Not only Erina's looks but even her personality was the opposite of Connor's.The little girl's eyes were filled with enmity toward Olivia. She was young, but she knew everything.Mina hastily said, "I'm so sorry, Ms. Fordham. Erina is shy, so she doesn't like strangers getting close to her."Olivia had already retracted her hand. She wouldn't blame the child for her hate toward Olivia. But since Erina hated her, she wouldn't try to please Erina, either.Their relationship was quite odd. Connor was Marina's child as well, but Olivia felt a sense of familiarity when she first met him."It's okay, she's just a child. But what about you?"Olivia looked at Mina's leg. "Is your leg okay?"Back on the ship, Jack had shot Mina.Mina smiled. "Thank you for your concern, Ms. Fordham. I wasn't seriously hurt. I've already rested and recuperated for a few months."Even though the injured nerves need time to heal, it won't affect how I take care of the children."By the looks of it, Jack

It was Olivia's turn to be puzzled now. She wondered what was going on with the child.When she first met him, he didn't even know how to walk. But he would tug at her clothes and call her "Mommy"."Are you serious? He never called anyone that before?""I'm sure of it. I am always around him, after all. Other than his mumbles, he never called anyone 'Mommy'. He may be young, but he's very much like Mr. Miller."Ever since he learned how to walk, he rarely lets anyone carry him. That's why I was surprised to see him getting so close to you, Ms. Fordham. He even calls you 'Mommy'."Olivia felt a little awkward when she heard that. She could only find an excuse. "It was probably when we stayed on the island. I always took care of him back then, so maybe he learned to depend on me.""That makes sense. Speaking of which, you were so brave that night, Ms. Fordham. The kidnappers were armed, but you ran after them anyway."If it weren't for you, Master Connor wouldn't have made it back

Chapter 384

Chris was at the Carlton residence. He was already grieving, but now, even his daughter's life was in danger. He looked very worn out.Even Ethan pitied Chris when he saw the latter like this. "Mr. Carlton, don't worry too much. Marina must still be alive. If not, they wouldn't have gone through the trouble to take her away."Chris sighed. "Even if she's still alive, she won't be alright …"Otto slammed his hands on the table. "Who are those people? How dare they attack my granddaughter in broad daylight?"After all, he loved his granddaughter the most since she was young. He would risk his life to fight anyone who dared to hurt her."The current evidence points to the Toxic Hive."Otto's expression shifted. "That's impossible! It couldn't have been the Toxic Hive!"Ethan had a feeling that Otto was overreacting. He turned to look at Otto, a deep look flashing across his dark eyes. "Why couldn't it have been the Toxic Hive?"Otto hastily hid his emotions. "You have been crackin

Chris contacted Toxic Hive again. He thought that they would reject communication after Marina's incident. Unexpectedly, they told him to go to the agreed place on time.He didn't know what Toxic Hive was thinking. Since they were bold enough to say that, he would be brave enough to meet them as well.After planning their strategy, Ethan had to go back and get ready. When he left, he noticed that Otto was in a daze. Otto seemed to be very out of it.After leaving the Carlton residence, Ethan gave an order. "Investigate what Mr. Carlton Senior has been doing and the people he met."Brent knew what he meant right away. "Mr. Miller, are you suspecting Mr. Carlton Senior?""If no one is hiding the Toxic Hive, we would've found traces of them by now. Few people in Aldenvine can do that. There was something off about Mr. Carlton Senior today."Brent frowned, saying, "With a status like that, Mr. Carlton Senior won't get involved with those scum, will he?""Do you know why scammers who

The light disappeared from Olivia's eyes. Putting down the towel, she said coldly, "Go ahead and bathe him. I'll go change my clothes."With that, she strode out of the room without waiting for Ethan's reaction.She couldn't bring herself to hurt a child, but she couldn't bear to see Ethan pampering Connor either.She couldn't help but wonder what would happen if her child were still alive. She wondered if things would've turned out differently by now.But in reality, it wouldn't change much. Bringing him into this world would only endanger him.After all, she couldn't even ensure her safety.Ethan quickly came in after her. Olivia was changing her clothes, so a large area of her fair skin entered his line of sight.Olivia cried out, and Ethan quickly turned around.Soon, he realized something. They had done even the most intimate of acts, but they reacted as if they were strangers.Even his instincts were telling him that they were getting further away. He didn't even realize

Olivia didn't sleep a wink at all. She grabbed her phone as soon as her phone screen lit up in the darkness.It was a text from Avery. "Are you asleep yet?"She got out of bed. Since she didn't want to wake the child, she headed to the washroom to call Avery.Avery's gentle voice rang into her ear. "Hello. It's late, and you weren't asleep?""Yeah. Did you find any leads?""Yes. There are two things I wanna tell you. First, Mr. Carlton and Ms. Rosa are going to meet up soon. Second, I've found something about the person you wanted me to look into."Olivia's eyes lit up. She didn't hold high hopes of finding anything about that person, but Avery was surprisingly reliable."Who is that?" she asked."The members of Toxic Hive use fake names, so knowing her name is pointless. Her code name is Begonia. I managed to track her current whereabouts. Would you like to meet up with her before she moves elsewhere?"Avery reported his findings with equanimity, but he managed to make her ju

Olivia knew that Avery was telling the truth. The warmth was evident in his gaze, but it was free from sensual emotions.She blinked her eyes, wondering if that was how it felt like to have an older brother.She smiled. "It's alright. I'm not as lucky as you are to have so many siblings. I'm the only child in my family."It pained Avery to see the loneliness in her eyes. He took a document out of his bag. "Here's Begonia's information. Take a look at it."She was impressed that he could dig out Begonia's information when she had only brought it up briefly. Not even Ethan could get such information in his hands!However, the woman on the document was wearing a mask. Olivia couldn't see her face.Avery explained, "Concealing their identity has always been a rule in Toxic Hive. Even those people who work together in the same space don't reveal their faces to each other.""I see."Aside from Begonia's face, he had detailed information, such as her position in Toxic Hive.Instead

Olivia felt it would be unbecoming of her to ask further questions, so she stopped.She and Avery were mere acquaintances. She was already grateful to him for being willing to tell her that much.Their car stopped in an alley that was free from surveillance cameras. There was a black SUV parked at the same place."We gotta change cars.""Okay." Olivia got out of the car only to realize that the SUV had high performance. Even its windows were bulletproof.They were heading to the suburbs. Noticing that Olivia was slightly nervous, Avery took two bottles of yogurt drinks out from a small refrigerator. "Want some?"She was surprised when she saw him drinking it with a casual expression. It was strawberry-flavored."T-Thanks."He chuckled. "Frankly speaking, my family loves yogurt drinks, especially strawberry-flavored ones.""It is tasty." Olivia understood that he was trying to make her relax after noticing that she was nervous.The sourness and sweetness melted in her mouth, r

Under Marina's anxious gaze, the lady removed Marina's oxygen mask. "Just what do you want?" asked Marina weakly. Her question was free from her usual supercilious tone."What do I want?" The lady chuckled softly. Her face was no less different from what Marina remembered.Time, which could be relentless, chose to be kind to this lady whose face was free from wrinkles.The lady was gentle and warm in the past. She had always looked at Marina with a warm gaze, giving Marina a wholesome childhood.Hence, Marina treasured this lady the most in her life. This lady was her mother, and no one could replace her.However, everything changed after the car accident happened.

Chapter 391

The castle-like mansion was massive and empty, so empty that one could hear his footsteps echoing against the walls.It was late at night. There were a few ancient wall lamps lit up, barely lighting up the darkness.A piano sound broke the silence, filling the mansion. It was the famous song "The Dream Wedding".Listening to the song in an eerie castle in the middle of the night was scary. It would've been a relaxing song if it was played in any other venues.Accompanied by the song, Chris ascended the stairs.He found it odd to meet up with the mysterious leader of Toxic Hive this way.Ethan, who was forced to stay in the yard, hid under the roof. He knew where the nearby surveillance cameras were.Hacking a surveillance camera was easy for him. It took him a few minutes to dysfunction them. The only scene that was shown on the surveillance footage should be the original scene.Ethan, who had observed the castle's structure, sneaked into the first floor through a pipeline.
