Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 88

Chapter 88

Stunned, Olivia stopped what she was doing and said sternly, “Madam, you’ve crossed the line. I want to talk to my father alone. Please leave.”

“Alright.” The nurse closed the door gently and left.

As usual, Olivia patiently wiped Jeff’s body and trimmed his hair and nails. Had it not been for the electrocardiogram displaying his even heartbeat, she would have thought that he’d left her for good.

Compared to the snowstorm before, the weather was great today, so she pushed the curtain away to let the sun’s warm rays shine into the room.

“Dad, I won’t be able to stay with you for long. If you don’t wake up soon, you might never see me again. Oh right–Ethan and I are divorced now.”

Olivia’s voice was gentle as she spoke to her father, updating him on her life. Sunlight fell on her face as she smiled.

“He wasn’t very kind to me these two years, but he’s been quite generous since our divorce. He’s given me what he should, including a house, a car, and some shares. I’m filthy rich now.”

“I remember you telling me after Mom left that life should have its regrets, because only then would we learn to appreciate things. Since then, I’ve treasured everything and everyone around me, but, in the end, I haven’t managed to keep anyone by my side,” she continued.

“I’ve got some good news too, Dad. I heard that Mr. Crosby has decided to auction our house. I’ll win the auction and get our house back.

”

“After Leo treats you and you recover, you live there. I’m sorry I have to leave you alone and for not being able to send you off.

Olivia talked on and on until it was dusk, yet Jeff showed no signs of walding up. She forced out a laugh helplessly. “Just as I’d expected… Miracles only happen in storybooks.”

On her way home, Olivia noticed a piece of news titled “President of Miller Group Customizes Priceless Wedding Dress for Fiancée.” There was a picture of the dress, “Milia Stellae,” attached as well.

To be honest, Olivia didn’t mind Ethan remarrying or having children with someone else, but the fact that he was giving his new wife this dress was heartbreaking.

There were so many wedding dresses in the world to choose from. Why did it have to be this one?

It took her back to that day three years ago. She’d just taken a shower and was lying lazily on the couch. She’d been watching a high–end luxury brand’s press conference on TV.

Pointing to one of the dresses displayed, she’d exclaimed, “Wow! I just love the way Emy designs her dresses! All of them are special. They’re elegant and stylish, but not flamboyant at all. It’s a pity that we didn’t hold a wedding ceremony.”

Ethan had pulled Olivia into his arms out of habit. “Who said you could only wear a dress like that during a wedding ceremony? I’ll give you the most unique dress of all, Liv.”

A month after that, Olivia had come across a draft of a gown design on the table in the study. There had been other designs. wedged in the sketchbook too.

Seeing them, she’d realized that the reason Ethan had been working late into the night was because he’d been designing a dress for her.

“Do you

like this one?” Ethan asked. He had appeared out of nowhere and hugged her from behind.

He rested his chin gently on her shoulder as he spoke, making the atmosphere ever so romantic and heartwarming-

“I like everything you draw.”

“I’ve discussed things with the designer. The dress will take three years from material selection to completion. Can you wait
