Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 1385

Olivia kept a straight face and didn't respond to Wayne's probing. Instead, she reminded him, "Mr. Maxwell, this is Aldenvine."

Her expression was calm. She had cried a little when she was visiting Jeff's grave. Her eyes and nose were slightly reddened. Her eyes were also moist from the crying.

She was like a cute little bunny.

But Wayne knew full well that the woman standing before him wasn't a harmless little bunny.

She was the S-ranked assassin, Septem.

Before he arrived in Arlandia, he had already looked through all the intel regarding Olivia.

Although she was an assassin, she never killed innocent people.

All the missions she took were of targets who were completely evil—bullies that preyed on the weak.

Olivia still had kindness in her heart. Or else, she could've killed him at any time while she was with him.

Wayne smelled Olivia's scent. "Why are you afraid, Ms. Fordham? I was just saying hello."

Then, he took a couple of steps back.

"Let's go. I'll escort Ms. Fordham."

Olivia felt like she was a prisoner that was being moved. She walked in the front, but she could feel a piercing glance from behind her.

It was obvious that Ike was the one who was staring daggers at her.

He regretted not killing her back then. He allowed a threat like her to continue to disrupt Wayne's life.

They soon arrived at the bottom of the hill. Olivia took out her car keys.

"Mr. Maxwell, let's part ways here."

Wayne pointed at his fleet of cars.

"I need to talk to you, Ms. Fordham. If you please."

"Sorry, we're not that close."

Olivia was about to get in her car.

Both of them were probing the other. Wayne wouldn't do anything rash so blatantly because they were in Aldenvine, especially when he knew of her identity.

She was still worried because Wayne was an unhinged man. He can't be bound by mere common sense. That was why she remained cautious.
