Even After Death Chapter 117
Calista was still discontent. She hated the fact that Olivia became the center of attention wherever she went. Calvin walked up to Olivia and said, "Hey! Fancy seeing you at these types of events.""Hey, Calvin," Olivia responded courteously. "I didn't like events like these in the past. And after the Fordhams went bankrupt, I never got the chance to come to one." "You could spend 500 million dollars like it was nothing. If you don't even get to go to events like this, I think most people on this ship haven't either.." Calvin knew about her relationship with Ethan, but he kept it to himself. He only winked at her in secret. It would seem like he found something on the security cameras back then. Olivia had an idea of what it was. Before Olivia could say anything, Calista said in a mocking tone, "Didn't I tell you, Calvin? Olivia would at least get with a rich old man. She has the looks for it. "Olivia, I haven't heard about the passing of any rich old man, though. Counti

"What did you call me?" Chloe looked at Olivia in disbelief. "Mrs. Carlton, did you forget that you divorced my father years ago?"Your husband is now Mr. Carlton. Am I mistaken to call you Mrs. Carlton?"This was the first time Olivia had been so cold to Chloe. Even during the time Chloe met her after she came back from overseas, Olivia had been gentle.Now, it was as if she was a cold and sharpened blade. "Liv, you've changed. How can you say that? I am still your mother, after all.""Yes, I've changed. I've only come to realize that humans are despicable and that human nature is ugly and selfish. "If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have been missing my mother all those years. I wouldn't have spent years waiting for someone who would never return." "Liv, I know I've let you down. But now that I'm back, I'll do everything in my power to make it up to you."Olivia gazed at Chloe's face. She didn't remember how Chloe looked when she was still a child. She looked la

His description jolted Olivia's memory. She had met many people with weird habits. One of Ethan's friends was a health nut. While everyone else drank Absinthe on ice, he would be drinking detox blends in his cold cup. When other people were having fun with pretty ladies, he would be wearing an eye mask and having a footbath. He would also mutter, "If you don't take care of your health now, you'll be suffering from illnesses when you get older." Colin was the weirdest person she knew other than that health nut. He was morbidly afraid of furry animals with sharp teeth. He used to follow Micheal to Jeff's birthday parties. But he would always be chased up a tree by Olivia's cat, Snowball. A group of children would laugh at him from below. Only Olivia would help him by grabbing Snowball. She would then coax him with a smile. "Don't be afraid, I have him now. Give me your hand. I'll help you down." "Oh, it's you. Are you still afraid of cats?" The memory of that incident b

"Shut up," Ethan said. "Ethan, we're the most compatible with each other. Olivia only loves your money. She can get with anyone as long as the price is right." Ethan ignored her and left. Marina was angry. She walked toward the other side of the hall with her wine in hand. She whispered something into Calista's ears. Calista was all talk. She had never actually hurt anyone before.She had a nervous expression and said, "Are … are we really doing this?" Marina smiled and said, "I have always trusted you, Calista. I believe you're destined to do great things. "If you can take care of this for me, I can promise you that there will be something for the Davieses at the Oakland Hospital." "I will not let you down, Marina." Marina smiled with satisfaction. This was reality. People would do anything to satiate their greed."Olivia, how are you going to fight me with neither the resources nor anyone to back you up?" Marina thought to herself. Olivia sat with Colin for a wh

Colin did not know how to respond. Although Olivia was talking about Snowball, Colin had the feeling that she was talking about her own funeral instead. "I've got it, Olivia.""It has to be the tallest tree in the yard. That tree blooms with branches full of plum blossoms in the winter. "The scent of the flowers goes well with the cold white snow. I'll be waiting for her there." No one would have guessed that she meant she would be waiting there after she was dead. "Okay, but you can also visit Snowball when you are free." Olivia took off her diamond earrings and handed them to Colin. "I came out in a rush today and don't have anything on me. "But please hand these earrings to Snowball. She has always loved shiny little trinkets since she was a kitten." " … Okay. If you're too busy, I can also bring her to you if you give me an address. I bet she'll be delighted to see you." "No need." Olivia was running out of time. Ethan arrived just in time to see Colin pulling Ol

Colin's embrace was not as sturdy as Ethan's. His arms were more slender. Olivia knew that Ethan was extremely possessive. So she pulled away from Colin as soon as she steadied herself. "Thanks, it's cold out here, let's go back in." Olivia went back to the dining hall. Ethan, who was standing there a while ago, was no longer there. Colin wanted to get Olivia some food the moment she sat down. She saw Calvin approaching her, so she didn't stop him either. Calvin sat down elegantly with a glass of wine in his hand. They looked like two friends bantering. Olivia whispered, "Have you found anything out, Calvin?" "Yeah, I received some information before I boarded the ship. I just didn't have the opportunity to talk to you about it. "It is like we guessed. Someone swapped out your medical examination report. "Although he kept his head down, we managed to get a few pictures. Take a look and see if you recognize him." Calvin showed Olivia a picture that had been magnifie
Even After Death Chapter 123
Olivia was confused. Wasn't Colin getting her some food? What happened? She asked where he was and quickly went to look for him. Olivia found Colin in a room. He was leaning on a couch weakly. His face was flushed, and his voice became soft. It sounded like the purring of a cat.He was staring at her helplessly. "Olivia, I feel hot." She placed her hand on his forehead to check. It was indeed burning up. "Other than the fever, does anything else hurt?" They were only outside for a short while.He shouldn't have gotten sick so quickly unless he had some preexisting conditions. Olivia began practicing what she learned as a medical student.She racked her brain to think of any conditions that would cause a fever to flare up quickly. Colin unfastened his tie. He also unbuttoned the collar of his shirt and revealed his Adam's apple. He placed his hand over Olivia's and tugged. "Olivia, I feel like I'm on fire." Olivia finally knew what was wrong. She quickly pulle

Ethan looked at Colin, who was in the way. He pulled him to the side and even kicked him once. Then, he ordered, "Drag him away." Brent saw that the mood wasn't right. He quickly dragged Colin away and closed the door behind him. Ethan leaned forward and slowly approached Olivia. The temperature dropped as he got closer. He gritted his teeth and ran his fingers across Olivia's face. Ethan then said in an emotionless voice, "Do you know what I hate the most?" Olivia met his angry face and said, "Betrayal and scheming behind your back." He reached out, held her chin, and said, "I've told you before. Do not test me, Olivia." Olivia wanted to tell him about her discovery. But the evidence she had on her could only prove that her medical examination report had been swapped out. She didn't have any hard evidence. In the end, he would just blame her for telling lies. She swallowed the words that she was about to say. She preferred to humiliate him after the truth was out

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. Back then, she simply assumed that it was due to her health and talent, but it turned out that he had known her identity all along!The purpose of the human modification project was to resurrect Natalie!

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. However, the result of the discussion between David and Mason surprised everyone.Even though David wasn't acknowledged as one of the Fordhams, he wasn't planning to change his surname to Heath.He saw himself as a Fordham because his mother married Douglas.Nevertheless, he didn't mind his family being relatives with the Fordham family.Mason was a little disappointed, but he still respected David's decision because he knew how well Douglas treated David's family.Mason asked the Fordham family to sta

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.

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
Even After Death Chapter 1666
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
