Chapter 288
When Ethan left the room, his body was cold.
Even after the long talk with Cecily, that same question kept ringing in his head. “Why is Olivia the
person who’s dead but not me?”
He suddenly recalled the same question he asked Olivia about why the person who was dead was Leia
but not her.
Now, he knew how much those words actually hurt.
Ethan wondered how Olivia put up with them.
He was watching a woman in the hallway. She was staring at the operating room with teary eyes in the
hallway.
At that moment, he thought the woman was a pregnant Olivia.
“Mr. Miller, what are you looking at?” Brent followed Ethan’s gaze only to notice a stranger.
“Send me the surveillance footage in the hospital as long as it has Olivia.” Ethan’s voice was hoarse.
“Yes, sir.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Ethan was getting into the car, he almost tripped.
At this point, even though Ethan didn’t know what the truth was, it was highly possible that Jeff wasn’t
Leia’s murderer.
The deeper he dug into the case, the more complicated it got. The number of people involved and
incidents that were connected was increasing.
Considering that he hadn’t rested for days, he was exhausted. However, he wasn’t sleepy.
He lay against the leather seat, repeating the same question in his head. “If Jeff wasn’t the murderer,
why did I torture Olivia for the past two years?”
The sheer thought of that possibility gave him a sheen of cold sweat.
Olivia was the woman Ethan loved the most, yet he kept hurting her in the most hurtful way possible.
She was scarred for life. Ahead of the final days of her life, she had been struggling to survive a hellish
life.
Hugging his head, he grabbed his hair.
He was repenting for what he had done to her all this time.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Miller. Mrs. Miller will be fine.”
“Yeah, the opponent took Mr. Fordham away, but they didn’t hurt him.
“It’s obvious that he’s their trump card to lure Ms. Fordham out. This means that Ms. Fordham is still
alive.”
Kelvin and Brent supposed that Ethan was getting worried about Olivia.
In truth, Ethan was actually blaming himself.
The guilt was eating him up. He didn’t know what he should do with their relationship when he met
Olivia again.
Someone like him didn’t have the right to take advantage of her.
He was still grabbing his hair when a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
Actually, there was still a way.
It didn’t matter if Leia’s death had anything to do with Jeff.
All Ethan needed to do was to convince Olivia that Jeff was the murderer with proof. That way, she
would return to his side.

His eyes were teeming with obsession.
He thought, “Liv, I will never let you leave my side. Even if you’re going to die, you have to stay in my
sight.”
Brent took a glance at the back seat. The car window happened to reflect the menacing smile across
Ethan’s lips.
Brent thought, “Has Mr. Miller gone mad? His smile is scary!”
“Mr. Miller, those guys in Aldenvine won’t be able to hide for long. It’s a matter of time before we find
them. Don’t worry too
much about it.”
“There’s no need to rush. Just find them,” said Ethan.
Then, he would kill those people.
He would neither let Leia’s murderer off the hook easily nor would he let go of Olivia.
He was aware that his relationship with Olivia would be completely ruined if the truth came to light, and
he would never let that happen.
