Meanwhile, Olivia was performing acupuncture on Mason. He didn't even open his eyes when he heard Alfred's report.

"Just leave them be."

Alfred looked at the weather.

"It's below-freezing temperature tonight. If they stay out there for too long…"

"I don't care even if they die outside." Mason opened his eyes abruptly.

He was furious when he thought about how Olivia had kneeled outside the Monroe residence the entire night before.

Olivia was naive. She had thought she would be able to change Tyrell's mind and have him help Jeff for old times' sake.

Saying that he didn't dare to cross the Miller family was just an excuse. He just couldn't be bothered to help.

He had just been promoted and felt good about himself. He felt like there was no more benefit in him helping the Fordham family out.

When his butler told him about Olivia, he had been sipping on some tea.

He said casually, "Let her kneel all she wants. She's still too naive. She'll probably back off when she realizes

    The snow didn't seem like it was going to let up anytime soon. It even started snowing heavier at midnight. The temperature quickly started dropping. Millie's mink coat was already covered in snowflakes. It had never crossed her mind that one day, she would be kneeling at a place like this because of Tyrell.They kneeled for around two hours before she fainted. A guard came over and helped her into the car. Alfred also told them that everyone in the house was asleep and he wouldn't be letting them in.Tyrell could only bring his wife and son back home with a heavy heart. Mason's silence made it clear that there was no room for negotiations. Ethan looked on coldly as Tyrell got into his car. He said, "Brent, the glory days of the Monroe family are over. Go dig up some dirt on them.""Yes, Mr. Miller."Just because Tyrell was a retired government official didn't mean he didn't have any skeletons in his closet. He was just lucky that he didn't experience too many setbacks in his

    Luckily, it wasn't the stench of a rotting corpse. It was just the smell of stale, humid air and rotten food.A woman who was extremely frail and unnaturally pale was locked down here with all four of her limbs chained. She sat on the bed, hugging her knees with a blank expression."Stacy!" Felix quickly wheeled himself next to the bed. Even Olivia, who was a seasoned veteran, felt emotional when she saw the state Stacy was in.Neal was such a bastard. He ripped a couple apart, didn't cherish the woman he snatched away, and even abused her so much.It was clear that Stacy had been imprisoned in the basement for quite some time. She was also in shock. She looked at the people who had just entered the room blankly without any reactions. Tears welled up in Olivia's eyes. She asked someone to get a towel to cover up Stacy's nearly naked body.Felix felt terrible. He didn't shy away from her. Instead, he hugged her tightly and comforted her repeatedly. "Don't worry, Stacy. I'm he

    Olivia spaced out as she sat in the corridor. Why did this gathering have to happen at this very point in time?The ringing of bells sounded next to her. Willow had come to check on her. The child noticed that Olivia had a heavy expression on her face, so she rubbed her face against Olivia's hands.Willow lived in the village for a long time, and she was very close with all sorts of animals. She would sometimes act like one.Olivia ruffled her hair with a tender expression."Why aren't you playing with your brothers and sister?"Willow shook her head and made a hand sign. She was worried about Olivia. It was probably because she had heard a little of what the adults were talking about and thought Olivia was feeling sad for someone else. Willow was a very considerate child. She might not be able to speak, but she had a big heart.Olivia lifted her into her arms. "I'm fine. It's just that the fates of others are already determined. I can't save everyone. So, I'm trying my best

    There weren't any complicated designs on the necklace, just a very live-like fish.Olivia raised her head to kiss Ethan's cheek. "I love it. Thanks."Time was running short. She quickly got out of bed and packed her stuff. Before leaving, she went to take a look at the kids.Ethan wanted to send her off, but she turned him down. She went to the harbor alone. She had to reach a transfer station before getting on a direct flight to the island. Olivia changed her appearance on the boat. She took a deep breath and filled her lungs with the cold winter air. She reached her destination after some time. To her surprise, Undecim was already waiting for her there. Olivia smiled when she saw that Undecim was unscathed. "Were you waiting for me?""Of course. Only three S-ranked members are coming this time.""Who else?""You'll know when we get there."Olivia realized that Undecim seemed to be very familiar with the Black Ravens while they were talking. She couldn't help but try to a

    Olivia looked at Wayne cautiously as she moved away. A familiar voice said, "Septim, you won't be able to escape."It was Undecim! He was sitting on a beach chair with his legs crossed. His demeanor suddenly changed. Olivia could guess his identity. "You're the boss of the Black Ravens.""That's right. As you had wished, we met at last!"Olivia glared at him. "You betrayed me!""Septim, there's something I tell everyone that joins the Black Ravens. There are no friends in the organization. There are only transactions."She didn't join the organization to make friends. She only ever wanted to get close to the boss of the organization. Never did it cross her mind that the boss was also an S-ranked assassin. He even went out on missions with him several times. "The Black Ravens are a group of mercenaries that accept all sorts of missions. Someone asked for you, and that's the mission this time."Undecim said nonchalantly, "Don't blame me. This transaction was too good not to

    Olivia frowned as her expression grew cold. "Are you threatening me?""No. I'm just stating a fact. I went from a nobody that anyone could bully to the position I'm in today. Do you know how much I sacrificed?"I would already be dead if I was a soft person. So, you better listen when I'm talking to you calmly. Or else, I can't guarantee I won't do something extreme."Her kids were her only weakness. She raised her hand and slapped Wayne. "I'll kill you if you dare lay a hand on my kids."Wayne grabbed her wrist tightly. "Dr. Ophelia, I just love this viciousness of yours."Then, he tore off Olivia's mask. "I prefer looking at this face of yours."It was a perfect face, a flawless work of art. Wayne didn't understand how her abdomen could be so flat without any flab even though she had given birth to four children. Even her figure looked like that of a youthful woman. How did she pull it off?"You enjoy taking another man's sloppy seconds so much? You don't think I'm no lo

    Compared to Ethan, Wayne was way more of a ruffian. He didn't adhere to rhyme or reason and only did things based on his mood.A person like him was way more dangerous because he couldn't be tied down by morals or reason.He took Olivia to the bedroom. "You should take a shower. There are clothes for you in the room."Although Wayne had feelings for Olivia, he wasn't in a rush to do anything. Tricking her to get her to the island was already unacceptable for her. He wasn't about to do anything more to her for the time being. Olivia scanned her surroundings. There were some windows and a balcony, but guards stood at their posts below every possible escape route. Even if she managed to knock out the guard and get to the shore, she wouldn't be able to last too long in the ocean without a mode of transportation.Wayne had put a lot of effort into crafting this cage for her. Olivia locked the door and went to the bathtub. She started to think about Stacy, whom she saw in the

    Naturally, Ethan didn't believe it was true. It was too much of a coincidence. He calmed himself down. "That's impossible!"Tears welled up in Kelvin's eyes. "I wish it was impossible as well. You were uneasy when Mrs. Miller left and had some men tail her. "They saw her getting on that helicopter. People from a passing ship recorded footage of the helicopter exploding."As he was talking, Kelvin played the video of the explosion on his phone. No one was seen getting out of the helicopter from the explosion to the crash. Everything happened too suddenly. "I don't believe she's dead. Go look into it. Send people to check."Ethan wanted to call Olivia's phone, but his fingers began to shake uncontrollably. He only managed to get his phone out after several tries. But then, he dropped it on the floor. Kelvin quickly helped him pick it up and handed it to him. "Here you go, Mr. Miller."Ethan reached out with shaking hands and slowly dialed the number he had memorized.

    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

    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
