Chapter 355
Ethan was surprised that Olivia was able to recognize Leia by her eyes. She had the same thought as him. Ethan began to feel anxious and uneasy.
Olivia was afraid that he wouldn’t believe her. She took a sip of lemon water to moisten her throat and said, “I know this may be hard to believe, but I have a way to validate my claim. We just need to take Jodie’s bones for testing, and the truth will be revealed.”
Ethan gripped his cutlery tighter as he said deeply, “It can’t be done.”
“Why?”
“The body was cremated. The high temperature would have ruined the integrity of the DNA. Even if I allowed you to dig up the coffin and retrieve a sample, you’d only get some ashes.”
Olivia slumped back in her chair and said with a shaky voice, “How can that be? I went to her grave this morning. I saw signs that the soil on her grave had been filled back in hastily. Could someone have dug her body up before us?”
Ethan’s back stiffened. He didn’t expect her to have been to the grave already.
“I’ll have someone look into it.”
“It must have been Toxic Hive. They must have gone there to take away the evidence. But this could indirectly prove that…
Ethan interrupted her and said, “Prove what? That my sister is a murderer?”
Olivia knew Ethan would be defensive when she brought up his sister.
“Currently, I suspect that she is.”
“What about her motive? If she did it, why did she do it? Why would she spend so much time, effort, and resources to kill you? She went missing when she was a child. What grudge could she possibly have against you?”
Olivia tried to explain urgently, “I haven’t found out her motive yet. But it’s true that she wants me dead. Last night…”
Before she could tell Ethan about what happened last night, he cut her off impatiently, ” Enough of this. I don’t want to hear any more of this ridiculous story.”
“I know my conclusion sounds absurd or even funny. But don’t you want to get to the bottom of this? Don’t you want to know who sabotaged our relationship behind the scenes? She’s been playing us like fools.”
“Naturally, I’ll get to the bottom of this.” Ethan lowered his head to hide the guilt in his eyes.
