Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 821

Olivia's voice wasn't loud, but her words were deafening.

Ethan didn't have a response to them.

It was true. He had hurt her so deeply. Why would she ever come back to him? He was being delusional.

A hint of uneasiness flashed on Olivia's face when she noticed Ethan had fallen silent.

"I'm sorry. I lost my composure for a bit."

"No, I think a man like your ex-husband could die a hundred times over, and it still wouldn't be enough to make up for the pain you felt."

"I just hope that I don't meet him ever again," Olivia replied.

Ethan composed himself and said, "I understand now. We have to sneak into Aldenvine without him noticing, right?"

"Yeah. That's why I tried to sneak onto Tobias' ship. It was unfortunate that we encountered pirates. We have to find another way now that the cargo ship is no longer an option.

"Don't worry, Ms. Fordham. Leave it to me."

Olivia had only wanted him to help come up with an idea.

She looked at him in surprise. "Can you really pull it off?"

"I've been to so many countries over the years. I have a few underhanded tricks up my sleeve." Ethan looked at her with a straight face and said, "You can always trust me, Ms. Fordham."

Their eyes met and Olivia could see the sincerity in his gaze.

Ethan wore contact lenses that covered up his eye's original color. They looked yellowish to her.

For some reason, she had a weird feeling in her chest.

Ethan suddenly kneeled on one knee. He raised her hand. There was no levity in his actions, only solemnity and respect. He was like a medieval knight.

"I will never betray you."

It was like a promise that surpassed their relationship as employer and employee.
