Ethan placed a flower and remained quiet next to Janice.The Procters noticed her and were, in fact, more surprised than Olivia to see her here.Enna, Janice's mother, had mixed feelings seeing her daughter here.Enna walked over, her body shaking. "What are you doing here, you ungrateful one?"Janice raised her head and took in Enna's haggard face. Her chest tightened.She didn't spend her time right all these years. Now, she finally realized how foolish she was for not being a filial daughter."Mom," she called."Don't call me that. As I said that year, I'll pretend that I don't have a daughter like you.""Enough, Mom. Now that she's here, I bet she knows that she was at fault. It's been years. Are you still angry at her?" Derrick Procter tried to calm Enna down.Ryder Procter attempted to shift the topic. "This must be Ethan. I never had the chance to meet you since you're mostly working in Arlandia. I'm your uncle."Derrick and Ryder were Janice's brothers.The funeral b

A moment ago, Olivia felt that Derrick and Ryder looked familiar for some reason.When Wendell finally showed up, she knew why.Wayne resembled Wendell a lot. He looked somehow similar to Derrick and Ryder too."What's the matter?""How many children does Mr. Wendell have?""One. That's Alexander, who's engaged with Jacqueline. You saw him yesterday.""I see…"Many people looked similar, just like Olivia and Jacqueline, even though they weren't blood-related.Olivia overthought it because Wayne was consigned to a slum in Carathia when he was young. He didn't know who his parents were."I just think that Mr. Alexander doesn't look like Mr. Wendell. He takes after his mother more.""Maybe. I can't remember her face because she has passed on for many years. Mr. Wendell is a devoted man. He didn't marry anyone else all these years."Olivia nodded and kept quiet, observing the scene.She understood Ethan more than anyone else. He should be very happy to be able to meet the Proct

Ethan was taller than Alexander, who had a more feminine build. The contrast between the two of them was quite strong when they stood next to each other. Ethan was manly and domineering, while Alexander had a softer and more elegant appearance. They were two extremes.Ethan glanced at Alexander calmly and nodded as a greeting."Ethan, this is my fiancée, Jacqueline Fordham," Alexander introduced. "Hi." Ethan looked at Jacqueline's face and noticed some similarities with Olivia.A hint of nervousness flashed in Jacqueline's eyes. She replied quickly, "Your reputation precedes you.""Really? You know about me?" Ethan's seemingly casual words carried the judgemental tone of a man in power.Especially since he was much taller than Jacqueline, his gaze coming from above was incredibly intimidating. Jacqueline composed herself and replied, "Mr. Miller, your reputation in the business world has spread far and wide. I've heard of you even though I'm in Zelotria. "I've been hoping

Troy turned around and saw his cousin, Graham Fordham.He hadn't seen him for a few years, and Graham had grown from a young kid to a superstar in the entertainment industry.The two of them had some bad blood between them. Back in the day, Troy spent one whole year making a wood carving of the Mona Lisa. It was a great project that took great effort for him to accomplish.Graham, who was ten years younger than him, destroyed a part of it when the housekeepers weren't watching out of mischief. His actions caused Troy's work to be incomplete. Troy had planned to take that piece for a competition, so he reprimanded Graham harshly. They were family, but everyone had always felt that David doted on his eldest son the most. The others were less loved. David was angry when he found out about that. He caned Graham and locked him in the private chapel for three whole days.That incident sowed the seed of hatred in Graham. Even though Troy later apologized to him, Graham never accepte

Olivia handed Troy a glass of water to try and calm him down."I don't really understand what's going on. Can you tell me about the traitors you mentioned?""That guy who just walked away is Graham Fordham. He's working in the entertainment industry. He's Uncle Henley's youngest son. Garrett, who died a while back, is his brother."Avery had never suspected anyone in the family for the longest time because he thought we were all bound by blood. "He thought it was only natural for all of us to work toward building the family up. Who in their right mind would bring ruin to their own family? I never expected them to harbor such malice toward us."Olivia was confused. "Why would Mr. David treat his children unfairly?""It's just how it is with the older generation. They just dote on the first son. Dad was Grandpa's first child. That was why he loved Dad to the point of spoiling him."His love even extended to Dad's children. Every time our cousins tried to compete for things with u

There was a sending-off ceremony for family members of the deceased at night in Zelotria. Olivia hid in the crowd as she looked at the members of the Fordham family.Other than Douglas' offspring, there were also the offspring of his brothers and other branch families. The Fordhams were a huge family.The ceremony was about to begin. David was supposed to be the one to pay his respects first, but since he had already passed, Henley was the one to do it instead. Everyone else went to take a flower of their own. Troy and Sean were wheelchair-bound. So, Jacqueline suggested that she would get the flowers for them.Before she could reach out to get the flowers, someone grabbed her wrist. Graham said, "This ceremony is for family members only. I'm afraid you don't have the right to participate."As soon as he said that, Troy snapped back, "Enough is enough, Graham! We're mourning Grandpa right now. How dare you do this right before him? Do you really want to cause him more trouble e

"What nonsense are you saying?" Troy's face was flushed with rage. If his hands weren't injured, he would've already slapped Graham.Jacqueline and Alexander looked at each other. The two of them were also thrown for a loop. Olivia turned to look at Ethan. "What's going on? Is he telling the truth?"Ethan said softly, "Olivia, I just got the news too. Look at who this is."Ethan showed her a photo on his phone. It was a photo of a woman with a great figure in her 30s. Olivia immediately knew who the woman was when she saw the mole under the corner of her eye."It's Natalie!"The photo was different from the black and white photos she had seen before. It was a colored photo, and the image was very clear. Although it wasn't as high definition as photos taken by modern devices, it was still better than the old photos."That's right."Olivia asked excitedly, "Have you found her?"Ethan gazed at the Fordhams and said, "Perhaps they'll reveal the answer to your question."Grah

Sean and Troy looked at each other. The confusion was clear in their eyes. They didn't know anything about this. Even Jacqueline thought it was an outlandish tale."Sean, Troy, did you know about this?"Both of them shook their heads. "I've never heard Dad talk about this before."Jacqueline's plan was at its final stage, but something like this had to happen today. She wasn't about to let other people affect her plan."How can a photo prove anything? Both Dad and Grandpa have passed away. Dad died in a plane crash, and his remains are nowhere to be found. Without the possibility of a DNA test, what other proof can you provide?""This is a blood test that Grandpa and Grandma did when they were alive. Both of them had type O blood. According to Mendel's genetic law, two people with type O blood can only give birth to a baby with type O blood. Your father has type B blood. "The chances of a mutation happening are incredibly slim. Do you think your father would be the exception?"

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. She took the human modification project at face value; she didn't think much about it! "Let Natalie go, Louis. She's been gone for years. She could be watching us from up

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. When the event actually came to pass, everyone would be thinking about their own benefit. However, the result of the discussion between David and Mason surprised everyone.Even though David wasn't acknowledged as one of the Fordhams, he wasn't planning to change his surname to Heath.He saw himself as a Fordham because his mother married Douglas.Nevertheless, he didn't mind his family being relatives with the Fordham family.Mason was a little disappointed, but he still respected David's decision because he knew how well Douglas treated David's family.Mason asked the Fordham family to sta

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. "Any news about Mom's whereabouts?" asked Olivia. "Avery found something, but he's still trying to

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. Although Jacqueline was dead, Olivia didn't feel happy, not even one bit. So what if the mastermind was dead? 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
