Chapter 1054
Olivia stared at Ethan. She thought that he would be mad, and she
had already prepared herself for his outburst.
Unexpectedly, Ethan sighed. “I see. So in the end, you just want to be
a jerk, Liv.”
In the past, she had gotten too used to being bound. She didn’t want
to limit herself to any relationship anymore.
If they were lovers, she didn’t have to take responsibility, nor did she have to tell him anything. Most importantly, she would be able to
leave whenever she had to.
She didn’t have to go through the trouble of discussing the past and
the future with him either.
It was only then that she realized how peaceful any relationship could be as soon as the responsibility was lifted.
How the tables had turned! Ethan remembered back then that Marina insisted that he marry her, but he couldn’t let Olivia go. He had once suggested that Olivia stay by his side as his lover.
Unexpectedly, a few years after that, he was begging her to give him a place by her side.
Even if Olivia were to just give him a position as a lover, he was grateful enough for it.
He just wanted to be closer to Olivia. Then, one day, he would be able
to find his way into her heart again.
Olivia rubbed her fingers against his chin. There was an arrogant look on her face. “So, do you want this position or not?”
They were already on unequal grounds at this point.
Getting on one knee, Ethan kissed the back of her hand.
“Babe, from today onward, I’m yours. Even my life is yours too. You can do whatever you want, but please don’t abandon me.”
Olivia played with his slightly prickly stubble. “But Ethan, I can’t make
you my husband, nor will I report my life to you. I won’t even tell your
things like who I met or who I called.
‘Our lives will have nothing to do with each other. Are you still okay
with that?”
Ethan was a very possessive man, so how could he agree to this?
“Liv, I won’t interfere in your life, but I have a condition too.”
“What is it?”
“You must not be involved with other men. If you have any needs, you
can contact me.”
That was his only condition, and it was also the line she should never
cross.
Olivia was speechless. When he put it like that, he made her sound like she had immense needs in that area.
“Don’t worry about that. I’m not as needy as you imagine.”/
In the past, being alive was the most important thing to her. Then, she
prioritized her children.
Through it all, her desire for such things was comparatively smaller.
In all these years, the only man she had slept with was him and him only.
She was usually so busy that she couldn’t even rest. She wouldn’t have time to think about such things.
If Ethan hadn’t awoken the desires in her body, Olivia wouldn’t have. come up with such an absurd yet reasonable request.
After they settled on a consensus, Ethan got up and grabbed her
ankle. Then, he leaned in and started kissing her, moving upward from
the back of her leg.
Olivia felt electricity running through her body. “Stop that. It’s dirty.”
Even in the past, Ethan had never done this before.
“How can my darling be dirty?”
A moist sensation slid over every spot of her skin. She beca sensitive that her toes curled up. She gazed at him with glassy
Then, she heard Ethan speaking in her ear, “I want every inch of body to belong to me and me only.”
That night, Ethan knew that she would be leaving, so he spent all his
energy on her.
They did it until daybreak, when they could hear the woman sweeping the small yard of the farmhouse.
Only a wall separated them from the woman. Ethan pinned Olivia
against the wall, covering her mouth with one hand while his other
hand gripped her waist. He went wild.
“Remember to think of me every day, every hour, and even every
second.”
He kept repeating the words in her ear. “Liv, I love you. I truly love you to bits. Can I give you my life?”
