Olivia raised the notebook in her hand. The notebook recorded all of Ethan’s preferences.
“I haven’t finished memorizing it yet. Mr. Miller takes his coffee with three cubes of sugar. He likes his steak rare. His favorite fruits are cherries and blueberries…”
Olivia shut the notebook. She looked at Ethan seriously, “I seem to recall that you hated those fruits the most. You only eat medium–rare steaks, and you never put any sugar in your coffee.”
If William hadn’t reminded her not to get anything wrong, she would have thought that someone was setting her up for failure at the workplace.
The list of preferences was the complete opposite of what Ethan actually liked.
Ethan took the notebook from her hands and said, “You don’t have to care about that.”
Ethan did not like people knowing about his preference. No one knew about his actual preferences except Olivia.
“You need only do as you’re told.”
The light from the laptop’s screen shone on Ethan’s face. It made his expression look even colder.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia suddenly realized that she had never truly understood Ethan, whom she slept with.
Ethan at work was a completely different person.
She nodded and said, “I’ll get used to it.”
Olivia frowned and looked at her serious expression. He found it hard to believe that she was going to be his secretary.
How did she change so much in a day?
Ethan had a lot of work piled up due to Olivia and Connor’s disappearance a while ago.
Even at home, he was still having video conferences and reading emails.
Olivia took her laptop to the bed after she showered. Luckily, the restrictions Ethan put on her were temporarily lifted.
She began searching for information on the laptop. She took particular notice of Ethan’s schedule on the day of Jeff’s car
accident.
It was Ethan and Leia’s birthday that day.
Usually, he wouldn’t have anything planned on that day. But the G20 Summit was held on that day. Ethan had to attend and give a speech because he was the chairman.
It didn’t matter if he went from the office or the Miller residence to the G20 Summit venue.
He wouldn’t have gone past the street where the accident happened.
That was unless he wanted to witness Jeff’s death at the scene because he planned the whole thing.
The other possibility was that he had no choice but to go there.
There were several accidents on that day. It wasn’t hard to look up.
Olivia quickly found the news reports of the accidents. In the articles, Olivia saw two other car accidents that happened on
Lindon Street.
Although they weren’t as severe as Jeff’s, they were enough to cause traffic jams.
Coincidentally, Ethan’s car showed up in one of the video clips.
Even though it only appeared for a few frames, Olivia quickly spotted it. The clip was posted exactly 30 minutes before Jeff’s accident.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe street was the optimal path toward the G20 Summit. Ethan’s appearance here meant that he had intended to go to the
summit.
He only changed course because of the car accident. That was why he showed up at the scene of Jeff’s accident.
Olivia felt a chill down her spine when she saw the video.
Her suspicions were confirmed. Someone else had been manipulating things from behind the scenes since two years ago!
Both Ethan and her were pawns in that person’s plan.
-Even her father’s accident was planned by that person. It was done so that the blwould be pinned on Ethan.
The person wanted to use her to hurt Connor in her anger.
That would, in turn, hurt Ethan. It would also cause their relationship to be completely irreparable.
If she hadn’t changed her mind at the last second, Connor would have been dead.
This person was wicked.
Ethan opened the door and walked in. He glanced at her and said, “You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
