While Olivia was looking up Ethan and Marina's names online, her mind was full of his affectionate expression.However, her body was trembling instinctively the moment she clicked the word "search".Her unconsciousness was telling her that she was afraid, but she didn't know what she was afraid of.Was she afraid that what Darrell said was the truth?Right when the articles were going to pop up, she thought her heart was going to jump out of her chest.Soon, the articles were shown. Despite Olivia's nervousness, there was no information related to Ethan and Marina.Olivia deleted the search column to look up Ethan and Marina separately. Based on a webpage regarding Ethan, Olivia's name was clearly stated as his spouse.There was also a tag about the recent announcement that she was his hidden wife.She heaved a sigh of relief, reprimanding herself for thinking nonsense. She figured that Darrell was making up a story to drive a wedge between her and Ethan while Ethan wasn't around.In
The man's appearance corresponded to Black Fox's description of Mr. Lancer.Ethan raised an eyebrow. The fake mustache on his face masked his aura.He tossed the chips in his hand and responded brusquely, "Count me in."Although Cameron Lancer looked ordinary, his eyes were shrewd.He smiled faintly upon hearing Ethan's answer. The glint that flashed across his eyes indicated that the prey had taken the bait.Cameron looked at Ethan's chips. "But I'm afraid you don't have enough chips yet."Brent chimed in haughtily, "He's loaded with cash. Show us the way."Noticing that Brent was another prey swimming in cash, Cameron deemed that it was his lucky day today.He led Brent the way to exchange chips worth three million dollars.Then, Cameron led the group downstairs. The farther they went, the fewer people they saw.It was safe to say that the game would be more confidential and come with bigger bets.Brent reminded Cameron, "There are no surveillance cameras, right? Small bets can be se
As Black Fox had said, there were all kinds of people in Polaris. Not all of its members were skillful in martial arts.Some of them acted as an informant while some of them acted as a middleman; some of them were in charge of the early stage of the tasks while some of them were in charge of executing them.Cameron was under Ethan's control in a fleeting second. He spilled some tea under Ethan's threat.From there, Ethan found out that Rubus was in the same city as well."Sir, my authority only allows me to contact Rubus. He'll never meet me. I'm just the middleman. Please spare my life!"Ethan exchanged glances with Brent, and the latter understood what he meant.As long as Rubus was in this city, they would track down his whereabouts through his number. It wouldn't be difficult to catch him.Brent immediately prepared the devices. In case Cameron rebelled, Ethan took a syringe and approached him."What are you going to do?""Do as I say. If you snitch on us, I'll have you taste what
Ethan raised a finger. "Let's move. Contact each other if there's anything.""Got it." Kelvin left with the bodyguards. But there was no sign of excitement on Ethan's expression, only tranquility.After going against Rubus a few times, Ethan realized that Rubus was a careful person. If Ethan wanted to win, there would be no room for mistakes."Brent, look into his residence. See if there's any problem.""Okay, Mr. Miller." Brent's fingers danced across the keyboard. Soon, he found out the exact location of the residence. He zoomed in to see a mansion by the sea. The scenery was breathtaking."Mr. Miller, look. This is the place.""Find out who the owner is.""On it."Ethan controlled the cursor to observe the building. "There are woods behind the house. The house is facing the sea. Be careful not to lose him.""Got it. I'll inform Kelvin of the details."Ethan touched his wedding ring. This was their best chance to capture that person; Ethan couldn't afford to let him escape.As long
Ethan didn't stop for a moment at all. Even though it was late at night, he showed no sign of exhaustion.The thought of living a happy life with Olivia after catching the mastermind spurred him to rush to Seaside Streets as soon as possible.The car was driven in the darkness at full pelt. There were a lot of cars on the street, carrying hundreds of people who then surrounded the whole mansion.Ethan alighted from the car hurriedly before dashing over.The smell of trees and blood lingered in the salty sea breeze that brushed past those men's faces. They worked for Ethan."What's the situation?" asked Ethan anxiously.Cyril walked out of the crowd. "Mr. Miller, that person was injured and jumped off the sea. Kelvin and the others are after him."Ethan's brows knitted, not expecting such an accident after making so much preparation for it."Take me there."Karma always found its way to its prey.Previously, Olivia was forced to jump into the sea; now, it was the mastermind's turn."Di
Janice chose a cocktail dress for Olivia too. Different from Janice's dark green dress, Olivia's was white.Wearing white pearl earrings and the bracelet that was specially meant for Mrs. Miller, Olivia seemed like the prettiest flower of all.Meanwhile, it was Jessica's first time attending the Millers' event as Mrs. Miller Senior.She looked like a jewelry model with all the accessories she donned. It was as if she was afraid that others wouldn't know that she was rich.She hoped she had more heads and arms to flex her wealth with all her accessories.The Miller family hadn't made an official announcement, but word had gotten out within the circle.Janice had been resting in the Miller residence after getting dumped. Harold was already old, but his son worried him.In the end, Jessica managed to become Mrs. Miller Senior.So what if Janice was married to Kenneth early on? After trying to win his heart for so many years, she still divorced in the end.Janice hadn't shown herself yet,
Time seemed to cease. Janice's and Olivia's beauty was too surreal to be true.One of them was like a flower blooming in spring while the other was like the moon in fall.Kenneth's fingers tightened around his wine glass. It felt like a dream to him. He began doubting if that was the Janice he knew.Countless images of Janice smashing items and her anguish screams played in his mind. His memories of her had always been of her begging him not to go or her scolding and humiliating Jessica.Now, her cold gaze swept across the crowd like that of a superior woman. It didn't stay on him for a second.It was so unfamiliar that it seemed like they were strangers.On the other hand, Darrell was staring at Olivia in a daze. He was aware of how pretty she was, but he didn't expect her to turn into a belle in that minimalistic dress.As she looked at everyone with an indifferent gaze, she ignited his sense of competitiveness for some reason.The three's appearance drew everyone's attention.Janice
It was Darrell again. Olivia lifted her head and shot him a cold gaze. "Is anything the matter?"He was wearing a white suit. In addition to his good looks, others perceived him as a gentleman. She was the only person who knew how evil his intentions were beneath that facade."Why are you giving me the cold shoulder? I'm just worried about you.""Didn't I tell you that I'll dislocate your jaw if you aren't careful with your words?"He touched his wrist instinctively. "You look cold, but you have quite a temper. It makes me curious about something—does your character change this much in bed as well?"As soon as he finished, Olivia splashed the glass of warm water in her hand onto Darrell's face.Despite her small action, everyone turned to them within a fleeting second. The two were involved in the gossip, so people's eyes were always on them.Jessica, whose expression had changed, hurried over to them."Liv, what's going on here? Did my son do anything to you? You're humiliating him
