Chapter 491
Ethan calmed down and asked, “My sister isn’t the culprit?”
Ethan thought his rtionship with Olivia might be less strained if that was the case.
“I didn’t say that. I asked my father about Jodie a few days ago. She wasn’t just a simple victim.” Olivia
exined the entire incident with Jodie in detail. Ethan frowned and began to recall abnormalities that
happened on that night. He had invited Byran and the others out. Something came up, so Byran
couldn’t make it. There were a few wealthy heirs at the party.
Ethan didn’t like the atmosphere and came up with an excuse to leave. He felt his body burning up
when he left, which made him realize he had been drugged. He had Brent look into it, but too many
people were present, so the incident went unresolved.
Ethan was surprised to learn that the incident was rted to Jodie.
“That’s right, you were Jodie’s target. She had sex with an unknown man after you left and had the
baby. My father found her after that, and she was pregnant. She imed to want an abortion and start
anew with my father. But she kept the baby until she was three months pregnant.
“I
suspect she kept the baby as a bargaining chip with my father. We’ve always thought Jodie was a
victim in this incident, but we neglected her nature. She was very ambitious and would do anything to
get ahead.”
“I’ll look into it.”
“Your sister might know more about it.”
Olivia reminded him, “I’m not trying to help clear your sister’s name. I just want to uncover the truth.
“I know that, Liv.”
“Alright, I’ve said what I needed to. I’ll be going now.”
Ethan grabbed her hand and said, “Liv, it took me a long time to prepare this.”
Ethan didn’t want her to leave, but Olivia looked at him indifferently and said, “I have no interest in
ying games with you, Ethan. I’ll go change.”
She grabbed the hem of her dress with her hand. She walked slowly and steadily this time.
Everly stood at the door. She could guess what Olivia had said to Ethan from her reddened Everly
knew Olivia was too proud to go through this ceremony with Ethan.
eyes.
“Liv, I’m not here to talk you into going through with the wedding. I just want to take some photos with
you.”
Olivia was taken aback. Smiling, Everly added, “You look pretty in that dress. I want to have some
photos we can look back on.”
“Okay.”
Everly was afraid that Olivia would one day die from her illness. She didn’t want Olivia to die without
ever having a wedding. Thest time Olivia wore a wedding dress was for the wedding alburn. Only
Ethan and her were present, along with the staff members. Everly wasn’t there.
Everly wanted to record all of Olivia’s best moments so that even if Olivia passed, she would still have
something to remember her by.
Olivia kept the wedding dress on because of Everly’s request.
“Hold on.” Ethan picked up the veil, walked next to Olivia, and leaned over slightly to put it on for her.
Jorge quickly started to take photos. He took plenty of photos of Everly and Olivia.
Henry smiled and said, “Since we’re already here, can we still take a photo together even if the
wedding’s off?”
Olivia didn’t have the heart to refuse such a simple request, so she agreed to a group photo. Bryan
pulled Ethan next to Olivia, and Jorge began to adjust their positions.
“That’s right, that’s the way. Smile, Ms. Fordham. I’ll count to three.”
Olivia felt uneasy but couldn’t go against everyone’s wishes, so they took one photo after another. The
wedding was off, but notpletely. It was like half the proceedings were already done.

The friends gathered together for the day and left after the sun had set.
Ethan said, “I’ll get someone to bring you home.”
“You’re going to see Leia?”
“Yeah.”
“I’ll go with you. I have something to ask her.”
