Marina no longer hated Olivia as she used to. Instead, she seemed to trust Olivia a lot. "I can feel my legs getting better.

"Yesterday, I was able to stand for a few seconds with the help of a cane. When the results are out later, please help me take a look and see if my surgery can be scheduled earlier."

Olivia said calmly, "We're not rushing here. Lie down first, and I'll perform acupuncture on you."

"Alright."

Marina wholly trusted Olivia. She only wished to get better as soon as possible, so she wasn't even scared of pain now.

"You look quite young, but you have decent medical skills." Marina was in a good mood, and she surprisingly started a conversation with Olivia.

"I'm not that great."

"You're too humble. If you manage to cure me, I'll thank you profusely."

Enduring the pain, Marina asked, "How long do you think it'll take to be able to stand on my legs?"

"Soon."

Olivia swiftly inserted the needle. Then, she turned to look at Marina. "Are you that eager to stand?"

    It was a villa. Despite the cold winter, it was well-maintained. Fresh flowers bloomed throughout the year.Florence's guard was still up against Olivia. "You're only in charge of Ms. Molly's well-being. You're refrained from looking around and asking questions you shouldn't be asking."Olivia couldn't help the chuckle. "Honestly speaking, a lot of people are seeking help from me. Ms. Molly isn't the only one. If she wasn't a lady, I wouldn't have come."Florence sneered. "How skillful can you be at such a young age? You don't even work at a hospital. You're here simply because Ms. Molly is naive.""Whatever." Olivia entered the room, where the warm wair wrapped around her.Molly rushed over to hold her hands. "You're here! Sorry, I couldn't welcome you outside because my body is weak.""I understand." Olivia's eyes of scrutiny surveyed the area. There were only a few maids around. No one else was there."You live alone in this huge villa?""I—"Before Molly could answer, Fl

    Yale's heart clenched tightly the instant he noticed Olivia's presence, but he managed to recenter himself within seconds.It would draw suspicion if he withdrew his arm now.As an afterthought, he naturally placed his arm over Molly's shoulders."Molly, this is Vanessa. She's young but a skillful doctor."Brightening up, Molly looked at Florence. "I told you! She's a miracle doctor."He naturally introduced, "Vanessa, this is my sister, Molly. I didn't expect the miracle doctor she mentioned to be you."Molly's expression didn't change because she knew their romantic relationship should be kept a secret. Otherwise, Yale would be in trouble."Yale, do you know her?""Yeah."Olivia masked her surprise. "So you're Ms. Kingston. What a fateful encounter this is."She hadn't expected the woman she encountered in the hospital by chance to be Yale's sister.Speaking of, the Kingstons did adopt a daughter. Her face remained unknown because she rarely left the house.Judging from Y

    "Molly has a weak body. She loves quiet places, so she's taking a break here. The maids are mostly around. I visit occasionally. I heard that a miracle doctor was going to treat her, so I dropped by to make sure it wasn't a fraud," Yale explained."I see." Olivia's emotions remained undecipherable to him.Her poker face made it difficult to catch on the nuance of her expression.He was losing confidence. He even assumed that Olivia came under Mason's orders."What's wrong? Does this have to do with Molly's illness?" He was clearly mocking her for using her identity as the doctor as an excuse."Yes." She didn't hide the truth. "I'm curious what the people around her have to do with her pregnancy. Could you give me an answer?"Molly's eyes widened as she sensed his hostility toward Olivia.But why? Olivia was a nice person."Do you know how she got pregnant?"His fingers dug into his skin. He already guessed that Olivia knew Molly was pregnant.Still, he would never reveal th

    Yale slowly became serious. "What do you mean?"Olivia's gaze swept across the surrounding maids. "Mr. Yale, can I have a moment with you?""Come with me."Molly wanted to tag along, but he told her to rest downstairs. He wasn't sure if Olivia was going to coerce him into something or not.Olivia followed him to the study. He locked the door.Now that they were alone, he showed his true colors. "Ms. Fordham, what are you up to? Why did you go through so much trouble to approach my sister? "Even if you hold grudges against me, just come at me. Molly is innocent. She doesn't know how dark the world is out there. She has nothing to do with anything. If you lay a finger on her, I…"A gun pointed at her head. His voice sent chills to the bone. "I will make you regret living."Surprisingly, she appeared calm. "If I were you, I wouldn't have been this impulsive, Mr. Yale. I've never dragged Molly into the fray between you and Ethan. It's my first time meeting her today. She almost fa

    Yale's hands balled into fists before he slammed the table.His expression was grim. "Just who is that evil person? How could he poison such a young child?""It might have something to do with her true family. She's lucky. If she was fed for another year and a half, she'd be gone by now.""She was always ill when we first adopted her. She was sent to the ICU several times. She was like a fragile doll." Those memories were painful for him to reminisce. "But she's a good girl. She never complains."Right then, he suddenly questioned why he was telling her all this. He almost exposed himself. Fortunately for him, Olivia didn't think much about it. All her focus was on Molly. "You're a good brother, though."He switched the topic. "If it is as you said, could you remove the poison?"She shook her head. "Her metabolism has broken down the poison. It's like water dripping on a rock. Making a dent out of it can happen—though it's time-consuming—but even if you stop the water from dr

    That question put Yale in a difficult position. "That baby is an accident. The father is dead. I've been looking after Molly for years, so I think I can decide for her as her guardian."According to the rumors, Molly hadn't married yet. Yale could be thinking of her reputation, so he wasn't willing to reveal much.As a woman herself, Olivia could understand. She had been through it and didn't want others to suffer the same.Thus, she didn't pry further into the matter."Fine. I can see that Ms. Molly is a kind person. She seems to care a lot about the baby. I'll leave the decision to you and her. If you're up for the abortion, you can hit me up to look after her then. If she recovers well, there could be a chance for another pregnancy.""Really?""I can't guarantee that. I can only say that I'll be in charge of the recovery treatment. As for how much she could recover from it, it depends on her body. The abortion shouldn't be done when she's more than week 12. "It's best to do

    Olivia shook his head, shaking off those preposterous thoughts.There was nothing weird about that scene. Molly's body was weaker than the average person's, and Yale watched her grow up. It could be possible for him to see her as his own sister.It was the same with Jeff and Olivia. Although they didn't share the same blood, they were close. How could she have such immoral thoughts about Yale and Molly?Olivia left the villa, her face cold from the breeze.She turned on the car engine so that the heater could clear the mist of the windows. Rubbing her hands, she took the wheel and stepped on the pedal.Perhaps Molly's saddening story had weighed on her mood.Feeling down, Olivia took herself a drive around this familiar city.Her kids weren't by her side, and Jeff had passed away. Not even her only best friend was there with her.The city gave her a sense of void.While she was waiting for the green light, memories flooded her head.She visited her college and quietly sat

    Ethan wrapped Olivia tightly in his embrace, warming her up.She buried her face in his chest, circling her hands around his waist. "Don't move. Let me hug you."Solitude had been her sole companion all these years, rain or shine.Like a bird flying restlessly, she now hoped for a place to take a break."Okay." He cooperated meekly, hugging her silently in the shade of stars.They knew each other long enough for him to know her like the back of his hand. His deep, masculine voice rang in her ears. "I'm here, Liv."She listened to his pounding heart and stayed that way for a while. It wasn't until Olivia started sweating that she released Ethan."Feeling better?" he asked.She was fully recharged. "Much better. I'm hungry. Anything to eat?""Hold on." He carried her to the couch. She didn't switch the lights on. The starlight projector was enough to light up the whole house.The sound of sizzling came from the kitchen. Soon, Ethan served two plates of steak and took 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.

    "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.

    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

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.

    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
