Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 176

Chapter 176

Olivia’s burp was loud in the silent room before stillness inflated in the air.

She didn’t expect herself to give the game away that quickly.

Feeling awkward, she looked at Ethan. “I can explain.”

She blurted that in the heat of the moment, making matters worse.

She observed his expression carefully only to realize that his face was free from annoyance.

Worry sat upon his brows instead.

She thought, “Did I misread his expression? He resents me to his bones. Why would he be worried about me?”

“Have more if you’re hungry.” He gave her a spoonful.

She was confused as she thought, “Does he think that I burp because I’m hungry?”

In the end, Olivia was stuffed when the meal was actually made for Ethan.

“Enough. I’m full.” She could feel her stomach bursting.

He frowned. “You’re all skin and bones. How could you eat only this little?”

Then, he fed her another spoonful of lasagna. Her cheeks were puffed like a chipmunk.

At this moment, a woman in spectacles opened the door. “Mr. Miller, we need a signature from you for this doc-”

Never in her life has she imagined herself to witness such a scene.

The solemn Ethan, who abhorred contact with women, was hugging and feeding Olivia.

His humility put the secretary in a trance.

Olivia swallowed the food in a hurry and choked on it. Her face turned red instantly. “Water …”

Ethan gave her a glass of water. “How could a grown–up choke on food?”
