The ringtone sound was such common ringtone that it could not be a more common sound in the house like death was coming...

Olivia stared in the direction of the door, her nails digging deep into the flesh as she forced herself to her feet. One step at a time, she walked downstairs heavily and fearfully.

She had been avoiding it, afraid of exposing Milo's identity, so she refused to discuss and believe it.

However, it seemed she had no way to escape. With no retreat, she could only accept the harsh truth.

However... Why?

Kate supported her from the side. She was worried when she saw her face pale and her forehead covered with fine beads of sweat. "Pheebs, don't force yourself. Let's find someone else. You're not gonna find them by yourself."

Olivia did not answer. She dragged herself to the door, her right hand shakily grabbing the doorknob.

She gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, and pushed the door outward.

The man outside the door looked the same. He held up his phone and

    Olivia raised her hand to slap away his and was instantly quiet. "I didn't mean to scold you.""Oh, that's better."Ken snapped, "The security guards ran over earlier, saying there is something wrong with the reservoir nearby, and it may collapse. So they asked us to gather at the bomb shelter.""And now?""They said it's a system bug, so there was a mistake. There's no danger, and we're safe, and they let us come back."Olivia frowned and wiped the tears from her face. "Is there a reservoir near here?"Ken took out his phone, opened a map, found the location, and showed her. "Here, it's not very close, but it's within the range.""Oh."Olivia thought of Milo and asked, "So what's Sir doing here?""He happened to come over to find you, and the security guards took him to take refuge with us. He coincidentally ran into us there. Stop overthinking so many complicated things. There are a lot of good people in this world."She should have been angry, but Ken told her off instead.

    Olivia went into the house and cleaned up with Mrs. Simmons. Then she comforted the two children and told them to go upstairs and get changed before discovering that Kate was missing.She looked around to find Ken sitting on the sofa and said flatly, "You don't need to look for her. She's in her room."Olivia looked away and sat across from Ken. "Did you see her go in?""Yeah, she also observed whether I've left through the crack of the door.""What did you do to her?"Ken looked puzzled. "What can I do? I rarely visited her when she was in the hospital. Even if I did see her, we only exchanged some pleasantries. If people didn't know we were siblings, they'd think we're only doctor and patient."Olivia rolled her eyes. "Why do you sound so proud?""Oh."Ken sighed. "You know how my sister is. We used to be close when we were kids, and then... didn't you see what she's done is only getting worse?"Olivia poured herself a glass of water and drank without answering.What could

    "Liv, don't let your imagination run wild. Maybe it's not that complicated."Olivia shook her head in horror. "No, I have a gut feeling it's that person."With that said, she tightened her grip on Ken's arm. "Don't you think it's a coincidence that this happened right after Dorothy was put in a mental hospital?"It was indeed coincidental. Ken could not argue with that."But why all this trouble when he should have no animosity with you?""Because of my statement."Olivia forced herself to calm down. "I mentioned in my statement that I suspected someone had set this up. They're using this incident to warn me and let me know that if I kept talking nonsense and helping John, they would make me lose my two children..."Olivia's phone rang before she could finish speaking.Her hands trembled as she answered the call. "Wilbur?""Madam, please pack your bags right away. I'll pick you up in half an hour."Olivia was confused. "What happened?"Wilbur was silent. He hesitated for a m

    Olivia pinched her thigh to suppress her fear. She only let go when she stopped shaking. She heaved a sigh and quickly packed up.Life had been scary in the past few years, so she was pretty experienced at packing up and running for her life.She packed everything in ten minutes.Lest she scare the children or Mrs. Simmons, she suppressed her fear and went to knock on Kate's door."Kate, I know you're in there. Come on out. We're leaving."Kate opened a crack, peered through it, and asked, "Where's my brother? Is he gone?""No, but you're coming out. We're leaving.""Why? I... I don't want to see him."Olivia sighed. "Kate, this is not the time for petty behavior. Staying here could be dangerous. Got it?"Kate could tell from her expression that something must have happened to make her hurry everyone out of Elegance Gardens.Just as Kate was about to open the door, Ken came over. "The kids' things are ready. Go straight downstairs to check Mrs. Simmons' progress. We can leave

    Five minutes later.Mrs. Simmons had already packed her bags and was in the living room."Miss, why did Sir suddenly say that this house needs to be renovated? I don't see anything wrong with it. It's not about the reservoir, is it?""Mrs. Simmons, he owns the house after all. We have no right to ask why. We're lucky to have a roof over our heads."Mrs. Simmons looked around a little reluctantly. "Oh, we're leaving in such a hurry that I even have to leave the pots and pans behind. I liked the marble pot..."However, she was only muttering to herself.Ken and Olivia sat on the couch. As if by agreement, the two were silent as they looked ahead in a daze. No one knew what was on their mind.Though the two children were young, they were clever. Especially Sam, who had experienced a lot since little and was observant.Therefore, he could probably figure out what was going on, even if the adults said nothing.Their departure had nothing to do with renovating the house, and it prob

    However, the reporter was not intimidated. He took another recording microphone out of his bag and said with a smile, "Ms. James, are you angry with shame because I'm right?"By the way, where are you going with your luggage and servant? Are you going to hide?"Seriously, Ms. James, there are so many stories about you that I'm starting to wonder if you're the dead Olivia Larson. Or else I don't understand why Mr. Freeman would kill for you."Especially your two children. They don't look like Mr. Quinton's children. Am I right?"Olivia shuddered as her hand involuntarily tightened around her luggage.The reporter must be somebody. He came prepared.Their purpose was to make things up and stir up trouble."Have you said enough?"Olivia gazed coldly at him as her thin lips said, "I said I won't go easy on anyone who tried to hurt my children. Even if you're a reporter, could you talk nonsense? I feel disappointed for your parents that you're aggressive and vulgar with a child not

    The man on the other end of the line paused and said coldly, "What information have you got?""No, I just saw them taking their luggage, looking like they were running away. I asked many tough questions, but she didn't answer any. I can't just make things up, can I?""Ha, even if you make something up, make up a decent story."The man held his cheek and nodded reluctantly. "Got it."Then he seemed to recall something suddenly and said, "By the way, I recognize the man who came to pick them up. It's Zac's man.""Zac?"The person on the other end of the line was silent for a while before saying with a sneer, "Okay, got it. Just handle the news article.""Yes."...After what happened, everyone in the car was silent, so the atmosphere was unusually grave.Ken was the first to speak."Don't worry. I'll take care of the media and keep the children out of it."Olivia frowned. That was not what she was worried about.Someone must have planned these reporters' sudden appearances.

    After changing cars, Wilbur returned to the main road and drove half an hour out into the countryside. They went through a forest before coming to a stop."Madam, we're here."Olivia got out of the car and looked at the house in front of her. She did not know what words she could use to describe it for a moment.It looked like a cabin in the woods but had walls around it. It had an iron gate, surveillance cameras, and alarms. The walls also had electric fences. You could say anyone trying to break in here would be dead meat."I didn't even know Zac had such a place."Ken was shocked as he looked around. "This place is safe."Wilbur helped get the luggage out of the car and said, "Madam, I know you have to suffer by staying here, but Mr. Quinton is worried that you would be in danger outside. So he would like you to stay here until the mastermind is found."Olivia nodded. "I understand, but..."She frowned. "I don't have a problem with that, but doesn't Ken need to take care of

    Elegance Gardens.As soon as Olivia entered the door, Ken appeared out of nowhere with Fred and Kate standing beside her. Then, the three of them looked at her with surprisingly serious eyes.Olivia was stunned for a moment. “What’s the matter? I just went out for a meal. Why are you so serious?”“Was Jennie the one who took you out?”It was Ken who spoke first.Olivia nodded. “Well, yes.”“Liv, are you crazy? You went out to eat with her?”Fred stepped forward, looked her up and down, and said with a frown, “Have you forgotten how she betrayed you? You should never tolerate someone who cheats even once. What if she had bad intentions of inviting you out?”“Pheebs, that woman is not as straightforward as you think.”Out of the three, Ken was the calmest. “Did she say what she was doing in Ocean City?”Olivia shook her head. “I asked, but she didn’t say anything. She only said that she wanted to stay in Ocean City and asked if I was still angry with her.”Hearing this, Fred r

    Jennie brought Olivia to a popular fondue place. The melted cheese looked very appetizing, and it was the kind that Olivia liked in the past.However, she could not raise her spirits today, and after eating a few mouthfuls, she put down her fork and started to space out.Jennie gave her a piece of strawberry. “Pheebs, eat more. You are so skinny now. Why do you still eat so little?”“Maybe I don’t have a good appetite.”“Don’t you always have an appetite for cheese? Pheebs, how long have you been like this? Have you seen a doctor?”“I’m used to it. It’s fine.”Jennie suddenly grabbed Olivia’s hand and looked at her solemnly. “Pheebs, what’s wrong with you? You’ve really changed a lot, and I don’t even know you anymore. Even though I could tell you were sad before, you were still very positive, but now… I’m worried that you’re going to do something stupid.”Upon hearing this, Olivia was stunned for a moment. Then, she forced a smile. “No, I just haven’t slept well recently, so I’

    The next day, Olivia woke up and planned to go to the mental hospital to find Dorothy without telling everyone, but she received an unexpected call.“Pheebs, it’s me. I’m in Ocean City. Do you want to meet?”Olivia was stunned for a few seconds before she realized who the other party was. Then, she could not stop herself from frowning.“Jennie Sutherland?”“Pheebs, are you still mad at me? Why are you calling my full name like that?”Olivia pursed her lips. She smiled dryly and did not explain.Perhaps it was because too many things had happened recently and they had affected her state of mind. Unbeknownst to her, she became less tolerant now.Whatever happened in the past had not blown away like dust, but remained in her heart and turned into a deep grudge.When she heard that Olivia was not speaking, Jennie smiled. “Are you free for a meal? Pheebs, do you not even want to eat with me now? I am genuinely…”“Next time.”She was still a murder suspect. Plus, she still had not

    ‘Zy...‘This woman looks like Zy…’Fiona Miller glanced at her, frowned slightly, and stepped forward to get in front of her.“You are so weak, but you still have time to worry about me? Stand behind me.”Olivia was taken aback. Not only did they look alike, but they even spoke similarly, especially so as she stood in front of Olivia. They were so similar…Before Olivia knew it, her eyes were red.‘Zy…’However, her Zy died in her arms. She watched Zy lose her breath with her own eyes, so how could she appear here?However, Olivia was really greedy for more time with Zy, so greedy that she did not want to be rational anymore.When she regained her composure, she saw Fiona and the fat woman engaging in a fight, so she hurried forward to help. Olivia pulled the fat woman’s hair back and then separated the two.The fat woman cursed a few times, but in the end, she was still a little scared, so she ran to the opposite side of the room and squatted down.Under the light, Fiona’s

    “He really is innocent!”Olivia roared as she watched the officer walking away.However, the other party did not look back at her. It was as if no one cared about the truth at all.Just as she lost her footing and fell, someone pulled her hair forcefully.“Ah!”“Hello, b*tch! Someone wants us to take good care of you!”When Olivia heard that, an unusually tall and burly woman had already dragged her to the ground. The woman then sat on Olivia’s body and slapped her with all her might.Olivia had just had a fever and was still weak. Thus, when she was slapped hard all of a sudden, she felt her brain buzzing instantly.However, the other party did not seem like she was going to stop. After that, the woman raised her hand and slapped Olivia again.After two slaps, blood spilled from the corner of Olivia’s mouth, contrasting against her pale face even more eerily.Just as the fat woman was about to slap her for the third time, Olivia suddenly exerted all her strength to grab the

    After a while, someone kicked open the door, and uniformed police officers walked in with an arrest warrant.“Miss Olivia Larson, we need you to come with us.”Olivia was taken aback, but Fred had already rushed forward before she could register what was going on.“There is no Olivia Larson here. You have found the wrong person. My sister still has a fever and needs to rest. Please get out immediately!”However, the leader of the group just glanced at him, ignored him, and then walked around him to the bed. After that, he looked down at Olivia, who was lying weakly on the bed.“Ms. Larson, you probably don’t want me to take coercive measures, do you?”Olivia did not know what was happening, but she knew very well that her identity had been revealed. She had nowhere to escape, so she had to face the music.Therefore, she lifted the blanket and stood up.“Okay, I’ll go with you. But please wait for a moment downstairs to let me change, okay?”The man glanced at her and nodded, “

    Olivia fell ill. However, scared of being hounded by the paparazzi, Mrs. Simmons was too scared to send her to the hospital, so she could only call Ken over.The two were busy these days and did not have much contact with each other. Ken came in and froze when he saw Olivia lying in bed.'Why is her face so pale? Why is she so frail? She's so thin that she looks like a piece of paper from far away and has blended into the covers.' "Ken? You came?"Groggy, Olivia felt someone standing at the end of the bed watching her, so she tried hard to open her eyes to see. Seeing it was Ken, she squeezed out a smile."Jeez, Mrs. Simmons. I'm just a little tired. Did she have to bring you over?"Ken frowned, went up to test her forehead, and said, "You're an adult. Why did you get yourself into this with no one around to look after you? You're a mother. You don't even know you have a fever and still stay up all night."Olivia pressed her lips together and said nothing."Are you worried ab

    Xavier bailed out Olivia that night."Pheebs, don't worry. Nothing's going to happen to you. Trust me."Xavier grabbed her hand and comforted her repeatedly, but Olivia did not respond. She was like a stunned puppet.She had temporarily left the place that scared her, but her heart was still unsettled.She thought everything was over when John died.However, it seemed John's death was the beginning of everything.Who was behind all this?She desperately wanted to know.She suddenly grabbed Xavier's arm and used an almost imploring tone, "Xavier, help me find out who did this, will you?"She knew she could only solve the problem from the root by finding the real culprit and source.Xavier frowned. "I will. Please give me a moment.""Thank you...""Don't thank me. You're making yourself a stranger."Xavier opened the car door for her as he spoke. "Get in the car. I'll take you home. Lyla and the rest are waiting for you at home."Olivia froze at the mention of Lyla. Then sh

    After leaving Quinton Group, Olivia got another call from the school."Mrs. Quinton, you can be at ease now that we've investigated this and all those involved have been handed over to the police."The person on the other end of the line paused. "Besides, we've also solved the case of Sam smashing the car. All the teachers involved have been fired, and the students have been ordered to transfer to another school. You can let Sam and Miss come back to school without any worries, Madam."She frowned as she hung up.She was surprised by the way the school handled this.She did not believe the school handled it voluntarily. After all, the principal had arrogantly demanded an apology from her.Why fire everyone all of a sudden?The more Olivia thought about it, the more she realized that it must have something to do with the board of directors, but who was secretly helping her?'Is it Zac?'Is he atoning for it in such a way because he knows he did something wrong but is too scared
