Chapter 841
Ethan would still cough at times. After walking Olivia to her door, he gave her a few reminders and left.
Her body was weaker than the average person's, and he had yet to fully recover.
It was easy to spread the disease to her and Alicia. So, Ethan decided to return to her only after he recovered for
their sake.
Moreover, it was a difficult decision for Olivia to let him stay. It was better for him to distance himself from her for
now so as to not pressure her.
Ethan handed her a dagger, reminding her not to leave the room randomly for safety purposes.
Olivia entered her room, where Joshua and Alicia were having fun together.
Alicia had plastered stickers of stars and moons on his face. He was wearing a necklace and a pair of earrings.
There were even acrylic nails on his fingernails.

Before he could twirl a complete circle, he noticed Olivia standing by the door.
His smile went stiff before he let out a wry cough. "Miss, you're back. That's fast."
Olivia felt that he was enjoying himself, more than Alicia at that.
She wondered where Logan found such a bright man.
"Yeah. Was she being a good girl?"
"She was. It's getting late. I should get going."
"Allie, say goodbye to Uncle Joshua."
"Bye-bye." Alicia waved her hands. She suddenly thought of something and held his hand. "Where's Uncle Logan?"
Olivia explained, "He'll return after he recovers. Allie, Uncle Joshua has to get some rest too."
"Okay." Disappointment dimmed Alicia's eyes as she had assumed that Ethan would've come too.
She didn't know what kind of dispute happened between Olivia and Ethan. She was curious about why he hadn't
returned after going away for so many days.
Now that Joshua was keeping her company, she wondered if she wouldn't be able to see Ethan again.
A thought that sprouted in her mind became deeply rooted in her heart. It elicited wistfulness in her as time passed.
Two days later, Ethan had yet to return.
Olivia could clearly notice that Alicia was in low spirits these two days. She wondered if it was because of their long
stay at sea.
"Allie, we'll be reaching the land in a few days. Could you hang on a little while longer?"
Not wanting Olivia to worry, Alicia nodded.
Tonight, Alicia finally found her chance.
Olivia closed the door after Joshua brought them desserts in the afternoon.
She always did some exercises during this period while Alicia took a nap.
Since Alicia napped in the outside compartment, Olivia did yoga while playing music in the master bedroom so as to

Once Olivia entered the bedroom, the kid in bed opened her eyes.
Alicia's thought was simple. She thought that she would be able to meet Ethan by following Joshua.
Quietly, she stood on a stool to open the door.
She didn't make a noise during the whole process.
However, by the time she walked to the corridor, there was no sight of Joshua.
She thought, "Uncle Joshua always turns to the left. I should be able to catch up to him if I run faster."
As an afterthought, she paced up and began running.
Olivia had finished her yoga session. She managed to train some abs after maintaining a healthy routine for quite
some time.
She decided to increase the intensity once she got better.
She wiped her sweat away and took a short bath. Then, she was ready to wake Alicia up to have fruit.
She hadn't noticed the problem when she saw the empty bed.
"Allie, are you in the toilet?" She walked to the toilet in the compartment, but Alicia wasn't there.
She looked at the stool next to the door and thought, "This is bad!"
