Chapter 332

After he hung up, Ethan looked at all the new leads before him. In the time Olivia was out of town, he had gotten to investigating the whereabouts of Toxic Hive and about the past. He found the hometown of Paul Cruz and Clara Foster. According to what his people found out, the child had been gone for some days. From the pictures provided by the villagers, the child looked a lot like Belle and had some of Paul's features. Paul and Clara had also disappeared from Aldenvine. Even though he couldn't bring the child back, their existence was proof enough. Someone had pinned the blame on Jeff. The claims about Belle having his baby and Jeff forcing her away, which caused her to suffer from mental illness before she ultimately committed suicide didn't hold up to scrutiny. Someone had plotted everything, even before Jeff's traffic accident. But it didn't seem like the person wanted to harm him. Their main objective was to destroy his relationship with Olivia. The person went to great

Chapter 333

There was a hidden tunnel under the cherry blossom tree in the garden of the Moriarty residence. Colin jumped into it. At a certain underground base outside of the city, Colin was seen in a black outfit and a mask. Scanning his fingerprint, he entered the base. He walked down a long dimly-lit flight of stairs where the air smelled like mold and rotten corpses. He walked through a door, and the scenery behind it was completely different. There were advanced mechanical devices glowing with blue lights and robots everywhere. His identity was being verified at the door. A robotic voice said, "Verified. Welcome home, Leo."Colin quickly walked forward, but someone pressed something against his head. A woman asked, "Where did you take the old man?"The gentleness he usually showed for Olivia was gone. He swung his elbow hard toward his back with a sullen face. The woman dodged instinctively. He used the opening to grab the woman and got behind her. With one hand, he grabbed her

Olivia took it easy for two more days. As long as her phone was on, Chris' messages would keep coming in, so she turned it off. She lay in the soft and spacious bed as she looked at the horizon.Although the island was a great place, she kept thinking of Ethan's words. She wondered when he would come and take her back to the city. She was eager to go back. She had time to wait, but the same couldn't be said for Jeff. It was almost time for his operation. She called Ethan again."What's wrong?" Ethan sounded tired. "I want to go back now, Ethan.""Give me some time. I'll come get you myself." "But … I want to go back now.""I need some more time." Ethan couldn't let her know what he was doing. He could only guarantee her safety after he cleared out all the threats in the city. "But if there's something you have to do, you can tell me," Ethan said patiently. Olivia didn't want too many people to know about Jeff's condition, so she didn't tell him."It's nothing. I'm just

Chapter 335

Brent found it strange that Chris hadn't come looking for Ethan in the past few days. "Did Mr. Carlton give up?""He'll never give up until the last moment. He knows I won't budge. He's probably thinking of other ways." Ethan was sure no one could locate Olivia if he didn't go to the island. She must be safe. Brent handed him a bulletproof vest and said, "Mr. Miller, you should wear it just to be safe. The knife wound on your chest hasn't completely healed yet.""Okay."Ethan looked at the cloudy sky. The sunlight was completely blocked out. The world looked dark and gloomy. Brent, who was driving, said irritably, "It's so stuffy. It's probably going to rain soon. Rain just dampens the mood.""It's good to have some rain. It'll cleanse the filth from this city."Ethan couldn't help but call Olivia when he thought about what he was about to do. It was how things used to be. Her voice would calm him down.Olivia had just finished feeding the ducks. She had been chased around

Reality proved that a former long-distance running champion was no match for well-trained military men. In less than 50 meters, Olivia was subdued by one of Chris' men. She was pinned to the ground in a neck hold with her face against the scorching sand.Chris quickly said, "Don't hurt her. She's a guest."Olivia was captured, and there was some sand on her right cheek. She spat some sand out of her mouth before saying, "So this is how you treat guests?"Chris took out a handkerchief and cleaned her face himself. "Sorry, Olivia."Olivia was put on the helicopter just like that. Chris smiled bitterly when he met her eyes, which were filled with hatred. "Olivia, you're Chloe's only child. I want to take care of you. It's not my wish for things to turn out like this. I hope you can understand.""I can't, nor do I want to."Olivia looked outside the window. The beautiful island was getting farther and farther from her like it was all a dream.The person who had sworn to protec

After she extracted Olivia's bone marrow, the woman handed over the test tube to Chris and said, "Mr. Carlton, you can get someone to get this analyzed to see if it's compatible."Chris sighed in relief as a glimmer of hope returned to his eyes. "Thanks for your hard work."He handed the test tube to one of his bodyguards and said, "Get someone to analyze this right now. Let me know as soon as the results are out.""Yes, sir.""And for the rest of you, guard Olivia well. Don't let anything happen to her.""Understood, sir."Chris finished giving out orders and turned to look at the doctor. "Dr. Cohen, if the bone marrow is compatible, then the operation …""Don't worry, Mr. Carlton. Leave it to me. Mrs. Carlton can't afford to wait any longer. I'll perform some preoperative examination on this lady so that we can operate as soon as possible." "Alright. Thanks, Dr. Cohen.""Don't mention it. Can you get these bodyguards to leave the room for a bit?"Chris glanced at Olivia, w

The woman placed a wet cloth over Olivia's mouth to stop her from screaming. Olivia struggled hard, shaking her limbs and twisting her body. Her movements caused the chains to make rattling sounds. Olivia didn't want to die. She had a lot of things she needed to do, but her struggles were futile. Even though her wrists and ankles were scraped raw, she couldn't break free from the metal chains."Olivia, it's your biggest mistake to have ever met him."Olivia shook her head with all her might. She could only make muffled sounds with her mouth. "It won't hurt. It'll all be over soon."A tear rolled down from the corner of Olivia's eye, but the woman ignored it. Olivia could only watch as the syringe got closer and closer to her. It was almost touching her skin. Suddenly, the woman's phone rang. She wanted to ignore it, but the ringtone annoyed her. "What do you want? I'm busy," the woman said furiously. Her expression soon changed. The needle that was about to penetrate Olivi

Chapter 339

This area in the suburbs outside the city had been turned into a natural reserve some years ago. All of the inhabitants were moved a long time ago, so it became deserted over the years. Some old abandoned buildings could be seen through the rain. There were also some crows on old electric poles. Some noises could be heard amongst the thunder. It was like someone was setting off fireworks in the area. The noises were deafening. Continuous gunshots followed the noises. The sound of gunfire disrupted the peace of the woods. The underground base was thrown into chaos, and the speakers were blaring "Warning, danger!" on repeat. Some giant screens revealed the situation outside. The base had been surrounded without their knowledge. Some drones were laying waste to the cameras outside. Static began to show up on the screens.All the doctors in the labs were alerted. They came out and began pacing, saying, "What's wrong? What's happening?"Most of the people in the base were bookwo

Dr. Cohen was trying to reach the area with explosions. She didn't leave even though she received the message to evacuate. Grabbing her hand, Jennifer said, "You should leave. It's dangerous to keep going.""I can't. He came in person. I'm worried. Leo hates him and will definitely take the chance to ambush him."Her palms were sweaty, and her body was shaking. But when she rushed to the scene, she saw Ethan get shot and fall to the ground."No!" She shrieked. Jennifer grabbed her hand, wanting to take her away. "Don't go over there. We have to evacuate!"But the woman had already lost it. She ran toward Ethan's direction, paying no mind to the gunfire or the explosions. All she had her eyes on was the man on the ground. She had finally come to his side after traveling great distances. She was a clean freak, but she kneeled on the muddy ground. Her tears, mixed with the rain, fell on Ethan's face. She said in a shaky voice, "No, you can't die. I won't let you."She was abo

Chapter 341

Kelvin hung up the phone and reported to Ethan, "Mr. Miller, Toxic Hive was able to locate the island Mrs. Miller was on. Mr. Carlton thought we were the ones that gave him the information. Mrs. Miller is with him now. Should we go pick her up?" "No need. It takes time to test the bone marrow. I want to verify something."Kelvin didn't know what Ethan was trying to verify. But he guessed it was important because Ethan set Olivia aside when Olivia was usually the first thing on his mind. Ethan was in a bad state. Kelvin could see the sweat on his head, and the hands on the steering wheel were trembling. Kelvin wondered who Dr. Cohen was. She was able to get such a huge reaction out of Ethan. Was it an old flame of Ethan's?Ethan was acting too irregularly tonight. He had been driving very recklessly. Even Kelvin had to grab hold of the handle to stay in place. The car got back to the urban area after a short while. Kelvin quickly thought about the places Ethan might go, but he
