Chapter 637
Olivia fell silent. She felt lost about her future.
She felt like she was a priest who had attained enlightenment and had lost her desires, love, and even
hatred.
She agreed when Ethan asked her to study medicine, but she didn’t feel strongly about it.
She didn’t really care if she studied medicine or business. Anything was fine.
Theck of a response didn’t anger Ethan.
He nibbled on her ear and said seriously, “Liv, I’m not the same. In my eyes, you’re my past and my
future.”
After he got dressed, Ethan kissed Olivia on the forehead and left. Olivia watched him leave with
Snowball in her hands.
She was expressionless, and her heart was calm. She didn’t reject Ethan, but she didn’t love him
either.
She counted the days until they would be leaving Aldenvine. There was nothing else for her there.
In the following days, Ethan went out at the break of dawn but would alwayse home in time for
dinner with Olivia. He would also watch some movies with her after dinner.
The flowers on the table were changed every day, and his ring never came off his finger. His eyes were
filled with his love for
her.
The day before their departure, Ethan hugged Olivia and asked, “Liv, is there anything else you want to
do in Aldenvine? We won’t being back in a long time after we leave.”
Olivia answered without hesitance, “Not really.”
There wasn’t even a hint of reluctance in her voice.
Although that was what Ethan had wanted, he felt a little uneasy. He didn’t know why he felt that way,
but he quickly dismissed the feeling.
He reassured himself that everything would be better.
Ethan figured that Olivia would grow ustomed to her current life after a couple of years. And when
the danger had passed, they could be reunited with their kids, too.
It started snowing again on the day they were leaving. Madam Burgess wiped her tears away as she
said her goodbyes.
Olivia handed Madam Burgess a check that she had prepared in advance and said, “Take care,
Madam Burgess.”
“You take care of yourself, too, Mrs. Miller.”
Madam Burgess ced the check in her pocket and held Olivia’s hands. “I hope you and Mr. Miller will
be happy together.”
“Thanks.”
The car started moving. Olivia gazed at the slowly shrinking vi through the rearview mirror.
She heard it was the house she lived in with Ethan when they were newly wedded. Surprisingly, she
didn’t feel a shred of sadness as she left the ce behind.
Madam Burgess, dressed in a thick down jacket, stood at the intersection and waved goodbye. After a
while, she was covered with snow.
Olivia wondered if her family would be waving her goodbye like that if they were still alive.
In the VIP waiting lounge of the airport, Olivia put on her headphones and read a magazine while
eating.
Olivia noticed that her stomach pains became more frequent. So, she stopped eating overly spicy
foods and tried to keep herself well-fed.
She woke up too early in the morning and didn’t have time to eat breakfast. So, her stomach was
throbbing in pain.
“What’s wrong?” Ethan noticed the sh of pain that appeared on her face.
“I didn’t get to eat breakfast, so my stomach is hurting a little.”
Ethan recalled that Olivia did mention that she had some gastric issuesst year. “Does it hurt a lot?”
They were about to board the ne, so Olivia didn’t want to inconvenience Ethan. So, she shook her
head.
“Not really. It’s just a minor difort. I’ll feel better after eating.”
Ethan handed Olivia a ss of water and said, “Drink some water. You’ll feel better.”
“Okay.”
As they were lining up to board the ne, a woman yelled from behind, “Are you really abandoning me,
Ethan?”
Olivia tried to look back, but Ethan stopped her.
“I think someone’s calling your name.”
“No, you must’ve misheard.”

There seemed to be a woman in the wheelchair who was crying and trying to get to Ethan, but
someone stopped her.
“Is she calling out for you?”
Ethan replied emotionlessly, “No. Let’s go.”
