Even After Death Chapter 398
Olivia left the room, her head filled with questions. Right then, Avery covered her mouth and dragged her to the side.He smelled of scented candles, so she wasn't that surprised when he suddenly dragged her away.She was curious about what he was going to do.He gave her a look, hinting at her to look downward.They were standing by the balcony on the second floor. There were two people standing on the lawn downstairs. Although one of them was facing his back to Olivia, she recognized him easily.It was none other than Ethan.He was grabbing the wrist of a skinny woman in a white dress.It was Leia, whom Olivia and Avery met not long ago.Ethan's objective was to root Toxic Hive out. Thus, there was a chance that he had long known that that woman was Leia.The realization made Olivia break into a cold sweat.She shook her head immediately. Ethan loved her. He would never lie about that.Thus, she believed that this was a coincidence. It was possible that he had found out

Olivia turned and left. She didn't listen to the conversation any further.She would be insulting herself if she stayed and listened to them.She had loved Ethan for many years, and it had turned into a mere joke.Even though Leia had ruined Olivia and her family, Ethan still called Leia's name so gently.Olivia recalled that night they had almost injected poison into her body. She could have died back then!Now, even the sound of Ethan breathing was repulsive to her.He kept saying how much he loved her and promised to give her an answer to everything.In fact, he had been eliminating evidence to prevent her from finding out the truth.She wondered if this was his way of loving her.Olivia left the balcony with a piece of rock. The idea of smashing Ethan's head with it crossed her mind for a brief moment.She took a deep breath and didn't look back."Your younger sister was long gone. I'm just a living zombie." Leia's voice was hoarse. She no longer pretended to be someone

Chris was still in the castle. Ethan didn't want to cause him trouble at such a critical moment. So he didn't provoke Leia.Now that he had met her, the mixed feelings that were churning in his stomach eventually morphed into disappointment.He couldn't understand how the adorable girl from his childhood had turned into this kind of person."Did you get plastic surgery?" Ethan questioned.Compared to Leia, Jodie the Millers more. He had too many questions he needed answers for."Yes," she coolly admitted. As long as he was the one asking, she wouldn't hide the answers from him."Why?" She avoided his gaze. "I have nothing to tell you. You shouldn't be here for too long. Leave. Pretend that you never met me."He blocked her way. "It's fine if you don't want to come home and don't want me as your brother. But you should at least tell me why you hurt Liv. "Why did you hurt innocent people? When you were young, you couldn't even eat for days after your kitten died. How could

Leia looked right into Ethan's eyes. "Yes, I had enough of that kind of life, so I ran away. I wanted to see the outside world, but I was too naive. I thought that everyone was kind except for Mom …"She stopped her story right there.He asked, "Even if Mom hurt you, why did you bear grudges against Liv? Why did you do that to her?"Her eyes turned cold at the mention of that name. "Liv, Liv."Emotions were storming in her as she grabbed him by the collar. "Do you think that I've never tried to seek help from you? But did you care about me at that time? All you cared about was her!"I saw you smiling at her and doting on her just like how you did to me in the past. She smiled so sweetly …"The tears Leia tried to fight back finally trickled down her cheeks. She screamed, "Do you know what kind of life I've been through? Do you know what I went through just to see you again?"Her tears fell onto the back of his hand, and they were warm."When I escaped from darkness, I fought

It was an appalling spectacle. Ethan rolled Leia's sleeve up only to see scars fully mark her arm.Unable to believe what he was seeing, he rolled up her other sleeve as well.To his surprise, there were not only one or two scars from cuts. There were burn marks too. The scars look like a squirming worm. It pained him to see them covering her arms. "What happened?"Leia quickly withdrew her arms from him. Frantically, she said, "It's none of your business. As I said, I'll leave if you don't kill me. After that, my life and death don't concern you anymore."As soon as she finished, she turned and ran away without looking back.Ethan couldn't stop her.Shock overwhelmed him as he wondered what kind of life she had been through all this while.…With a gloomy expression, Olivia didn't utter a word in the room. She kept staring at her fingers in a daze. She didn't know what she was looking at either.Avery said softly, "Have you finished your business? We shouldn't stay here for

Avery let out a bitter smile. "Logically speaking, it is easy to find a donor from the large world population. But it's hard to look for a donor through the normal procedures."Olivia understood what she meant immediately. Peace's Embrace and Toxic Hive split ways because of the difference in management ideology.Only a minority of people were willing to donate their organs. That was why a lot of lowly people got involved in human trafficking in the black market.A righteous person like Avery would never want to receive an organ through illegal means."Mr. Avery, would you like to have a crossmatch test with me before you leave?""Olivia, what do you mean?"She smiled. "As you said, I do think that we're somehow destined to meet each other. My kidney might be compatible with yours. If it's a match, can I strike a deal with you?"Avery frowned. "Olivia, what are you trying to do? You can just tell me. I'll help you out if it's something within my jurisdiction.""We can talk abou

Ethan clearly wasn't buying it. If Olivia wanted to come to the hospital, why would she cause a commotion by leaving the house in the middle of the night?However, he couldn't treat her the way he always did. Leia's matter was fettering him with guilt.He walked next to her, looking at her gently. "Why did you come here in the middle of the night and shake the bodyguards off? What if you encountered danger? Didn't I say that it's still dangerous out there? You should have the bodyguards follow you around wherever you go."Olivia wouldn't mention Avery's matter no matter what.Ethan didn't dare to question further because he didn't want to upset her. She answered, "I couldn't sleep, so I came here."He caressed his thumb while testing the waters. "I heard that you took Avery's car. Are you close with him?""No. It's because we share the same surname and I saved him once. He needed to come to the hospital, so he picked me up while he was on the way." She glossed over her relation

Ethan clearly sensed Olivia's aloof attitude. Had it been before, he would've forcefully taken her home.However, he couldn't bring himself to give her the cold shoulder now after what had happened—let alone say hurtful words.Guilt was devouring him."Liv, I know that many things have happened, and you're upset about them. Don't worry, I'll save your father as soon as possible. He'll be fine."Olivia, who was facing her back at him, coldly responded, "What's the use of that? If we can't find the mastermind, Dad might be harmed once more even after we save him. You promised to give me an answer to everything. When are you going to do that?"He would've been able to answer that question with confidence in the past, but not now.How could he tell Olivia that the culprit was his very own sister?That was his biological sister, whom he had wrapped up in cotton wool since childhood. Ethan had searched for Leia for a long time. It was a tough journey before they reunited.He would give Ol

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
Even After Death Chapter 1666
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
