Chapter 1000


    Ethan recalled the details of the dream involving Olivia.


    An idea shed across his mind; if that wasn''t a dream, it meant it happened in real life.


    In other words, the woman before him was Olivia!


    That sheer thought excited him.


    Meanwhile, Olivia was listening to his heartbeat with a stethoscope.


    She frowned while murmuring, “Why is his heartbeat so fast? She covered the nket over him and sat


    on the chair.


    Then, she took one of his arms. “Breathe normally. I''m going to feel your pulse.”


    She had no clue that Ethan was in ecstasy.


    He began connecting all of the clues about why this famous doctor was able to rescue him in time


    unconditionally.


    She even sacrificed three night''s sleep to give him medicine.


    The shriek he heard when he caught her was clearly Olivia''s voice. He didn''t mishear it!


    Then, why did he have such a dream?


    Perhaps she resorted to that method to check his body because he refused to let her check.


    The blurry image of a little girl seeped into his mind.


    Ethan heard that she was going to turn three years old soon. Perhaps ...


    He reminisced about what happened four years ago.


    That night, he helped the drugged Olivia on the ship and sent her to Aldenvine.


    The next day, Joshua called him to inform him that Olivia had requested birth control pills.


    At that time, he thought that it was bad for her health and her body was weak.


    Before that, the doctor also told him that her body was weaker than average people''s. It wasn''t easy for


    her to get pregnant.


    Thus, Ethan asked Joshua to give her vitamins instead.


    To his surprise, she was pregnant at that time!


    It was no wonder that the little girl resembled Olivia.


    However, why did the little girl have green eyes, which were different from Olivia''s and his?


    Ethan couldn''t control the ecstasy blooming in him. Olivia was alive!


    She gave birth to a daughter and became a famous doctor!


    The happier he was, the faster his heartbeat was.


    Olivia''s brows creased. She raised her head, looking at him. “Are you excited right now?”


    He forced himself not to smile because all of this was a mere guess of his. He needed to verify it.


    Besides, even if he guessed it right, she would escape far away if she found out about it.


    He gradually kept his emotions under control.


    Still, his hands were trembling due to his excitement.


    “—"


    Considering his fast heartbeat, Olivia assumed that he was undergoing a turmoil of strong emotions.


    She didn''t know if it was a side effect caused by the medicine or if it was his problem.


    Right then, Ethan showed fear. "I''m afraid.”


    “Afraid?” It was the first time she heard that word from him.


    She couldn''t follow.


    "What are you afraid of?"


    He grabbed her hand. "Miss, I''m afraid that I''ll die.”

    She had a hunch that he wasn''t afraid of death.


    It reminded Olivia of her past as she thought, "Who wouldn''t be afraid when they''re dying?”


    It wasn''t the fear of death but the fear of not being able to meet his loved ones.


    She didn''t mind that he was holding her hand.


    She softened her voice. "Don''t be afraid. As long as I''m here, you won''t die.”


    He turned his hand to intertwine her fingers. “I''m afraid that I won''t be able to meet my loved ones.”
