Olivia decided to stay at Ethan's side for the time being. One of the reasons she did that was because he had the means to protect her.

The other was that Leia hated her. If she left, Leia would stop coming after her. She wanted to use Ethan to lure Leia out.

She didn't tell Ethan that Colin was Leo yet. The current situation was still unclear. She had to keep an ace up her sleeve.

She was sure that Jeff was safe in Colin's hands. She still needed him to operate on Jeff, so she didn't want to anger him.

Olivia had slept through the day, so she didn't feel sleepy at night. She still couldn't get through to Colin's phone.

Olivia pretended not to know his identity and sent him several messages. Other than him, Jack was also nowhere to be found.

She went to get some water at 2:30 am. She saw that the lights were still on in Ethan's study. It seemed that he wasn't sleeping either.

In the past, she would prepare some late-night snacks for him so that he wouldn't have to work on

    Marina was the one who kicked the door open. She approached Olivia with an angry expression. Raising her hand, she was about to slap Olivia. "You bitch, why are you always lurking around?"Chris grabbed Marina's hand. He was utterly disappointed in Marina. He didn't mind if she wasn't brilliant, and he didn't need her to be obedient either. But she shouldn't be rotten. Chloe was on the verge of death before her, and she wasn't nervous in the slightest. She even attacked Chloe. Now, here she was, trying to slap Olivia for no good reason. Chris didn't understand how his daughter had become so hateful. "Stop this nonsense at once, Marina. Didn't I tell you not to come here anymore?" Chris' words stirred Marina's anger even more. "Last time, it was that old bitch. This time, it's the young bitch. Don't forget that I'm your daughter, not her."Chris struck Marina with a resounding slap. She didn't expect to be slapped. She didn't even do anything but talk. "All these years,

    Marina was devastated. She had been thinking about her actions the past few days and realized she had crossed the line. She almost killed Chloe. She specifically went to get a fruit basket to apologize to Chloe. But she didn't expect to hear what Chris said the moment she arrived. She didn't get to apologize and had yet another argument with Chris. Marina felt aggrieved as tears fell onto the back of her hand. Ethan was no longer patient with her like he used to be. Ethan's tolerance for her due to Kurt's sacrifice was running out. He couldn't even stand the sight of her anymore. He promised to marry her, but he delayed getting their marriage registered time and again. Marina knew that some things could never return to how they were. Ethan would never love her again. Even her father had stopped trusting her like he used to. All she saw in his eyes was disappointment. She used to get everything she wanted. She couldn't understand why things turned out like this. Marina had n

    Otto's words shook Marina. He patted her shoulder and said, "There's no need to be afraid. I have killed plenty of people on the battlefield. I wouldn't be resorting to such methods if your father had listened to me and had a baby. He's too crazy about her.""So her leukemia didn't develop by chance?" Marina looked at Otto in shock. The bloodlust in Otto's eyes remained strong. He said with a cold smile, "That's right. I had wanted your father to marry a woman that's a match for our family after your mother passed away. But he married Chloe instead. She could no longer bear a child after her miscarriage. "I asked your father to find another healthy woman and have a baby, but he refused. That's why I had to do this."Marina's fingers held onto the chair's armrests tightly. She was the one who caused Chloe's miscarriage. She had hated Chloe ever since she was a child. She felt like Chloe stole Chris' love from her mother. Marina thought if Chloe gave birth to a baby, even her fat

    Otto came out to the yard. Marina held her breath behind the tree and used the leaves to hide herself. The woman before Otto was alluring, but she exuded an air of authority and danger. She was like a flower that bloomed in the tropical forests, pretty but poisonous. People wouldn't dare to approach her. "It's been a long time, Mr. Carlton Senior." The woman's voice didn't sound natural. It was like she had deliberately changed her voice. Otto was a little wary of her. Even though she was wearing a form-fitting dress that couldn't hide weapons, he still didn't dare to get close to her. "You've created too much trouble for me this time!" Otto slammed his cane on the ground with a stern expression. "It's our fault this time. One of my subordinates accidentally leaked our location. So I'm very grateful that you covered for us. That's why I came personally to deliver the drugs to you."Otto's expression lightened up at the mention of the drugs.She opened her palm, and Otto eag

    Olivia immediately sent Chris to the emergency room. "How is he, doctor?""Don't worry. It looks like he just fainted from exhaustion. I'll be able to confirm that after some check-ups." Olivia was relieved, but she stayed by Chris' side and poured him a glass of warm water after he woke up."Mr. Carlton, didn't I tell you that your body is in bad shape and that you need to rest?"Shaking his head, Chris said, "I'm fine. I've always been healthy.""No matter how healthy you are, your body won't be able to take constant all-nighters. If you keep this up, you might be gone before Ms. Parker. I'll call Marina over to take care of you."Chris grabbed her hand and stopped her. He said with a conflicted expression, "Don't call her, please. I'd die faster if she was here. "It's embarrassing to bring it up, but Chloe had given her all the love she could ever need all these years. It was because her mother died early, and Chloe was separated from you. "Marina became spoiled because C

    Olivia stayed by Chloe's side at the hospital. They were in a private ward with one bed. It was getting late. Chloe noticed that Olivia was nodding off, so she asked her to get on the bed. It was a bizarre feeling. Olivia had wanted to sleep in the same bed with her mother for so many years, but she never got the chance. She got what she wanted after they were revealed to be unrelated. Chloe held Olivia's hand and said gently, "Liv, I don't care who my biological daughter is. I still owe you a lot. I've been thinking about the past a lot while I'm bedridden here. "I was horrible to you and Jeff. This illness must be karma. I'm ready to die. I have no regrets in this life. Chris has shown me a lot of love."The light from the corridor shone on Chloe's face. Olivia could see a happy smile on her face. "Liv, I'll treat you as my daughter even if you hate me and don't see me as your mother. I wasn't part of your life in the past. Even when you got divorced and were down in the d

    Chloe was surprised to see Marina, but her surprise quickly turned into happiness. She had always felt an inexplicable feeling of closeness with her. "It's so nice to see you, Marina. Have a seat."Marina thought Chloe would hate her after what she did last time. But she didn't see a speck of anger or blame on Chloe's face. All she saw was joy. She put down the fruit basket in her hand and said, "I … I'm here to see you. I didn't mean to do that last time. I was in a bad mood because I lost a game. That's why …""It's fine. I was never mad at you. But you shouldn't hold a grudge against your father. He only slapped you because he lost control. I've already given him a talking to."Chloe could see the guilt in Marina's eyes. That was an emotion she had never seen in Marina before. Marina didn't speak. She only stared at Chloe's face, which had slimmed down a lot. Chloe was undoubtedly a beautiful woman. Marina could still remember the first time they met. Back then, Chloe was

    Olivia was back on the street near the Fordham residence. The street had been around for a long time. Some of the shops on the street had become renowned brands. There were a lot of people there, and it was lively. She went to the matzo ball soup restaurant. The last time she came here was before she got married. There weren't a lot of customers in the restaurant yet. The owner saw her and greeted her heartily, "Ms. Fordham, I haven't seen you in a long time.""Yeah, and your business is booming as usual.""It's all thanks to you. Do you want the usual?""Yes, I'd like two sets of the usual.""Alright, please wait for a moment."Olivia placed her order and went to the store next door to buy some pastries. Chloe hadn't eaten these in more than a decade. Olivia wondered if she missed having them. Olivia headed back to the matzo ball soup restaurant with several bags. In her haste, she accidentally ran into someone. "I'm so sorry," she apologized.Raising her head, she saw a

    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!

    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.

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.

    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.
