Chapter 207
Olivia’s eyes slowly came into focus. She saw a white shirt.
She looked up and saw Ethan’s strong jawline.
The hope was gone from her eyes. She remembered that Jeff was still unconscious in the hospital.
There was no way he could’ve been here.
“Why did your nose bleed?”
Olivia couldn’t believe that was Ethan’s first question.
She could smell the scent of an unfamiliar shower gel on him.
She recalled the fact that he slept in the same bed as Marina last night. She quickly moved away from his embrace.
“I hit my nose. My mother accidentally hit the wound when she slapped me,” Olivia said calmly.
Ethan stared at her face. He wanted to find hints of her lying.
Olivia looked at him adamantly and said, “What? You don’t believe me?
“Weren’t you the one that said I was in good health and that nothing could be wrong with me?”
“That’s true,” Ethan agreed. It wasn’t clear if he was trying to convince himself or Olivia.
He didn’t notice the fleeting smirk that crossed Olivia’s lips.
He did look at her latest medical examination report. There were no issues with her health.
Olivia noticed that she wasn’t in the Miller residence. It was the seaside apartment that she had lived in before.
It would seem like her confrontation bore some fruit. Now that the Carltons were pressuring Ethan, he didn’t dare to openly live with her again.
“Since you’re fine, you can start work tomorrow. The HR department is done with the preparations.”
“Okay,” Olivia replied calmly. “I’m fine now. You can head back now. Don’t let the Carltons misunderstand.”
Her words angered Ethan. The anger on his face became more apparent. He said coldly, “Is that what you want?”
Olivia replied quietly, “Yes. I do not want to be the third wheel between you and someone else.
“I’ve done foolish things in the past. I don’t want to be a fool anymore.”
Ethan shot her an icy glare and said, “I hope you don’t regret your decision today.”
He stood up and left resolutely.
Olivia’s voice came from behind him, “I hope you don’t take your anger out on other people, Ethan.
“I can promise you that I will be yours until the day I die. It won’t change even if we’re not together anymore.
