Chapter 1416
This vision had been in Louis' head for decades. Olivia didn't think she would be able to change his mind so easily. The truth was that everyone had their own dreams and their ways of life. She wasn't a judge. So, she didn't have the right to decide if other people were making the right decisions.Besides, she was the one who betrayed Louis' trust and ran out on him first. She didn't dare to anger him because he was too big of a threat.She could only go along with him and improvise. Louis was still very hopeful of her future. So, she could only soften her attitude. "I know you mean well, Mr. Rivera. But your vision isn't so easy to realize.""Of course, I know that. Refining this cyborg technology would take decades. Creating a new world order would take hundreds of years. "I don't have that long to live, but you're different. You've already herb-imbued. You've succeeded! You can realize my dream. "If I were to die, you have to continue my experiments. You need a lot of t
Chapter 1417
Louis was an unfeeling man with lots of rules. Other than his assistant, almost no one could roam freely in his lab. So, Olivia guessed that the man was the herb-imbued person who underwent his procedure. That silhouette was very familiar to her. It was a person who had helped her in the past. She had not met him in years. He turned around, and a frail but handsome face appeared before Olivia.Avery also didn't expect to meet Olivia again under these circumstances. He was sad for quite some time when he received news that Olivia was dead. He had only recently heard that Olivia was still alive, but he hadn't expected to meet her again so soon."Why are you here, Olivia?""It's been a long time, Mr. Fordham."Olivia could guess why he was there. He had a kidney condition. She was prepared to give him her kidney eight years ago.Back then, Ethan stopped the surgery. She had heard news about him over the years. Ethan said Avery had completed the kidney transplant. Something
Chapter 1418
Avery told Olivia all he had been through all these years. Back then, his kidney condition was already very serious, but he was unable to find a suitable donor. He was on the brink of death a few times. Then, he chanced upon a suitable kidney and had the transplant. But it didn't last. His body started to reject the kidney. His life hadn't been easy. He had been hanging by a thread and had no option but to seek out Louis. His relationship with Louis was purely transactional. He wasn't like Olivia, who was Louis' student. "Mr. Fordham, can I take your pulse real quick?""Sure, go ahead."Avery looked at Olivia's steadfast gaze. She was no longer the sickly young woman of the past. She had already grown into a magnificent person.She must be very skilled to earn Louis' approval. He thought about how desperate she was back then. She told him she didn't have a future anymore and wanted to give him her kidney.Avery asked her before what she wanted to do if she survived.
Chapter 1419
Complicated feelings bubbled up within Olivia when she looked at Avery. She felt close to him since the first time they met.Back then, she had been ravaged by her illness, but she got better. Avery was still struggling with his illness. Olivia felt an inexplicable sadness for him.His illness can't be cured with surgery. He also needed a new kidney. He had done surgery before, but the effects were underwhelming.Since even Olivia couldn't cure him, Louis was his only hope. Avery was calm. He had already come to terms with his situation."I hope so.""Mr. Fordham, do you have a phone on you? I left in a hurry and didn't bring my phone. I want to call my family."Avery handed her his phone. "Here.""Thanks."Meanwhile, Ethan had just realized that Olivia had been taken by Louis. He was looking everywhere for leads on him. Then, his phone rang. He was stunned when he looked at the caller ID. It was a call from Avery.The two of them barely knew each other and hadn't been i
Chapter 1420
After hanging up, Olivia looked dejected. She didn't know when she would be able to go back to her children.She handed the phone back to Avery. "Thanks, Mr. Fordham."Avery saw the sadness in Olivia's eyes. "Olivia, you…"He was about to ask a question when Louis yelled excitedly, "Perfect! This is perfection!"There was a thick stack that was Olivia's physical examination report. "You've reached the optimal state. It has only been three years. You've recovered better than I expected. You've completely acclimated to all the herbs in your system."All of the herbs had different effects. A lot of the test subjects weren't able to last a week while consuming herbs during their pregnancy.Olivia didn't leave in good condition back then. At the moment, her body had already built up a resistance against most of the herbs. Olivia knew it was all because of the medicinal spring and Wendy. After the treatment and years of acclimation, she had become a true herb-imbued person."E

Life was just like that. One could never get everything they wanted.The warm sea wind blew, and Avery coughed a few times. "Mr. Fordham, what agreement did you have with Mr. Rivera?" Olivia didn't want to talk about her problems anymore. So, she changed the subject."He agreed to treat me when I offered him research funds and the rights to some of my medical products. "As you know, research takes a lot of money. He's a good researcher, but he's no businessman.""That's true.""The stuff he gave Toxic Hive allowed them to make a name for themselves. He would make a fortune if he applied for patents and released his products to the market. "What about you? What are you going to do?""Drag it out for as long as possible. I don't want to hurt Mr. Rivera's feelings, but I don't want to become a cyborg either.""Have you gotten back with Ethan? I heard that you two had a very serious falling out back then."Olivia smiled bitterly. "That's true. It's just a relationship I can'
Chapter 1422
Olivia acted as Louis' assistant like before. She had been good at doing these things in the past. She familiarized herself with the tasks very quickly. Louis was very satisfied with her work."You're so quick-witted, unlike the other fools."Olivia looked at the mechanical arms in a glass display case. They were more advanced than the limbs she installed for Marina. Louis was so crazy that he even made the skin on these arms perfect. They were exactly the same as human skin and even looked smoother than most people's skin.Louis was happy to see that she was staring at a mechanical arm. "Look, this is the newly upgraded version. You can barely tell it's a mechanical arm from the outside. The fingers are even more nimble than a human's. "Don't worry, Elise. I'll use all the best parts for you."The mention of the modification made her heart sink. "Mr. Rivera, it's not that I don't trust you. I just want to wait for a little while longer. It would cause you trouble if the pr
Chapter 1423
Back then, after Olivia's incident, Ethan broke his own sister's limbs to avenge Olivia. He wanted to keep Leia trapped for life.After all, a person who had lost all four limbs wouldn't be able to cause trouble.But Ethan seemed to have underestimated Leia's determination. She had experienced inhumane torture since she was young, so she was mentally far stronger than the common person.She had only lost her limbs, so of course, she wouldn't give up.Ethan and Janice thought that Leia would turn over a new leaf, but they were unaware that she was gathering strength as she awaited the right time.Ethan had been too busy in the past few years, and Leia was overseas. So, if Janice had hidden and defended Leia on purpose, Ethan wouldn't have noticed it.When Olivia saw Leia, she subconsciously touched her wrist.Back then, Ethan had injured her wrist because of Leia. Now, Olivia felt as if her wrist was still hurting even though her injuries had healed, and there weren't even any
