The two of them were entangled on the floor. Ethan, who was in disarray, struggled to get up. He only made his condition worse. He used to be a calm and composed man, but he lost his cool when it came to Olivia. The more cautious he was, the more it made matters worse. "Don't move. I'll handle it," Olivia said resignedly. She understood how he felt. When she found out she didn't have long to live, she was also depressed for some time. She even considered suicide. No one would be able to take it if they were suddenly thrust into such a situation.Olivia calmed him down to prevent him from making matters worse. Then, she brought him some dry clothes. "There's a shirt and a pair of pants. Can you change into them yourself?" "I can, but I can't tell the front from the back.""Never mind. I'll do it for you."It wasn't the first time she had seen his body. Olivia didn't care anymore. She reached for the tie on his waist and removed his bathrobe. Ethan's back was riddled

Something was wrong. Was Ethan possessed? He was a completely different person from before. Ethan didn't care about appearances. Olivia was everything to him. His pride would be worthless if Olivia wasn't with him.Since Olivia didn't respond, Ethan immediately added, "I'm sorry. I know that request was rude. Just ignore it. Get some rest. I'll be fine."Olivia knew he was deliberately saying that. But it was true that he was blind, poisoned, and had fallen into the snake pit. She scratched her head in annoyance. Ultimately, she gave in to his demands. She carried her blanket and sheets next to him. "I'm here. You can sleep now.""Thanks, Liv."After a while, as Olivia was about to fall asleep, Ethan yelled, "Stay away!" Olivia opened her eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"Then, she felt Ethan sneaking into her sheets. He trembled as he wrapped his hands around her waist. Before she could burst out in anger, Ethan blurted, "Snakes! There are a lot of snakes, Liv!" His w

The door opened with a creak. Olivia entered the room with the medicine. She saw Ethan lying in bed. He didn't look so good. "What's wrong with him?Cyril didn't even dare to look at Ethan. He feared he might accidentally let the cat out of the bag. He decided to use the excuse Ethan told him. "Mr. Miller hasn't been able to sleep well at night. He would get flashbacks of the snake pit whenever he closed his eyes. "He didn't get much rest, so his recovery is stunted." Olivia frowned. She had been trying to keep her distance from Ethan for the past few days. So, she never got in contact with him other than when she was bringing him medicine."You're still having trouble sleeping?" Olivia looked at the dark circles under his eyes. It was true that Ethan had trouble sleeping. He had been thinking of Olivia every night. He was afraid that Olivia would throw him out the next day. So, that's why he had those eye bags. Ethan nodded weakly. "That's right. I am haunted by

Olivia's sudden question shocked Ethan. It would be very bad for him if he admitted to having regained his vision. He would never admit it!"Liv, I wish my eyesight would return sooner so I won't cause you so much trouble," Ethan said with a troubled expression. "Don't move. I'll get you some tissues.""Okay."Ethan saw Olivia putting her bathrobe back on. Then, she took a dagger from under her pillow and slowly approached him. She was looking at his face, trying to see if he was lying. Ethan knew what she was thinking. She had started to doubt him. He knew a terrible fate awaited him if she found out he was lying about his eyesight.He felt extremely nervous but couldn't afford to show any emotions on his face. As the blood flowed freely from his nose, Ethan asked innocently, "Where are you, Liv? Are you back yet?"Olivia walked up to him and placed the tissues down. "I'm here," she said in an even tone. She pulled out some tissues and then suddenly drew the dagge

Olivia was harnessing the bullock cart. The village's primary modes of transportation were either horses or bullock carts. Despite the challenging conditions, Olivia preferred the simple life of the village over the cutthroat environment of big cities. "You should let Ethan go with you. You'll be able to come back sooner."Wendy had just finished treatment on Cyril, so he couldn't move yet. Also, she was trying to play matchmaker for the two of them. Olivia couldn't turn Wendy down even though she knew what Wendy was doing. It didn't really matter. She was leaving in a few days, after all.Ethan and Olivia sat next to each other on the bullock cart. It was a very bumpy ride. Every now and then, their bodies would be thrown up and down with the cart's motion.Ethan suddenly burst out in laughter. Olivia looked at him and asked, "Why are you laughing?""I just feel like life here is very interesting. I would never have thought we'd be living such a life, you driving a bullock
