Chapter 617

It happened a long time ago, but Kayla could still feel the agonizing pain in her bones.

She was hospitalized for six months, and Ethan left her.

Even after threatening that she would give up on her studies, he merely replied, “Have it your way.”

Then, he blocked her contact number.

Kayla spent her days and nights crying. She also married Diego Welsh, who was older than her by 20

years, out of revenge.

He didn’t look down on her even though she had lost her legs. Instead, he married her and treated her

well.

However, he messed around with some non-famous celebrities because Kayla gave him the cold

treatment.

Little did he know that the person in her heart was Ethan. She had been keeping an eye on Ethan, and

she was more obsessed than before.

Kayla was overjoyed when she learned the news that the engagement between Ethan and Marina was

called off.

Kayla was confident that he wouldn’t fall in love with any woman that easily, thinking that no one in this

world deserved him. That lasted until not long ago, when Ethan announced Olivia’s identity at the

award ceremony that night.

Kayla finally knew the reason behind Ethan’s sponsorship after looking at Olivia’s face.

It was not that she was any special but simply because Kayla resembled Olivia a bit.

Kayla had never imagined that the restless celebrity her husband was sleeping with would keep

provoking her with messages. Hence, she decided to hire someone to eliminate her.

And that brought her a lot of trouble. Even Ethan and Olivia were dragged into it.

Kayla believed that God was fair, for He had bestowed her this opportunity knowing that she had been

yearning for it.

She was unbothered that she was pushed to the ground. She got to her feet pitifully. “Ethan, I’m not

asking for anything. Just one night. I have a higher-resolution video and photo. I’ll give them to you.”

Ethan’s big shadow loomed over the petite woman. His gaze was colder than the weather.

It was as though he was looking at trash.

No matter how she tried, she was still the pitiful country bumpkin to him.

“Kayla Harper, you’re seriously disgusting.” That was Ethan’s comment on Kayla.

She loved him for ten years only to receive that reply in return.

She quickly wiped her tears away. “I’m disgusting? Am I that bad in your eyes? Will you never spare

me a glance even if I give you all of me? Will I never beat Olivia?”

“At least you know your place.”

Her heart sank to the pit of her stomach, and her expression turned crazed almost instantly. “Very well.

Since you think that I’m disgusting, I won’t force you. Let’s see how you’ll clear Kelvin’s name.

“I heard that your right-hand man is detained and that your company is in a mess. How are you going

to avert the crisis without my evidence?”

She crossed her arms as if she was waiting for an interesting show to happen. “Karma is real. You’re

having it worse than how you treated me back then. Let us see how your lovely lover can help you.

“Your family has always been the dominant family in Aldenvine. Those rich families beneath you have

been waiting by the sidelines long ago. I wonder how your company will be dissolved after it loses its

footing? When that happens, how will you display your public affection?”

Ethan sneered. “As I expected, I underestimated you. It seems like you haven’t wise up during the past

five years.”

Kayla softened her tone, approaching him. “Ethan, I’m no longer the innocent woman I was five years

ago. I know that I can never have you. I don’t wanna steal anything from Olivia either.

“One night. Just one night. Can’t you grant me this wish of mine?”

He avoided her. “Kayla, do you think that my family managed to come this far because of women? Or

do you think that a mere woman can take us down? How dare someone like you steal anything from

Liv?”

She wasn’t showing any intention of giving up.

He snorted at her expression. “As for what’s happening right now, they’re just barking up the wrong

tree, and so are you.” Finishing that, he turned around and left without hesitation.

Kayla shouted behind him, “You will regret this, Ethan Miller! Miller Group is going to be ruined because

of you!”

“Stop puffing yourself up. You don’t have the right to do so.” His words were only getting cruel.

She watched him leave.

Gritting her teeth, she dialed a number. “I agree to your request.”
