Even After Death Chapter 1533
Putting their status as scions of the Fordham family aside, the two brothers were still leaders in their fields.Looking at each other, one was crippled and stuck in the past while the other had been haunted by his kidney disease for years. Both of them were tormented by their circumstances.Avery hugged Sean. "It's all my fault. None of you would've been dragged into this mess if I had realized something was wrong sooner."Everyone thought it was just an accident when Quinn went missing. None of them thought one of their own was responsible."Avery, who do you think it could be? Troy, Vox, or Jacqueline?""They're our closest family, our kin. I don't think they would be the ones. I've focused my attention on looking into our cousins, nephews, and other relatives. "They have a more plausible motive. If something happens to us, they'll have a chance to inherit our family's fortune!""Then, did you find anything?""I have some leads, but I can't risk alerting the enemy yet. Do

Olivia felt a little embarrassed. "It isn't official yet.""It's fine. You'll be my sister sooner or later. I'm so happy to have another sister."Sean patted her on the head. Olivia was excited that she suddenly had two brothers. "Am I really good enough?"She knew how prestigious the Fordham family was in Zelotria. It felt surreal that she had become part of their family. The Fordham brothers smiled at her warmly. "We're overjoyed to have a sister like you. The only thing is you'll have to hold out until this matter is behind us. Then, we'll officially accept you into the family."The three of them looked at one another and smiled. There was a very obvious dimple on Sean's left cheek when he smiled. It reminded Olivia of the dimples on her children's faces. Maybe they were really meant to be a family. …Sean was wheeled into the operating room by an assistant robot at night. He was stunned when he was told that these people were actually robots. He knew a little about

OIivia's back was soaked in sweat when she woke up. The dream was quite surreal. She felt the cold sweat on her forehead. She had only seen Quinn in photos and had never met her in person. But the dream she had seemed very realistic.Quinn's smile was so gentle. She didn't look like a dead person in the dream. She was like a kind older sister. Olivia sighed heavily. If Quinn were still alive, she would be 29 years old. It was so unfair. She was such a talented young woman, but she died such a gruesome death.Then, she heard the melody of a flute. Olivia freshened up before she exited the room.Sean was holding a flute while he looked at Willow, who was playing her flute, with a tender expression.It was a very peaceful image, and Sean looked like his condition had improved too.Olivia asked gently, "Avery, how are you holding up?""I lived through it. Louis said I'm the most successful herb-imbued person after you."Olivia was overjoyed. "That means you're saved!""For the

Jacqueline was stunned. She had thought it was ridiculous when Reginald told her about it. Sean had a prestigious background. He should have high standards.The woman before her had a decent figure and nice skin, but her facial features were plain. The most important thing was that she had a child!Was Sean insane? Or did this woman somehow brainwash him?Jacqueline had thought that Olivia had some tricks up her sleeve. Things had already turned out like this before she could intervene."Sean, are… are you joking?" Jacqueline smiled awkwardly. Olivia took Sean's arm and said gently, "Ms. Jacqueline, we're really in love with each other. He doesn't mind that I was married before, and I don't mind that his legs are crippled.""Besides, Willow is a very well-mannered child and has a talent for music. I think she's a great kid." Sean patted Olivia's arm with a smile. He looked at Jacqueline's shocked expression and asked, "Is there something wrong, Jacqueline?""I just feel like

Olivia gave Sean a mysterious smile. "We'll see."To make their act more convincing, Olivia stayed in Sean's room while she was staying in the house. She and Willow took the bed while Sean stayed in the study connected to the room.Jacqueline was stunned to see them staying in the same room. Things were going too quickly. …She returned to her villa angrily. As soon as she entered the villa, a man came up to her and gave her a big hug. "Why are you home so late? Do you only care about Sean? What about me?"She pushed the man away. Then, she lit a cigarette and said, "Get away from me. I'm not in the mood.""You're so heartless. You're so well-behaved when you're with other people, but you're so bad-tempered when you're with me. Is it because you know I love you?"Did that Dr. Fordham anger you again? I told you to take her out, but you insisted on being needlessly compassionate."Jacqueline was also feeling regretful. Avery refused to tell her his location. She had a bad fee

Sean told the rest of the family about Olivia the following morning. He was going to bring her back to the Fordham Residence. He called Olivia over and said, "The Fordham family is massive. We have a hand in multiple industries. The main family used to be quite lively and had been steadily growing. "Things started to go downhill after Avery was diagnosed with kidney disease. Troy is almost never home, and Vox is even more elusive. After Quinn's death and my traffic accident, Jacqueline was the one keeping us afloat.""What about your parents?""The family's business is just too massive. My father is already very busy with managing our assets in other countries. "My mother sustained some injuries when she gave birth to Jacqueline. She's been resting and barely ever goes out these days. I didn't even tell her about my suicide attempts because I worry it might affect her health."Sean sighed. "It's just a family gathering today. There aren't a lot of outsiders. You don't have to

They drove to the lake in the western suburban area. The gorgeous scenery was visible from quite some distance away.The gentle breeze blew on the fields as birds flew overhead in a flock. There were also lotuses on the lake.The sky was clear, and the water was rippling gently. Some petals scattered by the lakeside added a touch of elegance to the view."This place is so pretty.""Yeah. Mom's very sickly, so she can only stay in quiet places to rest. This is a nice place, which helps improve her mood."Before they got out of the car, there was already a group of housekeepers in uniform waiting for them. When the car came to a stop, a middle-aged butler opened the door. He said politely, "You're finally home, Mr. Sean."This palace wasn't actually his home. The Fordham residence was in the middle of the city. It wasn't the best place for his mother to stay. The Fordham siblings weren't that attached to this place, but that wasn't important. Their home was where their parents

Olivia looked at the woman before her. Shana was wearing a plain cotton dress, and her hair was in a ponytail.She didn't have any makeup on, but she looked very young. She didn't seem like a woman her age at all. Instead, she looked like she was in her mid-30s.Her eyes were clouded, like pearls that had been covered in dust. "Madam Fordham worries about you and your siblings every day. She shed many tears for you all, and eventually, her eyes became like this. Fortunately, you were able to overcome your depression, Mr. Sean. That's good news for Madam Fordham.""Sean, let me take a look at you.""Mom, I'm here." Sean tugged at her dress.Shana bent down and caressed his face like she did when he was a child."My dear Sean is all grown up now. It's a pity that I can't see you clearly anymore."She could only see the outline of his face. Everything else looked like a blur to her."Why didn't you tell me sooner?" Sean asked emotionally as he grabbed her hand."Madam Fordham k

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. Her heart ached as she began crying. "It's finally over, Mona. Please rest in peace."She had been waiting for this day to come for too long. When the revenge was finally over, she felt hollow on the inside. …Yarrows reached their peak of beauty during the season, dancing along the wind.

"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! The thought of it gave her goosebumps.To think that he had made so many preparations just to resurrect Natalie…Even Olivia was deceived.

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.

The Fordham family was still in disarray, and no one knew where Shana was.Olivia sighed softly. "You're too young to be sighing like that." Wayne suddenly appeared next

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. Instead of a ruler of a land, he appeared more like a construction worker. Wendell massaged his forehead at that. How had his son grown

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
