Chapter 893
Everly stared at Ethan in confusion. "What exactly are you planning?"
Ethan got right to the point. "Liv wants to leave me."
"If I have to put up with a demon like you, I'd run far away from you, too."
"I won't deny that I did a lot of horrible things in the past. But now, I only want to make it up to her.
"I'm not doing it to own her. Liv has a very powerful enemy out there."
"How strong are they?"
Ethan clenched his fists. "Even until today, I still haven't figured out their identity. They continuously hired assassins
to kill Liv.
"Two years ago, on the night Liv gave birth prematurely, the enemy had sent almost a hundred assassins to kill her.
Liv almost died on that rainy night."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia had mentioned those things in passing, so Everly didn't know about those details.
When Everly learned the truth from Ethan, she was shocked as well.
She couldn't believe that Olivia had gone through so much in the two years they hadn't been in contact with each
other.
"After her fake death, I could guess it right away. I was in a dilemma back then. I wanted to get her back.
"But on that day, I also realized that if I got her back, I would only be repeating the same mistakes.
"So, I protected her within a range I could control, and I quietly watched over her as well. I swear I won't hurt her
ever again, Everly."
Ethan had a pleading look on his face.
"I asked you to help, but it's not because of selfish reasons. Liv hasn't recovered from her illness yet, and her body
is still weak.
"She also has two children with her. If she gets into danger, how can she protect herself?"
Everly had never seen Ethan so humbled before.
She remembered that when she met Ethan four years ago, he always had a proud air about him.
"You're her best friend, so you should be concerned about her safety, right? If I wanted to hurt her, I could have
brought her back straight away.
"I wouldn't have to take the long route and ask you for help."
Being earnest was the most convincing option. He didn't threaten her.
Instead, he used the simplest and most direct method.
Everly lowered her gaze as if she was thinking of something.
"I admire your friendship with Liv. Liv had once waited downstairs for days with Henry just to help you. Now, you're
also willing to go so far for her sake.
"Both of you truly care about each other, so you should know the right choice to make."
Everly rolled her eyes at him. "Your conspiring friendship with Henry is quite admirable, too."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEthan fell silent.
The clock in the living room ticked the time away as it snowed outside. Every single second was torture.
But Ethan had always been a patient man. He was betting on his decision.
When Everly saw his tightly clenched fists on his knees, she could guess Ethan's current feelings.
"You should be glad that you came here with sincerity."
Ethan's expression shifted a little. "So you mean ...?"
"I'll help you just this once. Never again."
Everly's thoughts were simple. She couldn't think of anything safer than this plan.
Ethan might be a bad man, but he sincerely wanted to protect Olivia.
They shared the same stance on this matter. They were both doing it to protect the same woman.
Even if Olivia wanted to leave, now wasn't the time.
Olivia's illness wasn't cured yet, and she had children with her.
If something bad happened to her, who would be there for her twins?
Everly was much calmer and more rational than Olivia when it came to doing things.
She couldn't get emotional at times like this.
"I'll help you, but you have to promise me one thing. Don't ever hurt her again!"
