Alan didn't say anything as he stared at Ike.

Ike glared at him. "Why are you looking at me like that? Am I wrong?"

"Ike, didn't you enjoy the cookies that Dr. Ophelia made? You shouldn't be so rude to someone who offered you hospitality.

"I feel like Mr. Maxwell is happier than before. There's nothing bad about that."

"You're a fool. Don't you know that a forced relationship never ends well?

"Besides, if Mr. Maxwell falls hopelessly in love, his enemies will tear him to pieces. A man like him can't have any weaknesses."

"Even if it isn't Dr. Ophelia, he might fall for some other woman. You can't just expect Mr. Maxwell to be single forever."

Wayne led Olivia to a dilapidated old building with ease. The house would be easily flattened by a typhoon if it was built near the ocean.

There were no elevators in the building, and there were countless ads posted by the stairwell. There were all sorts of odors in the building.

Wayne stopped before a wooden door. He took out a key

    "Mom, she didn't explain the whole picture. She was divorced a long time ago."Jade pulled Wayne's ear. "Didn't you notice that she doesn't have any feelings for you? Whether she has children or if she is married or not, those are all excuses. "Be honest. Did you kidnap her?"Unable to hold it in anymore, Olivia laughed. She never expected Wayne, who didn't seem to fear anything, to be scared of someone."Mom, let go!""Darling, tell me. Did he threaten you to come here? I'll teach him a lesson."Olivia smiled. She knew that Wayne was only behaving respectfully toward Jade. Even if Jade knew the truth, she would only lecture Wayne a little.Also, judging by Wayne's personality, if he listened to Jade, he wouldn't have brought Olivia home without warning. This meant that they were in cahoots with each other, and Jade also wanted Wayne to get a wife.However, Jade was just secretly feeling glad on the inside. She wouldn't actually help Wayne out.Olivia was nice enough to

    Jade was quite straightforward in her speech as well. "I'm talking about those doctors he called over in the past. They think they're mothers or something; they nag so much. "It was so annoying! They kept telling me to quit smoking and drinking. Ugh, those annoying flies!"Olivia knew that. Even though Jade was quite old, other than her liver and lungs, her health was completely fine. Olivia could tell that she took great care of her body.Even though Jade was living in a place like this, it was quite peaceful in the area. There weren't any thieves or robberies that happened as soon as she stepped into this place.This meant that an even more powerful person was protecting this area. That was how Jade managed to live in safety."Mr. Maxwell cares about you, so he's worried about you. I won't tell you to change your lifestyle."But if you trust me, I'll prescribe something for you to maintain your health."Jade nodded enthusiastically. "Good girl. I can see that you ca

    Wayne peeled off the dirty skin on the onion. "I don't know. I was abandoned as soon as I was born because of my weak physique. Someone took me in because I was a boy."But after the family had a son of their own, they sold me off."After some twists and turns, I was abandoned here when I was three. From then on, this place has become my home."He tossed the onion peel into the trash can. "The people here are like weeds in the soil. No matter how difficult their surroundings are, they will give it their all to emerge from the soil."He briefly recounted his tragic past. Olivia knew that it must have been very difficult for him to get to where he was right now.He didn't have a prominent background, and he had to survive by stealing and robbing from young. His story was quite a legend.Olivia examined his face. If he wasn't abandoned by his family, he might have been a child from a wealthy family."Anyway, you should get out of this kitchen. I've been cooking for myself for

    Olivia couldn't deny it because it was the truth.While she was pregnant, Marina happened to return to the country.Marina was pregnant as well. She wanted proof that Ethan would treat her well, so she asked Ethan to cook for her, too.Back then, Ethan was filled with guilt toward Kurt, so he would fulfill any wish Marina had."It's kind of boring talking to you," Olivia grumbled."I hit the nail on the head."Wayne flipped the food in the pan, sending sparks flying. "I won't be like him. I'm like a wolf, you see. As soon as I lock onto a prey, I will never give up on it. I won't be distracted."I'll admit that my background isn't as good as Ethan's. But with my position, I can give you things he won't be able to. I am not inferior to him in this sense."Olivia scoffed. "Men would make empty promises and whisper sweet nothings when they are trying to court women. "How would I know that you're not another Ethan to me? Or do you think that I'm a pure 18-year-old, and I'll f

    Noticing that the meal was ready, Olivia went to wake Jade.Jade had quite a restless sleep on the chair. She even mumbled, "The void holds no troubles…"Olivia gently woke Jade up. "Madam Delaney, the meal is ready."Jade slowly opened her eyes. When she saw the beautiful face in front of her, she subconsciously called out, "Sister."Olivia froze. "What did you just call me?"It was only then that Jade came to her senses. "Did I say anything?""Madam Delaney, you just called me 'Sister.' Did you remember something?""I…" Jade put a hand on her head. She indeed had a dream, and she felt like she was dreaming about a woman. But after she woke up, the dream disappeared, and she couldn't remember anything anymore.Olivia could see how troubled Jade was, and the latter didn't seem to be faking it. By the looks of it, she had roused some of the memories in Jade's subconscious mind."Madam Delaney, let's eat." Olivia didn't dare to shock Jade too much. After all, Olivia wasn

    Wayne could hold his liquor well. But today, he seemed to have gotten drunk.Olivia helped him onto the bed. He gripped her hand tightly, refusing to let go."Let go! I'm warning you, don't do anything funny!" Olivia warned him sternly.Wayne's cheeks were flushed, but he kept mumbling, "Dr. Ophelia, I really do like you. Can you give me a chance?""Sorry." Olivia pried his fingers off of her. Then, she left the room expressionlessly.Compared to Wayne, Olivia was more concerned about Jade.Jade had drunk a few glasses of wine. She was a good drinker, but still, she was quite old, so Olivia was a little worried about her.Jade was lying on the bed, murmuring, "Sis, don't leave me. Sis…"When Olivia came in, Jade gripped Olivia's hands. "Oh, Nat! It's me, Jade.""Jade, who am I?""You're Sis. You know, Nat.""What is my name?" Olivia continued asking."You're…"Before Jade finished speaking, she fell asleep. Olivia felt a little exasperated. Sometimes, it could be quite tro

    Olivia didn't complain. She stepped on Yale for momentum to climb up.The pipeline inside was wide enough to fit an adult man. But no one cleaned it, so it was filled with dust.

    Wayne pushed himself against the warship, his face filled with a pained expression.The look on Olivia's face was extremely cold, and she didn't fake anything at all.Ethan fired more shots. The bullets rained down near Wayne's speedboat, causing waves to splash in Wayne's face."Wayne, I'll make you pay dearly for kidnapping my wife!"With that, Ethan ordered his men to steer homeward.Looking at the hurt man, Ike sighed silently. "She's already gone, Mr. Maxwell. Just give up. She doesn't love you."The heart was the most important factor. Age and status didn't matter at all. If she didn't like him, then she didn't. No matter who he was, he couldn't do anything about it."Why…" Wayne mumbled. After so many years, he finally met a woman like her, but the heavens refused to grant his wish.Olivia leaned in Ethan's embrace. "I thought that I would never see you again."Back then, she seriously thought that Wayne would keep her trapped on the island forever."I'm sorry, Liv

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!

    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.

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 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.
