Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 148

Chapter 147

Madam Burgess hastily gave Ethan a quick rundown of how she found Connor. Ethan frowned even deeper. “You didn’t se anyone other than him?”

“No. When I found Master Connor, he was crying. He was also holding a hydrogen balloon in his hand. Oh, right, he also kep calling Mama.”

“Mama?” Ethan thought.

Connor had never been willing to call Marina Mama, so the person he was calling for couldn’t have been her. It could only b Olivia.

Brent, who had already brought men to investigate the scene, reported to Ethan right away. “Mr. Miller, I’ve checked the surveillance.

“Ms. Fordham was the one who sent Master Connor back. She purposefully left Master Connor on Madam Burgess‘ way home from grocery shopping.

“That way, Madam Burgess would notice him.”

“Was there anyone else besides her?” Ethan asked.

“No.”

“Keep investigating.”

Ethan was even more confused now. Could it be just like Marina said, that Olivia had hired people to kidnap Connor?

If she wanted to threaten him, why would she send the child back without even a request?

Ethan quickly denied that possibility. The child was still wearing the emerald necklace she gave him.

She could’ve harmed Connor that night. She didn’t have to get people to kidnap Connor at all.

It wasn’t her.

So why didn’t Connor’s kidnappers harm her or the child?

No matter how long he thought about it, Ethan couldn’t make sense of it. He decided to call Olivia up to ask about it.

When he dialed her number, he found that Olivia’s phone was turned off.

Ethan sat up despite his illness. What did Olivia mean by this?

He got someone to track Olivia’s location, but he soon found that she never returned to the apartment. She didn’t even contact Everly.

Instead, he found that she had just withdrawn a sum of money.

Was she threatened by someone?
