Chapter 845
Ethan was feeling better after two more days, but his coughing didn't get any better.
Since they were reaching Aldenvine soon, Kelvin and Brent alighted from the ship in secret.
Firstly, they needed to deliver the contracts signed by Ethan back and handle some stuff in the company.
Secondly, Ethan needed to make early arrangements so that Olivia wouldn't suspect him after alighting from the
ship.
The days passed by peacefully. Joshua brought meals to Olivia as usual, and nothing went wrong.
It was only when the sun rose today that something unusual happened.
Someone knocked on Ethan's door. It wasn't time for housekeeping, so he wondered if it was Olivia.
His expression changed as he was still in the middle of a meeting. He hadn't changed yet!
He motioned for Joshua to check on the incoming guest.
"There's no one." He opened the door, only to realize that there was no one.
A box was placed in front of the door. "Weird. Is this a little gift from the crew?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCurious, he opened the box. He was so surprised by the picture in it that he almost dropped the box.
"Mr. Miller, this is bad! Mrs. Miller and Ms. Alicia are in trouble!"
Ethan, who was in the middle of an online meeting, went offline at that exclamation.
He removed his earphones and turned the laptop off.
He turned to look at Joshua. "What's wrong?"
Joshua strode over with the box. "Look."
There were two pictures and a rabbit plushie.
One of the pictures was Alicia in her pajamas. They didn’t know what she was seeing, but her eyes were watery.
The other picture was a tied-up Olivia on a pole. It was the exact same thing that happened to that woman that
night!
"Damn it!" thought Ethan, who was on the verge of losing himself.
Back then, he let that woman off because she was a woman. He thought that she would learn her lesson, but she
was now targeting Olivia instead!
Judging from this, it seemed like the woman had a death wish.
"Get the men and come with me."
"Yes, sir."
Ethan didn't even have the time to put on makeup. He simply covered his face with a mask and took his coat before
heading out of the room.
He found his way to that room based on his memories. It seemed like the other party was waiting for him because
the door was left ajar.
He kicked the door open to reveal the empty room.
There was no sight of Olivia.
"It's empty."
A letter was left on the table. Opening it revealed the fluid handwriting that wrote, "Do you like my present?"
There was also a plumpy kiss mark on it.
The second part read, "If you wanna know where they are, come to the party."
The mention of the party almost drove Ethan to insanity.
Olivia might not be aware of it, but he knew what kind of place that party was.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere were a lot of underhanded things regarding the ship, and the party topped the list.
One of the programs was an auction. Sometimes, antiques and valuable items were sold; sometimes, the sold
items were unique-people!
They came from different countries, with different ages and genders. They looked either peculiar, gorgeous, or
special.
No matter who they were, as long as they were sent on stage, they became an item on sale to have their values
judged by the guests.
Ethan didn't expect such a thing to happen so soon after Kelvin and Brent left!
"What should we do, Mr. Miller?"
Ethan crumpled the letter. His voice was cold and merciless. "Contact the owner of the party to release them."
"But the owner has always been a mysterious one. They've never let anyone pull strings with them."
"Is that so?" An immensely cold aura loomed over Ethan." Ruin their ship and business then. Let everyone die with
them."
Joshua was so scared that his face went pale. It was scary to watch Ethan acting this way.
