Marina screamed and woke up from her dream—no—nightmare. She found herself back at the Carlton residence, not on that operating table."You're finally awake, Marina." Otto's gaze on her was soft."I'm alive?" She glanced at her perfectly intact limbs. Those few hours were basically hell. She didn't know what Olivia had done to her."Silly you. Of course, you are. Why don't you try walking around?"Her head felt dizzy from the confusion.Did Olivia treat her legs? Would Olivia be so kind as to do so?Lifting the blanket, Marina noticed the machinery legs replacing her shins.She drew a sharp breath in and slowly got out of bed. The solid touch, which had been absent for years, brought her to tears."How do you feel? Good?" asked Otto. "These are artificial legs, but I heard that they are more advanced than anything you can find in the market. You can walk and jump and run as you like!"They function better than those of average people. If you're bothered by the appearance

"Erina? What about her?" Marina didn't know what happened while she was unconscious.Brent sent Erina back to the Carlton residence. She was still in low spirits. As soon as they arrived home, she locked herself up in her room."I'm sure Liv has told you about Connor's true identity, that she is his mother. In the past, I made a foolish yet grave mistake. "Kurt entrusted you to me, so I listened to you every time and was lenient to you. And I hurt her in the end. I don't want to upset her anymore."Marina's countenance turned cold. "What do you mean?""You gave Erina her name. At that time, I thought I would marry you to give her a perfect childhood. "Now, we have nothing to do with each other. I've explained everything that happened in the past as well. You can give her a new surname, Carlton or Fordham."Her heart throbbed at his words. In a trembling voice, she asked, "What about me? Do you not love me? Not even once?""We have known each other since we were young. It'

Marina's body was working fine bar one—she couldn't control her legs. "What did you do to me?""Try walking backward."They could move when she was retreating, but they stopped whenever she was heading for the gates."I've set your mobility strictly within the Carlton residence. Ms. Fordham is a genius indeed. She resolved a big problem of mine."Although Marina had known that Olivia would never let her go that easily, she hadn't expected Olivia to take it this far.Olivia gave Marina freedom yet caged her in the house at the same time.It was late at night by the time Olivia arrived at the Heath residence. She was tired from performing such a surgery—which needed a few hands—all alone.Not only did it take a toll on her body, but also on her mentality.In fact, attaching a prosthetic leg wasn't her forte, so it was more tiring than usual surgeries.She fell into a deep sleep as soon as she flopped in bed. Since there were people taking care of Molly, there shouldn't be an

Olivia ran at full speed. By the time she reached the room, everyone was there except Molly and Yale.A pungent smell filled the room. The warm temperature made it so bad that Olivia felt sick to the stomach.Suppressing the nausea, she entered the room. Mason was standing by the window, frowning.Linus guarded the door to the toilet, where a crouching Krystal was throwing up as Tatiana patted her back.Despite the deep-seated resentment, Krystal was still the daughter she raised with devotion and love."What happened to you?" Olivia walked into the toilet.Krystal grasped Olivia by the sleeve immediately. "Olivia, save me! I don't want a miscarriage!""What happened?""My stomach hurt, and I kept throwing up. I know. It's Yale. "I bet he wants me in prison. He added something to the food! He's trying to kill my baby to avenge Molly!"Olivia didn't jump to conclusions because, to her, Yale didn't appear to be rash enough to do anything in the Heath residence.Furthermore, h

As much as she had loved Krystal, Tatiana was brimming with resentment because Krystal was the cause of Molly's near-death incident. To think that Krystal, the fake Ms. Heath, was dreaming to be the real one. Ridiculous.Even after Krystal was taken to the hospital, the sheer sight of the room infuriated Tatiana. "Clear out this room. Sell the jewelry and bags if possible and burn the others. They're bad omen," she ordered the butler."Yes, Mrs. Heath.""Olivia, I'm terribly sorry for waking you up at this late hour." Tatiana had softened her edges toward Olivia after the series of incidents."Don't mind it. This is my duty." Olivia rubbed her eyes, returning to her room to get back to sleep.Morning came. While the ladies were having breakfast, they received a piece of news."Mrs. Heath, something came up. Krystal escaped!" the bodyguard reported."How come?" Tatiana set her cutleries down."She did undergo a few examinations. But there was an influx of patients in the ER

The Heaths' investigation caused people to feel uneasy. Molly was a little worried about it.Yale comforted her gently. "No one can hurt you if you stay in the Heath Residence.""Yale, I know you've already sent people to look for Krystal. What would you do to her when you find her?"Yale was overjoyed that Krystal lost the Heath family's protection. Without that, she would be doomed when she fell into his hands. It had been so many days. And even though Molly's baby had to be aborted, Yale would feel intense emotions, including remorse, anger, and bloodlust, in the middle of the night.Molly knew what he was going through. That was why she would always put up a brave front when there were people around her. She didn't want him to worry. She was the victim but was trying her best to help everyone else feel better.Yale was consumed by darkness, and Molly was his only light. But her presence wasn't enough to drive away all the darkness in his heart. His hatred was still fes

Wayne had been building military bases in areas surrounding Arlandia. It was obvious what he was up to.Ethan would never talk about classified information like this with Olivia in the past. But things had changed. He was willing to talk to her as an equal on these matters at that point."There are five superpowers in the world right now. Other than Arlandia, there's Wayne's Carathia and Veutron, where the princess you saved hailed from."Two other countries have claimed to remain neutral, but they have been making moves in secret. "Where there are people, there is conflict. Countries certainly are the same.""In terms of military might, Zelotria and Hucreyle are the strongest. Are they the ones?""That's right. There's someone you know in Zelotria. Do you remember Avery Fordham? "The Fordham family is the most influential family in Zelotria. They are a force to be reckoned with, be it financially or politically."The mention of Avery sent Olivia down memory lane. It felt l

Olivia looked worried. "The day after tomorrow is fine. But… you have to go get the kids.""Why?"Olivia bit her lip. "There's a troublesome patient."Ethan narrowed his eyes. "A man?"All of a sudden, Olivia felt a little guilty. She shifted her gaze and said, "I've performed so many surgeries on male and female patients alike."Ethan leaned in toward her. "But this man is different to you.""Yeah. He's more troublesome than most other patients. That's why I remember him vividly.""Liv, how many men have you messed around with?"Ethan instinctively felt like there was more to the man in question. Or else, Olivia wouldn't look so wary.Olivia dove into Ethan's embrace. "There has never been anyone else. It's only ever been you."That night, she didn't return to the Heath Residence. She shared a night of passion with Ethan. Back when they were newlyweds, Ethan doted on her, but their feelings were too simple and frail. It couldn't weather the storm that was life. After a

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. 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.

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.

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.

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
