Olivia quickly clarified, "Mr. Harold, I'm Liv, not Ms. Nat. Please come to your senses."Harold stared at her for a while and tightened his grip on her wrist."Impossible. You are clearly Ms. Nat. You can't fool me. What's this Liv nonsense?"Olivia was rendered speechless. She didn't understand why all of the Millers seemed to have some mental issues.Ethan appeared just as Olivia was at a loss for what to do. He came forward and pulled Harold's hand from Olivia."Grandpa, this is my wife. You made a mistake.""Stop spewing nonsense. How can Ms. Nat be your wife? And brat, who are you calling Grandpa? I don't even have a son, much less a grandson."Ethan looked at Harold with pain in his eyes. Harold loved him a lot when he was young, even though Harold was very strict with him.Harold was someone important to Ethan. He felt bad when he saw that the once successful businessman had become a senile older man who didn't recognize his own family.Harold instinctively tried to grab Olivia
It would be best if they could get information from Harold about Ms. Nat's whereabouts. Then, Ethan wouldn't need to go on a wild goose chase for her.Harold glared at them and said, "Who is this Ms. Nat? Eugenia is the only woman I know. Don't slander me."If Eugenia suspects I have another woman, she'll come crawling out of her grave to beat me up.""Grandpa, I'm not kidding. You were clutching Liv's arm and calling her Ms. Nat."Harold grunted and said, "Why are you still so naive? You believe the ramblings of a delusional old man? What if I told you I've seen an alien?"Ethan didn't have a response to that.Harold's personality was more lively than he used to be. He would often act or talk childishly. Ethan couldn't handle that.After a while, Harold started to ignore Ethan and went to hold Olivia's hand."You should've come here long ago. Aldenvine is such a horrible place, unlike here. We have beautiful mountains and rivers."There's also the beach, and our weather is way better.
Although Harold felt anxious that neither Ethan nor Olivia wanted kids at the moment, there was nothing he could do.He was a quick-witted man and would think of other ways to achieve his goal. He proceeded to change the topic."Alright, it's fine if you don't want a baby yet. Now that I think about it, my birthday is just around the corner, and I haven't celebrated it since your grandmother passed."Since both of you are here this time, we should take the chance to liven things up. Why don't you take care of it, Liv?"Olivia waved her hand in refusal and said, "This won't do. Mrs. Miller Senior should be the one to do it. She's the head of the household."Also, I just got here and don't really know how to start. I won't be very good at it."Harold's birthday celebration had to be a huge event, not just a simple dinner.It would be a very challenging task, from inviting the guests to handling every detail of the banquet.The Millers were a prestigious family. They would become laughing
"Look at you. I looked away for a bit, and you're all lovey-dovey." Harold appeared out of nowhere. Olivia quickly pulled away from Ethan while blushing. She kept a distance due to the embarrassment of being caught red-handed when sharing a moment of intimacy. "Alright, no need to be shy. You two have been married for so long. I'll stop poking fun at you. "Eugenia would be happy to know that you're getting along so well. Ethan, come and play a few rounds of chess with me.""Okay, Grandpa."Olivia and Ethan parted ways as he was led away by Harold. After he was sure they were alone, Harold asked, "What's going on between you and Olivia?""Nothing.""Nothing? Do you think I'm blind? She's not reacting to a lot of things I mentioned. "Also, why don't you have kids yet? She wanted to bear your children three years ago, and now she's unwilling?"Harold's mind was clouded sometimes, but he was still sharp. Ethan knew he couldn't fool Harold, so he came clean. "There were indeed some iss
That was something Ethan had already thought about. It was also his biggest fear. "The drug's effects are stable. I won't give her the chance to regain her memories.""Nothing in this world is guaranteed. The most important thing you need to do now is to settle things with Marina. Make sure she doesn't show up and throw a wrench into your plans. "Since it's already come to this, you need to cut losses before it's too late. You should also try to get her pregnant again."Ethan frowned. "Both of Liv's pregnancies ended up with premature births. Her body isn't in good shape. It would be hard for her to get pregnant." "Get someone to nurse her back to health then. Women are emotional creatures. Have you ever thought of what would happen if she found out what you did to her in the past?"Ethan thought about how she was still wary of him despite suffering from amnesia. It was apparent how she was subconsciously rejecting him. "She would leave without hesitation." "That's right. She woul
Nikki was visibly upset when Olivia said that. She said in a honeyed tone, "Look at her, Ms. Procter. She's so uncivilized. I meant well…"Janice had just been enjoying the show. She didn't expect to be dragged into it. "You mean well?" Janice huffed. She put down her cutleries and wiped her lips elegantly. "I didn't pick up on that at all. You were insulting her parents, too."Nikki looked at Janice in disbelief. She had stayed by Janice's side for so long. She didn't expect Janice to side with Olivia. "Ms. Procter, I just felt bad for you. She isn't even taking good care of you as your daughter-in-law. She wakes up late in the morning. I don't think she even cares about you."Janice glanced at her with narrowed eyes. "If she doesn't care about me, who does?"Nikki blushed and said shyly, "Ms. Procter, you know how I feel toward Ethan …"She heard a sneer. Janice lifted her chin with a finger and said, "Do you know what I hate the most?"Nikki met Janice's gaze. She felt bloodlust
Free labor? Nikki was stunned. She thought she was hearing things. She couldn't believe Janice had actually said that. "Ms. Procter, do you really hate me so much? But you've been so kind to me these two years."Tears were streaming down her face as she said that. She looked like a sad little kitten. Unexpectedly, Janice reacted negatively to her actions. Janice said coldly, "Drop the act. I'm not a man. All that does is make me even angrier." Nikki was dumbfounded. She thought Janice noticed how much she cared for her these two years. She thought Janice was just bad at expressing her emotions. But it seemed like Nikki was being delusional. "Mrs. Procter, I'll stop coming over if you hate me so much. You have to remember to take your meds …"Nikki hoped that Janice would at least try to stop her from leaving. Funnily enough, her behavior reminded Janice of Jessica Potts. Kenneth initially had feelings for Janice, but Jessica pulled the same trick as Nikki to extinguish Kenneth'
Olivia felt slightly strange as she was shopping with Janice. It was the first time she went shopping with her mother-in-law. She finally understood what it meant to be a big spender. Janice had many brand-new clothes at home but still bought a whole pile of them without even batting an eye. Olivia wasn't sure if she was the same before she lost her memories. But at the moment, she felt troubled when she looked at those prices. Janice was completely unfazed. "Just spend the money. If you don't spend it, are you planning to let some other woman spend it for you? Don't worry, the Millers are stacked." Olivia smiled awkwardly, then she heard Janice add, "The Procters are pretty well off, too."Olivia didn't know anything about the Procters. She had heard that Janice was adamant about marrying Kenneth. She even turned down her childhood friend for Kenneth, which made her grandfather furious. The Procters had tried to stop her from marrying Kenneth, but to no avail. When they learned
