"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.

    "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

    "I assure you, Joseph, my work is not so easy to plagiarize, and she will face her punishment soon enough. Anyway, enough small talk, let's get to work." Liana gave a mysterious smile and sat down next to Joseph, and the task was another surprise to Joseph, as she wanted him to go get one of Suelen's prototypes, she wanted to modify the prototype instead of starting over. "What did you say? You want me to go ask Suelen's team for one of their finished prototypes?" Joseph thought he misheard her. "Yes!" "But that's their work, claiming just one as ours is still a bit..." Liana understood his concern, and she replied with a smile. "So what if those are their works? The design is mine, they were just the work. Since Suelen worked so hard to finish my design, not using her prototype would only disappoint her, don't you agree? Go and demand one of the finished prototypes from them, if anyone stops you, tell them they will have the right to reject it when they have over fifty percent of

    "I just need a lab, and that I get some reliable technicians and engineers, I'll finish this here in an hour at the most." By this time, Liana had finished studying Suelen's prototype, so she turned to Joseph and ordered. At the hospital, the group of surgeons led by Ramos and Suelen were already on standby, and all the White family members, including Betina, were there, after all, this was an important event for the family, and even the entire surgery building was locked down by security guards. Unrelated employees were not allowed in, and everyone was gathered in a gigantic conference room examining Suelen's artificial human limb, which was connected to a control panel and some doctors were testing it by issuing various commands. If they didn't know it was an artificial limb, they would think it was a real severed arm, it looked like one in terms of appearance! In fact, the White family lab had long ago perfected the appearance aspect of artificial limb technology. However, the

    "Miss Liana, it's ready!" Joseph ran excitedly toward her. "What should we do now, go to the hospital?" He couldn't wait for the slap in the face to begin and for Liana to claim back the glory she rightfully deserved. "Of course, we're going to the hospital. Isn't that right, Lilih?" Before Liana could answer, Jack interrupted anxiously. "You're right, we're going to the hospital now. It's time to slap some people in the face!" Liana couldn't help but smile as she noticed their anticipatory glances, and Jack and Joseph celebrated, they both had many reasons to be happy for Liana. When they arrived at the hospital, they found Tony waiting for them. "Miss Liana, you have finally arrived, President White ordered me to wait for you in the lobby, so thank God you have finally arrived!" Tony exclaimed happily, secretly relieved. "Has the surgery started?" Liana asked. "It will start soon!" "Take us there now." "This way." With Tony leading the way, they soon reached the top floor,

    John took the arm and studied it closely with a checker's eye, and then stared at Liana, as if mocking her. "But, that is completely the same as Suelen's design! Do you think we are all so dumb that we wouldn't be able to tell the difference? Liana, where did you get the courage to lie to us so openly‽" "Liana, why did you steal my design?" Suelen questioned angrily as if she had really been wronged, then again, the prototype was indeed hers, so if it was her, in such a way, she could claim that Liana stole her prototype. Suelen was angry on the surface, but in truth she was very happy because Liana gave her the perfect reason to crush her. "Yes, I admit that Suelen built that!" Liana freely admitted, and with that, Suelen and the others were surprised, they didn't expect her to admit her mistake so easily. "And that should be her claim, the job of making it, because the design behind it is not hers, but mine, she stole my design from me!" "Liana, you are accusing me unfairly, whe

    John was surprised by Liana's speech, and he could sense the truth in Liana's words, after all, she was either telling the truth or she was highly delusional. For some reason, he began to lean toward the former. "No, this is my project!" Suelen spoke confidently. "Liana barely spent two days in the lab, so there was no way she could have come up with something as good as this without internal research and testing!" "Suelen is right, I can attest to the time and effort Suelen has put into this project over the years, and I'm sure everyone in the lab will say the same!" Betina spoke supporting her friend, after all, she had a good position within the White Family, so she managed to pull most of the crowd to Suelen's side, but unfortunately, she couldn't shake Edward's conviction. "This design is Liana's, and I'm willing to stake my reputation on it!" Edward added against Betina's argument. "That's right. This is my sister's design, I'm willing to bet my life on it!" "I also believe

    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
