Even After Death

Chapter 52

At that time, a pregnant Olivia was battling a marriage that went downhill. She brushed off the situation.

She assumed that Ethan did not inform her of the proof of graduation. It wasn’t a big deal to him.

She smiled at Calvin, “Yeah, I received it.”

“We haven’t heard from you in two years. Were you furthering your studies elsewhere? And I heard about your family’s situation.

“Look, we are old mates from college. If you need help, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me at any time. I’d be honored to have you join us at the Oakland Hospital.”

In their eyes, she remained the brightest star in the sky. She recalled her miserable and fruitless life in the last few years and finally understood the gravity of her mistake.

“I’m sorry. I do not have plans to do so. I shouldn’t be at today’s event. I …”

Calista gloated. “I heard you got married. Are you a housewife, by any chance? If so, you’re really out of place in this event. You wouldn’t want to disgrace the VIPs.”

Calvin shot her a disapproving look. Since the Davieses were reliant on the Atkinses, Calista had to keep her manners in check. Unlike her, Calvin acted gentlemanly toward others.

“That’s fine. We haven’t seen each other in a while anyway. Since we’re in the same industry, we might end up working together. I invited some medical experts to this event along with our classmates. Olivia, please don’t feel that you’re out of place.”

In her classmates, she saw the good old college days when they confidently engaged in lively academic discussions. She stared into her hands, feeling disappointed at how she had turned so boring. Her marriage only brought her pain.

From the conversations around her, she learned that the founder of the hospital would attend the event as well.

“I heard that the Miller Group bid for the Oakland Hospital project because the president wanted to make his fiancee happy.” “Mr. Miller has a reputation for being heartless. I never thought he was such a romantic! He even named a hospital wing after his fiancee!”

Olivia looked shaken after learning about that, but she inquired with a sliver of hope, “Mr. Miller? Which one?”

“Oh, Olivia, you can’t be that out of the loop! Ethan Miller is the only Mr. Miller in Aldenvine with pockets deep enough to invest billions in the hospital!”

Nobody noticed that her face paled as she clutched the hem of her top tightly. She had once vowed to build a mega–hospital to benefit more patients. NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Ethan took her idea and put it into action without her knowing, but one thing especially stood out to her–he named a hospital wing after Marina.

How ironic was that!

She stood up in a hurry and accidentally tugged on the tablecloth. The decanted red wine toppled over and spilled all over her outfit, but she had no time to clean the mess.

“Calvin, something came up. I have to go now.”

Calvin immediately helped to wipe the stains with some napkins. At that moment, the door flung open. Ethan and Marina entered
