Olivia looked in that direction to see a tall young man limping over. He resembled Mona.

Despite the same features they shared, Mona was a bright woman, while he seemed cold and glum.

Noticing her gaze, he nodded at her. "I'm sorry about my mother's ruckus, Ms. Fordham. She didn't know the score."

Brent had told him everything, so he knew the whole story.

He kept Megan in the dark because he didn't want to upset her. He didn't expect her to come all the way here.

He seemed tired as the corner of his eyes were red. His legs had yet to recover, hence the limp.

Before Olivia pulled herself back from her musing, the young man abruptly bowed before her.

He hung his head low, repenting like a sinner. "I know the whole story. It's all my fault. I held Mona back and hurt you indirectly. This wouldn't have happened if I dodged it."

Olivia said and motioned Brent to help him up.

"Your leg is in bad shape. Don't hurt yourself. The opponent had everything planned. Even if it wasn't you,

Now I have mixed feelings. Who have the 2 babies? He or the enemies? They were alive!! I think it was a planned scheme by the Dr and someone to clean them up and get them. Was it for their protection or to kidnap them?

    Ethan washed up and got changed before rushing to the hospital.He asked before entering the room. "How is she doing?"Kelvin quickly responded, "It's weird. Mrs. Miller didn't throw a tantrum and even asked to have an extra meal.""Did she say anything?""She asked about the other men's condition and how many enemies we captured. She also asked if Warren was one of them. She seemed calm the whole time.""What did you answer?""I told her the truth, that Warren escaped. The other people were under strict interrogations. She didn't say anything after that. She said that she was tired and needed some rest."Kelvin scratched his head before continuing, "Mr. Miller, what's up with Mrs. Miller? The way she's acting right now kinda scares me. She's too calm about it, so calm that it sends chills down my spine.""It looks like she didn't lie to me." Initially, Ethan was worried that Olivia was trying to distract him to commit suicide. Fortunately, she had figured it out.He entered

    "Liv, I'm not trying to side with whoever. But this is not the Toxic Hive's way of doing things. "If Leia really wants you dead, it's highly possible that she will find a way to drug you. Would she have chosen this method?"As you know, the head of Toxic Hive is Helen. After Mr. Carlton passed away, she brought the Toxic Hive out of Aldenvine, including Leia. It has been months since they left." Ethan held Olivia's hand.With a gentle expression, he said, "The person who bought off The Black Ravens is not only rich, but he knows the way to contact them. "He's decisive and simple with his way of doing things. He's ruthless. Liv, did you think about who you have offended?"She shook her head. "You know my past very well. I got married and was pregnant before I graduated from university. Who could I possibly offend?"Not to mention that it's a powerful fellow that can spend 100 million dollars so easily to put a bounty on my head."He frowned. "I suspect that it has something to

    Olivia's eyes were neither calm nor clear; they were teeming with madness and obsession.What kind of place Volt Peak Mountain was? It was called the Isle of Death in the line of industry. It was a secret base to train special agents, as well as a very dangerous place.What kind of people were there?They were either orphans or people who lost their families—in short, they were alone.The majority of them were sent there for training when they were young. Of course, there were grown-ups like Olivia, too. They shared a similar background, too.It was no wonder that Ethan reacted that way. Her rash decision would result in her death."Shake that idea off your mind, Liv. You have always wanted to set up a hospital for the citizens. Even if Marina changed its name, this hospital is still operating. "The medical staff we have here are skillful doctors from within the country and abroad. I've also established a foundation to help out poor people. "Over 100 people are benefiting f

    Drizzle began falling from the somber sky.The candle flame danced along to the cold breeze.Olivia wiped the raindrop off her face, muttering, "Mona, is that you?"Two drops of rain landed beneath Mona's eyes on the picture, making it seem as though she was crying.It broke Olivia's heart to see that.She caressed the gravestone. "Don't worry, Mona. I will take good care of your family. They are my family from now onward. "Please rest in peace. In your next life … Find a better person in your next life."The drizzle showered the whole village after the funeral.Instead of leaving immediately, she went to Mona's old residence.It had been a while since Mona's family moved to a big city. They would only return to their hometown during festive days like New Year's, so the house was usually empty. The house seemed to be shabby. The apple tree and grapevine trellis stood in the rain, seeped with loneliness.Olivia stood below the grapevine trellis. She could imagine an adorab

    Baffled, Olivia looked at Penny. Wrinkles adorned Penny's face, and her eyes were murky.Her wrinkle-surrounded mouth was shaking due to vehement emotions."Mrs. Durst, are you speaking to me?""Yes, you!" The excited older woman held Olivia's hand, rubbing her rough hands against the back of Olivia's hand so much that it stung.Penny's reaction took Olivia aback. They didn't know each other, but why was Penny getting so excited?"Mrs. Durst, did you get the wrong person?""How could I possibly get the wrong person? Miss, I've never expected myself to be able to meet you again. You look exactly the same as you were that year! You barely changed."Penny sized her up. "No, you seemed skinnier. Something's different about your face, too."Megan quickly said, "I think you got the wrong person. Olivia has never come to this village before. This is her first visit.""Olivia?" Penny circled Olivia while pointing at her at times. "Something's off. You're taller and skinnier than her.

    She could barely remember her name, but such etiquette was still etched deep in Penny's bones."Madam, make yourself at home. Let's talk inside."Olivia scanned the area casually. It was her first time coming to this loft.Ethan pointed at a nearby guest room. "I asked Madam Burgess to clean that room. Mrs. Durst can stay there for the moment. If she lives under the same roof with you, she might be able to remember sooner.""Okay.""Let her get used to the place for a few days. I'll ask someone to give her a thorough medical checkup after that.""Thanks." Olivia had been giving him an aloof attitude as though they were neighbors.Ethan sighed helplessly, knowing that this would last for a while."You should get some rest, Liv. You're not fully recovered yet. From today onward, I'll ask someone to come over to treat your hand. "As for your father, there's a medical team checking on him 24/7. Don't worry, nothing will happen."Olivia couldn't pick any fault out of his arrangem

    Ethan's brows furrowed tightly. "Which city?""Mrs. Durst can't remember. She said that she wandered along the streets all the way from her hometown. She didn't have a place to go in mind. "She followed others wandering around. I heard that her city was close to the sea.""The country was tangled with wars over 60 years ago. Every military troop attacked everywhere to claim territories. There were countless bandits, too. "The people formed organizations themselves to make riots. That period was chaotic. The place names kept changing. This alone won't be able to get us to the right place.""It's alright. Take your time. I am happy enough to be able to meet Mrs. Durst. It can be considered as a guide from God. Who knows? She might be able to recall more things one day.""Liv, it is true that we have leads. But you have to be mentally prepared. Even if you resemble Ms. Nat—the person Mrs. Durst served—it is possible that this is a mere coincidence. "It's common for people to loo

    Ethan reclined on the leather couch, slightly raising his head.He looked exhausted. Judging from his shut eyes, he seemed to be asleep.Olivia spared him a glance, and she didn't wake him up. She sat opposite him silently instead, casually taking a programming book.It was only when a cold wind came through the window that Ethan slowly woke up.Gazing at the cold scenery, he reckoned that it was going to snow soon.The light in the room was brightly lit, contradicting the somber sky outside.There were fresh flowers, which were brought over this morning, placed on the table. They were trimmed into lovely and graceful arrangements, giving off a faint, fresh scent.The apartment finally felt like home.However, no matter how wholesome the interior design was, it couldn't mend the relationship between Ethan and Olivia.Previously, only the weather outside would be described as cold; now, their relationship itself had turned cold, too.Back in the past, she would definitely

    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.

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.

    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
