Chapter 728


    Olivia’s gaze was cold. “It was his idea, right?”


    Keith replied, “Yes. He didn’t want to stand by and do nothing. The cancer cells in your body are


    spreading fast. This was the only option.”


    Chemotherapy was a high-stakes gamble. It would have a strong inhibitory effect on the tumor if it were


    sessful. But if it didn’t work, it would speed up Olivia’s demise.


    The worst thing was that her death would be painful as she suffered from the side effects of


    chemotherapy.


    Keith licked his lips and exined, “He wants you to live, Olivia. I’m also hoping for a miracle. Just like


    two years ago. I said you only had three to six months left to live. But the results of your chemotherapy


    were very good, and your condition stabilized. Maybe this time…”


    “Keith, I know you mean well, but… I don’t really want to live anymore.” Two years ago, when she said


    that, she was sad. It was because life was hard on her, and she couldn’t see the light at the end of the


    tunnel.


    But at this moment, Olivia waspletely calm. It was like she had already been through everything, as


    if she had attained enlightenment. There was no desire, longing, or emotions in her eyes.


    “My father is dead, my family is bankrupt, and I lost my babies. Even my marriage was built on lies. I


    don’t have a reason to live anymore,” she said.


    “Olivia, don’t say that. Life itself is precious. You shouldn’t give up on yourself just yet.”

    “Keith, it’s not that I’m giving up. I’m just letting life run its course.”


    Olivia refused to go along with the chemotherapy. She even started to drive the nurses out.


    Suddenly, Ethan appeared at the door with a paternity test report in hand. “If you don’t have a reason to


    live, I’ll give you one,” he said.


    Olivia didn’t want to see Ethan. She didn’t know what tricks he was trying to pull this time.


    Ethan handed her the report. Olivia opened it and saw it was a paternity test for her and Connor.


    Connor? It must be the child that looked exactly like Ethan.


    The report showed that she was the mother of Connor.


    Olivia took one look at it and threw it away. “Ethan Miller, you’re willing to resort to all sorts of trickery just


    for someone like you to falsify a report, right?”


    Brent was right. Even though there was a report, Olivia hadn’t believed him.


    “Liv, I’m not iying to you about this.”


    “Alright. If he is indeed my child, why would you save Marina instead of me? Why would you tell me my


    baby died?”


    Ethan crouched by the bed humbly. “I have reasons for doing so, Liv. All you need to know is that Connor


    is our son. It’s true.


    “Please fight through this illness for his sake, okay? You won’t want our child to grow up without a


    mother, right?”


    Olivia wasn’t moved by Ethan’s sincere words. Instead, she looked at him coldly and said, “Toote. You


    shouldn’t have lied to me when I trusted you. You’ve betrayed my trust, and I’ll never believe you again.”


    “Liv, what do I need to do for you to believe me? I’ve never slept with Marina. You’re the only woman I’ve


    been with. Please believe me.”


    Olivia felt her head throb and a scene shed in her head.


    In the scene, she was kneeling on the floor. Her face was pale as she pulled on Ethan’s pant leg. With


    tears streaming down her face, she said, “Ethan, I didn’t push Ms. Carlton. Please believe me. Please!”


    But how did Ethan respond?


    He had looked down at her with indifference and said, “Olivia Fordham, you shouldn’t have done that.”
