    Chapter 1038


    Widening her eyes, Olivia leaped off the bed. She didn’t even bother putting on her shoes before


    opening the door. “What did you say?”


    Cyril had a panicked look on his face. “I found this in Mr. Miller’s room.”


    There was a note left for him, telling him to stay here and focus on recuperating.


    There was also a thick envelope.


    “When Mr. Miller was poisoned, he thought that he wouldn’t survive, so he wrote a will and some


    letters. This is his letter to you.” Olivia took the heavy envelope. Then, she returned to her room and


    opened it.


    She immediately saw Ethan’s familiar handwriting. Unlike his wild and bold signatures, his handwriting


    was extremely neat. Every stroke was exquisite like Ethan himself.


    “Liv, by the time you read this letter, I should’ve disappeared from this world already.


    “When you receive this news, will you be happy or a little sad? Now that I’m at death’s door, I realize


    that I wasn’t as scared as thought I would be. My heart is even filled with peace.


    “I wonder if I can finally see you when I’m dead?


    “In the three years I spent away from you, I was constantly thinking of you and missing you. I think I


    must have gotten intoxicated, and you’re the only one who can cure that.


    “Don’t worry, Connor has grown much taller, and his body is getting stronger. Our son is quite


    outstanding, and he received third- ss meritst year.


    “I know that you’re going to me me for not taking good care of him and letting him risk his life.


    “But it’s the only way for him to grow up well and quickly enough. That way, even if I die someday, he


    would be able to continue taking care of you.


    “Without you by his side to guide him, he became a person of few words like me. When I spend time


    with him, there’s more silence thanmunication.

    “He often sits in the same spot, holding the small lock you gave him. He would stare at it all afternoon.


    “I know that he misses you a lot. If you’re reading this letter, please go back and visit him in the spring


    when the cherry trees are blooming


    “You once said that when the cherry trees bloomed, you would go back to visit him. So, every year


    when the cherry trees are in bloom, he would return to the ind where you two had stayed in the past.


    “He would wait from dawn to dusk, from when the flowers bloom to when they wither.


    “He would wait for you throughout the whole blooming season.


    “Zack and Alicia must’ve gotten much taller too. It’s my lifelong regret that I’ve never heard them call


    me ‘Dad’. I sincerely love these two children, but I didn’t carry out my responsibilities as their father.


    “I won’t be alive for long, and I’ve already distributed my property evenly. None of those three children


    will have less than the others.


    “As for you, Liv, I have too many things I want to tell you…”


    Many words filled the letter. In the secondst page, Ethan confessed to her about Logan.


    Olivia’s hands trembled as they held the letter. Logan truly did exist, but he died more than four years


    ago. That was why Ethan chose to use his identity.


    Back then, Olivia hated Ethan to the bone, so Ethan had no choice but to keep protecting her with


    another identity.


    It was no wonder that he wanted to cover her eyes that night. It was also no wonder that he knew all


    her preferences, and she kept feeling like she saw Ethan in him.


    Olivia realized that through it all, Ethan never left her.


    The troubles in Olivia’s heart were finally resolved. Willow was Ethan’s child, just like her siblings.


    Near the end of the letter, Ethan’s handwriting grew lopsided. Olivia almost couldn’t figure out what he


    was writing.


    Olivia thought of him slowly losing his senses.


    Under such difficult circumstances, he wrote a sentence,” I’m sorry, Liv. If I get another chance at life,


    can you please let me love you again?”
