Even After Death Chapter 47
As a former medical student, Everly was very aware of the side effects of chemo, and she expressed her understanding of Olivia's decision. Moreover, a lot of patients died from the side effects rather than the cancer itself, which was a torturous way to go. She could never selfishly request Olivia to endure the pain. She hugged the latter from behind before she started to weep. "Okay. I'll stay by your side."Olivia's pajamas were soaked with Everly's tears. Everly said, "You must have been through so much pain. Sorry for not knowing this earlier.""I've been doing better in the past two days. Eve, thank you. I don't want to leave the world alone. I had wanted Ethan to keep me company, but look at how things turned out. He and I are probably done for."Everly fumed at the mention of Ethan. "Liv, you said that someone damaged his sister's grave, and there was footage of you with a hammer in your hand. Could you have been framed?""Marina must have been behind this. No one else c

Ethan had so much to say to her, but he only managed to blurt out a curt response. "Let's go."They seemed to be bound to a silent understanding not to bring up the past. Once they completed the procedure, they were officially divorced. Olivia didn't say a word throughout the process and turned to leave once the divorce was finalized. He couldn't help but ask, "What are your plans after this?"She didn't even turn around to look at him. "It's none of your business, Mr. Miller."A piece of snow fell from the tree branch onto her shoulder. Ethan reflexively reached out to wipe it off, but his fingers froze mid-air when he realized that he had no right to do so. The reason he set her free was to put an end to the grudges between them.The sunny winter day reminded him of the weather on the day they got married. She was lovely in her white bridal dress, wearing a bright smile. That day, she joked with him, "I hope we'll never need to visit this place anymore.""Never.""But wha

The post-divorce life wasn't as terrible as Olivia had thought. She rested at home for a few days with Everly's company. Her best friend prepared nutritious meals for her. Her condition improved.She did not suffer much from the effects of chemo. She could never be as healthy as her pre-cancer days. But at least her fainting spells had decreased. The wound on her arm healed, and her hair loss was under control. Everything seemed to be working out for her.Everly was happy for Olivia. They spent a few nights sleeping side by side. She believed that Olivia would eventually emerge stronger from the trauma as she had stopped sleeping by the baby cot.Seeing that Olivia was in great condition, Everly suggested, "The class president organized a gathering. Let's attend it together since we're both free.""I …" Olivia wanted to turn down the invitation but was cut off by Everly. "Our old classmates are doing pretty well for themselves. Aren't you looking for a better neurosurgeon? Who

Crestfallen again, Everly cussed, "Why isn't that cheating bitch Marina the one dying?""Well, that's fate. I suppose my baby misses me too much. Don't be too sad about it. I've completed the marathon of life, but you take your time." To soothe Everly, she joked, "Do pay me lots of visits and bring fresh flowers when I'm gone. Think of it as an early investment while I set things up in heaven for both of us. When it's your time to join me, we'll be living the high life in heaven with angels looking after us. Does that make you feel better?"Everly finally smiled through her tears. "Oh, I guess I'll need to find the perfect spot for your grave so you can rest in peace and look after your kids from above. Ah, shoot, I forgot you don't have kids. You should hang on for a few more years, and I'll make you the godmother of my child."Olivia grinned. "Sounds good."At night, Olivia dressed up for the classmate gathering. Her short hair made her look chic and grown-up. She exuded the el

The long-overdue class gathering was merry. Everly was a social butterfly. She managed to make conversations with almost anyone at the event. The attendees were more shocked to see Olivia. A lot of her classmates went up to her and asked, "Olivia, I heard you're married. Why didn't you invite us to your wedding? Are we not good enough for you?"Before Olivia could say a word, a woman interjected with a shrill voice, "It's not that we're not good enough for her. It's the other way around, isn't it? She probably hid from us because her family went bankrupt."The woman was Calista Davies, who saw Olivia as her archenemy. Back in the day, the Davieses were not as wealthy as the Fordhams. So Calista always ranked second to Olivia in whatever she did. She should have been the wealthy, popular girl in school, but her spark went out when she was next to Olivia. That was the reason behind her vengeful attitude. Now that the Fordhams went bankrupt, Calista would not miss the opportunity to

At that time, a pregnant Olivia was battling a marriage that went downhill. She brushed off the situation.She assumed that Ethan did not inform her of the proof of graduation. It wasn't a big deal to him. She smiled at Calvin, "Yeah, I received it.""We haven't heard from you in two years. Were you furthering your studies elsewhere? And I heard about your family's situation."Look, we are old mates from college. If you need help, don't hesitate to get in touch with me at any time. I'd be honored to have you join us at the Oakland Hospital."In their eyes, she remained the brightest star in the sky. She recalled her miserable and fruitless life in the last few years and finally understood the gravity of her mistake. "I'm sorry. I do not have plans to do so. I shouldn't be at today's event. I …"Calista gloated. "I heard you got married. Are you a housewife, by any chance? If so, you're really out of place in this event. You wouldn't want to disgrace the VIPs."Calvin shot her

By a twist of fate, Olivia found herself in Ethan's sight at her most discomfited moments.It turned out that the Atkinses and the Carltons were family friends. The Carltons invited the Atkinses to hold shares in the Oakland Hospital. Calvin was helping Marina to scout for talents. And that was how everyone ended up at the event. However, the guests were surprised that Ethan tagged along as well. His presence took the event to the next level. And the guests flocked up to greet him.Calvin did not abandon Olivia even after Ethan showed up. He handed her some napkins, and their hands touched in a moment of frenzy.It was warm indoors. So Olivia unbuttoned her down jacket to reveal a knitted white dress underneath. It wasn't her intention to pick that particular dress, because it accentuated her figure. Lifting her head, she exposed her smooth nape. She looked lovely and doelike.Ethan noticed the absence of the mark on her neck, symbolizing their faded love. One day, he would put

Everly was reluctant to suggest Olivia go home. But Ethan made it clear that he would side with Marina. Olivia lost the competition when Ethan sided with Marina. With each word he said, he inflicted pain on Olivia. Olivia was too fragile at that moment to endure more hurt.Shockingly, Olivia, who had been looking for an escape, chose to stay. She instructed Everly, "Didn't you bring a change of clothes? Come with me to the restroom. I'll change my outfit. It's rude to leave when the event hasn't started, don't you think?"Everly was pleasantly surprised by Olivia's courage to stand up to Ethan. On their way to the restroom, she kept grumbling, "Did you see Ethan Miller's wretched look just now? I almost punched him and tore him into pieces! He's the worst scumbag."Olivia smiled helplessly. "Oh, Everly.""Liv, are you sure you want to stay? He'll be acting all lovey-dovey with his mistress. He'll make you feel terrible because you still have feelings for him.""You were the on
