Chapter 1385
Olivia kept a straight face and didn't respond to Wayne's probing. Instead, she reminded him, "Mr. Maxwell, this is Aldenvine."Her expression was calm. She had cried a little when she was visiting Jeff's grave. Her eyes and nose were slightly reddened. Her eyes were also moist from the crying.She was like a cute little bunny.But Wayne knew full well that the woman standing before him wasn't a harmless little bunny. She was the S-ranked assassin, Septem. Before he arrived in Arlandia, he had already looked through all the intel regarding Olivia. Although she was an assassin, she never killed innocent people. All the missions she took were of targets who were completely evil—bullies that preyed on the weak. Olivia still had kindness in her heart. Or else, she could've killed him at any time while she was with him.Wayne smelled Olivia's scent. "Why are you afraid, Ms. Fordham? I was just saying hello."Then, he took a couple of steps back. "Let's go. I'll escort Ms. F

"Sure thing, Mr. Maxwell."Ike shot a glance at Olivia with a complicated expression.Wayne let go of Olivia. "If you please, Dr. Ophelia."Olivia looked at the bodyguarding surrounding them. She had no chance of escaping. Wayne didn't give her an option. She was forced into the car. He also got in and sat beside her. Seeing her nervous expression, Wayne chuckled. "What? Are you afraid of me?"Olivia leaned on the door as much as possible as she tried to distance herself from him. But the car was only so big, there was nowhere for her to hide.She only brought her keys up the hill because her pockets were small. Her phone was in her car. She didn't expect to meet Wayne, after all.Olivia reassured herself. She was Mason's granddaughter, so Wayne wouldn't dare to do anything to her while they were in Aldenvine.Even though that was what she thought, she couldn't help but feel a little scared. She sat up straight and looked straight ahead."Of course that's not the case."
Chapter 1387
The three people in the car were shocked by this sudden development. Olivia would already be dead if the windows weren't bulletproof. "Watch out!"That bullet was an armor-piercing round. It wasn't enough to punch through the window, but it was embedded into it. Cracked appeared all around the bullet. Then, a second bullet and a third one followed. The glass finally broke with a loud crash. Wayne reacted quickly. When the first shot was fired, he immediately pulled Olivia down to the floor of the car and pressed against her. The gunshots didn't stop coming. They broke through the left window and even shot through the one on the right. Even the doors were being riddled with bullets. It was total chaos. Ike steadied the car. "Be careful, Mr. Maxwell!" Wayne turned his gaze to look at Olivia, who was under him. He thought a woman would be nervous in such a situation.Unexpectedly, she looked angry. She yelled, "I told you I didn't want to get in your car!"Olivia was in
Chapter 1388
Olivia had a bad feeling when the gunshots stopped. The enemy was so determined. Surely, they knew the car had bulletproof windows. She thought about what she would do if she were in the enemy's shoes. Olivia immediately understood when she looked at the gaping hole that used to be the window. "Wayne, you have to cover up the window," Olivia reminded him with a frown."Don't worry. My men aren't worthless. If he wanted to go for a frontal assault, there shouldn't be any snipers. He only has a window of several seconds if he wants to get in close and personal."Wayne had a triumphant smile on his face as he raised his head to look at the two bulletproof windows that were shattered. "He already missed his chance to do that."The cars of Wayne's bodyguards had already blocked off both sides of Wayne's car before the enemy could throw any explosives into his car.As expected, there wasn't any more gunfire. Olivia looked at Wayne, who was still on top of her. Then, she kicked

Jack had never felt so conflicted before. This was his best chance of killing Wayne. But if he threw the grenade, Olivia would die as well.The memories of his time with Olivia flashed in his mind. She really thought of him as a brother. While he hesitated, Wayne's bodyguards were able to catch up and line up a shot at him.Olivia could only watch as the bullet flew toward Jack.She screamed, "No!"But there was nothing she could've done as Jack got shot and fell over. Only the driver was left speeding away.The cold wind blew toward Olivia as tears streamed down her face. How could this happen?If she weren't in the car, Jack would've killed Wayne. He wouldn't have hesitated and gotten himself killed. A few years ago, when she mentioned that she wanted to join the Black Ravens, Jack told her, "The biggest mistake an assassin can make is to be emotional. Only death awaits an assassin who lets his emotion dictate his actions."Even so, he still hesitated when he saw her.W

Ike stepped on the gas and shook Ethan's car off. Olivia didn't know that Ethan had seen Wayne hold her in his arms. She broke free from his grasp and pushed him away. "Have some respect for yourself, Wayne Maxwell."Wayne grabbed her wrist. "Dr. Ophelia, you need to understand one thing. You were the one that came on to me before. Now, you want me to hold back? Too late!"The wind blew at Olivia's hair. Her dark, round eyes were still teary. She looked very endearing. Wayne slowly reached out to caress her face. "Let her go!" Ethan stared right at him."Ethan!"Wayne said annoyedly, "Shake him off!"Ethan also ordered, "Catch up to them!"It was as if Jack's appearance was just an inconsequential encounter. Both Ethan and Wayne had their attention on Olivia at the moment.Ike and Brent were stepping on the gas as hard as they could. Both cars were speeding around in a high-speed case until they finally arrived outside the gates of the Heath Residence.Linus was at the entr

Olivia shook her head. "He wouldn't dare to do anything while we're in Aldenvine, but…"Olivia recalled how tolerant Wayne was toward her. In the past, he would've killed her for doing all those things to him.She slapped him and scratched him. He even found out that the assassin after his life was related to her, but he acted like nothing happened. It was too weird. That was very unlike Wayne to do so. Olivia bit her lip and said awkwardly, "I think he's in love with me."In Raka, Wayne had already developed a small liking for her. However, it was during their car ride that she distinctly felt his affection deepen.A man would only put up with a woman if he was interested in her. It was obvious that Wayne was being a little too tolerant. Ethan felt that a long time ago. If Wayne didn't have feelings for Olivia, he wouldn't wait until the ring was no longer in Olivia's possession before detonating it.Olivia noticed that Ethan had a glum expression on his face. She took his

When they got back to her room, Olivia was still thinking about Jack. But Ethan was clearly thinking about something else. "Is there no news about Jack yet?"Ethan snapped back to his senses. "What did you say?"Olivia held his hand and declared, "I don't like Wayne, not even a little."Looking at Olivia's determined gaze, Ethan sighed. "I know. I'm just…"Ethan was just insecure. Since the day he met Olivia, he knew that she was a great and talented woman.She would be the center of attention no matter where she went. In the past, he tried to hide her at home so no one could see her. He made her light grow dim when he decided to make her his personal property. No one else saw how special she was after that. He was the one who lost her. When she returned to his world again, she began to shine even brighter than before, but their relationship could never go back to what it used to be.Olivia knew that Ethan was a very possessive man. So, she tried to explain further. "I we
