NovelEnglishChapter 1356
Olivia was aware of why this cto be, but when she heard someone else's daughter call Ethan
"Dad", she still felt a little weird.
That was why she couldn't completely accept Ethan.
There were too many grudges between them.
Even if those grudges were removed, many wounds would remain.
Every single wound was a reminder of her tragic past.
Other than Marina and Erina, there was also Leia to consider.
Olivia and Ethan had been quite intimate with each other recently, and she felt a fire burning between
them.
However, when Erina called Ethan "Dad", Olivia suddenly felt like cold water was poured onto her.
It cooled off her hot passion.
"Well, I don't think I can ctoday.
I have something to attend to right now.
I'll pick you up when I have time.

Obviously, Ethan didn't want to have anything to do with Marina.
Even if he had to eat, he would dine alone with Erina.
Erina sounded a little pitiful.
She knew that Marina was the person who truly wanted to see Ethan.
"Ms.
Vanessa said that Mom can have surgery tomorrow.
We're having a gathering tonight, so please cover, okay?" Ethan soon gave in.
"Alright, I'll cover after work." Olivia knew very well why Ethan had given in.
For the past few nights, Ethan had failed to get over the wall.
Last night, Mason had personally brought smen along to block the entrance.
They stood under the roof, watching the desperate Ethan get in by climbing over the wall.
The person who had leaked the information to Ethan was stationed somewhere else.
Ethan had done it out of desperation, and he was caught in the act.
Mason was drinking stea as he looked lazily at Ethan.
"What are you doing so late at night? Physical training?" Ethan blushed despite himself.
This incident would be quite humiliating if word of it got out.
After being lectured by Mason, Ethan was escorted away.
After Ethan went home, he made a video call to Olivia that lasted for two hours.
The call went on until Olivia fell asleep and her phone ran out of battery and turned off.
When Ethan learned that Olivia was here, he wouldn't let this great chance slip by.
"Mom, Dad agreed to cover." Erina smiled in excitement.
Marina touched her face.
"Oh no, I can't see him like this." With that, Marina went about to dress herself up properly.
Olivia wasn't interested in that, so she went out the door.
In the snowy scene, Fabian was holding a cigarette in his hand.
He looked quite troubled.
"Mr. Fabian," Olivia said calmly.
Fabian looked at her.
He hastily put out the cigarette as he walked toward her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What are the chances of success for the surgery tomorrow?" "Ms.
Carlton has a strong will to survive.
I thought that she wouldn't be able to endure it, but now, I can see that she's good at persisting.
"Her leg is recovering well, so there's a very low chance of failure," Olivia replied honestly.
Fabian had a dazed look on his face.
"Is that so...?" "What's the matter, Mr. Fabian? Aren't you happy that Ms.
Carlton will be recovering as soon as possible?" Fabian suddenly took out a check and handed it to
Olivia.
The check already bore his signature and seal, but the amount was blank.
"Vanessa, if you're willing to make a deal with me, this check will be yours." "By the looks of it, you're
not trying to pay the medical bills ahead of time." Fabian lowered his voice.
"Vanessa, if the surgery tomorrow ends in failure, this will be your consultation fee." Olivia was a little
surprised.
She didn't expect to encounter so many weirdos this year.
She had just met two of them at the Heath residence, but now, another one had appeared in the
Carlton residence.
By the looks of it, this man was truly fond of Marina.
He liked Marina so much that he wanted to keep her trapped for life.
