Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 601

Chapter 601

Ethan strode up to Olivia, pulling her into his embrace right away. “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine. I happened to see someone getting bullied, so I helped out.”

After explaining, Olivia looked at Mara. “I can show the receipt for the dress, and I also have a photo of the dress hanging in the closet at home. But Ms. Hudson, what evidence can you provide?”

Seeing that Olivia was getting serious, Mara had no choice but to keep insisting. “My manager was the one who borrowed it. She has the receipt.”

“Alright, then call your manager over. Ask her where she borrowed it from. She can help support your claim too.”

“S-She just left for some urgent business. I can’t get her here, can I?”

“So, you don’t have any evidence, and you also falsely accused someone and lied about the price. This is extortion, isn’t it?” Mara said nervously, “Extortion? Quit trying to slander me! Fine, I can’t afford to mess with someone high and mighty like you, Mrs. Miller. I’ll just take it as a loss.”

Mara didn’t dare to go up against Ethan. So, she found an excuse and fled the scene.

If this went on, they might figure out that she was wearing a counterfeit. If they wanted to get to the bottom of this incident, she would be done for.

Olivia looked at the man at the side, whose head was lowered. “Be more careful next time. If you get into trouble like this in the future, don’t give in so easily.”

“Thank you very much, Miss. You were a huge help.”

After thanking her, the janitor hobbled away.

Olivia sighed silently as she watched him leave. There were too many people like him. She could help them once, but she couldn’t help them forever.

Looking away, she was about to leave with Ethan. But then, she noticed that Ethan was still staring at the janitor.

“Do you pity him, Ethan?”

Ethan had a complicated expression on his face as he nodded.

“Let’s go back.”

“Okay.”

After the fuss, Olivia didn’t want to be the center of attention. So, she left hand-in-hand with Ethan.

When they passed by Kelvin, Ethan whispered an order to him before getting into the car.

“Understood, Mr. Miller.” Kelvin hastily left.

Olivia paused in her steps, looking at him. “What’s the matter?”
