Alexander l smiled casually. “Well, you said it’s hard to trace the toxin’s origins now that Rhea has died. Would it be a lot easier if she isn’t?”“Rhea isn’t dead?” Lily asked.“I’m just saying, what if.” He paused and then chose his words more carefully. “Her death seemed too sudden. It was almost as if she had died on purpose.”Lily agreed with him. “That’s right! I feel the same way about it. I’ve dealt with her several times, and she’s cool-headed and almost cold-blooded. Furthermore, she used to be a top student overseas and had received many awards, not to mention she must’ve done more experiments than I have. How could such a severe explosion happen so suddenly?“Even if it was truly an accident, I doubt she would have no time to escape, let alone get herself burned beyond recognition.” Lily had heard from the police that Rhea’s body was unrecognizable when the firefighters brought her out.Lily thought it was rather suspicious. ‘If it was not to purposely hide something,

However, Alexander showed no joy and looked a bit solemn.“I received news about him about half a month ago, but I didn’t tell you because you were busy,” Alexander explained casually. “He’s safe now and still alive.”“That’s great news!” Then, heaving a sigh of relief, she seemed to remember something and fished out her phone to make a call. “What are you doing?” Alexander asked while holding her hand. Lily moved her phone-holding hand away and said, “I’m calling Olivia to tell her the good news! Oh, did your men tell her?”‘I bet she’ll be thrilled to discover that Edward is still alive and safe!’Holding her hands with both hands, Alexander stopped her from making the call and said, “You don’t have to tell her. She knows about it.”It was at this moment that Lily sensed that he was acting strangely. He is not thrilled or excited to share the news with her, but rather unhappy. Why?’“Did something happen?” she asked hesitantly. When she asked the question, different scena

It was not far away, and soon they reached Olivia’s apartment building. Lily had been here before and knew the area well, but before getting out of the car, she couldn't help but think, "How about I call Olivia and let her know we're coming?"Alexander shook his head. “If you make that call, we might not be able to see them.”“Why?” Lily was taken aback. “I’d like to know why as well. It’s best if you ask them that later.” Pointing his chin to the upper floors, Alexander opened the car door. They got out one after another and went upstairs without bringing the bodyguards. Standing before the door to the unit, Lily still could not understand what Alexander meant. She wondered why they could not see the couple if she had called Olivia beforehand.‘Also, Olivia seldom contacted me lately. When she did so twice, it was through emails. It’s something she has never done before.’Pressing the doorbell, she heard noises inside, but no one answered. Only when she pressed several times d

Lily went in after her, then gave Alexander a look to signal him to join her.Glancing around the place, Lily saw that it was a bit messy. Olivia was a neat person who usually kept the apartment tidy. However, now the carpet lay crooked, the trash can was almost overfilled, and drinkwares were placed haphazardly on the table. There were traces of someone lying on the sofa, with the cushions everywhere. However, they only saw her and not Edward. When she was downstairs, Lily wanted to ask about Edward’s health, but she changed her mind after seeing Olivia’s uncharacteristic attitude. “Olivia, you hardly called me recently, although not much is happening at the studio. Did something happen?” She paused and watched as Olivia poured a glass of water, then asked tentatively, “Is it because of Edward?”Even though Olivia was facing away from her, Lily could see her shoulders shudder. A few seconds later, Olivia brought the glass over and gave it to Lily. Then, fixing her stare on A

Lily pulled Olivia over when she saw her acting like that. “Oliva, stop letting your emotions cloud your judgment, and let’s discuss it like adults, shall we? What the hell happened? Why did you think Alex pushed Edward and made him a human shield? Who told you that?“Don’t forget about the incident with the ring. Perhaps someone tried to turn us against each other.”That had to be it. Otherwise, Olivia would not have become so emotional and even asked Lily to choose between her and Alexander. Now, Olivia had ended up treating Alexander as a murderer.“No, that’s not the same thing!” Olivia shook her head and firmly denied it.“How is it not the same? Even that could be fake, let alone an accusation. You—”Before Lily could finish, a voice interrupted her, “Edward told you that, didn’t he?”Lily looked over her shoulder in astonishment as it was none other than Alexander who said it.“Alex?” Confused, she looked at him in shock.Olivia was also surprised as she did not expect h

Since Edward had yelled at him, Alexander did not argue and stopped. “When and how did you return? Why did you block me on your phone? You know I’ve been looking for you. Just what the hell happened?”“We both know what happened.” Edward said coldly, “Why should we go through it again?”“I don’t!” Alexander remained still, but his imposing demeanor had not diminished. He raised his brows and studied Edward up and down. “Tell me what exactly happened that day. We got caught in a gunfight before boarding the plane.“You let me go first and took bullets for me. I’ll always remember what you did. The first thing I did when I came back was to send people to look for you, but they failed. I want to know what happened after that and how you returned!”Alexander immersed himself in his memories. He spoke clearly without a hint of guilt on his face. Meanwhile, Olivia kept staring at him to try and find a loophole in his story or trace of him lying. However, she had an inexplicable feeling t

Seeing him in this state, Olivia threw herself over to Edward, knocking Alexander aside. “Enough! Stop pushing him!”“He suffered from injuries when he returned and hasn’t fully recovered! Whatever happened, he has ended up like this, thanks to you. I beg you not to disturb him and let him recuperate, okay?” She cried as she spoke.Alexander wanted to say something else, but Lily could not bear to see Olivia crying so sadly and put her hand on his shoulder. “Give him some time. You both need to cool down.”He had something else to say, but Lily had signaled him to stop with a look. Alexander thought about it, then let go of the wheelchair before standing up.He looked down at Edward and said, “I don’t know what you’ve been through or what you heard, but I hope you’ll think about this carefully. Although you work for me, I think of you as a brother. Do you remember how I’ve treated you over the years?”However, Edward kept looking away and did not want to listen.Alexander narrowe

Olivia quickly turned back and tried to read Lily’s lips. Then, just after Lily finished mouthing two sentences, Edward snapped, “Why aren’t they leaving yet? Do you want them to stay and me to leave instead?”“No, they’re waiting for the elevator. I’m closing the door now!” Olivia said it quickly, gave Lily a small nod, and then closed the door.Seeing the door shut, Lily let out a barely audible sigh.Wrapping his arm around her shoulders, Alexander walked with her toward the elevator and lowered his head. “So? What did you say to her?”“I told her to call me without Edward knowing and that I’d like to speak to her alone.” Glancing back toward the door, she saw it was closed and whispered her answer.“Without Edward knowing?” Alexander pressed the elevator button while raising his eyebrows.“Yes!” Nodding, Lily looked at him. “Don’t you think there’s something very wrong with Edward?”“How could there be anything wrong with him? He's been by my side for years. "If I couldn't t

It was quiet inside the apartment. Olivia looked at Edward, who was sitting there with his head down, then sighed quietly. She then moved two steps closer before stooping to pick up the items off the ground.There was a blanket, a glass that had been knocked over and shattered, and other miscellaneous items.She had no idea why Edward had become crankier recently. She thought it was because he was injured and could not stand. After all, after getting wounded and betrayed simultaneously, he must have been devastated.That was why she could understand and tolerate his temper. But what happened today…She quietly picked up the pieces of the shattered glass, then carefully threw them into the trash can. Looking on without a word, Edward neither tried to stop her nor offered to help.Suddenly, he frowned, impatiently threw a trinket over, and said, “Stop picking them up!”Olivia felt a sudden, intense pain in the back of her hand where the small object had struck and caused her hand t

Olivia walked over. Seeing her reach out her hands, Edward wanted to ask her what she wanted, then felt his body rush forward. She rolled the wheelchair up to the couch and plopped onto it before bringing it closer so he could face her. Edward was stunned. “Edward, there’s something I’ve wanted to tell you for some days, but I didn’t know how.” Probably feeling brave due to the alcohol, Olivia rambled as she pulled at his wheelchair with one hand and held up the beer can with another. “Don’t you feel that you’ve become ill-tempered since you returned? It’s almost as if you’ve turned into a different person!” She said, then tilted her head back and took another swig.Edward said, “Oh? Have I?”He answered coldly with a tightly furrowed brow. “You have!” Olivia continued, pointing out, "At first I thought you must not be in a good mood because you're injured, and I could understand that. However, you’ve grown crankier and crankier after so many days. You’ve never acted like thi
