Even after death novel free

Chapter 278

There was a lot of noise, but Olivia could still make out Ethan and Chloe’s voices.

She could feel the irony.

Her mother wanted her dead, but the man she hated was willing to trade his life for hers.

What expectations could she have for a mother like that? She used to sit at the entrance of her home and stare at the road Chloe drove off on.

When she had a falling out with Ethan, she would do that too.

She remembered that she would keep reheating the food that got cold and wait while sitting on the doorsteps.

She would wait through the four seasons year by year, but the person she waited for never showed up.

It was like her whole life was a joke.

Olivia grunted and said slowly, “Mrs.

Carlton, I don’t want you in the next life.

Even if there is a next life, I never want to cross paths with you again.

”

“Liv, I don’t have a choice.

I really don’t have a choice…”

Chloe was crying profusely.

She didn’t want to make that choice, either.

But she loved Chris so much that she couldn’t bear to see him lose his only daughter.

Chloe hadn’t been able to bear children ever since her miscarriage.

If Marina died, the Carlton family line would end.

That was why she couldn’t allow Marina to die, even if she had to sacrifice her own flesh and blood.

Olivia ignored Chloe.

She continued, “Ethan, I’ve had enough of this life.

Your debt to me can never be repaid with your life alone.

”

She smiled and said, “Remember, she’s the one who kidnapped and killed me.

Don’t take your anger out on anyone but her.

” Ethan could feel something was wrong with Olivia.

“Liv, what are you planning to do? Don’t be rash.

”

Olivia closed her eyes.

She could hear the sound of the waves lapping against some boats and the seagulls in the distance.

It was the sound of freedom to her.

She drew her knife where the camera couldn’t see and began slowly cutting through the rope.

As the rope was about to break, she smiled at Ethan and said, “Thank you for not giving up on me this time.

But it’s already too late.

She said calmly to Chloe, “Mrs.

Carlton, you’re the one who gave me life and took care of me in my int.

“I’m giving it back to you now.

I don’t owe you anything anymore.

”

In the shocked cries of the on-lookers, the rope around Olivia’s waist snapped.

She quickly fell into the ocean, creating a spray

of waves.

“Liv!” Ethan yelled.

But all he could touch was the cold, lifeless screen.

The feed was cut off, and the screen began to play the video it was playing before it was interrupted.

The cherry blossoms were still falling peacefully, in contrast to Ethan’s horrific chest wound and his overwhelming rage.

Ethan punched the screen.

His eyes were bloodshot.

Chloe was stunned.

She didn’t expect Olivia to cut herself loose.

Olivia had her motives for doing that.

Ethan had always tried to forget the death of Leia.

When she tried to look into it, she was met with his resistance time and again.

She was betting her life on the fact that Ethan still loved her.

If that were true, Ethan would stop at nothing to uncover the truth after her death.

She was smiling as she fell into the ocean.

She had given Ethan a chance to learn the truth.

The guests fell speechless.

They didn’t know what to feel at the moment.

Brent hurried toward Ethan and whispered in his ear, “I’ve tracked their signal.

It’s at the abandoned factory.

”

Ethan was still in a daze.

He couldn’t accept the fact that Olivia had killed herself.

He slowly raised his head to look at Brent with bloodshot eyes.

He said in a shaky voice, “Liv is dead.
