    Chapter 406


    Ethan had his spections all along, but he was able to confirm Leia’s true identity now.


    Now that he hadprehended the whole story, Olivia should know the truth as the victim.


    He answered without opening his eyes, “I can’t say anything for now. Leia must’ve gone through


    something during the past years.”


    Brent gazed at him deeply before letting out a soft sigh. “Mr. Miller, I know that I shouldn’t say some


    things, but there are only betrayals and misunderstandings between you and Mrs. Miller.


    “I know that you care a lot about Ms. Miller, and we can’t deny the fact that Ms. Miller has suffered a lot


    out there. But this shouldn’t be a reason to hurt Mrs. Miller. The Millers owe her.”


    Ethan suddenly opened his eyes, meeting Brent’s gaze through the rearview mirror. “Say, should I kill


    Leia so that she can pay the price with her life? Even if Leia’s dead, it won’t change the past.”


    Brent parted his lips, but he didn’t say anything in the end.


    He knew that it was already toote to make up for that matter.


    Even so, he thought that something had to be done.


    As the victim, Olivia would be so disappointed once she found out about everything.


    Ethan loved Olivia so much. His decision to keep her in the dark was clearly wrong. It would only drive


    her farther and farther away from him.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.


    “Mr. Miller, you should handle this matter properly.” Brent didn’t say anything thereafter. That was the


    only reminder he could give Ethan so that thetter wouldn’t regret it.


    Ethan was getting annoyed. “As long as we keep this between us, she won’t be able to know for now.”


    He thought, “Olivia and I have a lot of time ahead of us. I’llfort her and slowly return what I owe


    her.”


    Ethan imed, “We have to speed up the investigation on Toxic Hive and find out what Leia has been


    through. Oh, any news from Mr. Carlton?”


    “Nothing for now.


    Ethan wondered what Ms. Rosa wanted to discuss with Chris,


    Ethan was restless, feeling that something big was going to happen.


    He added, “Keep an eye on Liv. Don’t let her leave again.”


    “Yes, sir.”


    Back in the castle, the ck canopy fluttered along with the light breeze. It revealed Chris, who was


    deeply asleep.


    He hadn’t had a good rest for a few days, hence the exhaustion.


    The faint fragrance from the scented candle lingered in the air, putting him into good sleep.


    He slept for a long time, giving his body the rest it finally deserved.


    Chris opened his eyes abruptly. There was no one by his side. The sight of the messy bed alone was


    enough to tell what had happened.


    He had done what that woman told her, but where was she?


    Chris moved the canopy out of his field of vision. There was a person sitting before the dressing table.


    She wore a ck dressst night. Now, she was d in a beige dress with Ynia flowers


    embroidered on it.


    Judging from her back, she seemed to be in her 20s or 30s.


    Chris thought about having sex with her the night before and approached her with huge strides.


    “Did you cast a magic spell on me? How did I fall asleep? Didn’t you promise me…”


    He stood next to her and grabbed her by the cor.


    She slowly turned around. Since she wasn’t wearing a mask, he could finally see that familiar face.


    She smiled seducingly. “Are you happy about it?”


    He was instantly dumbstruck. He grew suspiciousst night, but looking at her face now rendered him


    speechless.


    “H-How could it be you? I personally buried you that year. Are you her younger sister?”


    The woman standing in front of him appeared not much different from the way she looked over ten


    years back then.


    If that person was still alive, she wouldn’t have appeared this young,


    However, there was one possibility. This woman could be her twin sister or another family member.


    To think that he had done the deed with herst night… He pointed right at her nose. “How could you


    do this!”
