Chapter 637
Olivia fell silent. She felt lost about her future.
She felt like she was a priest who had attained enlightenment and had lost her desires, love, and even hatred.
She agreed when Ethan asked her to study medicine, but she didn’t feel strongly about it.
She didn’t really care if she studied medicine or business. Anything was fine.
The lack of a response didn’t anger Ethan.
He nibbled on her ear and said seriously, “Liv, I’m not the same. In my eyes, you’re my past and my future.”
After he got dressed, Ethan kissed Olivia on the forehead and left. Olivia watched him leave with Snowball in her hands.
She was expressionless, and her heart was calm. She didn’t reject Ethan, but she didn’t love him either.
She counted the days until they would be leaving Aldenvine. There was nothing else for her there.

The flowers on the table were changed every day, and his ring never coff his finger. His eyes were filled with his love for
her.
The day before their departure, Ethan hugged Olivia and asked, “Liv, is there anything else you want to do in Aldenvine? We won’t be coming back in a long tafter we leave.”
Olivia answered without hesitance, “Not really.”
There wasn’t even a hint of reluctance in her voice.
Although that was what Ethan had wanted, he felt a little uneasy. He didn’t know why he felt that way, but he quickly dismissed the feeling.
He reassured himself that everything would be better.
Ethan figured that Olivia would grow accustomed to her current life after a couple of years. And when the danger had passed, they could be reunited with their kids, too.
It started snowing again on the day they were leaving. Madam Burgess wiped her tears away as she said her goodbyes.
Olivia handed Madam Burgess a check that she had prepared in advance and said, “Take care, Madam Burgess.”
“You take care of yourself, too, Mrs. Miller.”
Madam Burgess placed the check in her pocket and held Olivia’s hands. “I hope you and Mr. Miller will be happy together.”
“Thanks.”
The car started moving. Olivia gazed at the slowly shrinking villa through the rearview mirror.
She heard it was the house she lived in with Ethan when they were newly wedded. Surprisingly, she didn’t feel a shred of sadness as she left the place behind.
Madam Burgess, dressed in a thick down jacket, stood at the intersection and waved goodbye. After a while, she was covered with snow.
Olivia wondered if her family would be waving her goodbye like that if they were still alive.
In the VIP waiting lounge of the airport, Olivia put on her headphones and read a magazine while eating.
Olivia noticed that her stomach pains becmore frequent. So, she stopped eating overly spicy foods and tried to keep herself well-fed.
She woke up too early in the morning and didn’t have tto eat breakfast. So, her stomach was throbbing in pain.
“What’s wrong?” Ethan noticed the flash of pain that appeared on her face.

Ethan recalled that Olivia did mention that she had sgastric issues last year. “Does it hurt a lot?”
They were about to board the plane, so Olivia didn’t want to inconvenience Ethan. So, she shook her head.
“Not really. It’s just a minor discomfort. I’ll feel better after eating.”
Ethan handed Olivia a glass of water and said, “Drink swater. You’ll feel better.”
“Okay.”
As they were lining up to board the plane, a woman yelled from behind, “Are you really abandoning me, Ethan?”
Olivia tried to look back, but Ethan stopped her.
“I think someone’s calling your name.”
“No, you must’ve misheard.”
There seemed to be a woman in the wheelchair who was crying and trying to get to Ethan, but someone stopped her.
“Is she calling out for you?”
Ethan replied emotionlessly, “No. Let’s go.”
