Chapter 756
With trembling hands, Ethan picked up the wedding ring and the letter. The act of opening a letter was so simple,
but his hands kept trembling as if he had Parkinson’s.
Brent said in a low voice, “Mr. Miller, let me do it.”
It didn’t matter that much whether he read the letter or not. Everyone had already guessed the ending.
Still, Ethan took out the letter in terror and agony. The familiar handwriting came into sight.
In the past, she would write him letters in secret when he was out on business trips. She didn’t know the address, so
she would put the words she wanted to say into a bottle and then bury it in the garden.
After he discovered it by accident, every time he came back, the first thing he would do was to go to that secret
hole and dig around to check if there was new mail.
Back then, she wrote like an adorable teenage girl. But this letter was different. Not many words were written on it,

“Ethan, it’s too painful to live. I don’t want to hold on anymore. Farewell. I only desire the sweet release of death.
Death has done us part.
“Finally, Olivia.”
Tears welled up in Ethan’s eyes, and it began to drizzle.
Drops of water dripped onto the letter. No one could tell if it was Ethan’s tears or the rain from the sky.
Holding the letter to his heart, Ethan slowly got on his knees. He mumbled, “Liv, I was wrong Come back. Don’t die.
I should be the one to die instead.”
He gripped the ring tightly in his hand. She had once sold and thrown away this ring, but in the end, he still
managed to find it and bring it back.
He would never forget Olivia’s smile when she put on the ring.
“After I put on this ring, I’ll be your woman. The rest of my life is yours, hubby.”
In the period when he gave her the cold shoulder, she never once took the ring off. After she lost weight,
he even had the ring adjusted a size smaller. Now, the ring had returned to its owner.
She gave her farewells and said that death had done them part.
How cruel.
They were so deeply in love in the past, but now, they ended up being separated forever.
Ethan kissed Olivia’s ring. Then, he took off his ring as well. He placed the two rings neatly together,
He slowly got up. Staggering, he walked toward the beach.
His mind was filled with images of Olivia’s face.
“Ethan, don’t leave me alone. I’m scared of the dark.
“Let me go. Please don’t treat me like this.”
Ethan mumbled, “Liv, don’t be afraid. I’m coming to keep you company right now.”
It was very dark at the bottom of the ocean. She must be terrified.

She chose to leave this way, so he would go the same way to keep her company.
He thought, “Liv, I told you. Even in death, I won’t let you go. Let us die together, alright? With me around, you
wouldn’t have to be scared of the dark anymore.”
The ocean breeze blew toward him, bringing with it a hazy mist. The surface of the sea was fogged over, just like
his chaotic life. He had already lost direction.
He continued to think, “Liv, did you think of me when you left? Be it love or hate, we’ll leave it all behind. From
today onward, we’ll spend eternity together.”
Kelvin and Brent sensed that something was off. They hastily stopped Ethan.
“Mr. Miller, please calm down. You still have Master Connor. You can’t die.”
“Yes, Master Connor has already lost his mother. If you die, he won’t have a father either.”
The word “father” pierced Ethan’s heart. He recalled his childhood.
But he only hesitated for a moment before making his choice.
“Tell Mom that I’m sorry I can’t be around for her anymore. Tell her to take good care of Connor.”
With that, Ethan flung himself into the sea without consideration.
“Mr. Miller!”
