Chapter 226
Alarmed, Olivia hurriedly explained, “I noticed sloopholes after reading those documents.
“That info isn’t sufficient enough to prove that my father murdered your sister. There is no evidence or witness. It’s just a speculation of my father’s motive.”
Ethan shoved the plates off the table.
The warmth on his face gave way to coldness. He seemed to be the man he was from three months ago.
Before Olivia could explain her stance further, he stood up and looked at her intimidatingly.
“Firstly, a DNA test was done on that body. It was my sister.
“Secondly, I’ve done another DNA test between the baby in her womb and your father. They were genetically related.
“Thirdly, I’ve looked into what happened to Leia before her death.
“Be it her contact history or other records. Jeff was the person she contacted the most.
“Lastly, the final person she met was Jeff, too. Who else could it be other than him?

“Or calling the dead to life so that she could speak for herself?”
Olivia was observing his expression. It turned out that Leia would always be his taboo, no matter what happened.
She figured that there was an improvement in their relationship.
However, it seemed like she wasn’t someone more important than Marina to Ethan, let alone Leia.
She didn’t want to reveal the truth anymore, fearing that it would cback to her as a scar.
He wouldn’t sympathize with her. He would only assthat it was an attempt to clear Jeff’s name.
The mess on the floor was like a representation of the genuine feelings she had for him in the past, as well as Ethan’s messy marriage life.
She lowered her head. “I trust my father.” She didn’t explain it further.
Her words touched the baseline of his patience. Furious, he yelled, “Leave!”
Olivia went out of the room and slammed the door.
In the end, their relationship was an ill-fated one.
Even without Marina’s existence, Leia would always be the thorn in their relationship.
Olivia walked out of the hotel, staring at that tall building.
She knew that Ethan should be smoking on the balcony by now.
He should be standing there alone amidst the cloud of smoke, but she couldn’t see him.
This time, he was left alone.
At the stime, Ethan was overlooking the busy street.
He supposed that she had blended into the crowd, so he tried to look for her.
But he realized that he couldn’t discern anything clearly under the somber sky. The buildings before him were lit brightly, yet the room behind him was dark. Standing between darkness and light, he was in agony.
Ethan reached out his hands, trying to pull Olivia back.

Yet, he couldn’t grab anything from the air at all.
With wobbly steps, he walked into the room.

Ethan muttered, “Liv, you promised that you wouldn’t leave me. “Leia, I’m sorry. I was late.
“Kurt, it was my fault. It was all my fault.”
He dropped onto the floor with a loud thud, hugging his head.
Brent rushed into the room and turned on the lights, only to see a mess.
When he noticed that Ethan was going to cut his wrist with a porcelain piece, he dashed over. “Mr. Miller!”
He kept Ethan under control, but the latter’s eyes were glazed over.
Ethan kept muttering something under his breath.
Brent shouted, “Kelvin, get Mrs. Miller back here! Mr. Miller is sick!”
Ethan’s eyes regained their focus at the mention of Olivia.
Looking at the broken pieces on the floor and the blood in his palm, he realized what he was doing.
“Don’t call her!” He didn’t want her to find him in such a crazy state.
Brent sighed. “Mr. Miller, please visit Dr. Lexington when you’re free. If this continues, you will die.”
The corner of Ethan’s lips twitched. “Brent, if I die, will I be able to meet Leia?”
“You won’t be able to meet Mrs. Miller then, Mr. Miller.”
