Chapter 896
Ethan didn''t expect to receive a call from Everly soon after Olivia came back.
"Liv wants to see you.”
Ethan sighed. "I knew she would catch on."
In the snowy evening, Olivia met Ethan once again.
After Olivia''s fake death, she had been catching glimpses of him in various news. It was only after she
got closer to him that she noticed how much weight he had lost.
He was in a ck wool coat, leaning against the car. In just a minute, snow had piled on his head.

Olivia approached him. "Why didn''t you wait for me in the car?"
Ethan wasn''t confident. He didn''t know how much she had figured out.
Seeing that she was in a rtively stable condition, he licked his dry lips as he said in pleasant
surprise, "I wanted to see you sooner."
He wanted to hold an umbre for her against the snow, but he didn''t want her to feel disgusted. So, he
could he didn''t want her to feel disgusted. So, he could only stand where he was, unsure of what to do.
"Get in the car. Let''s talk."
“Alright.”
Ethan scrambled to open the car door on the passenger seat for her. Because he had matters to
discuss, he drove here on his own.
Ethan got into the car. He didn''t know what Olivia was nning, so he didn''t start the car.
Olivia had all the power to call the shots.
"Have you eaten?”
"No. I came over as soon as I received the call.”
"Me neither. Let''s go to Lunar Glow Eatery."
Ethan hastily called and made reservations.
Lunar Glow Eatery was a ce that served homemade dishes, and they used to frequent it in the past.
With a hand on the steering wheel, Ethan turned the car around. Olivia didn''t say anything, and he
didn''t know what to say, either.
It waspletely silent in the car.
To hide the awkward atmosphere, Ethan yed a song.
Olivia used to like that song. It was called "Destiny’.
The lyrics in the song seemed to be mirroring their current situation.
He drove very slowly. As Olivia listened to the song, she was immersed in her thoughts.
Thest line of the lyrics, "I want to forget you, but I can''t. You''re still haunting my mind, tormenting
me,” described them perfectly.
“When did you figure out that I''m still alive?” Olivia took the initiative to ask.
Ethan replied honestly, "A long time ago. I knew you too well.
“You won''t choose tomit suicide at that time. Keith''s reaction during the funeral only confirmed my
guess.”
“The funeral ...”
"I held it on purpose. I want the mastermind to hear that you''re dead. Then, they will give up on hunting
you down.”
"Have you been tracking my movements?”
Ethan nodded. "Yes, but I know that you''re disgusted with me. You me me, you hate me, and you''re
also afraid of me. That''s why I didn''t dare to get close to you.”
“Were you behind the warships that suddenly appeared at sea?”
"I asked my men to figure out the pirates’ location beforehand. Then, I had the warships tail them a
long distance away."
Olivia closed her eyes. “You were involved that night on the ship, too?”
"Yes."
"So Logan is your subordinate?”
Ethan was silent for a moment before answering slowly, "Yes. I was worried about you, so I sent him to
protect you.”
“Then did you know that we ...”
Ethan stepped on the brakes, pulling up by the road.
“Liv, I know very well about what happened that night. He was trying to help you."
Olivia didn''t believe it. "Logan disappeared as soon as we came back. Last night, Joshua told me that
he''s dying.
“Were you behind this? You can''t possibly tolerate another man. What did you do to him?"
Ethan was conflicted.
He was d that Olivia still had no idea that he was Logan, but he was also afraid that she would hate
him even more if she found out.
But now that things hade to this point, he couldn''t turn back anymore.
"I swear I didn''t do anything to him.”
