Chapter 1047
This man…
He used to be brash and demanding, and he would try to get anything
he wanted. But now, he was so polite about it that Olivia couldn’t
quite get used to it.
“I’m hungry,” Olivia declined.
Ethan sighed lightly. He didn’t force her, though. Instead, he patted her head. “Eat as much as you like.”
With that, he quietly went back to work on the double bed.
As Olivia chewed on the meat, she touched her face. She found that
her face was red and burning. It must have been the high temperature
in the cave.
She gazed at Ethan’s strong figure. In reality, no one would hate a
man like him.
For example, she still felt something during their slightly stimulating
affair last night.
Setting aside their grudges, it was an extreme enjoyment to date and
sleep with a man like him.
But the greatest difference between humans and animals was their emotions. Every time Olivia thought of those things, she would feel something weighing on her heart.
Every time she got intimate with Ethan, she felt like she was betraying

her past self…
Ethan said that she had gotten over it, but in reality, she hadn’t.
The Olivia of the past was knee-deep in the dark mud, and even until today, she couldn’t be saved.
As Olivia ran forward, she kept turning back as well. She could never truly set her sights on the future.
After experiencing all these, Olivia was convinced that she still loved Ethan.
How should she deal with this heart of hers in the future?
He had changed too. He had become very careful, but this wasn’t what she wanted to see.
She wanted to see the confident and strong Ethan again.
She wanted to see the decisive man who had killed the boar without
hesitation in the forest.
Olivia didn’t want him to become indecisive because of her and
into trap after trap.
“Liv, it’s done. I’ll test it.”
Ethan lay on the bed, rolling around to test its endurance.
When he saw that it was sturdy enough, he placed some leaves and
hay on it.
He even mumbled, “It’s a pity that I didn’t run into a tiger. If not, I would’ve skinned it and made a blanket out of its skin.”
As long as he was with Olivia, he would subconsciously take care of her. This was his duty as her husband.
He was used to hiding his emotions in the past, but now, he quit pretending. He wasn’t faking it to please her.
He truly liked Olivia. Also, because of all the suffering Olivia went through in the past, he only wanted to give her everything in the world. She deserved the best.
He felt that the few layers of hay weren’t enough. So, he placed his clothes on top of the hay. She wouldn’t feel prickly then.
“You’ve been working for a long while. You should eat something.”
It was only then that Ethan paused his work. He even reminded her, “I
made a small water storage tank outside, and the water inside came
from the mountain springs.
“You can use the water for washing up. I also have toiletries in my
backpack.”
Ethan had truly thought of everything for her. It even felt like the were here on vacation to explore the wilderness.
Olivia didn’t know if she should laugh or cry. Even when she was alone in the wild, she had never lived so luxuriously before.
Back then, she would sleep in the trees at night, and she would of nap for a moment. She was constantly on alert.
Unlike now, Ethan had completely removed all the possibilities of
danger.

The rain came pouring for a moment and paused for another. As Olivia stood at the entrance of the cave, she could smell the fresh scent of the vegetation after the rain.
Olivia took a few deep breaths. Even the sullen feeling in her chest dissipated a lot.
An unknown bird cooed in the forest. In the forest, the night after the rain was filled with activity. The predators had begun another hunt as well.
