Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 1014

The noise could be heard from afar. Olivia seemed to be chasing after someone.

Ethan hurried down the stairs while holding the railing. He chased in the direction of the source of the noise.

He fell several times in the meantime but still got back on his feet and continued his pursuit as though it didn't hurt.

The noise was not far away from him, seemingly luring him somewhere.

Worrying about Olivia's safety, Ethan shouted her name, "Liv! Where are you? Are you alright?"

Olivia woke up from her dream. She thought she heard Ethan calling her name.

"Could it be a dream again?" she wondered.

Uneasiness shrouded her for some reason.

Dismissing the thought of going back to bed, she propped herself up. She figured that checking out the situation could put her mind at rest.

Olivia got out of bed after covering the bedsheet over Willow. She headed downstairs and soon noticed the door to Ehan's room was left ajar.

She wondered, "Why did he leave the door open at this late hour?"

She hurried to his room, where only the dim lamp light was left turned on.

The blanket was left untidied, and there was no sign of Ethan.

"Mr. Miller?" She called but received zero responses.

The uneasiness in her went through the roof.

Considering that Ethan was visually impaired, Olivia assumed that he wouldn't wander around mindlessly.

She had clearly warned him about the poisonous beings in the area. Where could he be?

Olivia checked downstairs but in vain.

There were no phones in the village, let alone security cameras.

She heard some noise coming from the rear house. It was Cyril.

"What are you doing not guarding Ethan?" she interrogated. She didn't even notice her voice was trembling.

"Madam Wendy made me do some chores. It's so late. Mr. Miller should be sleeping."

Olivia was on the edge of going insane.

Cyril had always been this stiff.

Back then, Olivia even thought of marrying Mona to him.

Yet, he failed to make Mona fall for him, although they spent most of their time together every day.
