Even After Death Novel (Olivia) novel Chapter 364

Chapter 364

Otto came out to the yard. Marina held her breath behind the tree and used the leaves to hide herself.

The woman before Otto was alluring, but she exuded an air of authority and danger. She was like a flower that bloomed in the tropical forests, pretty but poisonous. People wouldn’t dare to approach her.

“It’s been a long time, Mr. Carlton Senior.” The woman’s voice didn’t sound natural. It was like she had deliberately changed her voice.

Otto was a little wary of her. Even though she was wearing a form-fitting dress that couldn’t hide weapons, he still didn’t dare to get close to her.

“You’ve created too much trouble for me this time!” Otto slammed his cane on the ground with a stern expression.

“It’s our fault this time. One of my subordinates accidentally leaked our location. So I’m very grateful that you covered for us. That’s why I came personally to deliver the drugs to you.”

Otto’s expression lightened up at the mention of the drugs.

She opened her palm, and Otto eagerly grabbed the bottle of pills from her hand. Marina had

never seen Otto so anxious and overjoyed.

Otto frowned after he counted the pills. “Where are there only 30 pills?”

“The evacuation was too sudden. We weren’t able to take many of the drugs with us. If you want to blame someone, blame Ethan. He’s the one that messed things up.”

Marina’s eyes widened when she heard Ethan’s name. She didn’t understand what Ethan had to do with anything.

“Don’t even try to slander him. I know what you’re trying to do. The best I can do for you is cover up your tracks.”

Putting away the pills, Otto said, “If you ever commit heinous acts in my country, I’ll be the first to attack your base.”

The woman laughed and said, “Understood.”

“There’s a lot of heat outside, so keep yourselves hidden. Don’t make things difficult for me. I can’t save you every time.”

Waving his hands, he said, “You may leave. Bring me my pills as soon as possible.”

“Okay. I’ll be leaving now.”

Otto walked off with the pills in his hand. Marina caught a glimpse of Otto’s face. She saw the unbridled joy on his face, like a child with his favorite toy.

What were those pills? Why could they make him so happy?

Marina entered through the door after the woman left. She saw Otto lying on the couch with an cerie smile on his face. Even his eyes were glimmering. He no longer had his usual vigor. Instead, he looked like he had been possessed.

“Grandpa, what pills are you taking?”

Otto instantly turned to look at Marina. His expression turned vicious as he said, “Who told you to come in? Get out!”

Otto had doted on Marina since she was young. He had never spoken to her like that.

“Grandpa…”

Otto regained his senses when he saw that Marina was close to tears. He gestured for her to

come over.

“Come here, Marina.”

His scary expression was still lingering in Marina’s mind. She slowly walked toward him.

“What happened to you just now, Grandpa?”

Otto smiled and asked, “Did I scare you? I was just playing with you. Why haven’t you gone home yet?”

The car’s window rolled down to reveal a mask.

The woman was propping her face up with her hand. She said with a drawl, “Can we talk, Ms.

Carlton?”

Even though Otto sang her praises, Marina picked up on the cautious look Otto had for her in the beginning.

It was apparent that the woman was waiting for Marina, who spent quite some time in the house. It would mean that the woman had realized she was hiding behind the tree that time. She was an exceptionally vigilant person.

Marina was on guard against her. “Sorry, I’m busy.”

Her intuition told her that the woman was trouble and that she shouldn’t approach her lightly.

Chuckling, the woman asked, “Why? Are you afraid of me?”

Marina bit her lip and said, “We don’t even know each other. There’s nothing to talk about.”

As Marina was about to dial her driver’s number, the woman slowly took off her mask and asked, “How about now? Do you know me now?”

Marina dropped her phone the moment she saw the woman’s face. Her eyes were filled with disbelief as she muttered, “This … can’t be. How could it be you …”
