Even After Death

Chapter 101

Olivia sensed something. She raised her head to look at the window above her.

The sweater on Connor made him look like a little polar bear.

He rested his palms and cheek against the window, overflowing with cuteness.

The good soundproofing blocked his voice from seeping through the window. But she could tell that he was saying hi to her.

His adorable action appeased the displeasure in her as she smiled and waved at him.

Ethan happened to witness the scene at that moment. It felt like he had returned to the time he first met her.

That morning, the ponytail girl was waving at him with a smile as dazzling as the sun.

Ten years had passed, yet he could remember that smile vividly. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

He pulled his senses back

Olivia would not come to Collington Cove alone. There could only be one reason for this. She came here for the Fordham residence.

Ethan hung up the call. Brent reported the slaughterhouse incident to Ethan.

Ethan shoved the ashtray onto the ground, thinking, “Marina is getting nosier day by day.”

“Get the car ready,” he instructed coldly.

Olivia’s cheeks felt cold because of the breeze.

She didn’t want to stay in a room that was specially built for Marina.

She’d rather stay outside in the cold.

After a shower, Marina headed downstairs with a robe and shower cap. There was a scrape on her neck.

The manicurist she hired arrived at that time.

She rested on the white leather couch.

Marina enjoyed her pedicure, relishing in the top–notch service.

Olivia returned to the living room. Marina, who resented her to the bone, wasn’t as arrogant as before.

Marina wore an icy expression. “I can give you Fordham residence, but I have two conditions too. “

Olivia frowned. “You want a negotiation?”

“Earning a living is tough. I think it’s reasonable for me to have two conditions from you when I’m offering a five–million- worth house”

“Fire away,” Olivia prompted impatiently

“First, leave Aldenvine. Second, disfigure yourself”

Olivia questioned back, “Are you out of your mind? Do you know what you’re talking about?”

Marina tossed a fruit knife onto the carpet casually “I want you to stay away from Ethan

“You have something on me, but I have your father’s weakness. Do you want the to expose his deests to the public

Olivia’s face slightly changed, giving Marina a sense of triumph

Marina continued, “We’re no less different from each other. None of us are innocent with clean hands.

“Olivia Fordham, I want you to ruin your face and leave Aldenvine in exchange for the house.”

Other than for Fondham residence, Olivia was here for something else.

Atarina was unaware of her terminal illness, so she need not waste her time on these matters.

but who else could it be if it wasn’t Marina?

White Olivia was absorbed in her contemplation, Marina motioned at the maid next to her.

A maid with a built stature kicked olivia by the calf from behind, causing her to get on her knees.

The maid unsheathed a knife “Here, Ms. Fordham ”

Olivia stared at the knife, which reflected her frowning face. “Marina Carlton, I haven’t agreed to it yet.”

The maid did not care he wore a contorted smile. “Ms. Fordham, this is your only option.

“Don’t worry. Ms.

Olivia attempted to free herself, but the maid was too strong.

“As Fordham, since you can’t bring yourself to do it, allow me to have the honor to help you.” The maid then flung the knife toward her face
