Marina looked at Jack's face. He looked exactly like Kurt, but his eyes scared her. "I'm not. I just…""Marina, you're disgusting. You forced Ethan to marry you while you were carrying Kurt's baby. And there's also all the despicable things you did to separate him from his wife."Jack struggled to get up and grabbed Marina's arm. "What are you doing?" Marina asked as she tried to break free."I want to bring you somewhere."Jack forced her into the car. Marina started to think that Jack was out of his mind. She was still on the run."Where are you taking me?"Jack fell silent and didn't speak another word to her. The car sped along the roads in the middle of the night until they arrived at a manor. There was a garden of black roses. The roses stood out in the white blanket of snow. "This is…""Kurt had planned to propose to you here. He wanted to give you and the baby a home. But he didn't get to live to see that day.Marina looked at the roses and thought about the one
Olivia wiped away her tears frantically as she repeated, "I'm so glad you're okay. I'm so glad you're okay."Jack was with her during the hardest times in her life. He knew that she was afraid of death. She had already become traumatized.The reason Jack helped Olivia so much in the beginning was because he found out that she was Ethan's wife. Her family was ruined because of Kurt's dying wish.He was just trying to atone for the pain caused by Kurt and nothing else. Then, they went through a lot of hardships together. Both of them lost all of their loved ones. So, they treated each other as family. That was why he gave up on trying to kill Wayne immediately when he saw that Olivia was also in the car. "Don't cry. You're all grown up. There's no need to act like a child." He didn't want Olivia to worry. So, he contacted her as soon as he was able to.Their intimate interaction caused Ethan to feel a little jealous. But he knew that Olivia wouldn't fall for Jack. If not,
Fabian froze as he came back to his senses. He knew Marina wouldn't do it with him willingly without reason. "Are you crazy? Do you know who she is?"Marina had been stuck in the Carlton residence for quite some time and hadn't heard anything about the outside world. "I don't care who she is. She took everything from me. My parents, my child, my lover, even him…"Even though she had just met Jack, she felt frustrated when she thought about a man who looked like Kurt cozying up to another woman.She had been the center of attention since she was young. But since Olivia showed up, everything she had crumbled away. At the same time, Olivia's life had improved immensely. Ethan was treating her way better than before. As a fellow woman, Marina couldn't help but feel jealous."Shut up. She's not who she was before. You're crazy if you think I would even try to hurt her."Marina was confused. Olivia had been looking for her parents for as long as she could remember."What's wr
Olivia tried asking Ethan about it, but he only told her parts of the story. It was understandable because of the nature of his job that he was required to keep some secrets. Mason and Linus were very important people, too. She couldn't just ask them about classified information. She was an adult and knew how to respect boundaries. The reason she wanted to get to the bottom of it was to prepare for the future. She was a member of the Heath family, after all. She wanted to be able to prevent getting dragged into troublesome matters.Fabian and the Kingston family should be able to dig something up. Fabian was able to beat the competition and surprise Otto. He should be quite capable. Olivia made a deal with Fabian with Marina as the prize. Fabian would be more than happy to do her bidding.She was able to keep Marina under control with the microchip. It would also prevent Marina from acting out again. That killed two birds with one stone. She was finally able to relax
That night, the three of them spent a lot of time drinking. Ethan got drunk with the two of them. Olivia held his hand with her left hand and held Jack's hand with her right. In her drunken state, she thought of them as her brothers."Ethan, Jack, we'll be siblings for life! We'll always be together…"Ethan quickly covered her mouth before she could say anything more. After a night of discussion, Ethan and Jack managed to set their differences aside. Jack understood that he was the man that Kurt was willing to die for. Kurt would definitely not approve of his actions if he had killed Ethan. But Jack had been consumed by hatred, and he blamed Ethan for Kurt's death because he couldn't accept the fact that Kurt was gone.The three of them went back to Olivia's villa. Jack had his own room in the villa. Ethan carried Olivia back to her room. Although Jack was drunk, he was still conscious. "Treat her right. She really loves you a lot."Ethan stopped in his tracks. "If I
Olivia messed around for the whole night. Then, she slept until noon.Ethan looked at the calls she was getting on her phone. Then, he turned it off.When Olivia woke up, he had already prepared lunch. It was some chicken soup and bread. He stood next to the stairs with a spoon in his hand. He said sternly, "No more drinking outside from now on."Olivia didn't remember anything that happened the night before. She just felt sore all over. It wasn't the type of pain she felt after a rough night of passion with Ethan. It felt like she fell over. "By the way… I have some bruises on my arms and legs. Did you hit me?"Ethan rubbed his temples. He handed her the phone. "See for yourself."He thought she was very adorable last night, so he filmed it all.After the "Knights of the Round Table" act, Olivia wrapped some sheets around her and leaped onto the table. She yelled, "Men, our enemies are upon us. Will you follow my lead and crush them with me?"She didn't get a reply, so
Olivia and Ethan flew to the island in the neighboring country. She hid her children well to prevent her enemies from finding them.The island was in an excellent geological location. It had flight routes to a lot of different places.That night, the two of them sipped on some champagne on the beach. They listened to the sound of the waves crashing into the rocks. "Wayne didn't give up. He offered an even more lucrative deal."Ethan's face was hidden by the shadows, and Olivia couldn't see his emotions. She frowned. "What did Grandpa say?"Even though she hadn't been with Mason or Linus for that long, both of them treated her really well. Olivia felt like Mason would never sell her out for profit, but one could never be too sure."Don't worry. Mr. Heath didn't agree to it. He turned it down immediately. It's a pity we didn't get to see that in person."Ethan was a little happy when he said that. After all, he had been competing against Wayne most of his life. Mason helped h
The plane landed. Ethan arrived at Angus after a while.It was the middle of autumn. The town was at the base of a mountain and was covered in brown leaves. It looked beautiful when the wind blew them around.The people in the town were happy. They had smiles on their faces. It was a very happy place.There was a very famous private school in town. It had extremely stringent admission criteria. The students would receive their education in a closed-off environment. The tuition fees were very expensive. Even the education style was very special. The students' identities were also kept secret. A lot of students came from prominent backgrounds. So, no one knew anyone else's identity. It was also very hard to graduate from this school. The students who graduated from the school were sure to make a name for themselves. The school was so secretive that Ethan didn't know about it for quite some time. He looked at his watch. The kids were still in school.He didn't even i
