As night fell and patrol cars cleared the way, the chefs for the banquet began making preparations.

Olivia never thought that she would get an opportunity to taste the food served at a grand banquet again.

Reaching out, she caught a snowflake drifting down. She thought of herself seven years ago when she had just received news that she had cancer.

She had thought that she wouldn't be able to make it past that winter.

As Olivia stood in the antique hall, gazing at the guests who were dressed in formal attire and carrying themselves politely, she felt like she was in a dream.

She not only survived, but she also gained a few adorable and understanding children.

Even though she wasn't the star of the show today, when she made her appearance, everyone focused their attention on her.

Krystal was dressed in a graceful and dignified manner. She wore lots of jewelry, and she finally looked the part of a young lady from a distinguished family.

In contrast, Olivia made her way to the hall

    When Yale talked to Krystal, it was just like how Krystal talked to Ethan. The one getting the attention never had much interest in the person giving them attention.Krystal glanced at Yale indifferently before replying in a careless tone, "Thanks."With that, Krystal made her way to Ethan. Yale, who was ignored, clenched his fists in secret.Ethan was wearing a formal suit and leather shoes. Paired with his half mask, he looked not just handsome but full of mystery as well. A lot of women had their eyes on him."Sova." Lifting the hem of her skirt, Krystal joyfully ran over to him.Olivia swirled the crystal glass in her hand, smiling as she watched the fairytale-like scene.Krystal was very tall, so she wore heels that were only two inches tall. When she ran toward Ethan, she accidentally slipped, and she looked like she was about to fall onto Ethan.Under such circumstances, if Krystal tripped and fell, she would make a fool of herself.No one would turn a blind eye to that,

    Linus could feel Olivia's body turning stiff. He hastily took his hand away, saying, "Sorry, I just noticed that there were too many people gathering around you."Taking a step backward, Olivia put some distance between them. "It's okay, I understand. You should go and greet the guests, Mr. Linus. You don't have to worry about me.""Be careful, then. You can talk to me if anything comes up." Linus gave her a meaningful gaze before leaving.Lifting his hand, he rubbed his fingers as he recalled the sensation of her skin. Did all women have such smooth skin?An odd feeling rose in his heart. He felt like there was a fire in his heart.The guests all took their seats. About 30 guests had turned up today, and everyone was conversing in hushed tones. They were all quite courteous.Some of them greeted Mason before taking their seats.Taking Mason's hand, Tatiana constantly kept a gentle smile on her face. She always looked so gentle and gracious around outsiders.If it weren't for w

    Ethan smiled half-heartedly. "When Vanessa was treating me back then, we spent every waking hour together. I know a thing or two about her habits."Ethan's reply was completely fine. However, Linus wondered if he was hearing things, for he felt like Ethan had emphasized the words "spent every waking hour together".After Ethan said that, he looked away as if he had never said anything.In an attempt to avoid trouble, Olivia didn't say anything more to him. She tried not to draw attention.After all, it was a banquet, not some outdoor restaurant. The dining atmosphere was very quiet, and only the sounds of the piano being played live could be heard.Olivia looked at the dishes, presented like a masterpiece. Even common vegetables were carved into the shape of flowers.After the banquet, Mason excused himself. He said that he wanted the youngsters to mingle around.It was a clear sign that he had intended for this banquet to be a blind date of sorts. Tatiana was taking the opportu

    Olivia frowned as she looked at Ethan in dissatisfaction. She had no idea what he was getting at now.Ethan didn't say anything as he took a seat next to her.Krystal walked over to Ethan, looking at him hopefully. "Sova, can you be my dance partner later?""No, I've already found a dance partner." Ethan pointed at Olivia.Krystal's expression instantly shifted. "Her?""What about her?" Ethan turned to look at Olivia. "Vanessa, let's go over there to dance.""Alright."Ethan got up. With one hand behind his back, he gestured an invitation toward Olivia with his other hand. He looked very gentlemanly indeed.Olivia placed her fingertips on Ethan's palm. Ethan's large hand gently closed around hers as if it were a flower.Under the mask, Olivia's face was slightly tinted red. This seemed to be her first time dancing with Ethan.Ethan held Olivia's waist boldly whereas she leaned against his chest.They were the parents of a few children by now, but at that moment, they behaved

    Watching her children dancing together, Tatiana was all fired up.The party was meant to be a blind date in disguise and yet her children didn't give her peace of mind at all. It seemed like she could only depend on her own.When the song ended, Ethan could barely let Olivia go, but he did it anyway.Tatiana approached them. "Ethan, Vanessa, thank you so much for helping my husband. Cheers.""I simply did what I had to, Mrs. Heath. It's my job to share your burdens.""You're too humble. Both of you have to drink this no matter what." Tatiana beckoned a waiter over.The waiter served them three glasses of wine. She took one of them, and the couple took the remaining."Here, Vanessa. I'm sorry for what happened between you and my daughter. It's my fault for spoiling her too much. I hope you'll look after my husband in the future.""Don't be such a stranger, Mrs. Heath." Olivia didn't think that Tatiana was being sincere with those words, but she had to keep it courteous."Let'

    Ethan knew what Krystal was up to very well. He had noticed it since Tatiana offered him the glass of wine. He deemed it disdainful. Although it was a simple yet effective method, he thought that it was humiliating for someone like Krystal to do that.She had her own calculations, and he had his own plan.He stopped in his tracks after following her for a while. She looked at him. "What's wrong?""I think I left my phone on the couch. You should get back to your room. I'll go look for you later.""What if you don't come?" Obviously, Krystal wasn't willing to let that happen.Ethan questioned back, "Do you think that I won't go look for you when you have clues about Liv? She's everything to me."Even though it hurt her to hear him say that, Krystal was assured that he would come later. "I'll wait for you in the room, then."Ethan hummed in response and turned away to leave. His nether regions were slightly burning, indicating that the drug was kicking in.He had drunk the

    Olivia returned to her room first.The moment she stepped through the door, she felt unwell. She felt a pulsing down there.She wondered, "Did someone drug me?"After contemplation, she reckoned that the wine from Tatiana was the only thing that was off. Olivia didn't expect someone like Tatiana to stoop to such a lowly deed!It seemed like she didn't care about her reputation as long as she could marry Krystal to Ethan.Olivia filled the bathtub with water and dipped herself in it, wanting to cool herself down.The longer she spent in the water, the hotter she felt. She wondered if it was because of the warm water.She stood up and put on a robe, figuring that she needed an injection.Olivia recalled the scene of taking the drink with Ethan.Tatiana's glass of wine was surely untainted. In order to make sure that the plan was a success, both the other glasses must have been drugged.As an afterthought, Olivia bet that Ethan was suffering as she was right now!Tatiana's

    There wasn't any change in Linus' tone. "Are you sure you're alright?""I'm a doctor, Mr. Heath. I know my condition very well. Thanks for the concern. It's getting cold. You should rest up."The footsteps faded out, and Ethan buried his face in her neck. "Linus has taken a liking to you."Linus and Olivia had been getting along as friends, and he had been showing an interest in her.Although Olivia thought that it was not that likely, she could feel that he was paying a little too much attention to her.She couldn't distinguish the cause of such attention, whether it was due to love or gratitude."Don't take everything as a love matter."Ethan bent over to carry her to the bed. "You're still as naive as ever, Liv. There's no such thing as pure goodwill. When a man cares for a woman, it can't be anything else than love."Her tresses lay across the sheet. He held a strand of it to his nose to sniff it. "Unfortunately, you're mine and can only be mine."The night was meant to be

    Warren's pale face showed a hint of pleading. "Olivia, we've gotten to know each other better in the past two years. Have you ever loved me?"Hatred was evident in Olivia's cold eyes. "Never. 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. Her heart ached as she began crying. "It's finally over, Mona. Please rest in peace."She had been waiting for this day to come for too long.

    "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! It's too dangerous!" Avery yelled worriedly. Louis shifted his gaze to Olivia. "My experiment is going to be successful soon. That's Natalie's descendant. She has Natalie's genes in her…"Olivia's eyes widened as she finally realized why Louis had been taking special care of her.

    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. A lot of people came to the island, but I don't think it's a big issue for now," Ethan reminded her.He bet that the ships were loaded with ammunition. Still, the buildings on the island were intact, and nothing seemed to be destroyed. She disagreed, "No, there should

    Mason and David had a long discussion by themselves. No one knew what they talked about.But it didn't matter because it was just an extra member joining the Fordham family anyway. That was it.On the other hand, Tatiana was a little worried. If the whole Fordham family were to be added to the family registry, would her children inherit less from the Heath family?Humans were born selfish. When the event actually came to pass, everyone would be thinking about their own benefit.

    Olivia and the others returned to the Fordham family. Everything was going back on track under Avery's management. Sean's leg was recovering well. He could walk like a normal person, and he didn't have to pretend to be a cripple anymore. Troy would need more time to heal, but he was making progress.David clearly seemed better than he was before Olivia left. Everyone could still hardly believe that Jacqueline almost killed everyone in the family all by herself. When Olivia returned, David asked with concern, "Olivia, Avery said that you were cursed. How are you feeling right now?""Don't worry, Dad. I'm all better now. But we think that Jacqueline's dead in the sea," she assured.He hugged her. "It's alright. Your safety is all I hope for."It broke her heart to see how time had chipped away at his physique. It hadn't actually been that long since the family was in trouble.

    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 was merely generous when it came to spending money on Alexander. But once he reunited with his son, he realized how much it could hurt to be a parent. If that marriage arrangement was Wayne's wish, Wendell was hell-bent on making it happen.…Olivia was watching the sunset painting colors to the horizon by the seashore. Although Jacqueline was dead, Olivia didn't feel happy, not even one bit. So what if the mastermind was dead? The Fordham family was still in disarray, and no one knew where Shana was.Olivia sighed softly. "You're too young to be sighing like that." Wayne suddenly appeared next

    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. If it were any ordinary woman, Wendell wouldn't have minded it. But the person he insisted on marrying was none other than Olivia! 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. What should he do? Wendell was at his wit's end. Ignoring Wendell's dilemma, Wayne handed him a cigarette. But Wendell refused, "I quit it."Wayne lit a cigarette and squatted on the ground. Instead of a ruler of a land, he appeared more like a construction worker. Wendell massaged his forehead at that. How had his son grown

    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. There was only one thing in his head. He felt fortunate that he had run a background check on the ties between both families. Otherwise
