Wendy nodded. "That is the principle. But considering how life-threatening this curse is, I bet the crafter is one dangerous witch. Olivia's life is in their hands. It's going to be hard to find out what their weakness is.""What should we do?""An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Since that witch has cursed Olivia, we'll curse Jacqueline. We can at least have a plan B when that witch decides to go back on their word."Ethan's eyes lit up in hope. "I don't know anything about curses. Please help us, Madam Wendy."He then bowed to her. "Please save my wife, Madam Wendy. I'll grant any wish you ask for."Wendy sighed at his genuine request. "I just don't understand why things have to turn out this way for both of you. Get up. I know Olivia loves you too. Olivia and I have lived together for some time. And I've grown fond of her. There's no way I'll turn a blind eye to this."She patted his shoulder. Her expression remained solemn. "Only powerful witches can cast this kind of

Brent concocted something simple for Jacqueline. She took a spoonful of it and suddenly swept the bowl off the table. "What the hell is this? Is this even edible?"Leia slapped her. "You should be grateful that you have something to eat. You're not in the position to be picky."Jacqueline growled, "Leia Miller, I'm warning you, Olivia's life is in my hands now. If you don't treat me well, I'll kill her!"That was her only yet useful bargaining chip.Brent, who didn't know much about curses, reined in his anger. "Ms. Fordham, as you can see, this village is isolated. The villagers have never interacted with the outside world. This is what they eat every day. The rice you looked down on is the corps they cultivated with their blood, sweat, and tears. "There are no snacks or gourmet food here. Even if you ask for something better, the best cook here won't be able to make it."Jacqueline had observed how backward the village was and knew that he had a point.She suppressed her fury

Most of the women in the world were afraid of mollusks. If one fell from the tree and landed on their hand by chance, they would scream at the top of their lungs.Still, the young Willow had just thrown a cursed worm into Jacqueline. Jacqueline clearly felt something squishy in her mouth. It was wriggling too!She yelled in disgust."Shut up." Leia shoved a piece of cloth into Jacqueline's mouth. Jacqueline was so caught off-guard that she swallowed the worm. She wasn't sure if she was overthinking it, but she could feel it sliding through her esophagus. It was so disgusting that it gave her goosebumps. Willow made sure Jacqueline had swallowed the cursed worm before removing the cloth.Like a madwoman, Jacqueline got on her knees and tried to vomit to remove the worm from her. However, no matter what she did, the only thing that came out of her was bile because she hadn't eaten anything for more than 20 hours.She glared at Willow. "What did you feed me?"Willow gestured i

Leia's face remained expressionless as she stripped Jacqueline down."You must be desperate to kill me, huh? I played you guys like fools you are. But you can't kill me. To top it off, you have to serve me too."Suddenly, Leia dunked Jacqueline's head into the water. Jacqueline held the rim of the bathtub, wriggling to break free from the coercion. But Leia wasn't going to give her the chance to do so.As the typical cruel woman, Leia waited for a while before yanking Jacqueline's hair upward. After Jacqueline barely caught a few breaths, Leia dipped her head into the water again. The torture repeated a few times.In the end, Leia grabbed Jacqueline's hair tightly. "I can't kill you, but I'm strong and have many ways to torture you. You can try me."Jacqueline's upper body was drenched. She thought her hair was going to fall off her head.The torture went on for a while, but Jacqueline let out an ambiguous smile. On the other hand, Olivia, who had been unconscious, suddenly

The memories before she lost consciousness flooded Olivia. She could only remember the sudden pain in her neck before she fell into a swoon.When she finally regained her composure, she realized that the room seemed familiar."This is…"She didn't feel well as she had just woken up, especially her head. It felt heavy, clouded by a weight of grogginess."We're at Alora Village. You've been cursed, so I was wondering if Madam Wendy could help us out." Ethan hugged her gently. She nestled her head in his arms. "Is it a powerful curse, Ethan? Can she lift it?"Near-death experiences were not new to her, hence her relatively calm voice."It's a troublesome one, Liv. Your life and Jacqueline's are bound together. It's either you live or die together. Madam Wendy is at her wit's end. Only the witch that cast the curse knows what can be done.""I see. Did something happen to Jacqueline? I felt like I was suffocating.""I think so." He then cooed, "Don't worry, Liv. Jacqueline is just

Olivia looked at Wendy. "What happened?""Jacqueline asked someone to cast a Lifebond Curse on you. The curse settled in you within 24 hours, and now, your life is bound with hers. From now onward, you'll share the pain. But I didn't know that you'd feel the pain so vividly. The witch is powerful," Wendy recounted.At this moment, Wendy thought it was so fortunate that she didn't get ahead of herself by breaking the curse for Olivia. This wasn't any ordinary curse; it was a refined one. Just like how science would improve every day, the abandoned minority curses had been cast to oblivion. Only a few people still sustained the practice—the powerful witches.Jacqueline rested against the rim of the bathtub with an expression of a winner. "I'm glad you know. It's not only our lives; she can feel anything that I do. If you want her to suffer with me, you're welcome to torture me."Olivia did feel unwell when she woke up. She brushed it off as soreness from the long hours of sleep. It

Olivia looked at Jacqueline. "Grab something to eat first."Now, it wasn't only Olivia's and Jacqueline's lives that were bound together; the same went for their body condition.Despite their deep-rooted resentment, everyone had to treat Jacqueline well for Olivia's sake.Nevertheless, Olivia's eyes carried tranquility. She acted so differently from others, who were grappling with hatred. She even told Ethan to ask someone to tend to Jacqueline."Okay." He didn't have any opinion about it. With one look from Ethan, Brent began treating Jacqueline's wound. After finishing her meal, Olivia even instructed him to treat the wound and tie the bandage more neatly.Fury was boiling within Kelvin. "Mrs. Miller, why are you being so nice to her? She has caused you so much harm! If it were me, I'd want to tie that bandage as tightly as possible."Olivia studied Kelvin for a while before smiling. "It's been so many years, and you haven't changed one bit. Still jumpy as before.""Yeah,

Leia had tortured Jacqueline so cruelly and almost drowned her just a while ago. Jacqueline and Leia were the same kind of people—cruelty ran in their blood. This was a chance for Jacqueline to avenge herself.As Olivia's enemy, Leia knew that this wasn't a difficult condition for Olivia. Leia meant nothing to Olivia. The glint in Leia's eyes turned cold when she heard that condition. But she could only rein her anger in for Olivia's sake. After all, she owed it to Olivia.Clenching her fists, Leia tried to keep her cool.Ethan frowned upon hearing that. But Ethan shared the same notion as Leia—they owed Olivia. That was why he stayed silent, agreeing to the condition alongside Leia. "No," Olivia rejected, and everyone looked at her.No one saw it coming. "Why? Think about what she did to you. Are you feeling sorry for her?""This is a different matter. Settle your scores with Leia yourself. This is between you and me. I don't have the right to drag someone else into this."J

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.

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

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
