When they got back to her room, Olivia was still thinking about Jack. But Ethan was clearly thinking
about something else.
"Is there no news about Jack yet?"
Ethan snapped back to his senses. "What did you say?"
Olivia held his hand and declared, "I don't like Wayne, not even a little."
Looking at Olivia's determined gaze, Ethan sighed. "I know. I'm just..."
Ethan was just insecure. Since the day he met Olivia, he knew that she was a great and talented
woman.
She would be the center of attention no matter where she went. In the past, he tried to hide her at
home so no one could see her.
He made her light grow dim when he decided to make her his personal property. No one else saw how
special she was after that.

than before, but their relationship could never go back to what it used to be.
Olivia knew that Ethan was a very possessive man. So, she tried to explain further.
"I went to the graveyard to visit Madam Eugenia's and my dad's graves. I swear I didn't know he would
be there. If I knew, I wouldn't have gone. He took my keys from me and forced me to get in his car."
Ethan drew her into his arms and smiled in resignation. "Alright, Liv. I understand. Why wouldn't I know
how you would act? No one understands each other more than us."
Olivia rubbed her face against his chest. "That's right."
She was a little distracted as well. "This is not the time to be talking about this. How is Jack? It's been
so long. There must be some news by now."
Ehthan called Kelvin's phone. "What's the situation? Where is he?"
"Mr. Miller, we followed him all the way, but he was intentionally hiding from us."
"He's still alive?"
"Yes. He seems to be injured, but nothing life-threatening."
Olivia and Ethan were both relieved.
"Thank God he's okay."
"Then he couldn't have gone far. Find him quickly."
"Yes, sir."
Jack had been under Ethan's care for some time, but Jack still held Ethan partially responsible for
Kurt's death. He could never completely forget that. That was why he took this chance to get away.
"Ethan caressed Olivia's face. "Does that put you at ease?"
"Yeah."
Olivia took off her coat. Wayne had been lying on top of her in the car. His scent was on her coat, and
she didn't like that.
"I'll take a shower." She patted him on the head. "Don't worry. You're the only one for me."

Ethan heard the sounds of water flowing in the bathroom. Then, he exited the room glumly and lit a
cigarette.
When Olivia changed into a new set of clothes and exited the room, she saw Linus standing outside
her door.
"What's wrong, Uncle Linus?"
Olivia looked at him. She thought he would be entertaining the important guest in the house. Why
would he be here?
Linus felt a little awkward. "Wayne doesn't want any other doctor to tend to his injuries. He said you're
the one who scratched his face. So, you should take responsibility for your actions."
Olivia pursed her lips. "Do I have to go?"
Wayne's identity was too unique. She didn't want to have anything to do with him.
Linus remained calm. "Sure. You don't have to go if you don't want to. I'll come up with some excuse."
"Uncle Linus, why did he come here?"
"From what I heard, it seems like he wants to discuss an international business deal worth billions."
