Chapter 413
1/2
Under the pouring rain, Olivia stood in front of the grave for a long time. Her body was quite soaked by
now. Unable to ignore it any longer, Ethan spoke up. “Let’s go back. It’s getting late.”
Olivia stood there silently, looking like she would disappear at any moment.
Once again, she lost a family member. She looked even lonelier now, and Ethan’s heart ached even
more for her.
Reaching out his arms, he wanted to hold her in his embrace. But Olivia looked calmly at him from
under the black umbrella. Her gaze was so cold that it startled him.
“Don’t be sad, Liv. You still have me.”
But she was sad exactly because she had him.
When the mountain breeze blew past, Olivia’s lone figure looked even more determined.
Without another word, Olivia walked away. She had nothing to lose now.
Ethan felt uneasy when he noticed Olivia’s silence. He convinced himself that he needed more time to
eventually heal the hurt in Olivia’s heart.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that Olivia had returned to her room once they were back home, Ethan finally sighed in relief.
Then, he went to the study.
Brent reported honestly, “We found something about Ms. Miller. Back then, she was kidnapped and
sold to the remote mountains in the south as a child bride.”
“A child bride?” Ethan spat the syllables from his mouth.
“Yes. The mountain village was small and poor. The villagers were ignorant back then. Ms. Miller didn’t
have a good childhood.
“I heard that she didn’t have much freedom to move, and the food she ate was terrible as well. She
even had to farm at a young age. She would be punished severely if she did something wrong.”
Ethan’s veins surfaced on the back of his hand. Leia was very young when she was kidnapped.
She was the esteemed young lady in the Miller family. Ethan couldn’t accept the fact that she was
treated like that.
“Is that family still alive?”
“They died. They were burned to death in a huge fire many years ago. Ms. Miller probably escaped
because of that fire.”
Leia’s tragic childhood was summarized in those sentences. It was only then that Ethan realized how
she got those scars on her body.
Perhaps she would never recover from the inhumane treatment. That was why she vented her anger

on Olivia.
“What are you planning to do, Mr. Miller?”
Ethan crossed his fingers, placing his chin on the back of his hands. “I want to save her.’
“Save her?”
“I want to rescue her from the darkness. I want her to live like a normal person.”
Brent frowned. “But how are you going to tell Mrs. Miller about this?”

A dark look appeared in Ethan’s eyes. “I have my ways. They’re both the most important women in my
life, and they shouldn’t be trying to kill each other. I’ll love them with everything I have.”
He had taken a drug from the laboratory. It was a drug Toxic Hive had been researching, and it was
capable of erasing memories.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf he gave the drug to Olivia, causing her to forget everything, she would no longer remember the root
of her pain.
It would be the same for Leia. She would still be his sister, and she would never have been harmed.
Unbeknownst to him, Olivia had overheard all this outside the door.
She knew then that this was the decision he had made. He wanted the best of both worlds.
Olivia sneered. She didn’t understand how Ethan would believe that she would still play along with his
plans. Not after everything she had gone through.
Her expression didn’t reveal any of her thoughts as she played with Connor.
Ethan was busy with Toxic Hive, so he rarely went home. Other than her decreasing appetite, there
weren’t any problems with Olivia. Hence, the people who watched over Olivia let down their guard.
But one day, Olivia received a call.
“Mr. Avery,”
“Olivia, I’ve made the arrangements.”
“Thank you, Mr. Avery.”
With great ease,
Olivia got into the car Avery arranged for her. There was already someone in the car, who was none
other than Colin. It was the man she hadn’t met in a long while.
