Chapter 194

Chris and Otto’s unrelenting barrage of words gave Ethan no chance for rebuttals.

Moreover, his marriage with Marina was practically set in stone.

Marina knew that Ethan’s feelings for Olivia were complicated recently.

She grasped her sleeve tightly. She was afraid that Ethan would go back on his word.

Ethan raised his glass and said calmly, “Okay.”

Marina sighed in relief. A smile reappeared on her face. “Gramps, dad. I told you that Ethan would not

let me down.”

Otto looked at Ethan deeply and said, “It better stay that way.”

Chris also added, “Olivia is Chloe’s daughter. She can be considered part of the Carlton family. We’ll

take good care of her if you don’t. I’ll take care of things on her end. I don’t want to see you contacting

her starting tomorrow.”

Ethan’s fingers tightened around his glass. His eyes darkened. But he didn’t say anything.

He originally thought he was only telling Olivia that he wouldn’t go home because he was angry. He

didn’t expect it to come true. Now, he couldn’t even go home even if he wanted to.

He was stuck in the Carlton residence. He was forced to sleep in the same room as Marina.

It was getting late. Marina got out of the bath and changed into silky and revealing pajamas. She slowly

walked toward Ethan.

Ethan didn’t turn to face her. Even as he sat there, his back remained unbent.

He had one hand on the armrest, and the other was holding his phone tightly. He had a worried

expression on his face.

Marina could clearly sense that Ethan’s attitude toward her had changed. She even spoke in a cautious

tone.

“Ethan, are you waiting for an important call?”

Ethan didn’t even raise his head. “Yeah.”

“Ethan, it’s getting late. You should go wash up. I …”

Marina said with a blush, “I’ll wait for you here.”

In the dark of the night, an owl flew over the trees. It was hooting. The Miller residence has been

around for a long time.

Its surrounding environment was great, and it was normal for there to be wild animals from time to time.

Olivia had just fallen asleep. She hadn’t gotten into a deep sleep yet.

She immediately opened her eyes when she heard the owl hooting.

Normally, Ethan would already be home at this hour, but he wasn’t home yet.

Madam Burgess hadn’t been staying in recently, too. She was the only one in the enormous house.

The room was in complete darkness. There were only some warm yellow lights in the yard.

She saw a large owl as soon as she opened her eyes.

It was perched on top of the tree outside the window. Its eyes shone eerily.

The image of Belle’s body appeared in Olivia’s mind again. Once she thought about it, it was as if

Belle’s body filled the room.

She even imagined the scene of Belle jumping off the building as if she had experienced it herself.

She felt the wind howling in her ears and her body falling onto the floor heavily. She saw her blood all

over the floor.

She screamed in terror.

She was covered in cold sweat. At this moment, she regretted not trying hard to keep Ethan home,

She reached for her phone on the nightstand and was about to hit the dial button.

Then, she came back to her senses. What was she doing?

She turned on the projector and picked out a TV series.

Then, she got off the bed to get some food. She waited in the bedroom.

She was thinking that Ethan should be home by now. Madam Burgess had told her that he had never

spent his nights away from home.

She thought that he would come home if she waited.

She waited until her eyes were sore. The owl was still perched on the tree, looking in the direction of

the bedroom.

It was already 4:00 am.

One thing was clear to her: he was not coming home tonight.
