Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 1654

"Zero," Ike replied without hesitation.

Wayne shot daggers at him with his eyes. "Do you have to tamper my confidence like this? I'm your boss."

"Ike doesn't mean it that way, Mr. Maxwell. According to our sources, Ms. Fordham brought along her youngest daughter, Willow. She hasn't been able to speak ever since she was born. How could she call you 'Dad'?"

Alan hurriedly spoke for his brother because he knew Wayne was going to hold a grudge again otherwise.

Ike once tried to murder Olivia in the country before this, and he was severely punished when Wayne found out.

Wayne tipped his cigarette. Despite his tall stature, he looked lonely in the cloud of smoke. "It hasn't been that long since I last met her. Why do I miss her so much?"

Alan facepalmed upon hearing the muttering.

Just what kind of spell did Olivia cast on Wayne that he was so hopelessly in love with her?

On the other hand, Willow was preparing to lift the curse off Jacqueline.

Ethan had never witnessed such a thing. The scene was unpleasant even for a man like him, who had been to death's doorstep.

Willow was holding a peculiar bell—the Cursed Bell.

As Willow lightly shook it, Jacqueline opened her mouth. A worm soon squirmed out of her mouth.

Before Ethan could get a good glimpse of it, Willow pinched and kept it in a magical bottle, which was a present from Wendy.

Jacqueline's heart didn't hurt anymore, but she couldn't help gagging. It was disgusting!

"Jacqueline, how do you feel? Better?" Alexander asked worriedly.

"I feel like throwing up. It's disgusting."

No one could ever stand the fact that a fat worm had just crawled out of their mouth.

Olivia assured, "She should feel better after a thirty-minute break. Now, it's your turn."

"I can't break the curse right now." His brows furrowed. "Jacqueline's not doing well. It's risky. Lifebond Curse is a dangerous curse to begin with. It's the most reactive curse too. She needs to rest for two days. Then, I can do it."
