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
"I'm sorry, but we don't hire women over 30 here," the restaurant manager told Liana impatiently as he shooed her away.As Liana walked away apathetically, she heard the manager murmur softly: " Who would want to patronize my business if I had an ugly old waitress?" Liana frowned slightly. She thought about turning around and telling the manager that she was only 25 years old!However, she restrained herself when she saw her reflection in the window next to her.Her face had lost its youth and the glow that once decorated her eyes had long since faded.An emaciated frame, dry hair, a wrinkled face, and outdated clothes added at least 10 years to her appearance.She realized that she had become an old woman in recent years...even though she was only 25!Liana smiled bitterly as the hardships of the past few years flooded her mind. As she dragged her tired body away from the scene, she noticed a car stopping behind her.The arrival of a Maybach car did not go unnoticed by the restaurant
Sometimes dense can be cute, but Liana had the lethal combination of being dense and stubborn. Because of this, trouble tended to haunt the woman and the people around her. In fact, you could say that their marriage was ruined by his stubbornness and density. However, he did not expect her to be dumb enough to be unable to take care of herself, even with the large amount of alimony he had given her.Simply put, his encounter with Liana that day left a great impact on him. Edward was lost in thought, so he didn't answer Betina's questions. Before long, the car arrived at the restaurant.The two families were already there. Since the dinner was to discuss the nuptials, the attendees included his parents and their son, Dylan White. He had him with Liana.The little boy was a baby when they divorced, so he was four now.“Why don't we choose November 2 as the wedding date? It's an auspicious date and the national day of our country”. Edward's mother, old Mrs. White, said, smiling.Betina'
He smiled and said: "What wonderful news! It's great that you have recovered your memory! Let's forget all about the past and start over again. Sis, after my graduation this year, I promise I will work hard to support our family. Your body is still weak, so stay at home and rest. Leave everything to me, I'll bring plenty of money to support the three of us!”Liana answered with a smile. "I believe you, but please stop worrying about me, I assure you I'm fine," Liana understood Jack's words and realized how worried he was about her."Sister, you're still human, so how can you be okay with the drastic changes? You were a star student at the S Academy, heading for a bright future if not marred by that godforsaken accident.", Liana's encounter, if experienced by anyone else, would be extremely disheartening. Anyone would be frustrated if their bright future was forcibly taken away.However, Liana was not just any random person. She believed that her ability was not defined by a certificat
Jack asked curiously: "Who could it be?’’They were not used to receiving guests, so his interest was piqued, and as soon as he opened the door, he found a man dressed in an elegant suit."Excuse me, does Miss Liana Legrand live here?”"Yes, she does, but who are you? What do you want with my sister?”, Jack asked, and the man smiled."Excuse me, I am Tony, Mr. Edward White's personal assistant, and the president has asked me to deliver something to her, is she home by any chance?" The moment Tony revealed that he worked for the White Family, Jack's expression faded. However, his good manners still compelled him to say."My sister isn't feeling very well at the moment, but please come in," he said, making room."Thank you.”The horrible acoustic protection of the walls of their apartment and the tight overall space of the apartment meant that Liana could hear their conversation, even if she was inside her room.Their apartment had only two bedrooms and a living room, although the livin
Liana, on the other hand, was frustrated with Jack's insistence that she go to the hospital, he wanted her to go for a check"up, he tried to beg, to intimidate, but it was all in vain, she didn't want to spend what little money the family still had."Liana, if you continue to refuse to go to the hospital, I will call Edward to ask for the two million. I know that your reluctance comes from your refusal to increase our financial burden so that the check will be useful," Jack threatened, and Liana couldn't help but laugh."All right, you win, I'll go to the hospital, but on one condition," she said, getting out of bed and surrendering to her younger cousin." Perfect, so, tell me, what is your condition? " Jack asked, happy with his cousin's agreement." If I do all the tests and they say I'm fine, you'll stop bothering me if I want to stay at home, because I hate the smell of hospital!” "All right, I'll agree to that! " Jack nodded hastily, after all, his immediate mission was to take
45 minutes later...Liana used less than an hour to finish writing the program, and when she finished, she let out a long sigh and met Jack's astonished eyes, and handed the notebook back to him." Well, I think I managed to do what was requested, try it out and see if there are any errors, if it's usable, send it to your superior and ask for payment," Liana said as if this was something normal to do." Ham? Ahhh ... ok ... ok", Jack said, taking his notebook back and staring at her, as if still expecting an answer, an explanation for what had happened now, but Liana was too distressed and worried to notice that look. Her eyes were tired from continuous exposure to the intense brightness of the screen and it was adding to her already growing headache, so she just closed her eyes, and fell asleep, while Jack had to use every ounce of self-discipline not to shake his sister and wake her up, he really wanted to know, where did she learn her programming skills?Jack was full of questions,
"Lilih, your reading speed is so fast..." Jack whispered in shock as he took a bite of his apple, Liana finished reading two thirds of a book in half an hour." Actually, I'm just reading to familiarize myself with current technology, not reading in detail, you know? " Since Liana already had a good base, she could figure out which parts of the text she needed to concentrate on after just a quick scan, this way she didn't have to waste time reading things she already knew, and as soon as she finished reading, she already picked up another and continued her reading.Jack stared at her in silence, he still had difficulty accepting the reality that his sister was a master at computer programming." Lilih, how come I've never seen you near a computer in three years? " Jack asked curiously, after all, Liana's amnesia shouldn't have erased her motor memory or gone so far as to completely eclipse her computer knowledge, and there was no shortage of computer science talk in her household beca
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.

"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
