Chapter 542

The elevator door opened when it reached the third-floor basement, taking the chilling breeze in.

Ethan removed his coat to drape it over Olivia’s shoulders. The temperature was colder than it was up

there.

It was her first visit to such a place, which seemed different from the movies.

The corridor was brightly lit, but the excessive illuminance over the wall made the place appear rather

desolate.

An older man was standing by the door to the mortuary. He was waiting for Olivia under his superior’s

orders.

“Mr. Miller, Mrs. Miller, the body is cosmetically prepared, but it is a dead body, after all. So, it’s not a

pleasing sight.

“Please be mentally prepared for it.”

“Open the door.” Her voice was hoarse.

As soon as the door was open, she saw a white sheet covering a body.

Ethan explained, “I took some measures, so the case hasn’t gone public yet. Her family doesn’t know

about it for now.”

Olivia strode toward the body. She had lost her consciousness for three days straight.

Thus, everything that had happened that night felt like yesterday to her. The excruciating pain, strong

wind, and cold waves were still fresh to her sensations.

With trembling fingers, she slowly pulled the white sheet to reveal Mona’s face.

Although Mona’s body hadn’t decomposed due to the cold environment, there were livor mortis over it.

Not long ago, she was wreathed in smiles like the dazzling sun; now, she was lying in such a cold place

with a pale face.

Olivia couldn’t stop her tears from falling. “Sorry, Mona. I’m so sorry.”

She flopped onto the floor while clutching the white sheet.

Her mind rewound her first encounter with Mona.

At that time, Mona was carefully wrapping the flowers she trimmed in the rose garden.

When she was caught red-handed, she hid them behind her.

Like a kid who had done something wrong, she stammered in her words, “M-Ms. Fordham, I’m not

stealing the flowers. I thought that it was a waste. I …”

The thorns pricked her hands, but she didn’t notice.

“It’s alright, Ms. Fordham. People like us are different from you. Your body can’t handle this. I learned

how to cook and do the house chores when I was young. This little injury won’t hurt.”

“I’m clearly older than you, but why do you always have a gloomy air around you? You’re so pretty. You

should be prettier when you smile.”

“If you don’t mind, I will always be your family. I will take good care of you.”

“Dear babies, be good while you’re in your mother’s belly. When you’re out of there, I will feed you guys

delicious food!”

“Olivia, my crush is returning to the country! He’s the kindest person I’ve ever met. I like him a lot. What

is that word again? Oh, he had me at hello, and he owns all of me forever.”

“Warren confessed to me! Do you know how long I’ve waited for this day, Olivia? It’s like I own the

world!”

“I’ll bring you to Warren after your delivery. You’ll know how kind he is.”

“I-I told you. I swore that I’ll… p-protect you. F-Farewell, Olivia.”

The time they had spent together wasn’t that long. It was only six months, but Olivia was used to

Mona’s company, looking

after her.

She saw Mona as her family.

She even thought of preparing an immense marriage gift for Mona.

Olivia was determined to live a good life to see Mona walk down the aisle one day.

It would’ve been wonderful to see Mona tie the knot with the person she loved, living the youthful

dream she once had.

However, Mona didn’t get married to her crush but was killed by him instead.

Olivia couldn’t imagine how despairing and sorrowful it was for Mona at that moment.

Warren didn’t kill Mona, but her love that she nurtured for years with his bare hands.

He was such a perfect person. Yet, how could he bring himself to kill Mona?

Olivia was crying in a storm of resentment, regret, and anger.

Ethan hugged her. “Just let it all out.”

Kneeling in his arms in that dark room, she wailed while grabbing Ethan’s shirt.
