Even After Death by Lilting Champ

Olivia could have used her self-defense skills to fight Ethan, but she didn't want Isabella and Aaron to find out they were there.

Otherwise, everything she tolerated before would've been for naught.

She wouldn't be able to live with herself if she caused Isabella to commit suicide out of shame.

Cheating was wrong, but she didn't have to pay for it with her life.

Too many people had been hurt or killed because of her.

Cyril's leg was still suffering from lingering effects after so many years.

Mona was dead, and so was Snowball.

She was also the reason Ethan had all those scars on his back.

All those things had become a burden to her.

She didn't want anyone to lose their lives for her sake again.

"Ethan, you bastard.

Let go of me," Olivia hissed.

Ethan whispered, "Liv, why can you be so forgiving to everyone else? But you're always so cruel to me." Olivia looked him in the eye and asked slowly, "Do you really not know?" Sighing, Ethan nestled his head on her neck.
