Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255

Olivia and Dr. Scott confirmed the time. The surgery would be held on that Friday. Holding an umbrella, Olivia watched the rain as she dialed Everly’s number.

Everly sounded exhausted. As soon as the call went through, she started complaining.

“Goodness, I’ve been staying up for two nights in a row. What’s wrong with the new boss? What a workaholic.” -Covering her mouth, Olivia chuckled. “I remember you telling me how handsome he was just a few days ago.”

“So what if he is? He’s not my boyfriend, anyway. I shouldn’t have switched jobs. It wasn’t too bad to laze around in my previous company.”

After Everly broke up, Josh went to her previous company every day to beg for forgiveness. In her fury, Everly resigned from her job.

She didn’t want to work for people anymore. Declining Ethan’s offer, she went to work at an outstanding real estate company. As a result, she cursed her boss every day for being nitpicky. He was extremely harsh toward his employees.

“By the way, Eve, are you free this Friday?”

“Nope. The exploiter wants me to go on a business trip with him to Belford. What’s up?”

Olivia knew that Everly strived for strength. She seemed to be cursing her boss, but in reality, she wanted to make it big in life.

She was currently in a period of growth in her job. Of course, she would have to focus on work.

Olivia swallowed the words she was about to say. “Nothing, I just wanted to invite you to a meal. Maybe next time.”

“Sure. We have all the time in the world, anyway. I’ll bring back local snacks from Belford for you, Liv.”

Everly didn’t say much before hanging up. She was asked to revise the proposal again.

Smiling, Olivia bade her goodbye.

Olivia looked at the blurry view in the rain. Reaching out, she felt the raindrops on her palm.

The cool moisture gave her a sense of reality. She felt like she was truly alive.

Like a child with no home to return to, Olivia crouched under the tree. She hugged her knees as she looked at the busy street.

The world was so huge, but she couldn’t find anyone to sign the letter for her.

Drops of rain rolled down her umbrella, splashing into the little puddle in front of her.

A huge screen opposite her showed the venue for Ethan’s engagement ceremony.

It was a cherry field, and cherry blossoms were in full bloom.

Ethan would be welcoming his bride in his suit and leather shoes.
