Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 1043

Chapter 1043

It was only then that Ethan came to his senses. He was so elated that desire clouded his thoughts. Olivia had descended in the heavy rain, so she must have gotten hurt.

"Where are you hurt, Liv?"

Even until now, Olivia's mind was in a mess. Before this, she went after Ethan without care for anything else. Now that she had bumped into Ethan for real, her face was filled with an awkward expression.

After all, she even spoke harshly to Ethan last night. She was eating her words too soon.

She didn't know how she should talk to Ethan. Her mind was in a mess, and her heart was even messier.

"I-I'm fine."

There wasn't any illumination in the cave, and the light from outside was meager.

It was daytime, but in reality, it wasn't much different from night.

Fortunately, Ethan was very experienced in survival in the wild. He had gathered lots of firewood before it rained. He hadn't gotten the chance to use them yet, but now that Olivia was here, they came in handy.

Ethan took out a lighter. Then, he quickly lit the firewood.

A warm glow instantly lit up the dark cave.

Turning around, Ethan studied Olivia. She was wearing a black windproof mountaineering jacket. Her jacket was torn in many spots, and he could faintly see the straps under the jacket.

"Where were you hurt?" he asked again.

Olivia felt that after she had trained herself for so long, she didn't want to show her weak side to Ethan.

She subconsciously hid her hand behind her. "Why would I be hurt? I'm familiar with the paths on this mountain. I—"

Grabbing her wrist, Ethan pulled her hand out. The sight of her bloody palm caused Ethan's heart to ache. "Liv!"

"I'm fine. I'm not as weak as you imagine. Minor injuries like this will heal in a few days."

But Ethan's eyes turned red. "I'm sorry, I caused you to be hurt again."
