Ethan gave Kelvin some instructions. Then, he went upstairs with the cooled soup in his hands.Sounds of washing up could be heard from the bathroom. Soon, Olivia emerged with droplets of water clinging to her.As soon as she opened the door, she saw Ethan. Their gazes met.She hadn't dried her hair, so it hung in wet clumps. Her fair face was cold and stern. Her slender collar bones were exposed above the casual clothes she was wearing.Ethan discreetly looked away. He gulped a little.When he saw Olivia like that, he was reminded of that enchanting dream. Even the touch of her skin felt too real.It was so real that he could still remember Olivia's warmth and her heart-racing sounds."The soup is ready. Try it and see if there are any changes."Olivia had been bustling about all morning, so she didn't get to have any soup. Her stomach was already hurting long ago.When Chris took her away from the island, she left in a hurry. She didn't even bring her medicine.She had en

Olivia's expression suddenly turned stern at the mention of Toxic Hive. "Mr. Carlton, I'll be honest with you. The ones who kidnapped me last time are related to the Toxic Hive. They're not decent people.""I know. I used to hate them to the core. They don't value human lives, but they can bring back the dead. For Chloe's sake, I have no other choice."Olivia didn't know if they were targeting Chloe because of her. But they always had something up their sleeves, so they might have prepared a trap for Chris."If you go to them, you'll be dealing with the devil.""Olivia, are you just going to sit by and watch as Chloe dies?"If it were last week, she wouldn't have cared if Chloe died. But last night, Chloe had embraced her. Olivia couldn't just watch Chloe die without understanding why.When Olivia came here, Kelvin told her about the investigation results. No one had entered the ward except for Marina.Olivia wondered if Marina would do something so inhumane to her stepmother. S

Marina ended her call with Ethan. She was panicking before this, but now, she felt like she was on cloud nine.She was elated that Ethan finally agreed to marry her. This was amazing news to her.Tossing aside the misery in her heart, she changed her clothes and put on makeup. Then, she went out.When she was going out, she received a call. She pleaded in a pitiful tone, "I've already done as you said. That woman won't be alive for long. Can't I leave tomorrow? I have an important appointment later.""That won't do. Don't forget, your bone marrow matches hers. If they find out about it, she can still be saved. "I'll send someone over to pick you up. You should hide for three days. She will be dead in three days at most!"Marina felt a little annoyed. "Fine, then. I'll leave right after this meal."With that, she hung up. She thought that delaying it a little should be fine.Getting into the car, she watched as the scenery quickly passed by. Marina recalled Chloe's face again.

Marina was quickly transported into a truck. There was professional medical equipment in the truck, and doctors as well. It was like an ambulance.As soon as she got into the truck, someone began treating her. An oxygen mask was placed on her nose, and she took in large gulps of air.She wasn't quite conscious, and her eyes couldn't focus. She could only see a few people tending to her wounds.She had lost a lot of blood, so she knew that she would die for sure.Many memories surfaced in Marina's mind. Her last memories were of Chloe looking weak and powerless, and that day when she pushed Olivia off the ship.She felt like she saw the snow dancing in the air again, and the cold sea breeze blew the snowflakes right at her.The sea was very cold that night. Olivia lost her child because of that.This was probably Marina's punishment for hurting others.But Marina didn't understand why she would do this.The truck stopped moving at an unknown location. Then, the people moved M

Olivia had arrived at the café early on. After learning about Avery's identity, she felt a little nervous. The Fordhams were only a middle-class family in Aldenvine before they went bankrupt.But Avery owned a huge corporation that was internationally famous. He usually met either high-ranking government officials or influential leaders in the industry.When Avery opened the door and walked in, Olivia stood up. She looked nervous as she said, "Hello, Mr. Fordham."In their past two meetings, Avery had been in a rush. Avery wasn't sure if it was because of her looks, but he felt a sense of familiarity around her."You don't have to be so formal, Ms. Fordham. Have a seat."The two sat down opposite each other. Olivia clasped her hands together as she spoke in a trembling voice. "Pardon me, Mr. Fordham, but I have something to ask of you.""Please don't say that, Ms. Fordham. You saved my life. It doesn't matter what sort of help you want me to provide. You can just tell me."Avery

Avery returned to the private room with a faint smile on his lips. "Sorry for the wait. I've already sent someone to deal with your problems. Don't worry."The man looked a little pale. When he smiled, there was a tiny dimple on his left cheek. He looked much friendlier now."Thank you so much. Mr. Fordham, you don't look too well. Why don't you get treated at the hospital? It'd be dangerous if you fainted again like you did last time.""It's an old issue. It's nothing too serious."The waiter came over with their food. Olivia smiled at Avery. "I ordered some food. I don't know if you'd like what I ordered, though."Avery had maintained this amicable air about him. So, Olivia didn't feel as nervous as she did at the beginning.As they dined, Olivia was surprised to find that her tastes were like Avery's. They dropped slightly more of the formalities from before.Avery gazed at her with a gentle look in his eyes. "I think of my sister when I see you. She's about the same age as y

Olivia could imagine how much the Fordhams loved Quinn. She was also amazed at how rich they were.She couldn't imagine just grabbing a billion dollars and running away."So she never contacted you?""No. She blocked us before she left. We couldn't contact her at all.""What about the money? She'll have to spend some money at least, right? Can't you figure out where she is based on the sources of her expenditure?"Avery shook his head. "I wish we could. Two months ago, she caused quite a lot of damage to the house. When she left, the whole family was cleaning up after her."We feared that she would do something even worse if we cornered her. So, we decided to let her leave for now."We hoped that she would choose to come home after realizing how dark things could be outside."But we didn't expect her to hide her traces. She also began laundering the money quickly. She transferred the billion dollars out of her account."When we realized that something was wrong, she had alread

Seeing that there was no one around them, Avery revealed the truth."In reality, the medical organization that was first established was called Peace's Embrace. The name signified their wish for everything in the world to be embraced by peace."At first, this organization was established for research that would benefit humanity. It invited top scholars and specialists from various countries."This was so that they could focus on illnesses that humanity couldn't cure. Examples would be cancer, AIDS, leukemia, rabies, and other diseases caused by viruses."But gradually, there was a disagreement within the organization."Olivia asked, "What disagreement?""Some experiments were inhumane. Experiments usually need clinical trials. It wasn't something you could achieve with the loss of one or two human lives."They hired anyone willing at a high price. Those volunteers would sign the death waiver of their own accord. But not everyone was willing to do that."Since they lacked subjec

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.

Brandon and Deborah, together with Jacqueline, had hurt and killed countless people. Quinn became a sacrifice, never waking up again despite her young age.

"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. 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.

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
