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.

    Jeff looked very dashing in the picture on his grave. It was a picture of him before everything that happened to the Fordham family. Olivia bowed slightly. "Dad, would you be angry if I told you that I got back with Ethan?"Although Marina was the one who indirectly caused Jeff's death, Leia was the one who arranged his traffic accident. Ethan was the one who bankrupted the Fordham family. Olivia never forgot about what Millers had done. She knew she should stay away from Ethan, but she just couldn't seem to sever ties with him."Dad, you're such a gentle person. I know you wouldn't blame me even if you were alive. You only ever wanted me to be happy. "But Dad, it has been so many years, and I still can't let it go. You would've been able to witness the birth of my children if you had held on for a little longer. "By the way, you don't know this yet, right? Connor, whom you have seen pictures of, is actually my son. I hope this will bring you some peace of mind."Dad, how'

    Wayne was a completely different person than when he was in Raka. Back then, he was arrogant and unhinged. He always had his collar unbuttoned and a cigarette in his mouth like a ruffian.At that moment, he wore a black suit with a white flower in his breast pocket. His hair was carefully styled. He stood out even among a group of men in black suits. His presence made the atmosphere feel more solemn.Judging from his bloodshot eyes, Wayne really cared about the person in the grave. Olivia was surprised. Intel on Wayne didn't indicate that he was connected to anyone in Arlandia. And if this person meant so much to him, why would the person be buried in Aldenvine and not Raka?Olivia was nervous, but she managed to keep a straight face. "I didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Maxwell. And the grave you're visiting belongs to…"She was just making small talk so the atmosphere wouldn't be so awkward. Unexpectedly, Wayne told his bodyguards to move aside. "If you're so curio

    Linus was making a report back in the Heath Residence."Wayne and his men arrived at the airport at 3:00 pm.""That's quite punctual of him. He comes to visit that grave this time of the year every year. But this time, he also asked to visit me."Linus frowned. "Is it because Olivia stole his ring?""He's the leader of a nation. He won't bring up something like that without concrete proof."Mason squeezed a stress ball and said, "But just to be safe, tell Olivia to stay away. It's best if she doesn't meet with him.""Olivia didn't come back last night. She should be at her own home. I'll check."Linus called Ethan. "Is Olivia with you?""She's at home.""Ask her not to come to the Heath residence today. Wayne will be coming.""Understood."Ethan had been busy the entire day. He looked at the calendar. He had forgotten something. Olivia was still sleeping when he left in the morning. She had been exhausted recently, so he didn't wake her. She said she would continue dec

    Olivia kept a straight face and didn't respond to Wayne's probing. Instead, she reminded him, "Mr. Maxwell, this is Aldenvine."Her expression was calm. She had cried a little when she was visiting Jeff's grave. Her eyes and nose were slightly reddened. Her eyes were also moist from the crying.She was like a cute little bunny.But Wayne knew full well that the woman standing before him wasn't a harmless little bunny. She was the S-ranked assassin, Septem. Before he arrived in Arlandia, he had already looked through all the intel regarding Olivia. Although she was an assassin, she never killed innocent people. All the missions she took were of targets who were completely evil—bullies that preyed on the weak. Olivia still had kindness in her heart. Or else, she could've killed him at any time while she was with him.Wayne smelled Olivia's scent. "Why are you afraid, Ms. Fordham? I was just saying hello."Then, he took a couple of steps back. "Let's go. I'll escort Ms. F

    "Sure thing, Mr. Maxwell."Ike shot a glance at Olivia with a complicated expression.Wayne let go of Olivia. "If you please, Dr. Ophelia."Olivia looked at the bodyguarding surrounding them. She had no chance of escaping. Wayne didn't give her an option. She was forced into the car. He also got in and sat beside her. Seeing her nervous expression, Wayne chuckled. "What? Are you afraid of me?"Olivia leaned on the door as much as possible as she tried to distance herself from him. But the car was only so big, there was nowhere for her to hide.She only brought her keys up the hill because her pockets were small. Her phone was in her car. She didn't expect to meet Wayne, after all.Olivia reassured herself. She was Mason's granddaughter, so Wayne wouldn't dare to do anything to her while they were in Aldenvine.Even though that was what she thought, she couldn't help but feel a little scared. She sat up straight and looked straight ahead."Of course that's not the case."

    The three people in the car were shocked by this sudden development. Olivia would already be dead if the windows weren't bulletproof. "Watch out!"That bullet was an armor-piercing round. It wasn't enough to punch through the window, but it was embedded into it. Cracked appeared all around the bullet. Then, a second bullet and a third one followed. The glass finally broke with a loud crash. Wayne reacted quickly. When the first shot was fired, he immediately pulled Olivia down to the floor of the car and pressed against her. The gunshots didn't stop coming. They broke through the left window and even shot through the one on the right. Even the doors were being riddled with bullets. It was total chaos. Ike steadied the car. "Be careful, Mr. Maxwell!" Wayne turned his gaze to look at Olivia, who was under him. He thought a woman would be nervous in such a situation.Unexpectedly, she looked angry. She yelled, "I told you I didn't want to get in your car!"Olivia was in

    Olivia had a bad feeling when the gunshots stopped. The enemy was so determined. Surely, they knew the car had bulletproof windows. She thought about what she would do if she were in the enemy's shoes. Olivia immediately understood when she looked at the gaping hole that used to be the window. "Wayne, you have to cover up the window," Olivia reminded him with a frown."Don't worry. My men aren't worthless. If he wanted to go for a frontal assault, there shouldn't be any snipers. He only has a window of several seconds if he wants to get in close and personal."Wayne had a triumphant smile on his face as he raised his head to look at the two bulletproof windows that were shattered. "He already missed his chance to do that."The cars of Wayne's bodyguards had already blocked off both sides of Wayne's car before the enemy could throw any explosives into his car.As expected, there wasn't any more gunfire. Olivia looked at Wayne, who was still on top of her. Then, she kicked

    Jack had never felt so conflicted before. This was his best chance of killing Wayne. But if he threw the grenade, Olivia would die as well.The memories of his time with Olivia flashed in his mind. She really thought of him as a brother. While he hesitated, Wayne's bodyguards were able to catch up and line up a shot at him.Olivia could only watch as the bullet flew toward Jack.She screamed, "No!"But there was nothing she could've done as Jack got shot and fell over. Only the driver was left speeding away.The cold wind blew toward Olivia as tears streamed down her face. How could this happen?If she weren't in the car, Jack would've killed Wayne. He wouldn't have hesitated and gotten himself killed. A few years ago, when she mentioned that she wanted to join the Black Ravens, Jack told her, "The biggest mistake an assassin can make is to be emotional. Only death awaits an assassin who lets his emotion dictate his actions."Even so, he still hesitated when he saw her.W

    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.

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.

    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.

    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.
