Even After Death Chapter 1265
Olivia knew the situation was spiraling beyond her control. How could she tolerate such audacity from a man? The moment Wayne's touch nearly grazed her skin, she kneed him fiercely in the abdomen. She took advantage of Wayne's momentary pain and kicked him away.She scrambled off the bed, panicked, and quickly grabbed a bottle of red wine. Not caring about the vintage bottle, she smashed it against the table. Wine spilled everywhere. She pointed the jagged edge at her own neck and sternly warned, "Don't come any closer!"All this happened in the blink of an eye. Wayne knew she had a fiery temper but had not anticipated her being this fierce. "Don't be rash. I won't touch you. Just put the bottle down."Olivia would not trust the words of a man inflamed with desire. Her voice was cold. "I'm warning you, if you lay a hand on me again, I'll end my life right in front of you.""You won't do it. You have children. How could you bear to leave them?" Wayne challenged."I might have vul

Perhaps due to her intense reaction last night, Wayne did not appear in front of Olivia all day. Olivia spent her day at the Royal Hospital teaching everyone the acupuncture technique. Just after dusk, Wayne awaited Olivia's arrival so that she could administer acupuncture. He thought about various apology strategies.His heart raced involuntarily when he heard footsteps approaching. He stood with his back to the person coming and adopted a harsh tone. "I was wrong about last night. Don't get the wrong idea. It's not that I like you. I just have a thing for married women!" he said.He was even prepared to tarnish his own image to reassure Olivia. His claim of liking married women was merely an excuse. Wayne waited for Olivia's response. His ears turned red as he continued gruffly, "So you can rest assured, I won't make any moves on you. I keep the promises I make."Why are you silent? I've apologized. What more do you want?" he exclaimed angrily.He turned in anger, only to fin

Olivia had a plan. "Wait for his insomnia to kick in, then give him the sedative." She calculated in her mind and continued, "You get ready. If I'm going to act in three days, I'll place a red anthurium here. If the mission is canceled, I'll put a magnolia.""I'll wait for your good news," Undecim responded.After their brief meeting, they parted ways. Olivia returned to her room to rest. Wayne did not visit her that night, and she wondered if he had slept.The next day, she went to the Royal Hospital as usual. Over the past few days, Olivia had gotten along well with everyone. They had elevated her from Ms. Ophelia to Dr. Ophelia in their address.Wayne had some time to visit the hospital. He saw Olivia turn sideways and explain medical knowledge to someone. She patiently compared two similar herbs, and the admiration was evident on the face of a young medical student who had just joined.Wayne pondered why he was drawn to a woman who wasn't even strikingly beautiful. Perhaps i

Olivia wanted to come up with other reasons to find out Ethan's whereabouts. To her surprise, he showed up himself.After spending time with Olivia, Grant discovered that her medical skills were better than his. Thus, he let her treat Ethan rest assuredly.After all, Ethan was a nobleman. Grant couldn't afford to let mistakes happen. In a soft voice, he asked, "Dr. Ophelia, how is he?"Olivia let go of Ethan after checking his heart rate. With an indifferent expression, she answered, "He's fine. He must have fainted suddenly because of exhaustion and low blood sugar."Everyone let out a sigh of relief. Ethan was an important figure in Arlandia. He always wore a mask and rarely showed himself to others.It would be bad if something happened to him.Olivia pulled out a few acupuncture needles and inserted them into Ethan's skin to stimulate strategic points throughout his body. Soon, he woke up and began to put on an act."What happened?""Mr. Miller, you fainted just now. Luckil

Marvin leaned closer to Olivia. Excitedly, he asked, "Ms. Ophelia, what topic are you thinking about? Can I join in the discussion? I've never heard of the Snowdrop you mentioned previously. You know so many herbs."Olivia felt even more awkward now. The topic she was thinking about was a bit explicit.After all, she couldn't tell Marvin about how she was planning to tear open Ethan's clothes and kiss him to relieve her lovesickness."Let's discuss this next time."After taking a few bites of her food, Olivia started preparing Wayne's herbs. Fanning the fire, she waited patiently for Ethan.With his identity, he would definitely need to socialize with Wayne. Even though they despised each other to the point they wanted to stab one another, they had to have a meal together, chat, shake hands, and put on a fake smile. After eating, they had many more things to do.Ethan and Wayne were absent-minded.Wayne asked, "It must've been tough for you to come all the way here. Please forgi

Olivia didn't pretend to be shy. Wrapping her arms around Ethan's neck, she welcomed him. The kiss ended when she was almost out of breath.Out of energy, she remained in his embrace and listened to his strong heartbeat."Ethan, I missed you." Olivia smiled sweetly in Ethan's embrace.Ethan, who was initially angry, finally calmed down. "Do you know what you're doing? I haven't had a good night's sleep for the past several days!"Like a cat, Olivia rubbed her face against his. "I'm sorry.""When you rub your face against mine, I always feel like I'm having an affair."Ethan frowned. He didn't like Olivia using someone else's face to be intimate with him.Reaching out, he wanted to pull Olivia's mask off her face, but she stopped him. "No. my appearance can't be destroyed here. There aren't any materials for me to restore it."Ethan pulled her to the couch to sit down. "Now can you tell me why you need his ring?"Olivia jumped onto him again. "We haven't seen each other for a l

Suddenly, Ethan realized his relationship with Olivia had changed a lot. Although he liked her in the past, his feelings for her were more like doting on a pet.She could accompany him and lift his mood. On the other hand, he was her shelter. He never thought about what she needed.After leaving Ethan, Olivia became more confident and free-spirited. She was outstanding. He had fallen even more in love with her, but at the same time, he felt afraid.In their relationship, he had a low status.He knelt on one knee on the couch. His hands roamed from Olivia's neck to her body. He mumbled, "Liv, can you spare me more of your love?"Olivia was like his God. Holding his face, she said, "Be good."Many days had passed since they last met. The two let themselves free and used their bodies to express their longing for each other.Right then, someone knocked on the door. Brent's voice sounded. "Mr. Miller, Wayne is arriving soon."Ethan frowned. Squatting on the ground, he helped Olivia

Ethan looked at Wayne to see his reaction. They had known each other for many years. He knew that the latter had a bad temperament.In the past, even when Wayne had nothing, he wouldn't let anyone treat him that way, let alone now.The people who had reprimanded him before were already dead.However, after Olivia scolded him, he was not angry. Alan and Ike, who were behind him, remained the same expression. So, it wasn't Olivia's first time scolding him.It didn't seem that Wayne only liked Olivia.Men would understand other men well. If Wayne didn't like Olivia a lot, he wouldn't let her step on him. Ethan curled the fingers that were on his pants.He needed to take Olivia away as soon as possible.Kelvin was astonished. Why would Wayne listen to Olivia's words? It was too strange.In Kelvin's opinion, Wayne was like a rebel in high school. He wouldn't listen to any teacher. All of a sudden, he became obedient. It didn't make sense.Brent's gaze darted back and forth betw

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. When the revenge was finally over, she felt hollow on the inside. …Yarrows reached their peak of beauty during the season, dancing along the wind.

Warren was so blinded by love that he didn't realize that Olivia had spent the last two years setting this up.The moment he saw Olivia nestling in Ethan's arms, he knew that his identity had been exposed since the beginning.It was time to end all of this.Although the Fordham family had won the fight, they sustained heavy casualties. Brandon and Deborah, together with Jacqueline, had hurt and killed countless people. Quinn became a sacrifice, never waking up again despite her young age. Olivia placed a bouquet before Quinn's gravestone. "Rest in peace, Quinn. I'll take good care of the family. Don't worry."The breeze carried a leave before it landed on Olivia's shoulder, as though trying to respond to Olivia.Douglas reunited with the family, and Natalie was finally buried in peace. It was a private funeral, but Mason paid a visit. Mason and Douglas looked at each other. They were both important to Natalie, and they finally met each other after her death. With reddene

"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! The thought of it gave her goosebumps.To think that he had made so many preparations just to resurrect Natalie…Even Olivia was deceived. She took the human modification project at face value; she didn't think much about it! "Let Natalie go, Louis. She's been gone for years. She could be watching us from up

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. "Any news about Mom's whereabouts?" asked Olivia. "Avery found something, but he's still trying to

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
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
