Chapter 482


    Jeff continued, “Olivia, you’ve been sheltered by me from a young age. You don’t know how cruel


    people can be. Some people will do anything to get status and wealth. When ites to this, gender


    doesn’t matter.”


    “I know that now.”


    “Back then, I was the one who spent the most time with her. I was the ideal target. I didn’t have any bad


    habits, and I was a dedicated man. She wouldn’t have to worry about other women if she married me.


    Most importantly, I was much older than her. She could inherit my wealth after I passed.


    “She only gave up and tried pursuing another man after I explicitly turned her down. Olivia, do you


    know who she set her sights on that night?”


    Olivia felt a chill down her spine. “Who was it?”


    “It was Ethan.”


    Olivia was dumbfounded. “How could it be him?”


    “Jodie was a proud woman. She was probably discontent that she wasn’t able to get together with me.


    Your rtionship with Ethan wasn’t public, and no one knew he was married. Naturally, there were a lot


    of women vying for his attention.”


    Olivia remembered that she used to feel worried. She knew Ethan was a sight for sore eyes and was


    sure many young women had their eyes on him.


    Ethan used to tell her that she was the only woman he needed and that there was no one else.


    It still felt surreal that Jodie’s story was somehow linked to Ethan. It made sense when Olivia thought


    about it.


    After all, Jodie’s looks resembled Leia’s. Ethan would definitely spare her a few more looks when they


    met, and she would overthink the attention he gave her.


    “Whose baby was it?”

    “I had some people look into it. She nned to drug Ethan, but he left before she met him. No one


    really knows who she had sex with.”


    Olivia was at a loss for words. She understood why Ethan came home that one night, all pent up. He


    kept her in bed for the whole day the next morning. It turned out that Jodie was the cause of that.


    If Ethan had met Jodie that night, she would have died right then and there. He wouldn’t allow anyone


    to do something so demeaning with a face that resembled Leia’s.


    “Then, Jodie became emotionally unstable. She’d demand an abortion without actually going through


    with it. The next time I heard news about her, she had drowned in the ocean.”


    That information was in line with what Olivia knew. “Did you meet with her before she left?”


    “I met her once before she left. She threatened me over text and threw a fit when I went to meet her.


    She said she’d destroy my reputation if I didn’t marry her. I didn’t owe her anything. I funded her


    education and provided her with whatever she wanted after she graduated.


    “After seeing her true colors, I was disappointed. So, I told her that I’d never meet her again. She


    seemed


    upset. She packed the things I had gifted her into a suitcase, told me to leave, and said I would regret


    it.


    “It was a huge mess, and her words were vulgar. She stared at me coldly like a venomous snake the


    day I left her. I knew I made the right choice then. I dodged a bullet by not marrying her. Despite all


    that, I didn’t think she’d die…”


    Jeff wasmenting his lost love, but his words sent chills down Olivia’s spine. She felt that something


    was very wrong. It wasn’t just Leia. There was also the man who impregnated Jodie. She wondered


    what role he yed in the grand scheme of things.
