Chapter 605
Olivia took a long while to fall asleep. Ethan kept soothing her gently as if he were coaxing a child.
She had been acting as usual lately, and there weren’t any side effects. But Ethan still felt a little worried.
He had read the experimental reports of other patients. They would more or less show ssigns of a backlash.
But Olivia didn’t.
This wasn’t a good thing. She hadn’t experienced any backlash because it wasn’t tyet.
If it happened, the backlash she experienced might be the worst in history.
Ethan felt like there was a bomb planted in his heart, but he didn’t know when it would explode. He had never relaxed a day
since.

“Ah!”
Ethan instantly opened his eyes. He hugged Olivia tightly, asking, “What’s the matter, Liv?”
Olivia’s body was covered in cold sweat. She trembled uncontrollably. “Blood. I saw lots of blood in my dream!”
“What else did you see?”
“I also heard someone tellingto run away.”
Subconsciously reaching up, Olivia touched her face as if blood had splattered on it. She felt as if the warmth of the blood still lingered.
Ethan didn’t miss her movements. He hastily gripped her hands and comforted her. “It’s okay, it’s just a nightmare. Don’t be
scared.”
For a long time, Olivia couldn’t calm down. Her fingers clutched his clothes tightly. She looked like a frightened little mouse.
This might be one of the side effects. Ethan sighed helplessly.
She had already forgotten the terrifying memories, but her body remembered the wounds.
Ethan’s heart ached as he embraced Olivia tightly. He knew that the unseen wounds might need an entire lifetto heal.
“You must be startled by the news about Mara. Don’t read news like that again.”
“Okay.”
Olivia felt that it made sense. If she saw something during the day, she might dream about it at night. She kept thinking about the incident before she fell asleep, so it might be why her dreams were bloody.
But now, she felt that the dream was too real. It was so real that she thought she could feel the sensation of the rain mixing
with the blood.
Ethan spent a long tputting Olivia to sleep. She beceven more careful than before, and she instinctively curled up. Even in her dreams, she would lean firmly against his arms.
She had to feel the warmth of his body to fall asleep.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe terrible night passed, but an even worse incident happened.
There were no updates from the PR department of Miller Group. So, after a night of festering, the rumors online brewed up another storm.
Mara’s manager revealed that Mara had suffered unfair treatment before she died. Then, her death happened without warning
or reason.
Mara’s manager didn’t specifically mention Olivia, but her every word was an accusation toward Olivia.
Everyone was paying attention to the incident. So, the medical examiner announced the autopsy results in the middle of the night. It was proven that Mara had died from being strangled.
When Mara died, only Kelvin was at the scene. After linking it to the conflict between the two, everyone was now accusing
Olivia.
In an instant, the negative comments on the intehurtled toward Olivia like snow.
Olivia didn’t know about all this. When she woke up, she realized that her phone had gone missing.
Ethan was working at the study table. The contours of his profile looked handsome, and he was completely flawless.
Rubbing her eyes, Olivia asked, “Ethan, where’s my phone?”
“It ran out of battery, so I asked someone to take it away and charge it.”
Olivia was stunned at the obvious excuse. Raising an eyebrow, she asked, “Something happened, right?”
