Chapter 962
Even After Death
Three months had gone by. Ethan had tried countless ways to find Olivia but to no avail. He even tried
to locate her by tracking Joel.
He had thought Olivia would contact the Golden Medical Institute to further her studies because of
Rufus.
That way, he would be able to know where she was and how she was doing, even if he couldnât see
her on a daily basis.
He didnât want things to be the way they were. He didnât have any news on her whereabouts.
Ethan was smoking non-stop in his room. Henry was downing glass after glass of alcohol. The
atmosphere was incredibly stress-inducing.
It took Henry three whole months to understand his feelings toward Everly. She wasnât a plaything to
her.
But even if he understood that, Everly was still nowhere to be found.
Even if he wanted to threaten her with her family, he couldnât even get in contact with her. He had no
way of getting to her, and that made him feel helpless.
Ethan was missing Olivia. Although she was safer away from him, he had lost her completely. He
couldnât help but wonder if he had made the right choice.
Henry sneered when he saw Ethanâs brooding expression.
âNow that things have come to this, are you happy now?â
âHonestly, I thought Iâd feel better about this.â
Ethan snuffed his cigarette, picked up a bottle of wine, and started chugging it down.
âI miss her. I miss the kids.â
Henry sneered, âI told you. Youâre a self-righteous bastard.â
Henry didnât care if Ethan wanted to set Olivia free. But why did they have to take Everly with them?
He thought about Everly every time he closed his eyes. He could feel her presence in every corner of
the office. There were also traces of their intimate moments all over the house.
After Everlyâs departure, other women tried to get close to him. But his anger would flare up whenever
he saw them. He finally realized that Everly had become irreplaceable for him.
The world was a big place. If Olivia and company changed their identities and hid in desolate places,
These two very powerful men were at a loss for what to do.
Oliviaâs foster parents had already passed. She didnât have anyone else she cared about. As for Ethan,
he was the final tie she severed.
From then on, she was completely free to go anywhere and do anything.
Ethan couldnât do anything as years passed.
One year, two years, three
He still couldnât forget about Olivia. She was like a wound on his heart that never healed. He would feel
a pang in his heart whenever he thought about her.
His position was even more stable after three years. It was finally time for him to kick off the final
stages of his ten-year plan
In the three years that Olivia wasnât with him, Ethan was able to do a lot of things without reservations.
His methods became cold-blooded. He would do anything to accomplish his goals.
Ethan was wearing a mask with a ghost design as he led his men to take down the base of operations
in Shadow Valley.
The place was thrown into chaos.
âMr. Miller, we only managed to capture the second-in-command. Golden Shark managed to escape
via a hidden route. This Pufferfish was the one behind the incident in the financial district back then.â
Ethan looked at the man who lay next to his feet. The man had a long scar on his face. Ethan was the
one who left it there.
âItâs youâ
âSova, you bastard. We trusted you ten years ago, yet you betrayed us. And now, youâre doing it again.
Ethan sneered under his mask. âYouâre all murderers and drug smugglers. Youâve harmed countless
families. People like you deserve a fate worse than death. Itâs time to settle the score from three years.
ago. Donât worry, iâll give you an honorable death.â
Ethan took his foot off the man and said to Brent, âCut off his head and post the picture to the dark
web.â
