Ethan looked in Olivia's direction.

He couldn't see because of the bandage, but her heart palpitated nevertheless.

She stood up to place the candies into a basket. "I'm going to bring some to Wendy. Could you look after him?"

Willow nodded, and Olivia left.

Willow sat next to Ethan while patting the baby deer's head. Sometimes, it accidentally bumped into the man.

He had a feeling that they were playing around.

He should be happy about it, but he realized something—the candy he ate was made of apples that couldn't be found in the area.

Where did they obtain apples from?

There was only one possibility—someone else brought it from outside the village!

"It must be Jack!" he thought.

So many years had passed. No one knew how Olivia was getting along with Jack.

While Ethan wasn't by her side, another man was replacing his place.

Uneasiness crept into his heart.

Willow, who sensed his emotions, grabbed his hand to write a few words. "What's wrong?"

"Willow, I'm kinda bored h

It's a long story." Olivia winked at Colin, hinting at him not to say much.Ethan figured that he should act until the end. "Are you having a guest, Vanessa?"Colin laughed. "Should I point out who's actually the guest here?""You seem to hold a grudge against me. Do we know each other?" Ethan feigned innocence. Olivia coldly interrupted their conversation, "No. What brings you here?"Willow gestured to indicate what had happened. Olivia looked at Ethan. "Your eyes hurt?""Yeah. They suddenly hurt after you left. That's why I asked Willow to bring me to you."She frowned slightly. "Come with me."She took two steps away

    Cyril could tell the change in Ethan's mood. Sensibly, Cyril closed the door before lowering his voice. "Any orders, Mr. Miller?"Ethan took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He suppressed his emotions to analyze the current situation.If there were a change in Olivia's relationship with Colin, it would be too late for Ethan to stop them right now.On the other side, if they didn't have sex, that meant that Colin had yet to win her heart.If that were the case, Colin would resent Ethan more than Ethan resented Colin.Therefore, Ethan shouldn't dig his own grave at such a crunch moment. It was best he figured out the duo's relationship first.Ethan cleared up his mind and whispered a few words into Cyril's ear. "This is too dangerous, Mr. Miller." Cyril was obviously reluctant to do it."Do as I say. We need to sacrifice something in order to catch the wolf."Cyril couldn't follow Ethan.

    Ethan hung his head low at Wendy's mockery. Willow raised her head to look at him, seemingly waiting for his answer.Previously, she didn't know a thing about her father.

This would be the first time she heard him speaking about Olivia.It seemed like the situation wasn't as she imagined it to be. Ethan loved Olivia."Madam Wendy, you can scold me for being a bastard in the past, hurting her so many times. But you can't doubt my love for her. "Even if she has gone missing for many years, there isn't one day that I've forgotten about her."Colin chimed in, "How hilarious, Mr. Miller. If you truly love her—as you said yourself—why did you hurt her? That's ironic."Ethan could hear Colin's footsteps getting louder. In the end, Colin placed his palm next to Ethan, leaning closer to Ethan.Colin emphasized, "From

    The peas kept springing onto Ethan's face. Irritated, he threw the pod in his hand into the basket. "I'm out, Madam Wendy.""Calm down, young man. I know you've never done such chores at home because you came from a rich family. "But think about it: your eyes can't recover in two or three days. You have to get used to the life of a visually impaired person."Ethan was stunned at the idea that Wendy was training him.Olivia had mentioned something similar. However, he didn't pay much heed to it because he was immersed in the ecstasy of reuniting with Olivia.He became serious upon Wendy's reminder. "Madam Wendy, how long will it take for my eyes to recover?""I can't say that for sure. The fastest would be three months, but it could take up to a year and a half. "You better go to the hospital after the remaining poison in your body is removed. It is not easy to treat the eyes. In short, they won't recover that quickly."His heart sank to the pit of his stomach. Before this

    The door opened. Ethan couldn't find the exact word to describe his feelings. He was having a rush of blood to the head.Since he couldn't see, he kept imagining Olivia and Colin spending an intimate moment together.A few years ago, Colin did take advantage of the drug to do something similar to her.Now that she was divorced, it was possible for her to develop a relationship with Colin. Even if Ethan found out about it, what could he do about it?At that moment, he felt grateful for the fact that he couldn't witness such a heartbreaking scene with his own eyes.A pleasant smell filled the room. It wasn't a fragrance but more like the smell of shampoo or body shampoo.Olivia sounded cold. "What are you doing here?"Ethan was a little flustered. Exactly. What was he doing over there? Trying to catch a wife in an affair?He reined in the stirred emotions in him, forcing himself to sound as normal as possible. "I heard you were hurting. I thought something happened to you,

    Olivia, who had washed her hair, rested against the window to gaze at the full moon.She lied to Colin.It had been three years and six months. She thought that she had gotten over Ethan.However, she became frantic and helpless when she learned that he was going to die due to poison.She rushed to his side without hesitation. Her kids were one of the reasons for it, but most importantly, she didn't want him to die.By right, Olivia shouldn't have had such emotions.It seemed like she needed to send him off as soon as he recovered. Otherwise, the longer he stayed, the more difficult it would be for her.She could hear the sound of the flute blowing from afar. Willow was blowing it in Ethan's room. Willow liked Ethan so much, but how could Olivia tell the little girl that Ethan wasn't his biological father?If Ethan found out that Willow's father was another man, would he hurt her?Olivia wasn't confident about her judgment toward Ethan because he could've changed throughou

Where are you? Are you alright?"Olivia woke up from her dream. She thought she heard Ethan calling her name.

She headed downstairs and soon noticed the door to Ehan's room was left ajar.She wondered, "Why did he leave the door open at this late hour?"She

    Cyril felt a chill down his spine. He suddenly recalled something that Wendy told him when they were talking. There were 48 species of snakes discovered in this region, of which over 30 of them were venomous. Their bites were deadly, and there were no antidotes available.Ethan's eyes were blinded. What would happen if he fell over? Olivia and Cyril didn't dare to wait around any more. They quickly rushed ahead. "Mr. Miller, please stop!" Cyril yelled at the top of his lungs. The forest was quiet. Ethan should be able to hear his voice. After walking a short distance, they noticed one of Ethan's slippers. There were also the occasional drops of blood. Olivia was puzzled. Why would he run ahead with such reckless disregard despite falling over repeatedly? What could be leading him on? Didn't he know it was very dangerous to do so?Apparently, he didn't care. He didn't slow down despite the danger. What he was pursuing seemed more important to him than his life. "Let's

    Wendell felt helpless. He was seriously down on luck.Instead of his son, he thought that he had found himself a bossy superior. It was a heartfelt reunion after 30 years of separation, and yet the first thing Wayne talked about was an announcement about his marriage rather than expressing words of concern for his family.

    Wendell had been frail all his life. He never imagined that his biological son would have been missing for so many years. What surprised him more was that Wayne had grown up well despite hardships. Still, there seemed to be something off about this son of his.They were father and son who had been separated for years. Now that the truth was revealed, shouldn't they be hugging each other in tears of joy? Why did Wayne show no joy in reuniting with his father but seemed interested in his identity as the son of the Procter family—or more precisely, the marriage arrangement between the Procter family and the Fordham family?""Son, things are a bit complicated right now. We need to take our time to discuss this thoroughly—""Am I not your son?" Wayne's restless temperament was exactly the same as his mother's. There was no chance of dissuading him.
