Chapter 1190
Krystal's checkup report quickly made it into Yale's hands.Yale's assistant reminded him, "Mr. Kingston, the doctor said that Ms. Heath has a high chance of getting pregnant if she tries in these three days.""Alright." Yale rubbed between his eyebrows.He didn't like Krystal at all. He not only didn't like her, but Krystal was also the type he hated the most.But he didn't have any better ideas to gain Mason's trust.Krystal was Mason's only daughter, and he had pampered her since she was young. If Krystal had a child, even if Mason didn't like Yale, he'd still have to agree to this marriage.Linus held a powerful force, but he usually wouldn't be in Aldenvine. Mason was getting old, and with the two consecutive assassination attempts, he urgently wanted to win over someone close to him.It wasn't a bad thing for Olivia's identity to be exposed. It proved that she still couldn't let Ethan go. Hence, it would cut off all possibilities of Krystal getting married to Ethan.N

Tatiana was dumbfounded. "What? She's staying in the Heath residence long-term?""Yes. I have something to attend to, so I'm leaving now."Tatiana didn't dare to question Mason either, so she could only take it one step at a time. In the next two days, whenever she met Olivia, she didn't dare to go overboard, either.She maintained peace on the surface.But Olivia and Mason were getting even closer to each other!Other than sleeping, they were together all day. On many occasions, when Tatiana went into the room, she would see Mason holding Olivia's hand and smiling gently.Tatiana even suspected Olivia's relationship with Mason. The results of the investigation she asked someone to carry out was the same as Mason's.Jeff couldn't possibly be Mason's son. The Fordhams had been in Aldenvine for many years, and the Heath family only came to Aldenvine to broaden their horizons later on.The two families couldn't have been in contact.Was it true that Mason was just appreciating Ol
Chapter 1192
As if she had sunken into the mud, Krystal willingly fell into degradation. She never once considered the future. She only knew that she was getting more and more dependent on Yale.Meanwhile, the renovation work at the Heath residence was already underway. After making some tea for Mason, Olivia entered his study.When Olivia saw Mason frowning deeply, she walked over to him and said in a gentle voice, "Grandpa, it's getting late. You should rest."A thick stack of documents in red was placed in front of Mason. He looked quite troubled."Child, it's not that I refuse to sleep. I simply cannot fall asleep.""Did something serious happen?" Olivia asked."Word of my injury still got out. In recent days, the countries near Arlandia are getting restless again. "Beloria has detained more than 50 fishermen from our country at Forge Isle."In the western part of the country, someone caused trouble at the border, and there's the eastern part and the north-western part too …"Mason

In the next few days, Linus wasn't the only one Olivia didn't get to see. Even Ethan was busy at work.In the past, Ethan would send her messages every day, but now, he would only send her a "Are you asleep?" in the middle of the night.Most of the time, Olivia only saw the messages in the morning. She would send a reply, but she had no idea when he would have the time to respond.Olivia had more free time now. The designers of the Heath family kept coming and going. Today, a designer came to tailor clothes for her. A jewelry designer would be paying a visit the next day.Other than the tailor-made stuff, haute couture and ready-made jewelry were delivered to the house every day.As Linus had said, he would make it up to her. Other than familial love, he was also compensating her via material means.As Tatiana watched the piles of clothes getting carried into Olivia's room, she began to panic again.After all, Mason had always been a frugal man. He would never allow people to

Tatiana joyously called Krystal. "Krystal, here's some good news for you. Your dad asked you to come home for dinner tomorrow. "You have to grab the chance by then! Don't provoke your dad anymore."Krystal touched her flat belly. Three days ago, she found out that she was pregnant.At that moment, a sweet expression filled her face as she smiled faintly. "Got it, Mom. I have a surprise for you guys, too.""A surprise? What surprise did you prepare this time?"Krystal wished that she could tell Tatiana the good news right now. But her sense of reason told her that the announcement of her breaking news had to be reserved for dinner tomorrow."You'll find out tomorrow! Mom, I'm sure you'll be happy about it."Tatiana was a little suspicious. But Krystal truly had been quite well-behaved lately, and she didn't seem to be causing trouble. Perhaps she truly had thought things through.Tatiana left a few reminders before ending the call.Krystal checked the time. Yale still ha

Olivia had just ended her video call with Zack when Ethan's call came in.Olivia hadn't contacted Ethan in weeks, but now, she could hear his voice. "Liv."He seemed to be in a spacious area, and she could hear the cold wind howling."I'm here." Olivia wanted to ask where he was, but she thought that he might be carrying out some top-secret military mission, so she didn't ask."Did you miss me?" Ethan's voice was a little hoarse. He must be somewhere extremely cold.Olivia had been there a few times before. Even a breath of the freezing air threatened to blow up her lungs."It's not that bad.""You're not adorable at all, Liv. Unlike you, I missed you a lot."His hoarse voice had given him some extra manly charm instead. Olivia felt her heart shivering in a good way.In the past, she would think of Ethan every waking hour if she couldn't see him. But now, she wouldn't do that. She had a lot of her own business to attend to.Ethan used to be like indispensable air and water to

Ethan hurried back. Finally, at noon the next day, he arrived in Aldenvine.He didn't even bother to go home and wash up. Instead, he headed toward the Heath residence right away. With the cold and bloody smell surrounding him, he appeared in Mason's study.Olivia was making tea, whereas Mason was reading a book.Ethan strode in. When his gaze fell upon Olivia, some tenderness appeared in his cold eyes."Mr. Heath, it's fortunate that your orders were not disgraced. The mission was accomplished."Mason closed his book. He had already received a detailed report last night. He gave Ethan a look of approval. "You've done well. It's getting late, so feel free to stay behind for dinner."Perhaps because Olivia was around, he didn't talk too much about work.If it were before, Ethan would decline without hesitation. If he stayed for dinner, Krystal would most probably be attending as well. But things were very different. Olivia was here, so he was elated."Pardon my intrusion, then

Mason had blocked off every path!Even Olivia's fingers were already on Ethan's zipper. She met Ethan's complaining gaze. "Um… I'll be heading there for now."Ethan grabbed her in a hug. "How are you going to make it up to me?""Just hang in there. We'll find another chance.""Don't you miss me at all? Not even one bit?"She didn't have such high demands in this aspect. After he left, she indeed hadn't missed him one bit. But as soon as he kissed her just now, she felt like she was a little affected.Olivia coughed lightly. "Well, a little."She took the initiative to plant a kiss on his cheek. "Be good. Go home for a shower.""I'll come over at night."Olivia bit her lip. "Sure."After she smoothed out her clothes, she left under Ethan's pining gaze.As expected, the maid was dutifully waiting at the door. Olivia returned to Mason's side.Mason glanced at Olivia's slightly welling lips. Even Olivia's ears had reddened.She had given birth to a few children already, but
