Kelvin hastily got someone to bandage Olivia's wound. Now, Olivia was wholly focused on Ethan, so she didn't feel the pain at all.

The doors to the operating room opened. Krystal walked out.

When she walked in, she was spirited and noble. But when she came out, even her lips were pale.

She needed help to walk, too.

She must have drawn too much blood, so her limbs had weakened.

When Krystal came over, she was in such a hurry that she didn't notice Olivia. Now, as Olivia observed her, she was examining Olivia as well.

She recognized Olivia right away.

Olivia was the woman Ethan always had on his mind.

After the operation, Krystal was also aware of what happened just now. With Ethan's capabilities, he would be able to protect himself under any circumstances.

Even if he got hurt, he wouldn't allow himself to get so seriously injured.

Almost his entire back was wounded, so there could only be one explanation.

He was shielding someone.

Who would be the woman he was protecting un

    The events tonight had happened too suddenly, and Brent was busy cleaning up as well.Kelvin was the only person accompanying Olivia right now.When she was in the car just now, she had taken off her down jacket. She was only wearing a thin sweater now.There weren't any heaters in the corridor. The cold wind picked up, making her feel colder.Olivia thought of that night a few years ago. She had stood there, waiting for Ethan in the cold wind as well.Kelvin wasn't too considerate. He only felt that Olivia looked a little pitiful from behind.The medical staff hurrying over seemed to be targeting her on purpose. "Step aside. Please don't stand in our way."It wasn't a bustling time at all. They simply didn't like her.If Ethan wasn't trying to save her, he wouldn't have suffered such severe injuries.In their eyes, Olivia was just a burden to Ethan.Kelvin was a lowly figure, and even he had to make sure he didn't piss anyone off. Many doctors in the army hospital had been

    After an operation that went on for hours, all the glass shards on Ethan's body were removed.For the moment, Ethan could only lie on his stomach.If a normal person suffered such injuries, they would get anesthesia. But Ethan painstakingly endured it.Those few hours were like hell to him.He had to constantly be awake so that he could see Olivia right away.Krystal walked up to him first. "Are you okay, Sova?"Ethan placed his chin on his crossed hands. He had already used up his energy, and he constantly had cold sweat because of his pain.He was already exhausted, but after the door opened, he still perked up and looked at the door.The first person he saw wasn't Krystal but Olivia instead.Ignoring Krystal's greeting, he said weakly, "Liv."It was only then that Olivia slowly walked over to him. Ethan reached out a hand, and Olivia held it.His palm was no longer dry. There was still sweat on it."I promised you that I would leave the operating room alive."With tha

    Originally, Olivia thought that it wouldn't be good for her image.But then, she thought more about it. People were always prejudiced, and she had already left a bad impression on everyone.Even if she stood and kept watch over Ethan today, the people who looked down on her would continue to do so.So, why should she worry about other people's gazes?Her body was already weak enough. She had also been standing for a long time, so her calves were turning sore.If she was half-sprawled on the bed, it would be torture for her waist and back."Sure, go ahead."Taking off her socks and shoes, Olivia got onto the bed. When Krystal saw that, she was extremely pissed."Y-You shameless woman! What are you doing?"Olivia blinked, saying with an innocent look, "As you can see, the wench is tired and needs to rest.""How can you sleep in the same bed as him?" Krystal was so frustrated that she almost stomped her feet.Olivia was even more exasperated now. "I didn't want to, but he refus

    They didn't manage to find the mastermind from before. But now, a new enemy had shown up. Also, their style was completely different from the person before.Olivia couldn't help but wonder if she had to hide under someone else's protection all her life.She recalled Mona's death and memories of other people getting hurt just to save her.That cruel rainy night had already turned into a shadow that forever loomed over Olivia's heart.If she didn't get stronger, she might not be lucky enough to survive the next hit.She thought about it for a long time. When it was almost dawn, and Ethan's vitals seemed to be stable, Olivia finally closed her eyes and rested for a while.The room was eerily quiet. It was only then that Krystal had a chance to peer at Ethan's face.When he was carrying out missions in the past, he would always wear a mask. No one knew his true appearance. And even if Krystal wanted to see it, she couldn't.At that moment, she envied Olivia a lot. Olivia co

    Ethan chuckled. "I know. Whether I'm sleeping or awake, I never want to let go of you."His face was very pale. His already fair face looked even more sickly now.He had just survived a close brush with death, and the operation alone took hours. But when he woke up, he behaved as if it wasn't his business."I heard that you didn't get anesthesia.""I didn't. I feared that if I died, I wouldn't be able to see you for one last time," he replied calmly. In reality, he only thought of one thing: Olivia was born with resistance to anesthesia, so every time she got hurt, she could only endure the pain.It was the same when she bled profusely during childbirth, when she was getting her arm stitched, and even when her wrist was hurt.So, Ethan didn't use anesthesia either. He wanted to commit to memory the pain Olivia had once gone through.More importantly, he wanted to see her as soon as he woke up.If the operation last night had failed, he would die in his sleep.When Olivia hea

    It would have been fine if Ethan hadn't said that. But once he did, Olivia's expression shifted."How long are you going to act selfishly under the pretense of doing it for my good?"Olivia vented all her dissatisfaction. "I loved you so much in the past, and I gave up everything for you. You have a mysterious job, and I didn't ask you about it."I also never asked you where you went on your business trips. I thought that this was my way of loving you, but what became of me in the end?""Liv." Ethan wanted to reach out and hold her hand, but Olivia dodged him."You know everything about me. When you're happy, you'll gladly spend a large sum to buy gifts for me, spoiling me to no end."But when you're upset, you take everything back and deny me every chance of escape, putting me in hell."But what about me? From the beginning until now, other than knowing that you're Ethan, what else do I know?"From the beginning, you loved me like you would love a pet. You thought this was f

    Brent had a stern look on his face. "Now that Mr. Miller's identity is exposed, the various forces that had grudges against him would pounce on him like hungry wolves to get revenge."The incident last night is one example. The organization behind those people was the central figure in Shadow Valley ten years ago. "They sent suicide squads who weren't afraid of death and were trying to drag Mr. Miller down even if it cost them their lives."When Olivia heard that, she felt some lingering fear. "Then he's in great danger now, right?""It's relatively safe here, but as soon as he leaves the military area, there will be danger everywhere. Also, I found out on the dark web that someone had posted an anonymous bounty for Mr. Miller."If anyone killed him, they would get a reward of 1 billion dollars. A high-reward bounty like that would usually attract private assassins and mercenaries. "After all, great rewards attract brave souls."As if he were an outsider, Ethan advised Olivi

    Olivia earnestly learned from the nurse the procedures to change the dressings. Then, she waited until there were just the two of them in the room.It was only then that Olivia got mad. "You called me darling?""If I don't do that, she will keep pestering me."Olivia said coldly, "You have quite a lot of admirers."With that, she pulled the blanket away, revealing his back, which was wrapped in bandages.Ethan explained, "Liv, she only changed my dressings once, and it was on my arm. That was all.""We're already divorced, so I don't care what she wants to do to you, nor do I want to." As Olivia replied, she cut the bandages away.Even as she spoke, her actions were gentle. She feared that she might touch his wounds."Liv, ever since the start, you're the only person who has touched my body. No other woman has done it but you." Ethan sighed.Olivia wanted to mock him. But then, the wounds under the bandages were revealed without warning.She had guessed last night that it

    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.

Olivia placed a bouquet before Quinn's gravestone. "Rest in peace, Quinn. I'll take good care of the family.

    "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!

    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

    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.

    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.

    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
