At first, Ethan also thought that it was most probably some bold kidnappers. As days passed, he got less confident about his guess. He feared that it might be his enemies.He was worried that a box containing their bodies or body parts would show up on his doorstep one day.The current situation was like casting a stone into water. There was no reaction, and no one knew what was happening in the water.Ethan's patience and wits, which he took pride in, began to crumble as time passed.He didn't dare fall asleep. Once he did, the bloody scenes he experienced before would have Olivia and Connor in them.On the seventh day, Ethan finally collapsed. He hadn't eaten or drunk anything in days, and he didn't even sleep.He watched the surveillance footage time and again, so much so that his eyes were bloodshot. The men he sent out never brought back any useful info either.On the second day of the new year, Brent found Ethan lying unconscious in the bathroom. He hastily called over the

Madam Burgess hastily gave Ethan a quick rundown of how she found Connor. Ethan frowned even deeper. "You didn't see anyone other than him?""No. When I found Master Connor, he was crying. He was also holding a hydrogen balloon in his hand. Oh, right, he also kept calling Mama.""Mama?" Ethan thought.Connor had never been willing to call Marina Mama, so the person he was calling for couldn't have been her. It could only be Olivia.Brent, who had already brought men to investigate the scene, reported to Ethan right away. "Mr. Miller, I've checked the surveillance."Ms. Fordham was the one who sent Master Connor back. She purposefully left Master Connor on Madam Burgess' way home from grocery shopping."That way, Madam Burgess would notice him.""Was there anyone else besides her?" Ethan asked."No.""Keep investigating."Ethan was even more confused now. Could it be just like Marina said, that Olivia had hired people to kidnap Connor?If she wanted to threaten him, why would

Meanwhile, Olivia was leaving via the underground passage. She noticed that all the exits of the mall were sealed.Just as expected, Ethan had no intentions of letting her go.Ethan must have thought that she was shopping at the mall, so he immediately sent his men to seal the mall. He wanted to block her off.But he didn't know that she had already changed her clothes and left through the safety corridor.She went to the place where she promised to meet Jack. She went to the market nearest to the harbor to buy the things she wanted.Ethan searched for a long while, but he found no trace of Olivia.Holding in his anger, Ethan checked every surveillance camera they missed. Finally, he found Olivia at a junction.Even though it was taken from the back, Ethan could recognize her right away. He also saw a man walking very close to her.Ethan punched the screen so hard that it shattered.The sound of the screen shattering startled everyone. Looking at Ethan's bleeding hand, Brent s

Olivia couldn't make out Ethan's expressions anymore, but she felt that he was smiling.When Ethan had finished speaking, he looked at Brent. "Is the speedboat not ready yet?"He wouldn't let Olivia leave just like that. But had just finished talking when his sight turned black. He collapsed out of the blue.It was entirely within expectations. After all, Ethan hadn't slept or eaten properly for so many days. He had a fever as well.Brent watched the speedboat getting farther away. He sighed helplessly."Run away, Mrs. Miller," he thought.Ethan's words still lingered in Olivia's mind. The speedboat had traveled a long way, but she couldn't feel any warmth in her body.She sat where she was, curled up into a ball. Her soul seemed to have been sucked out.Crouching in front of her, Jack gave her some tea. It was only then that she felt warmth. "If you're scared, I can send you back."Olivia took a sip. The sweetness chased away some of the darkness in her heart."I don't want

Olivia would feel much better staying on the island.She didn't want to leave for the time being, no matter what reason it was.She watched as the sky turned from dark to bright. As the sun rose, Olivia strolled around the island.Everyone was nice to her. They enthusiastically invited her into their homes for breakfast. They also thanked her for delivering some supplies.Jerry went out even earlier than Olivia. He sat by the beach as he doodled with the art supplies she bought.His youthful and handsome face was filled with excitement. "Ms. Olivia, how's this?"He had never formally learned to draw before, but he was talented beyond belief.His black and white drawings in the past were amazing enough. So now that he could color them, they looked even better.Olivia nodded, feeling comforted. "You draw very well."If such talent could be coupled with more knowledge, Jerry would be able to achieve big things in the future."You taught me well, Ms. Olivia. Will you keep staying

Jack swiftly led her into the forest. There was a treehouse in the forest, which Jerry showed her two days ago.Jack swept the fallen leaves away. Then, he led her into the underground secret base.It was completely dark underground, so Jack lit an oil lamp. The warm glow brightened up the whole base. When Olivia saw the things stored there, she was shocked."Are these all yours?" she asked, pointing at the firearms and weapons hanging on the wall.The man responded in a low voice without explaining too much. Grabbing a small handgun, he placed it in Olivia's hand."The truth always sides with the strong. No matter what happens in the future, you need a weapon to protect yourself."Touching the heavy gun, Olivia had a nervous look on her face. She gulped. "You're giving this to me?"Under the mask, Jack's dark eyes gleamed earnestly. He said in a cold voice, "If you can't escape, I hope that it'll be your final way out."He pointed the gun at his chest. "Remember this spot and

"Yes, that's it. Be more determined. If you don't have the resolve, you'll still be the one getting hurt next time. Remember your past."With a bang, Olivia fired the gun. Her arms turned numb. She wasn't used to the strong recoil yet.Even though she didn't hit the bullseye, she managed to hit the target."Well done. You have to believe in yourself."Jack stood behind her again, adjusting her posture. Then, he said softly in her ear, "Olivia, may you be your own sun in the future."You won't need to borrow light from anyone else. You were born with wings, so you should be soaring in the sky. Don't stay on the ground any further."Olivia looked at the target in the distance. She pretended that it was her current self.She didn't know when it started, but her brilliant self had turned meek. She couldn't do anything but be controlled by others.Not just Ethan, but even Olivia herself hated what she looked like right now.Shooting forward, the bullet hit the bullseye."See? This

A naked and strong body came into view. Jack's skin was a little darker than Ethan's, and it was genuinely tanned.His shoulders were broad, and his waist was slim. The muscles on his chest were well-defined. Like Ethan, there were some scars on his body as well.The water droplets rolled down his well-defined abs. The man was full of masculine charm.He held a cage in his arms. Behind him, the sun shone on the sea below, creating glowing ripples of light.Even though she couldn't see his face, she could sense the joy coming from his thin face."It's a huge harvest."Jack stepped onto shore with his bare feet. The seawater streamed down the legs of his combat pants. With his movements, his muscles were displayed clearly.Olivia couldn't help but look away. "I'll light a fire to roast the fish with.""Okay, then I'll gut the fish. We're in luck. We caught some crabs too."Olivia gathered some sticks and dried wood. She hastily brought the firewood back, but her stomach flipped.
