Even After Death

The first thing Olivia did when she stepped outside was to cover up the traces of amniotic fluid on the ground with some dirt.

She made it so that the trace of the fluid stopped at the intersection of the street.

When Wayne got there by following the trail, he found that the trail ended. He wanted to look for other clues when he heard some rustling noises from an alleyway nearby.

He drew his gun and approached the noise. Olivia was sitting behind a trash can with a blank look on her face.

She screamed in fright when she realized someone was approaching her.

"Don't get any closer!"

She threw a stone she was holding toward Wayne, who was able to dodge it with a simple side step. It was a clean and elegant dodge. Wayne looked at her condescendingly. “I've found you at last!"

Olivia's vision came into focus. “It's... It's you."NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

She tried to run away reflexively, but Wayne was able to grab her by the neck. The next moment, he slung her on his shoulder.

"You bastard, let me go! I don't want to go back."

“Make another move and I'll shoot you."

Ethan gazed at Olivia, who was being carried away, from a distance. He clenched his fists, and his eyes became bloodshot. He had the urge to rush outside and save her.

But she would hate him if he did that.

He notified the others that he had found Sadie. A car soon arrived and transported her and her baby away.

Ethan had no choice but to leave too.

Olivia was carried back to the temporary base by Wayne. He then casually threw her to the ground. Olivia fell onto the dirt in the yard. Luckily, it wasn't concrete, but the pain still made her frown.

"Run away, why don't you?"

Wayne reached out, and someone handed him a baseball bat. He slung it over his shoulder like a ruffian.

“I'll break your legs. Let's see how you'll run away, then!"

Olivia shuffled backward in fright. “No! Please don't break my legs. I won't run away again. I really won't do it anymore!"

Wayne smirked. "You're full of lies, woman. I don't believe a single word you say. I only believe in myself!"

He slowly walked toward Olivia.

Olivia was trembling in fear. She was wearing a camisole. There was some dirt and blood on her pale and smooth skin. Her slender and supple waist was completely exposed.

Her retreating movements were triggering him for some reason. Wayne felt his throat dry up. He felt it again.

“I promise I'll properly provide you with treatment from now on. Don't break my legs, please! It was so scary outside. I won't try to run again,” Olivia pleaded.

It seemed like she learned her lesson with this little tour of the city. "Where did the pregnant woman go?"

Olivia replied shakily, “I wanted to help her deliver the baby after I saved her. But then another group of people arrived at the scene.

"I was afraid I'd attract trouble to her, so we split up. I was lucky I got away. I don't know what happened to her."

"Ever the saint, aren't you?"

Wayne threw the baseball bat next to her forcefully. "Remember this. I'll break your legs if you try something like this again.”

Olivia was locked up in a room. She wasn't given any food for a day. Wayne wanted to make her more obedient with that.

One day without food wasn't much for Olivia. She looked at the setting sun outside the window. She could only put her faith in Ethan.

Ethan didn't disappoint. Her door was kicked open as soon as night fell. She was curled up in a ball. She looked at Wayne fearfully when he walked in.

He picked her up and took her away.

"Come with me!"

"Where are we going? Put me down. I can walk by myself. I'm about to throw up!"
