Ethan crouched on the ground and began putting together the bamboo he had cut beforehand.

While the meat was roasting, he gathered some bark and vines. After some adjustments, he turned them into rope.

His upper body was still bare. When he crouched on the ground, he revealed his scar-filled back. He looked very manly indeed.

Lowering his head, Ethan began to work. He explained, "I'm worried that the ground is dirty and there are bugs, so I cut some bamboo to make a simple bed. You can sleep more comfortably at night."

He was used to these things, so he could build the bed within 30 minutes.

He had also gathered some leaves and hay at the side. He had already dried them by the fire, so they weren't wet at all. Olivia wondered where he found them in the heavy rain.

If she claimed that she didn't feel anything, she would be lying.

"It's just a night's sleep. You don't have to go through all that trouble."

"If it's you, it's no trouble for me." Ethan didn't even turn around as he

    This man …He used to be brash and demanding, and he would try to get anything he wanted. But now, he was so polite about it that Olivia couldn't quite get used to it."I'm hungry," Olivia declined.Ethan sighed lightly. He didn't force her, though. Instead, he patted her head. "Eat as much as you like."With that, he quietly went back to work on the double bed.As Olivia chewed on the meat, she touched her face. She found that her face was red and burning. It must have been the high temperature in the cave.She gazed at Ethan's strong figure. In reality, no one would hate a man like him.For example, she still felt something during their slightly stimulating affair last night.Setting aside their grudges, it was an extreme enjoyment to date and sleep with a man like him.But the greatest difference between humans and animals was their emotions. Every time Olivia thought of those things, she would feel something weighing on her heart.Every time she got intimate with Ethan, s

    After washing up, Olivia felt much more relaxed. Her thoughts slowly turned clear, and she had already decided something in her heart.When she turned around and came back, she saw Ethan toiling away.He was busy making a fish trap. Before he set out, he brought a lot of compressed biscuits and two bottles of water. He also brought some fruit along.He was planning to go as fast as possible. He would just drink water from some mountain springs and pick some wild fruits to eat along his way.The rain and Olivia's sudden presence had messed up his plans. By the looks of it, it would probably rain tomorrow as well. Ethan hastily weaved a fish trap, making preparations to catch fish.Before Olivia realized it, she was sitting on the bamboo bed he had made. Her fair legs were swaying lightly."Aren't you tired?" Olivia asked.Of course, he was tired. He hadn't slept the whole night, and he had also toiled for the whole day. It was extremely hot near the fire too. His forehead and bod

    Olivia sensed that something was off about the atmosphere between them. Pushing her hands against the bamboo bed, she slowly moved backward.But the cunning Ethan had made the bed no more than four feet wide. Where could she run to?Soon, Olivia's palms touched the edge of the bamboo bed.She didn't mean what she said last night; she was just too angry. Even when he touched her as Logan, she never found him disgusting.People would always use the harshest words to scald the people closest to them when they were mad. Of course, she wouldn't say such things again."I didn't mean that."After understanding her thoughts, Olivia lost her confidence from yesterday.Like a wild leopard, Ethan had his knees on the bed as he slowly crept forward.Soon, Olivia was shrouded in the shadow cast by his body. Olivia was supporting her whole body with her hands.Ethan's lips touched her stretched neck.Olivia was forced to look up, so she was at a disadvantage.When his thin lips touched he

    The storm swept everything in its wake, and the tender flower kept swaying in the gale. Countless petals were blown onto the ground.Sometime later, the rain gradually stopped.Olivia lay in Ethan's embrace.She suspected that Ethan had done this on purpose. He had the time to make a double bed, so why couldn't he make it a little wider?They were lying next to each other on the four-foot-wide bed. Ethan even had a strong figure of more than six feet tall. It truly was a little crowded for Olivia.She had no choice but to stick to Ethan. If not, she would have to lie on the floor.The sleeping bag had been taken apart, turning into a blanket that covered their bodies. Under the sleeping bag, the two lay naked.They could feel each other's skin and also each other's temperature and contours.To be honest, they didn't even stick so close to each other on their wedding night!After all, Ethan had limited himself too much back then. He had to suppress his truest desires in everyth

    Chapter 1051"Mr. Miller, how many secrets do you have exactly? Did you know that I once wanted to abort this child because I thought that I was pregnant with someone else's child?"As Olivia spoke, she felt that it wasn't enough, so she opened her mouth and bit Ethan's chest. "Did you know that when I gave birth to Willow, I lost so much blood that I almost died?"Do you know the price I paid just to save this child?"Enduring the pain, Ethan allowed her to vent.When the pain subsided, Ethan gently patted her on the shoulder. "I'm sorry, Liv. I was just thinking that taking birth control pills would be bad for your body."I didn't think that you … would get pregnant on the first try. We'll stop. We won't have any more children, alright?"Now, he was quite the winner in life. He even had twins, totaling up to two sons and two daughters. His children were all well-behaved and understanding. He couldn't ask for anything better.Olivia pinched him forcefully. "In your dreams! I wo

    Olivia widened her eyes. She didn't know if she should be shocked that Ethan had called her "babe" or the fact that he wanted to get sterilization surgery.Regardless of whether they would have a future together, she had never told him to get sterilization surgery at all."Do you know what this means?"Taking her hand, Ethan planted a kiss on the back of her hand. He didn't like the sensation of the gauze, so his thin lips moved from the back of her hand to her fingertips.He looked like a devoted believer kissing his deity."It means that I'll always and forever love you only, Olivia. I loved you in the past, and I'll keep loving you in the future. I've only ever had feelings for you."Olivia's mind was in a mess. She just wanted to listen to her heart. She was an adult too, and she had her needs as well.Even if she decided to stop going against Ethan, it didn't mean that she wanted to reconcile with him. But Ethan had said such words regardless."I didn't agree to marry you.

    Ethan finally had a good night's sleep. Their ordeal lasted until the wee hours of the morning, and they finally went to sleep after that. They woke up in the afternoon.When they woke up, they were holding each other tightly.Olivia was disoriented, and she felt like her body was breaking into two. Ethan even said before that he practiced moderation in everything.Back then, he would hold back no matter how strong his desire was. He would even plan the times he could do it every month.It was only now that Olivia realized how strong Ethan's determination was in the past. If he let himself loose, he would make it so that she couldn't even get off the bed.After so much toiling, their bodies had become quite sticky. She felt very uncomfortable because of that."The rain—"Before she could finish speaking, he swallowed up her voice.After another passionate kiss, Ethan finally let go of her. "Good morning, Liv."Ethan was in great spirits after what happened last night. He seeme

    The fierce rippling of the water gradually calmed down.Blown by the wind, a flower on the branch gently landed on the surface of the water. Ethan casually scooped it up and put it in Olivia's hair.Olivia glanced at him with displeasure. Then, she skilfully gathered her hair and tied it into a bun."Let's leave as soon as we're done resting. The weather is nice today, so we should take the opportunity to walk as far as possible. You'll need at least a week to get out of this forest," Olivia reminded Ethan."Okay."Ethan brought along the fish he had caught last night. The fish would suffice as supplies for their next stop.After the two gathered their things, Ethan stood at the entrance of the cave with the large hiking backpack on his back.He turned around and glanced at the cave, seemingly a little reluctant to part with it.Olivia stood ahead of him, saying with a cold expression, "Come on, let's get going."It was only then that Ethan returned to his senses. "Let's go."

I pray for your death every single second of my life.""I knew it." He smiled at that embittering answer. Karma had always been there. Another sound of a gunshot surprised the birds. A pool of blood splashed over the flowers. Warren stared at the picture on the gravestone. "Mona, I've returned everything that I owe you…"Olivia's gaze alternated between the two bodies.

    "Avery, what happened?" Olivia inquired.She had no clue what was happening and didn't dare to go anywhere close to Louis. The only person who she got close to was Avery."Stay away, Olivia!

    Olivia arrived on the island. She noticed the change in the atmosphere this time around.It was the same old scenery, but the robots that once filled the island to the brim were gone. She expected to encounter some inspection robots upon arrival, but there weren't any.Ships were docking in lines by the seashore, and most of them belonged to private foreigner organizations and mercenaries. People were coming to the island!What happened?Was Louis in danger?Although Louis wished to transform her into a cyborg, she hoped he could live regardless. No matter what field it was, no one would come before an outstanding scientist like him. It would be a huge loss to lose him.Olivia grew worried. "Calm down, Liv.

Troy would need more time to heal, but he was making progress.David clearly seemed better than he was before Olivia left.

    Alan brushed it over, but it was enough to leave Wendell in shock. Wendell imagined what kind of life Wayne had led before this. Growing up in a slum where all kinds of people lived… People like them had never really owned anything anyway, so they wouldn't feel the pain of loss…Ever since his wife passed away, Wendell didn't really care much about Alexander's upbringing.

    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.

She was a divorced woman with four kids!On top of that, Olivia's ex-husband was Wendell's nephew! The divorced couple was somewhat entangled with each other too.Ethan and Wayne were both dear to him.

    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.
