Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56

Marina belatedly realized that she had walked into Everly’s trap. She didn’t want to out herself as the mistress, for that’d reveal Olivia’s identity as Ethan’s ex–wife.

She would never do that.

So, she quietened and collected herself. Glaring at Everly, she said, “I’m not. It’s indecent to discuss topics like cheating at a formal event.”

But Everly wasn’t deterred. In fact, she was emboldened. “The mistress is the indecent woman for sleeping with a married man! I have nothing to fear. But Ms. Carlton, you seem very affected by the discussion. Were you someone’s mistress too?”

“Ms. Hilton,” Ethan hissed at Everly with a menacing gleam in his eyes. She promptly behaved. “Oh, right. With a rich husband like you, Ms. Carlton doesn’t have to climb into anyone’s bed at all! If anything, she’ll be getting into your bed all the time!”

Even the dumbest person could tell that Everly was taking a jab at Marina.

However, only Calvin picked up a minute detail. How did a notable figure like Ethan Miller come to know Everly’s last name?

On the other hand, Olivia gaped at Everly’s impudence. She wasn’t as daring as her best friend, who had the guts to jab at Ethan.

Knowing Ethan, he wouldn’t allow anyone to cause trouble for him. Sensing the danger, she quickly steered the topic of conversation, “Anyway, it’s all in the past. My late husband will not come back to life. So, please don’t ask me for more details. A cheater is not worthy of discussion.”

Since she had set things straight, it’d be rude for anyone to press on. Everly almost clapped at Olivia’s perfect comeback.
