The first thing that impressed Liana about Madame White was her youthful appearance, and it was obvious that a lot of work had gone into maintaining her appearance. Her body was well-proportioned, her skin had a youthful glow, and - apart from a few faded crow's feet - her face was smooth. Even her hair, tied up in a bun, was as dark as onyx.

She looked like a woman approaching fifty, although Liana knew her real age was over seventy, and sitting next to her, Greta, looked like her younger sister. And the way she dressed also spoke of elegance and nobility.

After she finished assessing the madam, Liana entered the room, and the people there looked her up and down, and there was malice in the way Betina and Suelen looked at her, there was hatred and envy in their eyes.

"Don't just stand there, please sit down!" Madame White spoke for the first time, and then Liana walked over calmly and sat down in front of them.

"Why did Madame White call me?" She asked directly, not interested i

    "You!" Suelen's face was completely clouded, and she hadn't expected Liana to insult her so openly. "You have crossed every line!" "That's right, what you're feeling is jealous of Suelen, just because she finished the project before you!" Betina spoke, and Sara frowned in displeasure, she had nothing against Liana, but she was definitely not her fan. But now she began to really dislike Liana. "Liana, you are really very arrogant, Suelen has spent so many years on her research, so it is normal that she will eventually complete the project, unlike you, who promised us the result in a month, although you have no experience in this field! I advise you to say goodbye before it is too late, or else you can taste my wrath!" "Sara is correct, Suelen has spent years on her research and is therefore more experienced than I am, but what makes me curious, is that why did she suddenly complete her project at this moment, while she literally made no progress for so many years before that?" Liana

    "I want to know, why did you help Suelen steal my project?" Liana asked as she walked towards him, who just stared at her, and then looked at Stevie and Jack. "I can tell you everything, but I will only after you get them out of the room!" "Looks like you still need to learn a lesson ..." Jack spoke up ready to start another series of punches, but Liana stopped him, saying. "Wait for me outside!" "What? You can't agree to his demand, Liana, what if he attacks you after we leave?" Jack questioned her surprised, this was surreal her request. "Jack is right, Liana, it's too dangerous to leave you alone with him, we don't know what he's capable of!" Stevie tried to intervene as well, equally concerned. "He won't hurt me, so please wait for me outside!" Liana spoke again trying to sound friendly. "It's going to be okay!" She spoke firmly, and Jack and Stevie knew they couldn't convince her otherwise, so they left the room, not without first taking one last look at Gabes. They dare

    "Hello?" Liana hesitated for a moment before answering. "I'm outside your house, come out for a moment!" He spoke before hanging up without even giving her a chance to say anything. Liana closed the phone and walked to the front door, and as she looked out the window, night had fallen, and Edward was standing beside his car. Over his usual white formal shirt, he had on a simple black jacket for warmth. He had his hands in his pockets and was looking up at the sky as if he were studying the constellation. Liana walked out the door and Edward retraced his steps, and as in many romantic movies, their gazes met, and in that brief moment of eye contact, Liana saw many complicated emotions swirling in his eyes. "Why did you call me?" She asked. "What do you mean, why did I call you? I ask you, why didn't you call me when something so big happened?" Edward asked in return, and there was no disapproval in his question, in fact, she could feel his concern. "You mean about that matter? T

    "So if it is too much trouble, it is not mandatory that I have to return to the lab." Liana spoke with sincerity, she was speaking strongly to Edward's face that even if without Edward's support she would achieve success. "Don't worry, there will always be a spot for you in the lab if I have anything to do with it. The solution is really very simple and I swear no one will be able to stand in your way." Edward faced her with a smile. "What solution?" "God, I'm hungry. How about we continue after dinner?" Two could play this game, and Edward knew that the moment he let the cat out of the bag, Liana would get up and leave. He could not allow that to happen. Why is it so hard to have a proper dinner with this woman? Edward groaned inwardly, and there was a long line of women wishing he would invite them to dinner, but as fate would have it, he was hooked on someone who was not part of that line. Of course, even Edward himself was surprised at how deeply he fell in love with the la

    "I think I should go." Liana stood up and said. There was nothing more to be said, and she knew it, so she turned to leave. There was determination and resolve in her every step. Edward stared intensely at her back and clasping his hands tightly, he jumped out of his seat to chase after her. Liana heard the door behind her open and felt the conditioned air from inside caress her skin. The next thing she knew she was pulled into a bear hug from behind! The sudden physical contact disturbed her... Edward held her tightly, giving her no room to maneuver out of the embrace, and before she could say anything, she heard it from behind. "This time, please be quiet, and bear with me for a while, I just want to hold you!" Liana gave in, hugging him wordlessly, and Edward felt helpless, his heart ached, he would rather she fight or be angry with him, anything but an emptiness of emotion. And for the first time in his life, Edward understood the feeling of hurt. Some time later, he finall

    "Since you trust your ex-wife so much, how about a bet? If her design is better than Suelen's, our family will welcome her with open arms and won't stand in your way if you want to pursue her again, how about it?" Sarah studied Edward for a long time before saying. Inwardly, Edward laughed self-deprecatingly, the question was not whether the White Family was willing to accept Liana or not, but whether Liana was willing to accept him back. It was not the White Family's initiative, but regardless, having your family's blessing might not be a bad thing. "You have a deal, but, what's the problem?" Edward nodded, and of course, he wasn't naive enough to think that his grandmother would put him in a bet just for fun, there had to be a catch behind it. "If her design is no better than Suelen, you are not allowed to see this woman again, and you will promise me to find a woman to marry. Of course, that person must not necessarily be Betina, as long as she is good enough to carry the White

    The next day, Liana was absent as she said, and Suelen was relieved because she thought Liana would make her appearance. However, she knew she couldn't let her guard down because, similar to her, Liana had a design of her own, she would make her appearance eventually. Suelen had to be ready because she needed to succeed before allowing Liana the chance to do so, and she had found the perfect puppet to carry out her orders. That was why Suelen purposely pushed Betina's buttons on the phone yesterday, she would attack Liana through Betina, and Suelen smiled smugly at the ingenuity of her plan. Besides Suelen, no one knew that underneath Betina's gentle and gracious demeanor lurked a vindictive and mentally unstable personality, and she believed that this was because Betina was used to getting everything she wanted from a young age, and she still had chills thinking about it. At that time, they were all school age, and they had a classmate who had a crush on Edward, and the girl's fa

    Her worry about Liana finishing the project before her had long since disappeared, and the victory was definitely hers. She was missing a few finishing touches before the product was sent to the hospital for Madame White, and no matter how capable Liana was, she could not finish building the artificial limb in such a short time. In conclusion, Suelen was so threatened by Liana's appearance that she didn't deign to keep up her facade any longer, and the moment she saw Liana, a smug smile appeared on her face. "Liana, I'm impressed that you still have the courage to show your face around here. Don't you know that success is already mine?" "Success, Suelen? Don't make me laugh" Liana scoffed, and Suelen didn't act courteously, so there was no reason for Liana to be polite to her! "How can you disrespect me like that? I will rule this lab, because my design is the best, and my product is almost complete, so that means you've already lost!" Suelen huffed angrily. "I'm sorry, but my re

    After Liana woke up, she was interrogated by the police, but since she couldn't remember anything, there was nothing she could answer. Fortunately, the hotel manager intervened to vouch for her. Later, the real killer of Veronica was arrested, so the police released her.He smiled and said, "It seems what they say is correct. The me in this second is different from the me in the last second. Changing the past is a very difficult thing to do because a large part of time and space will be distorted, and who is man to challenge the natural process of time and space?""You're right, but luckily, we managed to change the past," Liana nodded."No, we didn't change anything," Edward shook his head."We didn't?" Liana furrowed her brow; if they hadn't, how could he be so slow?As if he were reading her thoughts, Edward couldn't help but smile."But we changed the future.""What do you mean by that?""The man acknowledged our effort and was willing to give the world another 25 years, but we ch

    "He's escaping!" Edward hissed vehemently.He then leaped out of the window ledge and landed on the ground. This was the second floor, but he jumped without hesitation. Liana saw this and rushed down the stairs as fast as she could. Unfortunately, when she reached the ground floor, she could only see Edward's shadow fleeing.Liana used her top speed to catch up, and Edward was chasing the killer. The killer was running with Veronica on his back. He jumped into a car parked on the road, then threw Veronica inside and drove away.Edward almost caught up to the car but arrived a second too late. He could only watch as the car sped away."Get in!" Liana had already anticipated the killer's actions, so she had stopped a car at the side of the road, and Edward got into the car without hesitation."Chase that car in front of us!" Liana ordered the driver. The driver stepped on the gas pedal but asked uncertainly, "What are you planning?""Catch him, and this is all yours!" Edward, who was si

    After securing his room, Edward exited through the hotel's back door and headed towards Veronica's residence.Veronica didn't live far from the small hotel, but it would still take ten minutes to walk there. She resided in a dilapidated residential area. The surroundings consisted of old, abandoned three-story buildings. Most of them had broken windows and, looking from the outside, appeared completely dark and uninhabited.Only a few rooms had dim lights filtering from within. The streetlights in this residential area were all broken, and the place was dark. Occasionally, the hissing of cats from the overgrown bushes could be heard; it was the perfect setting for a horror movie.However, Liana wasn't afraid. Besides caution, there was no trace of fear on her face. She followed the address and inspected the buildings one by one, and after some effort, she finally found where Veronica was located.Liana was standing under the building, and when she looked up, she saw that the lights on

    "A girl from abroad, probably here to travel," replied the manager. "In that case, she'll definitely need a good tour guide." The man straightened his suit in an obvious manner and eagerly rushed out.The manager shook his head but didn't intervene. Women from out of town often fell prey to the town's men, and many of them considered themselves lucky to have experienced a foreign affair, when in reality, all these men were seasoned hunters, and their prizes were just women.If the girl didn't resist temptation, she would have a lot to lose. However, Carl wasn't concerned about the girl who had just left because she seemed entirely capable of taking care of herself.Liana walked for a while before realizing someone was following her. She saw a dark alley and entered it directly. The man behind her laughed cheerfully and quickened his pace.In the alley, Liana was soon cornered by the man. Initially, the man had intended to follow her for a while longer, but he knew this alley like the

    Armed with a curious heart, Liana entered this small, old-looking hotel. Sitting behind the antique counter was a middle-aged man tallying the accounts. He was thin, and though the shirt he wore was outdated, it was of a certain luxury, and there was a calculating glint in his eyes. Liana could tell, with just a glance, that he was the hotel manager.The manager saw her, and his gaze swiftly traversed her entire body. He then stood up with a smile to inquire."Accommodation?""Yes, give me your best room," Liana said as she handed him her temporary identity, as she had acquired temporary residence in the country and didn't need to carry her passport.The manager accepted her identity and studied it. He asked with a smile, "Where are you from? It says here that you're not from this country.""The United States," Liana replied in an emotionless tone. Normally, others wouldn't have pressed further, but the manager typed her information unhurriedly and continued to ask."Are you here to t

    "This is her," Lilith handed them a photo and introduced, "Her name is Veronica, and she lived in Darlin, here in the United States, and was murdered in a homicide case ten years ago, and the killer gruesomely dismembered her body, but they never found the body, and what you need to do is to find the killer or desecrate her body. I've also compiled all the information I could find about her, so you can take a look now."Lilith then opened her laptop to show the information about Veronica. Liana and Edward thought Veronica would have a complicated background, but to their surprise, she was a simple and ordinary woman, and the only noteworthy thing was that she was raped and gave birth to a child. However, her child was stolen from her, and she fell into depression, barely surviving on the streets.Nevertheless, misfortune did not leave her life.When she was 30, she was brutally murdered, and the case remains unsolved to this day. Nobody knew who the killer was or what the motive was.

    At that time, I foresaw something and chose to settle there. I conducted at least ten years of research and reached a bottleneck. Similarly, I was afraid that Walter Roberts would notice our scent, so I brought them with me when I left," Lilith recounted in a distant tone, and Liana and Edward still had difficulty understanding her, but they knew she was talking about Gabbe's parents.Unfortunately, they all perished during various experiments, news that caused Gabbe to withdraw for a long period of time. Only Lilith survived. Liana understood that her mother was not a coward. She also participated in these dangerous experiments and survived, probably due to luck and ability.However, they still hadn't achieved what she foresaw. Could it be the apocalypse? Liana asked the question, and Lilith nodded."Yes, I foresaw the apocalypse, and it will happen soon. But don't wo

    "What will make you stop?""I don't need anything," the man smiled indulgently."You must have something you desire," Lilith turned to look at him. "Tell me what it is, maybe I can fulfill your wish.""I'm honored to hear that from you. I'm glad I had this conversation with you today, and thank you for allowing me to be in the presence of the brightest person in the world," the man raised his eyebrow slightly.Lilith understood what he meant.He didn't need anything; he simply enjoyed talking to her.He was wrapping up the conversation, and no one would stop his plan, not even her.However, no matter how dark he was, he was still a man.If he were a man, he would be prone to regrets and ideals, and Lilith believed that he, as an individual, was more than just a rush to destroy the world.Lilith's calm eyes gazed into his, and her voice was low but sounded like heavenly music in his ears."Think carefully, what is still buried deep in your heart? Destroying the world is easy, but can y

    "You used the memory cells?" Lilith's gaze scanned her entire body, and she immediately realized the truth."You are definitely the brightest woman there is, I'm very impressed," the man clapped his hands together as he spoke."Do you need something from me?" Lilith wasn't surprised, nor did she show any visible reaction to his easy admission; she simply asked in a soft tone."Of course, I overheard everything just now. If you don't mind, I believe we can have an interesting conversation," the man said in a friendly tone."Okay," Lilith nodded, and the mysterious man smiled and extended his hand."Please!" Lilith followed him without hesitation. They entered another room, and the difference from Walter Roberts' room was that this one was larger and more luxurious. It was the chief secretary's office, and there was a photo of him on the desk. However, compared to the man in front of Lilith, the man in the photo appeared refined and exuded a kindness cultivated by age. The man before h
