Chapter 3

“Damn it! Why is there someone in the house?” Not long after I left, Olivia arrived outside the villa wearing a mask and dressed so thoroughly that no one could recognize her.

When she saw people inside the villa, her face turned livid.

According to Olivia’s plan, I should have already left home by then.

She would then be able to open the safe and begin carrying out her plan.

First, she would mortgage the house and the cars, and then use the company as collateral.

She would transfer all the company’s liquid funds, and once the bank released the loan that afternoon, she would transfer that money away immediately as well.

She could handle everything in a single day and then run away with Ethan.

With twenty or thirty million dollars, they could stop working forever and enjoy their lives.

As for the mess at the company and home, it would all fall on me.

What did any of that have to do with her?

But now that there were people in the house, how could she get the company seal and the other documents?

“Ethan, go to my house right away and find out what’s going on.” Olivia took out her phone and called Ethan.

The phone and number were both new.

She had even changed her identity in advance.

She had prepared a textbook escape plan.

To disappear completely, she had gone to extraordinary lengths.

“That bastard was worried that the valuables in the house would be stolen, so he hired people to watch the place,” Ethan said after looking into the situation.

“Damn it! How did this happen?”

Olivia was so frustrated that she nearly vomited blood.

“If this doesn’t work, we can use another method. We’ll have plenty of opportunities in the future.” To Ethan, as long as he had money to spend and a woman to sleep with, nothing else mattered.

“No. This is the best plan. It means I won’t have to take care of those two old fools anymore. He’ll take care of them from now on, including my brother. He’ll definitely look after him, too. He’ll be the only one earning money while our entire family spends it.” Olivia had long since figured out exactly what kind of person I was.

Once she died, I would devote myself completely to taking care of her family.

“But there are people inside the villa. We can’t even get in!” Ethan said helplessly.

“Only I know the safe’s password. I refuse to believe they’ll guard the house every single day. If one day doesn’t work, we’ll wait ten days. If ten days doesn’t work, we’ll wait a month. Sooner or later, I’ll get close to the safe. When that happens, we’ll secretly take everything out, get a huge amount of money, and live happily ever after!” Olivia was stubborn by nature.

She dared to make such a gamble because without the things in the safe, no one could move a single dollar from the company.

Olivia even hoped that her death would soon become an established fact.

Once that happened, who would believe that a dead person could transfer money?

Even in the worst-case scenario, if I forced open the safe and tried to touch her money, she could simply stage a miraculous resurrection.

She had thought through every step.
