Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 390

Chapter 390

Under Marina’s anxious gaze, the lady removed Marina’s oxygen mask.

“Just what do you want?” asked Marina weakly. Her question was free from her usual supercilious tone.

“What do I want?” The lady chuckled softly. Her face was no less different from what Marina

remembered.

Time, which could be relentless, chose to be kind to this lady whose face was free from

wrinkles.

The lady was gentle and warm in the past. She had always looked at Marina with a warm gaze, giving Marina a wholesome childhood.

Hence, Marina treasured this lady the most in her life. This lady was her mother, and no one could replace her.

However, everything changed after the car accident happened.

Marina couldn’t understand how the once gentle lady turned this way.

Helen smiled. “Silly you. I don’t hold any grudges against you. Your father’s the one who owes me. Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this day to come?”

When she talked about that, her expression was tinged with madness.

It scared Marina so much as she felt that something was wrong with Helen, especially Helen’s face.

Marina found it odd that Helen looked the same as she was when she “passed away” over a decade ago. There were no wrinkles on her face!

“I’m just curious how he would react after learning the truth. Would he regret giving me the bad treatment?” Helen put the oxygen mask back on Marina’s face before wiping off Marina’s
