    “Was she sick before this?”


    “Yeah, I was going through a breakup with a bastard, so I didn’t pay her much attention. Thank god


    Keith was there to cook


    for her.”


    She had wanted to tell Ethan the truth about Olivia. But she wouldn’t know the consequences of doing


    so, given that Olivia couldn’t even put a name to her rtionship with Ethan at the moment. She


    decided to respect Olivia’s wish.


    Ethan thought of Olivia’s pale face and asked, “Why was she sick?”


    Her heart skipped a beat as she fought to maintain a neutral expression under his keen gaze. “It was


    just the flu.”


    “Just the flu?”


    “What else could it have been? Liv has always been healthy.”


    “That’s true,” Ethan concurred and concluded that Olivia might have sought pity through her show of


    weakness to avoid the divorce.


    After he received the answers from Everly, he dropped a remark before leaving. “If you’re interested,


    you may report to the Miller Property Corp Tower for work tomorrow.”


    Her eyes lit up, knowing that the Miller Property Corp Tower was the property business of Miller Group.


    It’d be an instant


    status boost to work there.


    “I can’t thank you enough, Mr. Miller. You’re the best!”


    As Ethan walked away, she suddenly thought of something and ran up to him. “Mr. Miller, have you


    come across Liv? I can’t reach her on her phone.”


    He turned around. “What do you think?”


    Everly scratched her head as she realized the pointlessness of her question. Ethan couldn’t have seen


    Olivia because he was standing right in front of her. “Oh, please ignore my dumb question. I was


    worried for her.”


    He ignored her and proceeded to leave. After some thinking, Everly gathered up her courage and said


    to him, “Mr. Miller, please be nice to Liv if you still love her. Don’t hurt her anymore. She still cares


    about you.”


    Although he cheated on Olivia, he seemed to have lingering feelings for her. Everly’s only wish was for


    Olivia to live out her final days without regret.


    She felt more relieved after confirming that Ethan wasn’t with Olivia. She assumed that Olivia might


    have put her phone on silent mode on her way home with Keith.


    Little did she know that her friend was imprisoned in a dark bathroom after Ethan turned off the lights


    and left.


    In the past, Olivia had nothing she feared in particr. However, after she almost drowned, she


    developed a trauma. She recalled watching Ethan leaving with Marina as she sank into the darkness.


    Her hands were on her belly, fearing that she might lose her baby.


    When she regained consciousness, she found herself in an operating theater with a sterile and blinding


    light right on top of her. There, she parted with her baby in pain.


    Since then, she had been scared ofplete darkness and blinding lights.


    At that moment, the bathroom was filled with cold water. It wasn’t enough to drown her, but it brought


    back memories from the day she fell into the water.


    In the bathroom, she continuously pleaded for help, hoping that someone would show up and free her.


    s, the soundproofing on the 38th floor drowned out her calls. The situation was eerily simr to the


    fateful day she
