Olivia didn't know if she should be amazed at how accurate his intuition was.
"Ethan, what does that have to do with you? I'm not hiding anyone. But even if I was hiding a man, you're in no position to intervene."
Her cold demeanor reminded Ethan of his response back when she asked about his relationship with Marina. He said something similar to brush her question aside.
This time, Olivia gave him the same response.
That was true. They were no longer in a relationship. They weren't even lovers.
The night of passion was something he had to beg for.
If they really wanted to lay everything bare, the truth would only hurt Ethan.
He had no one to blame but himself. That was how he treated Olivia in the past. It was retribution for his actions.
Olivia caressed his face and said, 'Ethan, you should behave while I am still attracted to you physically."
She was like a seductive but venomous snake hissing in his ear. "Or else, I can end this ridiculous relationship whenever I want. What do you think?"
Ethan was at a loss for words. He was the weaker party in this relationship. So, he lost the initiative and his pride. But he was still willing to be part of it.
Ethan smiled in resignation. "But Liv, I didn't seek you out to do it. I need your help for something."
Olivia moved away from him and sat down at the dining table. She supported her face with her arm and said, "What can I do about something the great Ethan Miller can't deal with?"
"You can remove bullets from the heart."
Olivia looked at him. "Who's been injured?"
If it weren't for someone important, Ethan wouldn't be asking her for a favor.
She started to think about everyone Ethan knew. No wonder he had been looking for her in such a hurry.
"It's someone very important."
