Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 195

Chapter 194

Chris and Otto’s unrelenting barrage of words gave Ethan no chance for rebuttals.

Moreover, his marriage with Marina was practically set in stone.

Marina knew that Ethan’s feelings for Olivia were complicated recently.

She grasped her sleeve tightly. She was afraid that Ethan would go back on his word.

Ethan raised his glass and said calmly, “Okay.”

Marina sighed in relief. A smile reappeared on her face. “Gramps, dad. I told you that Ethan would not let me down.”

Otto looked at Ethan deeply and said, “It better stay that way.”

Chris also added, “Olivia is Chloe’s daughter. She can be considered part of the Carlton family. We’ll take good care of her if you don’t. I’ll take care of things on her end. I don’t want to see you contacting her starting tomorrow.”

Ethan’s fingers tightened around his glass. His eyes darkened. But he didn’t say anything.

He originally thought he was only telling Olivia that he wouldn’t go home because he was angry. He didn’t expect it to come true. Now, he couldn’t even go home even if he wanted to.

He was stuck in the Carlton residence. He was forced to sleep in the same room as Marina.

It was getting late. Marina got out of the bath and changed into silky and revealing pajamas. She slowly walked toward Ethan.

Ethan didn’t turn to face her. Even as he sat there, his back remained unbent.

He had one hand on the armrest, and the other was holding his phone tightly. He had a worried expression on his face.

Marina could clearly sense that Ethan’s attitude toward her had changed. She even spoke in a cautious tone.

“Ethan, are you waiting for an important call?”

Ethan didn’t even raise his head. “Yeah.”

“Ethan, it’s getting late. You should go wash up. I …”

Marina said with a blush, “I’ll wait for you here.”

In the dark of the night, an owl flew over the trees. It was hooting. The Miller residence has been around for a long time.

Its surrounding environment was great, and it was normal for there to be wild animals from time to time.

Olivia had just fallen asleep. She hadn’t gotten into a deep sleep yet.
