Chapter 580
The following day, Olivia was woken up by the bright sunlight. She slowly opened her eyes. They were bright and pure like
those of a newborn.
“Did you sleep well?”
Olivia met Ethan’s smiling face and thought he was the most charming man in the world. Even though some might think it to be an exaggeration, Olivia believed that to be true for Ethan.
Even as she looked at him so closely, she was amazed at how good-looking he was. No matter what angle she looked at him from, she couldn’t find even the slightest imperfection. When he didn’t smile, he was cold as ice. But when he did smile, his
demeanor brightened up.
Olivia replied, “Y-Yeah.”
In the past, she was constantly stressed and had trouble falling asleep. She would suffer from insomnia most nights. Even if she did manage to sleep, she would be plagued by nightmares.
Last night, she had a nice dream and slept through the night.
“That’s great. Good morning, honey.”
Ethan leaned over and kissed her on the forehead lightly. Then, he got out of bed and went to wash up.
Olivia touched her forehead in a daze. It was a quick kiss, but she felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
Kisses from a handsome man hit differently.
A thought flashed in her mind, “Don’t be silly. You don’t know what vicious lies he’s hiding under that handsome appearance. His smiles are just attempts to throw you off.”
Ethan saw Olivia still sitting on the bed with an upset expression after he came out of the bathroom. He had no idea what she was thinking.
He leaned on the bed, and his refreshing fragrance from just having washed up wafted over to Olivia.
“What’s on your
mind?”
He spoke so naturally, but his voice was full of gravitas. Every syllable he uttered made Olivia’s heart flutter.
“Nothing at all. I’ll go wash up now.”
Olivia quickened her steps when she heard Ethan’s chuckle.
Once again, she updated her post on her phone.
“But he called me his wife. He’s really handsome, and he’s just my type.’
“You’re just hopelessly in love. You’re the type to defend him even as he hurts you.”
“I pray for your well-being. Can’t you just think for a second? The devil always whispers sweet lies before doing horrible things to you. Why are you being tricked so easily? You’re useless.”
Olivia thought about it for a while and came to the conclusion that she was indeed useless. It was just a kiss. In this day and age, it was really nothing major. Besides, she had even been pregnant once before.
No matter what Ethan was after, he would eventually show his true colors. Last night, Ethan said they would be going out to shop and watch a movie. So, she picked out a winter skirt and a jacket from the closet.
The form-fitting skirt accentuated the curves on her waist. The only bad thing about it was that the zipper was hard to pull. Her right hand wasn’t flexible enough, and the zipper got entangled in some hair. It only got tighter as she tried to pull on it.
Olivia was close to cursing at the skirt.
“Let me do it for you,” Ethan said gently.
Olivia quickly said, “N-No need.”
Ethan’s actions weren’t as gentle as his words. He leaned in, and Olivia instinctively used her hands to support herself against
the wardrobe.
“Don’t move. I’ll untangle your hair. It might hurt a little.”
They were standing very close together. She could feel his breath on her ear when he talked.
“Okay, be quick,” Olivia urged.
Ethan’s fingers would occasionally touch Olivia’s skin, albeit fleetingly. But every touch caused her heart to flutter.
The closet wasn’t as spacious, and her face quickly flushed as the temperature rose.
“It’s done.”
Olivia sighed in relief when she heard that. She was about to move away when Ethan circled his arms around her waist and said, “Liv …”
