Brent sighed. "I don't know what's going through Ms. Miller's head. But I wonder how Mrs. Miller will react after learning the truth."

"Yeah, Mrs. Miller doesn't know anything. She just thinks that Mr. Miller became distant because of Ms. Carlton. She tried so hard to get back with Mr. Miller for two years. She even tried to take her own life in exchange for Ms. Miller's.

"If she learns the truth now, who will she blame for the misfortune that befell the Fordhams? There was the downfall of the Fordham family and her father's traffic accident. She went through a lot as well."

Learning the truth would be like cutting into an old wound. It would reveal the bloody and ugly past.

If he had known the truth would be so devastating, would Ethan have insisted on searching for it?

The Fordham family was just unlucky from the beginning. They suffered Ethan's wrath for no reason. Olivia tried to repair their relationship for two years, but they still went their separate ways.

    Chris' words pulled Olivia back to reality. She remembered the most crucial task at hand. It was the bone marrow test results. She quickly got off the bed. Even though she didn't want to donate her bone marrow to Chloe, she no longer had a choice. So, she got ready to donate her bone marrow. Chris turned on the lights in the room. The sudden brightness caused Olivia to wince and cover her eyes with her hands. She noticed a sealed paper bag in Chris' hand after her eyes adjusted to the brightness. With a serious expression, Chris said, "Olivia, I need to talk to you."Olivia saw his serious expression. It reminded her of a strict, disciplinary teacher. She wasn't able to discern his intent right away. She wondered if her bone marrow was incompatible. "Okay," she said. Olivia sat down, and Chris sat right across from her."Mr. Carlton, you have a weighty tone. Is my bone marrow … not compatible?"Chris sighed deeply, pushed the paper bag before her, and said, "Take a l

    Chris looked at her defeatedly and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it. But she's frail right now. She can't talk for extended periods.""I'll take note of that, thanks."Chris sighed helplessly. "I have to apologize to you. I'm the one who forced you to come back. I also took your bone marrow for testing against your will."Olivia didn't have the heart to reprimand him when she saw his sickly face. "It's fine. Thank you for letting me know the truth. If not for the test, I'd still be in the dark. Mr. Carlton, since I'm not Ms. Parker's biological daughter, you'll be able to save her when you find her child. Don't be too sad.""That's true. Let's go. I'll bring you to meet her. Let's find out what happened."Chris brought Olivia to the hospital. Olivia was still reeling from all the information she uncovered. Too many things happened abruptly. She didn't even have time to think about Leia. Since Chloe wasn't her mother, she wondered about Jeff. Was he her father, or was her father so

    Chloe hadn't picked up on Chris' and Olivia's expressions. She was still immersed in her memories. "I remember that I never cared about your studies or your preferences. After leaving you for so many years, I didn't even call you once. You must have hated me for leaving you when you were so young, right?""I …" Olivia sniffed, wondering if she should tell Chloe the truth. Chris hesitated for a while and sighed. "Chloe, you have to calm down. What I'm about to say is very important."Olivia wiped her tears and then helped Chloe wipe hers. Chloe was taken aback. Olivia had always been cold to her. This was the first time Olivia approached her. "What do you want to tell me?"Chris went straight to the point. "The bad news is that Olivia's bone marrow isn't compatible.""Yeah, I was prepared for that.""The good news is that Olivia isn't your biological daughter. You have another daughter. Her bone marrow may be a match.The news was too sudden and direct. It was like a blow

    Chris held Chloe's hand and comforted her, saying, "Don't cry. I'll find your daughter. I'll leave you two alone. You must have a lot to talk about."Chloe and Olivia were the only ones left in the ward. They looked at each other in silence. They were still trying to come to terms with their current identities. Chloe was the first to break the silence. She held Olivia's hand and said, "It doesn't matter even if we're not related by blood. I still need to make it up to you. This terminal disease must be my punishment.""Ms. Parker, you don't have to say that. You'll definitely find a compatible bone marrow. You must rest well.""How is your dad?""He …"Olivia shook her head and said, "He's still the same."The authorities kept the incident at Jeff's hospital a secret. The public did not know what happened. Even Olivia wasn't aware of the number of casualties. "If your father wakes up, tell him I'm sorry. I've betrayed his love. He's a good man. He shouldn't have been put th

    The sudden appearance of the man messed up her plans. She couldn't leave him alone. Then, the emergency room's doctor verified that the man's life wasn't at risk and that he would regain consciousness soon. It was only then Olivia left the hospital in a hurry.The man regained consciousness and was told he was brought to the hospital by a kind person. He wanted to thank the person right away."Unfortunately, the lady left after she paid for your bills.""How long has it been since she left?""She just left."The man jumped out of bed and chased after Olivia. He ignored the nurse shouting behind him, "You can't leave yet. You still need to be checked."He didn't listen to the nurse and quickened his steps. He saw a slender figure by the road. Olivia got into a cab before he could call out to her. She rode the cab to the cemetery and bought some of her grandmother's favorite flowers when she passed the flower shop. She went to her grandmother's grave first. She set the f

    The room was quite dark. In order to let him sleep peacefully, the blackout curtains were tightly drawn. Olivia gently opened a small gap to allow a faint light into the room.She walked cautiously toward the bedside. If it were in the past, Ethan would probably have woken up due to his usual vigilance. But now, his eyes were tightly closed, and an empty IV bag was next to him.Olivia reached out and felt his forehead. It was burning hot. The fever hadn't subsided yet. Ethan's physical condition had always been excellent. He rarely got sick like this.It seemed like she would have to wait till later to talk to him about Leia. She was about to withdraw her hand, but her wrist was grabbed. Ethan pulled hard, and she fell into his arms. She wanted to push him away with a frown, but she heard him say hoarsely, "Don't leave."Sighing, she remained still. She stayed in his embrace. Ethan was happy, and his arms tightened around her. The scorching heat from his body enveloped Oliv

    Olivia was stunned. Even when they were back on the cruise ship, Ethan hadn't kissed her so deeply. Just as she realized something was wrong, she was already trapped and couldn't break free. Ethan's limbs were wrapped around her like thick vines, giving her no time to catch her breath. Ethan might have held back when he was conscious due to his guilt. Now that he was not in his right mind, he was acting on instinct. Olivia tried to struggle but to no avail. Ethan felt grounded when he could smell her scent. "Wake up, Ethan. Do you have any idea what you're doing?"Ethan held her hands above her head, effortlessly defusing her attacks. There was a lot of sweat on his forehead. He said hoarsely, "Liv, I've never been so sure of what I'm doing. I told you, we'll have kids of our own."Kids …Oliva didn't understand why Ethan was so hung up on the subject. She just wanted to get away. "Let me go, Ethan. Don't make me hate you.""If hate can become the bond that binds us, then

    Ethan slept for a long time. When he woke up at night, he looked beside him as soon as he opened his eyes. But he was alone in the bed. He lifted the blanket to see himself fully dressed. He felt disappointed as he thought what had happened was a dream. Maybe it was because he missed Olivia too much and was too afraid of losing her. Olivia would hate him even more if he really did what he thought he did. He held his head in his hands. He still felt a little lightheaded, but the sleep cleared up his fatigue. The fever was gone, and he felt much better. He took a shower to freshen himself up before leaving the room. He saw Madam Burgess cooking up a storm in the kitchen. Her face lit up when she saw Ethan coming downstairs. "You're finally awake, Mr. Miller. You must be hungry after such a long nap. Don't worry, I'll take care of it. I've made a lot of food that you and Mrs. Miller like."Ethan frowned, asking, "Who?""Mrs. Miller, of course. You were still bedridden with a h

    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.

    "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.

    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
