Chapter 50

Crestfallen again, Everly cussed, “Why isn’t that cheating bitch Marina the one dying?”

“Well, that’s fate. I suppose my baby missestoo much. Don’t be too sad about it. I’ve completed the marathon of life, but you take your time.”

To soothe Everly, she joked, “Do paylots of visits and bring fresh flowers when I’m gone. Think of it as an early investment while I set things up in heaven for both of us. When it’s your tto join me, we’ll be living the high life in heaven with angels looking after us. Does that make you feel better?”

Everly finally smiled through her tears. “Oh, I guess I’ll need to find the perfect spot for your grave so you can rest in peace and look after your kids from above. Ah, shoot, I forgot you don’t have kids. You should hang on for a few more years, and I’ll make you the godmother of my child.”

Olivia grinned. “Sounds good.”

At night, Olivia dressed up for the classmate gathering. Her short hair made her look chic and grown– up. She exuded the elegance of a white rose when she was unsmiling. In Everly’s words, Olivia could have stood anywhere in silence and still be pleasing to the eyes.

On their way to the hotel, Everly asked, “Olivia, what’s your plan now? How about traveling the world? We have all the tand money.”

Olivia rested her cheek on her palm, staring at the scenery outside of the car window. She calmly replied, “I’ll create a charity foundation. There are a lot of terminal patients likein this world. I’d also like to sponsor the education of low–inckids from the countryside.”

Everly was at a loss for words as she felt crushed by Olivia’s decision. Even with all the money in the world, Olivia could only save everyone but herself. Still, she didn’t blanyone for her fate and was generous enough to light the path for strangers.

“Liv, really…”

Olivia smiled. “It’s my way of paying for my dad’s sins.”

“Liv, we can sense the good or evil in a person. I truly believe that your dad is a kind man. Have you ever thought that the evidence against him might be fake?”

“I didn’t believe that he’d hurt other women at first, not until I saw the evidence. I bet it was a worse nightmare for Ethan. He even tried to refute the evidence, but in the end, he had to give up. The evidence is likely real.”

“Hm, could Ethan have pulled this on you to justify his affair?”

“Eve, he’s Ethan Miller. He doesn’t need to get into this mess to ask for a divorce.”

“That’s true.” Everly sighed. “The evidence is rock solid, but I still feel that something’s off.”

“That makes the two of us. Dad was recovering well, and I was planning to take care of him after he was discharged. Why did he suffer from a sudden heart attack? And there was Belle. After I visited her, she immediately jumped off a building on the sday. On my first visit to Leia’s grave, someone took a photo of me. There are too many coincidences.”

But soon, Olivia collected herself and explained, “I finally cto terms with it. I cannot deny my dad’s crimes just because it’s hard forto accept. On the day Dad was hospitalized, I checked the visitor log at home, but it was empty.

“Perhaps, he was just aggrieved at the bankruptcy. And Belle’s death was probably a coincidence. The desecration of Leia’s grave could have been Marina’s doing. She wanted to forceto divorce Ethan. Now that she’s gotten what she wanted, she will not botheranymore.”

Everly frowned. “You can’t be sure. Liv, it’s better to stay alert. Keep an eye on the people around you. The human character can be worse than demons and ghouls. Even if something looks improbable, it could well be the result of a deliberate plan. You shouldn’t write it off as a coincidence.”

Olivia stared into the scenery afar and mumbled, “If someone’s behind all these, that would be horrifying. How much effort
