Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 1231

That was precisely why S-rank female assassins were so coveted. A man's neck would already be snapped in situations like this. A woman would at least be given a chance to talk her way out of it.

Olivia took a deep breath. Tears welled up in her eyes as she started to put up a performance.

"I saw you passed out at the side of the river and was about to perform CPR…"

"Is that why you took off my shirt?" Wayne's chest was still bare.

Olivia sniffed. "Why else? Do you think I wanted to do it with you? You were unconscious. What could I possibly do?"

Wayne observed her facial expression like he was trying to see if she was telling the truth.

"Who are you? Why are you in a place like this?"

As he talked, the blood from the injury on his arm stained his shirt. It dripped from his skin onto Olivia's face.

"I'm a doctor. I'm here to look for a herb that blooms at night. I didn't expect to find someone unconscious here."

Wayne sneered. "Do you think I'd believe that? No matter who you are, you're dying here right now!"

He began to tighten his fingers around her neck. Olivia's brain went into overdrive as she tried to think of a way to deal with the situation at hand.

She ultimately chose an extremely risky method. If she tried to fight him at that moment, it didn't matter if she succeeded or not. He would be alerted, and it would be impossible for her to get close to him in the future.

Tears streamed down Olivia's face. "I'm really a doctor. If you don't believe me, I can prove it to you by examining your current condition."

Wayne sneered. "You're going to die even if you are a doctor. I don't take any chances."

He tightened his fingers yet again. Olivia was left with no other choice. Wayne was more violent than the data implied. That was why this was an S-rank mission.

Olivia was prepared to fight to the death since she valued her life more than the success of the mission.

As she was about to fight back, Wayne suddenly clutched his head with both hands and screamed.
