Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78

The air froze from the tension. Chris interfered before the situation worsened. “Mr. Miller, we’re all happy that Mrs. Miller is healthy.”

Refusing to waste any effort on Olivia, Ethan looked away and said emotionlessly, “You’d better behave.”

In an outburst, she let out her pent–up emotions and threw her bowl of soup at the man who thought he was always right.” Behave? Fuck you!” 1

He was the one who pursued her and asked for her hand in marriage. His possessiveness forced her to give up on her future and freedom. Not only did he land her in the current mess, he dared to claim that she was faking her illness.

The soup dripped from Ethan’s tailored, luxurious suit. Seeing red, he gave her a death glare and marched up to her.

Sensing a huge fight, Chris jumped in and blocked Ethan with an anxious look. “Mr. Miller, the soup must have slipped from her hand. Mrs. Miller, say something!”

She straightened herself and replied flatly, “Yeah, it slipped.”

Chris sounded relieved. “Mr. Miller, you heard her. She…”

She boldly added, “If it hadn’t slipped from my hand, it would have hit you right at the back of your head, you asshole!”

Chris was speechless. Olivia was adding fuel to the fire.

Ethan shoved Chris aside and went up to hiss at her through gritted teeth, “Olivia Fordham!”

Fuming, she grabbed a bottle of pills from the headboard and jumped out of bed angrily. Then, she tried to smash the bottle on Ethan’s head. “Fucking bastard! I’ll fight you!”

Ethan effortlessly caught her weak hands and pinned them behind her back.

Defeatedin no time, she was red in the face, and her eyes were misty. Ethan felt complicated when he saw this, and he felt more pain than resentment.
