Chapter 898
Olivia's question had hit the bullseye. Ethan could only stay silent.
"I know that you were deceived by your sister back then, but what happened with the Fordham family was real. It
was also true that you have hurt me.
"You broke my wrist to protect your sister. And even now, I still remember the scene vividly."
Ethan said, "I'm sorry, Liv."
"All these things have become obstacles between us. Sorry, but I can't cross over those past grudges and love you
all over again."
Olivia's tone was very calm today. She wasn't mad. She spoke as if she were reminiscing with an old friend.
"It's no longer possible between us, so why don't we let go without hesitance?
"If we stay together, history is only going to repeat itself. The hurt will reach me again and even touch the children."
Ethan couldn't retort to anything Olivia said.
He said sullenly, "I want to see the children."
"No need for that. I've already told them that their father was dead. If you can't love them, I'd rather you never
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmeet them at all."
Olivia said with a calm expression, "I've loved you and hated you. But you've also saved me from danger countless
times.
"We can't measure the past grudges and kindness between us.
"So, the best ending I can think of is to break up right here. It's better than making enemies of each other, right?
Why don't we just forget each other?"
Ethan's heart sank.
After everything Olivia had experienced, her attitude had turned unusually calm.
She looked like an immortal being who had gotten used to the happiness and sorrows of life.
She no longer involved herself in it, and she was always calm and reserved.
But he was like a demon who had fallen into the pits of hell.
He was obsessed with their past, and he couldn't break free from those bondages. They formed extreme contrasts
with each other.
Now, he was yielding a lot because it wasn't his last straw yet.
But if they ever crossed over the line, Ethan would break free of all restraints and completely turn into a beast.
Now, he was hiding his beastly side very well. He feared that he might startle Olivia again.
"And if I say that I can't do it, what then? Even after divorce, I have a right to see you and the children, right?"
Ethan clenched his fists tightly.
When he thought about a future where he wouldn't be able to see Olivia, he knew that he would break down.
"So we can't come to a consensus."
Olivia thought that he had changed a lot these days, so he might be willing to let go now.
But now, she realized that Ethan's love for her was only increasing.
She couldn't understand how a man like Ethan could betray her in the beginning.
"Liv, you insist on leaving me, but do you truly believe that Jack can protect you and the children? You'd rather
believe him instead of me?"
Ethan stood up, pushing his palms against the desk as he leaned toward Olivia. He was forcefully getting in her
face.
"Liv, how long have you known Jack? Do you know about his background? Or, he isn't your friend or family, so why
would he help you?
"People have ulterior motives when they're being kind for no reason. What do you think he wants from you?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia was stunned by the question.
"I ..."
"Liv, we've known each other for years, and we know each other very well.
"Yes, you should thank Jack for taking care of the children for us, but are you sure that it's the right choice to leave
with him?
"Even if it's not for you, please think of the children. Do you want them to live a stable life or a life full of
uncertainty?"
Ethan was too skilled at understanding people's hearts.
In just a few words, he managed to mention Olivia's weakness: the children.
"If you came to this point because of me, you should rethink your choice. It has been almost a year since your fake
death.
"Even when I knew where you were, have I ever done anything to hurt you?"
Ethan was trying his best to prove one thing.
"Liv, I won't hurt you. Don't be so scared of me that you would make the wrong choice."
