The village wasn't that big. Olivia basically knew everyone who lived here. The two people in front of them weren't married or dating.
The woman's name was Isabella. She was the man's sister-in-law. Her husband fell off a cliff two years ago when he was gathering herbs. He was paralyzed and lost the ability to have sex.
Isabella was probably too lonely, which was why she was cheating on her husband with his younger brother.
Cheating was very commonplace in the city. If it was discovered, the couple would just get a divorce.
But divorce wasn't a very popular concept in the village. If Isabella was found out, she would be done for.
They were afraid of being found out. That was why they came to a place like the fields. At this hour, everyone would have gone home. Ethan and Olivia were outliers.
Ethan spoke up, "Liv …"
Before he could utter another word, Olivia covered his mouth. Ethan was new to the village and didn't know about its customs.
If Isabella was discovered, she would probably commit suicide before her family could beat her to death. She was still very young. She was still in her 20s and had a warm personality. Olivia didn't want her to lose her life like that.
Olivia grabbed Ethan's hand and led him to hide behind a patch of corn.
She whispered, "Don't talk."
Ethan nodded.
Isabella's voice rang out again. "Aaron, I'm still worried. Please go take a look."
The two of them came out of the field and scanned their surroundings. Olivia didn't want to be seen, so she pushed Ethan down and lay on his chest.
They were sitting on the corn that she had harvested. Their bodies were concealed by a stack of corn stalks.
"I told you that you were being paranoid. There's no one around. Come on, Isabella, let's do it. I'm very pent up."
"You bad, bad man. You tire me out every time."
