Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 203

Chapter 203

The first thought Olivia had when she saw Chloe was that they were fated to meet each other. But only as strangers.

As she turned to leave, Chloe caught up to her and said, “Just give me a moment, Liv. I have something I need to tell you.”

Olivia didn’t stop. In fact, she sped up. Chloe ran after her.

Then, Olivia only stopped when she heard a nurse say anxiously, “Mrs. Carlton, slow down. Your heart can’t take much more of this!”

Olivia stopped in her tracks when she heard that. Chloe finally managed to grab her hand.

She said while panting, “Please, just give me a moment, Liv.”

Chloe looked pale and weak without makeup on. Even her lips were slightly bluish.

“Mrs. Carlton, I thought there was nothing left to say between us?”

“Five minutes, Liv, give me five minutes. Please,” Chloe begged.

The nurse standing next to them said, “Mrs. Carlton has a heart condition, miss. Please do not agitate her anymore.”

Olivia was put on the spot. She couldn’t walk away now.

“Alright, five minutes.”

She walked into her room. Chloe followed behind her.

They each sat on a corner of the couch.

Chloe moved next to Olivia and took her hand. Olivia struggled for a bit. She then gave up because she didn’t want to risk agitating Chloe.

“Seems like Chris isn’t treating you that well. You had good health when you were with Dad.”

Olivia deduced that Chloe developed a heart condition due to mental stress.

There were only two other ways she could’ve gotten a heart condition.

One was that she was born with it. The other was unhealthy habits. Neither of those could’ve been the case for Chloe.

Chloe shook her head and said, “Chris is good to me. Really, really good to me.”

Chloe didn’t want to make Olivia feel uncomfortable. She quickly changed the subject, “I left you when you were young.

“But there were some things that your father probably hasn’t told you. Don’t you want to know why I left him, Liv?”

Olivia’s other hand grasped the couch tightly. “Wasn’t it because you fell for another man?”

“Let me tell you a story, Liv.”

Chloe’s story wasn’t mind-blowing. It was more melodramatic.

Chloe and Chris had known each other since they were kids.

The Carltons were a family of soldiers. Chris was also obligated to join the army.
