Chapter 65

Everly’s first reaction upon seeing Ethan was to cower. She might have been bold and outspoken at the

event, but she was only bolstered by the effect of alcohol and Olivia’s presence.

She bore witness to Ethan’s deep love for Olivia, and she knew that he could be deeply cruel toward

outsiders.

Two years ago, she brought Olivia to a bar. When Ethan picked up Olivia, he shot Everly an icy look

when Olivia wasn’t looking and warned, “This is the last time.”

She was drenched in cold sweat when Ethan left, and she was haunted by the look in his eyes for a

few nights in her dreams.

Back to the present, Ethan shut the lighter and casually glanced at her, but it was enough to make her

tense up.

She gulped and said in a hushed voice, “Um, Mr. Miller, I’m looking for Liv. I’ll excuse myself now.”

He shook off the cigarette ashes and gave her a look from the corner of his eye. “Let’s chat.”

She knew it wasn’t going to be a casual chat, and as a result, she was reluctant to engage with him.

“Well, it’s very late at night. How about we chat next time? Promise.”

She was ready to flee but turned around and bumped into Brent, whom she secretly described as

Ethan’s hitman.

Brent said to her, “Please, Ms. Hilton.”

Close to tears, she followed them to a nearby cafe. She couldn’t stop shaking her legs after she was

seated, causing the table to

rattle as well.

When Ethan reached for his cup of latte, he was momentarily surprised by the messed up latte art, all

because of Everly’s leg- shaking.

An awkward moment passed between them. She smiled politely at him and handed him the latte. “Mr.

Miller, have a latte.”

Then, she immediately chastised herself in secret for falling into the habit of her line of work. The

situation grew awkward.

He put the latte aside and spoke to her, “I want to learn more about Olivia and Keith.”

Everly might have no idea about the brand of Ethan’s mental disorder, but she knew about his

possessiveness.

Olivia’s ex–husband couldn’t let her go, judging from how he was prodding around about Olivia’s life.

Everly said bluntly, ” Keith probably has feelings for Liv, but she isn’t interested in him. Why else would

I put in the effort to matchmake?”

Hearing that, Ethan grew a little hostile. She recoiled and stole a careful glance at him as though she

was meeting her boss.” Uh, Mr. Miller, are you still interested in Liv?”

She had overstepped the boundary. He dodged the question and rapped his lanuckles on the table.

“What base are they on?”

“Oh, god, no. I swear they haven’t done anything. Liv was upset after the divorce and didn’t even step

out of her place for a long time. I had to talk her into coming to the event today. I don’t know why Keith

showed up, but he probably attended at Calvin’s invitation. Liv had nothing to do with that.”

Ethan’s suffocating silence and his unreadable eyes spooked Everly. She couldn’t tell if he trusted her

words, and she wondered how Olivia managed to live with a man who barely showed his emotions.

“Well, I can swear on my life. If there was something between Liv and Keith, I’d be crushed by a car!”

He finally looked at her but remained expressionless. She gritted her teeth and swore, “I’d be forever

alone if that happened!”

He seemed to think that wasn’t brutal enough and added to the curse, “You’d be broke for life.”

Ethan was shrewd enough to hit her where it hurt. She clenched her jaw and said, “Fine! I’d be broke

for life if that happened.”
