Chapter 560
Olivia stopped in her tracks to turn to look at Marina after hearing her despairing voice.
Marina didn’t care about the housekeeper, who was trying to help her up. She was so stubborn that she wanted to crawl toward Ethan.
Her helpless and pitiful state reminded Olivia of her past. Olivia had once pleaded with Ethan not to divorce her.
She now realized how pitiful she seemed at that time.
“Are you going to let her be?” Olivia crossed her arms, assuming that Ethan ignored Marina because he was considering her emotions.
“You don’t have to mind me. It doesn’t bother me.”
Ethan was hurt to hear that. He held Olivia’s hand. “Liv, I have never loved Marina. I said I was going to marry her because I wanted to repay a favor.”
She sneered. “And that repayment requires you to have sex with her? Interesting.”
“Liv, Connor’s actually-” When he was going to blurt that out, he closed his eyes only to recall the night he rescued Olivia from the sea.
She almost died at that time, and it broke his heart to recall that again.
He still didn’t know who was the mastermind that wanted to assassinate her. If someone found out that Connor was actually Olivia’s child, Connor would be in trouble!
Thus, Ethan could only swallow the secret at the tip of his tongue.
Olivia spared him a glance and left without waiting for his explanation.
She would only need an explanation from him if she cared for him. She didn’t, so why would she care about his emotions?
Marina was getting closer to the couple, and yet they walked away, leaving her alone.
She shouted at the top of her lungs, “Ethan!”
She would never mention Kurt’s matter in front of others. He was her last trump card.
Although Ethan had called off his engagement with Marina, he didn’t reduce his provision to the Carltons. He still looked after them.
The Carltons’ position was vulnerable now.
Back then, Chris was around to keep things under control. Even though he didn’t have a son, no one dared to lay a finger on them.
Now that Chris had passed away and Marina was disabled, in addition to the called-off engagement, her relatives were getting
restless.
They didn’t dare to set their plans into action solely due to Ethan’s formidable influence.
