would he possibly protec
