Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 1159

Olivia would have two days off, so Ethan took a day's leave too.

The couple slept without setting the alarm. When Olivia opened her eyes, he was still beside her watching her gently.

"Not busy today?"

"I know you're off today, so I made early arrangements. Up already?"

"Yeah. Arrangements, you say?"

"It's a surprise."

She didn't have a clue about his so-called arrangements. After washing up, she followed him to the helicopter.

It was a two-hour journey to reach an island.

"Are you bringing me here for a trip?"

"No." Ethan strode forward holding her hand, leading her to a watchtower.

Gunshots could be heard from the woods while they were on their way.

Soon, she realized his intentions when a kid ran out of the woods.

It was Connor!

Waves of emotions pounded in her the moment she saw him. Tears ran down her cheeks. "It's Connor."

"His training ends today. I brought you here so that you don't have to ask me questions about him. He scored with flying colors. He took first place in jungle training. Remember to reward him later."

Olivia could only make out his silhouette due to the far distance.

He had grown a lot in the past three and a half years. His height seemed to have reached 5'5 even though he hadn't turned nine.

Olivia regularly dreamed of him. Every time she woke up from those dreams, she could picture him crying in the snow.

It took a while for everyone to emerge from the woods. Olivia recognized them.

They were the bullies who had picked on Connor in the past.

To her surprise, they stayed by Connor's side out of will even though it had been years.

Ethan put on a mask over Olivia's face. "Go on. Reward him."
