As he slowly walked toward her, Olivia’s heartbeat quickened.
When Ethan’s hand touched her back, she felt as if everything just exploded.
She had goosebumps all over her. Fear spread from the spot he touched to her entire body.
She suppressed her panic, trying her best to look calm.
“What are you doing?”
“You seem to be scared of me, Liv.”
Olivia gulped. Then, she said in a cold voice, “It’s disgust, not fear. Ethan, has anyone ever told you
that you’re annoying?
“Since you’re going to marry Marina soon, stop messing around with me!”

He whispered in Olivia’s ear, “Liv, you’re very nervous.
It wasn’t a question; it was a statement.

With that, he stood up. His gaze fell upon the vitamin bottle, which stood out on the bedside table.
He looked away after a splitting second.
Hearing the soft click of the door closing, Olivia finally let out a sigh of relief.
She wiped the sweat on her forehead. She was even more convinced now that she wasn’t suited to be
the bad guy.

Ethan had personally selected every single worker’s documents. So, he vaguely remembered each of
them.
Mona was dumbfounded. She didn’t expect Ethan to remember a minor character like her.
“Yes. Ms. Fordham can’t move her hand well. So, she asked me to take care of her after she noticed
how attentive I am.”
A cold gleam flashed across Ethan’s eyes. “Come with me.”
Mona was scared to death. She didn’t know what Ethan was planning, so she had no choice but to
follow him.
Ethan would come over every day, but she was still scared of this man who never looked them in the
