Chapter 940
Ethan looked at Henry, who was as stubborn as he used to be. He didn't make fun of his naivete. He was still new to
being in love. He would only mature after going through some hardships.
These experiences weren't something Henry would just listen to if someone else told him. He had to experience
them himself.
Ethan didn't mock his arrogance because karma was fair to all. Henry would eventually experience what he had
coming.
Besides, Ethan already sensed that Henry treated Everly differently. She clearly wasn't just another lover to him like
he claimed.
It was fine. Love would eventually punish him for his lies.
As he was talking, Henry looked at the video footage again. In the video, Everly was sitting on the beach and looking
at the sea. She looked more emotionally stable than before.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt seemed like Ethan's suggestion was right. She needed her friend and those children to heal her.
"There's still a lot of trouble back at home. I'll let her stay on the island for three more months before bringing her
home."
Henry was angered by Everly's miscarriage. He had done some reckless things for her sake. His arranged marriage
partner was still in the ICU.
The woman came from an affluent family too. Her family thought Henry was making too big of a fuss for a lover.
He even lost his moral high ground.
The arranged marriage was called off, and the two families became enemies. Even Henry's grandfather was
alerted. He, too, felt like Henry was overdoing it. He wanted to take the chance to get rid of Everly.
That was why Henry agreed to Ethan's proposal.
"Three months? Maybe you love her more than you realize," Ethan said with a smile.
Such a huge incident would take the Synder family way longer than three months to deal with. Even three years
probably wouldn't be enough.
"I heard that you were extremely cruel to that woman. She's a total cripple now."
"She deserved it." Henry's voice was filled with ice-cold cruelty when he talked about that woman. "So, do you plan
to let Olivia live on the island for the rest of her life?"
"I said it before. I'm giving her complete freedom."
The Ethan that Henry used to know would never do that.
Everly started to recover with Olivia's care and the treatment from the doctors on the island. Even if it would be
hard for her to get pregnant in the future, the trauma of the miscarriage had become more manageable for her.
Everly was an optimistic person, but Olivia often saw her sitting on a bench alone and spacing out while looking at
the sea.
"What's on your mind?" Olivia asked, sitting down beside her.
"I'm thinking if I had accepted Ethan's offer to work at his company, I would never have met that bastard."
"Eve, it's all in the past. Let's stop dwelling on it."
Everly caressed her flat stomach and said, "I was even ready to be a single mother. Why was fate so cruel? Why

She wiped her tears and added, "It's fine as well. If the baby were born, my life would forever be intertwined with
his. I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore."
Olivia wrapped her arms around Everly gently. "Eve, we should look to the future. Well find our own happiness."
Everly scanned her surroundings. After she was sure no one else was around, she whispered, "When are we
leaving?"
Olivia put up five of her fingers.
"Five more days?"
"Yeah. My friend needs some more time to make preparations."
Everly nodded. "Okay! I'll follow you to the ends of the Earth."
She knew that Henry only sent her here to hide from trouble. She heard that the Synder family had already taken
notice of her. They wanted to get rid of all the women Henry had before he got married.
That was why Henry agreed to send her to the island. He would bring her back after the incident blew over.
She wouldn't be able to escape then. This was her only chance.
