Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 1277

Olivia didn't take it.

"I'm a doctor. Do you think I'd recklessly swallow pills that someone gave me? I wanted to leave, anyway.

"If you take me out of here, I won't struggle; I'll only feel grateful to you. It doesn't matter much whether I take the pill or not."

Ike's expression darkened. "That's not a decision for you to make."

With that, he tried to force the pill into Olivia's mouth. "I won't have mercy on you just because you're a woman.

"Dr. Ophelia, if I were you, I'd behave and take the pill. At least I don't have to feel the pain."

He pinned Olivia down, cruelly strangling her. Of course, Olivia struggled with all her might.

"Ike, are you there?" Alan's voice rang out at the door.

Ike covered Olivia's mouth, warning her not to make any noise.

"Yes. What's the matter?"

Olivia had brought weapons with her, but she wouldn't use them unless she was forced to.

So, she could only pretend to be a weak woman. If not, if she was found out, she wouldn't be able to escape this place for real.

By the looks of it, Alan wasn't aware of Ike's plan. Ike had intended to quietly kill Olivia.

Of course, Olivia wouldn't let go of this chance. She bit Ike's finger right away.

Ike was a firm man, so even when Olivia bit him so hard that his finger bled, he remained unaffected.

"I'm feeling a little tired today, so I'll be resting for a while. Go and keep watch for me. There are so many important figures here; we can't afford to make any mistakes."

"I just wanted to ask you… Never mind. Rest well, then."

Seeing that Alan was about to leave, Olivia grew anxious. She kicked over the coffee table nearby, which also had some fruits on it.

The fruits on the platter scattered and rolled across the floor. The mugs on the table were shattered as well.

Alan, who had already taken a few steps away, suddenly turned around. "Ike, are you okay? What happened?"

Ike glared viciously at Olivia. He closed his fingers tightly around her throat, intending to strangle her to death right then and there.

By the looks of it, Ike had never intended to let her leave this place alive.
