Even After Death Novel (Olivia) novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165

Ethan stopped in his tracks and looked at Olivia silently.

There was only the sound of water splashing from the shower.

As tense as the air was, the grasp around his wrist was tight.

“Don’t go,” she lied because that was the only thing she could say.

Ethan pinched her chin and commented indifferently, “You’re still pleading for him.”

Olivia felt like she was talking to a wall. No matter what she said, there was only one thing that mattered to him–that she had betrayed and cheated on him.

“You’re the one who betrayed me!” she thought.

Frustration was gnawing at her, but she sighed when she thought about Tom and Jerry.

Standing up in the bathtub, she hugged Ethan without giving a care about her wet body.

The water droplets slowly damped his white shirt, but he didn’t push her away.

She wrapped her arms around him carefully. The moment her lips pecked his neck, his body became tense.

“Ethan, I didn’t betray you.” Her quivering voice was soft. It was teeming with sorrow and grievance.

He reciprocated the embrace and crashed her lips with his.

She frowned. It was their first intimacy after two years. It was the same embrace that she had yearned for and relied on before this.

Yet, she was disgusted when she thought about how he had done it with Marina.

Right when she was going to push him away, his phone rang.

The ringtone indicated that it was a call from Marina.

Olivia sighed as she had never been this grateful to Marina before.

Ethan wanted to proceed, but the ringtone echoed against the walls again and again.

Irritated by the noise, he released her.

Previously, although he gave her the cold treatment due to resentment, she had freedom.

Yet, now, he had fettered her body and mentality.

When her skin was showing tinges of red due to the long bath, she stood up.

Since there was no other way out, she had to step forward bravely.

She contacted Calvin. “Calvin, have you found anything?”
