Semua Bab Even After Death: Bab 311 - Bab 320

Olivia didn't fall into the sea. She was hanging in midair amidst the blowing wind because Ethan and Colin were grabbing her hands.Although it was the first time the men worked together, they had good chemistry. They pulled her onto the deck in one go.Ethan hugged her cold body tightly. "Liv, I'm sorry."Olivia didn't respond.He carried her into the cabin.When they passed Colin, the men met each other's eyes. Colin wanted to say something, but he didn't in the end.He recalled what Olivia had said before this.When they were still on the deck, Olivia whispered, "Colin, I will use an extreme way to save you. "Once we are separated, leave Aldenvine immediately. Do not come back for the time being.""Don't do anything silly, Olivia. I'm fine. I've mentally prepared myself for the plan to fail. Don't do anything silly because of me."She smiled helplessly, but her eyes showed her determination. "Don't worry. I need to stay alive to find out the truth. I won't die." She continued cold

Ethan left the cabin after calming Olivia down. When the door was closed, her body slowly loosened.She spread her sweaty palms, letting out a helpless smile.She wondered when the both of them had to put their guards up against each other.They were neither lovers nor friends. It was not a relationship between a superior and a subordinate either.She found it difficult to describe their relationship.As long as Ethan wouldn't cause Colin trouble, Olivia and Colin were considered safe for today.Colin was all drenched, putting up with the wind and rain on the deck.Ethan sized him up and met his eyes. Colin was standing straight, showing no signs of yielding.He looked at Ethan confidently.In fact, Ethan looked down upon people like Colin the most. Colin appeared innocent and harmless.Even though he previously attempted to do that to Olivia on the ship, Ethan only saw him as a kid.Ethan wasn't bothered in the slightest.Now, Colin's presence bothered Ethan a little. Coli

That night, Olivia lay in Ethan's arms. There was a storm outside, and the hull swayed from time to time. For some reason, Olivia slept soundly.Before this, she couldn't sleep for the longest time. Even if she did fall asleep, her sleep was restless. Even in her dreams, she was scared that she would be kidnapped again.If it happened again, she would've died for sure.In her dreams, Olivia kept mumbling, "Who exactly are you? Why are you trying to kill me?""Ah!"Ethan held her tightly. In a tender voice, he spoke comfortingly in her ear. "Don't be afraid, Liv. I'm here."Slowly, Olivia's emotions were soothed. But Ethan didn't feel like sleeping at all.Under the dim lights, he gazed at the contours of Olivia's thin face. He touched her slender hands.He couldn't help but recall what Olivia looked like in the past. She used to be such a cheerful woman.When she got married to him, there was still some baby fat on her face. She looked a little childish and innocent back

Olivia noticed that Kelvin and Brent weren't there. There were several servants and chefs on the island, though. Soon, a seafood feast was prepared for her.Without saying a word, she lowered her head and drank some soup.Ethan felt uncomfortable with the eerie silence. Hence, he started a conversation. "Liv, you used to talk a lot in the past."Olivia froze for a moment. He was right. She was quite talkative in the past.Back then, Ethan was busy every day. He would either be on business trips or at work. He rarely had time for her.Olivia cherished every second she could spend with him. So, she was the most talkative during mealtimes, which were supposed to be quiet. She could chatter on and on. She choked on her food a few times and got into a coughing fit. Still, she just drank some water and continued. Her face was filled with lively smiles.But now, there were no smiles on her face. There wasn't even much emotion.Putting her spoon down, Olivia wiped her mouth and re

Ethan's expression looked extra serious under the glow of the fireflies.Licking her dry lips, Olivia asked softly, "Ethan, is Marina someone you fancied on a whim? Or is she your one true love?"Ethan chuckled in exasperation. "If she's my one true love, why would I marry you? Liv, do you not know how I feel about you?"He had hurt her, but he had also treated her well. If not, she wouldn't have hesitated to let go of him."So you fancied her on a whim just to provoke me?"It had been two years. Their marriage was already over, but she still wanted an explanation.Ethan embraced her. Olivia could hear him sighing next to her ear."Liv, I'll tell you everything between me and Marina, but not now. Can you trust me one last time?"As if fearing rejection, Ethan added, "Don't believe what the others said about Marina being my true love. To me, she's just a younger sister who grew up in my social circle. But …"He suddenly looked up. He locked eyes with Olivia, saying, "I do have
