At the dining table, Otto took Ethan's hand and said sincerely, "I don't have much time left, Ethan.
"Originally, the grandson-in-law I was most keen on having was you, but in the end, things weren't meant to be between you and Marina. Now that things have come to this point, I won't ask for too much.
"I just hope that you won't attack the Carltons, even if it's just because of the connection between our families. Please give us as much support as you can."
When Otto said those words, Fabian gripped the wine glass tightly. But when Otto looked at him, he put on a fake friendly face.
Olivia once saw Fabian meeting up with Yale, so he must be on the Yale family's side. Hence, it made sense that he would be upset with what Otto said.
"Fabian, you should learn from Ethan."
Fabian held the wine glass, looking quite guilty indeed. "You're right, Grandpa. Mr. Miller, I'm counting on your guidance."
Ethan's gaze swept over him. There was a deep knowing look in his eyes as he said, "I won't say no to that."
Marina raised her glass at him. "Ethan, I'll be getting surgery tomorrow. Can you come?"
Ethan had rejected her countless times, so she wasn't sure what Ethan's reply would be. Hence, there was a slight awkwardness in her voice and movements.
Olivia was the one performing the surgery, and Ethan wanted to get closer to Olivia.
He couldn't enter the Heath residence as he wished anyway, so he said, "Sure."
Marina was elated. "Ethan, I'll be so reassured to know that you're around."
Fabian looked at Marina's excited expression, feeling like a thousand gnats were gnawing at his heart. The jealousy almost consumed him.
Olivia watched all this quietly. Fabian truly loved Marina to the core, but sadly, Marina only had eyes for Ethan.
It was quite an interesting situation.
Swirling the wine in the glass, Olivia took a sip of the wine.
