Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 106

Chapter 106

Kelvin quickly held on to Olivia, supporting her.

She managed to fight the drowsiness away.

“Mrs. Miller, are you alright? I’ll take you to the hospital.”

She shook her head. “I’m fine. I’m low on sugar. That’s it.”

She was aware that her body had reached its limit after she fought with Marina and saved Connor.

Kelvin observed her, anxious. “But why do I feel that you’re getting weaker?”

“I’m really fine. Please take me home.”

After she left, Brent returned to the manor with medicines.

The cold compression and the medicines managed to mitigate Connor’s allergic reaction before it became worse.

Ethan patiently checked on Connor.

Obviously, Olivia had protected him well. That was why he was unscathed.

It had been a rough day for Connor. Exhausted, he eventually fell asleep in Ethan’s arms while clutching his shirt.

He entrusted Connor to Mina.

Marina approached Ethan with a vulnerable expression. “Ethan, you have to believe me. Olivia came to retrieve the Fordham residence.

“She made a honey cake to please me. But she became vulgar with her words after I refused to give her the residence.

“She even threatened me with a knife! The maids protected me by snatching the knife from her.

“Then, she held Connor hostage. Fortunately, you came back in time. Otherwise, it would’ve been a tragedy.”

Her story was full of loopholes.

Ethan didn’t want to and couldn’t care less about this pointless subject. He cut to the chase. “I want the Fordham residence.” Marina was shell–shocked. Without the Fordham residence in her hands, she didn’t have a trump card to oppress Olivia.

Thus, she would never hand over the residence to anyone else.

She walked up to him. “Ethan, you gotta believe me. Olivia seriously has a knack for acting-”

”

He shoved her away. “I know her better than you. And I know you all too well. I did not intervene in your matters, but that doesn’t mean I’m blind.

“Marina Carlton. I’ve granted all of your wishes, so do not cross the line. Don’t let Jethro’s sacrifice be in vain. This is the last time.” He stood up.

She pleaded, “But I’ve asked someone to proceed with the-”

Ethan’s icy gaze landed on her, exuding a murderous intent. “This is not a negotiation. I’m informing you. Take good care of Connor, and stop wasting your time on useless matters.

“If you keep testing my patience, I can’t guarantee you that I will show up at the engagement party.”
