Chapter 1468
The snow didn't seem like it was going to let up anytime soon. It even started snowing heavier at midnight. The temperature quickly started dropping. Millie's mink coat was already covered in snowflakes. It had never crossed her mind that one day, she would be kneeling at a place like this because of Tyrell.They kneeled for around two hours before she fainted. A guard came over and helped her into the car. Alfred also told them that everyone in the house was asleep and he wouldn't be letting them in.Tyrell could only bring his wife and son back home with a heavy heart. Mason's silence made it clear that there was no room for negotiations. Ethan looked on coldly as Tyrell got into his car. He said, "Brent, the glory days of the Monroe family are over. Go dig up some dirt on them.""Yes, Mr. Miller."Just because Tyrell was a retired government official didn't mean he didn't have any skeletons in his closet. He was just lucky that he didn't experience too many setbacks in his
Chapter 1469
Luckily, it wasn't the stench of a rotting corpse. It was just the smell of stale, humid air and rotten food.A woman who was extremely frail and unnaturally pale was locked down here with all four of her limbs chained. She sat on the bed, hugging her knees with a blank expression."Stacy!" Felix quickly wheeled himself next to the bed. Even Olivia, who was a seasoned veteran, felt emotional when she saw the state Stacy was in.Neal was such a bastard. He ripped a couple apart, didn't cherish the woman he snatched away, and even abused her so much.It was clear that Stacy had been imprisoned in the basement for quite some time. She was also in shock. She looked at the people who had just entered the room blankly without any reactions. Tears welled up in Olivia's eyes. She asked someone to get a towel to cover up Stacy's nearly naked body.Felix felt terrible. He didn't shy away from her. Instead, he hugged her tightly and comforted her repeatedly. "Don't worry, Stacy. I'm he

Olivia spaced out as she sat in the corridor. Why did this gathering have to happen at this very point in time?The ringing of bells sounded next to her. Willow had come to check on her. The child noticed that Olivia had a heavy expression on her face, so she rubbed her face against Olivia's hands.Willow lived in the village for a long time, and she was very close with all sorts of animals. She would sometimes act like one.Olivia ruffled her hair with a tender expression."Why aren't you playing with your brothers and sister?"Willow shook her head and made a hand sign. She was worried about Olivia. It was probably because she had heard a little of what the adults were talking about and thought Olivia was feeling sad for someone else. Willow was a very considerate child. She might not be able to speak, but she had a big heart.Olivia lifted her into her arms. "I'm fine. It's just that the fates of others are already determined. I can't save everyone. So, I'm trying my best

There weren't any complicated designs on the necklace, just a very live-like fish.Olivia raised her head to kiss Ethan's cheek. "I love it. Thanks."Time was running short. She quickly got out of bed and packed her stuff. Before leaving, she went to take a look at the kids.Ethan wanted to send her off, but she turned him down. She went to the harbor alone. She had to reach a transfer station before getting on a direct flight to the island. Olivia changed her appearance on the boat. She took a deep breath and filled her lungs with the cold winter air. She reached her destination after some time. To her surprise, Undecim was already waiting for her there. Olivia smiled when she saw that Undecim was unscathed. "Were you waiting for me?""Of course. Only three S-ranked members are coming this time.""Who else?""You'll know when we get there."Olivia realized that Undecim seemed to be very familiar with the Black Ravens while they were talking. She couldn't help but try to a

Olivia looked at Wayne cautiously as she moved away. A familiar voice said, "Septim, you won't be able to escape."It was Undecim! He was sitting on a beach chair with his legs crossed. His demeanor suddenly changed. Olivia could guess his identity. "You're the boss of the Black Ravens.""That's right. As you had wished, we met at last!"Olivia glared at him. "You betrayed me!""Septim, there's something I tell everyone that joins the Black Ravens. There are no friends in the organization. There are only transactions."She didn't join the organization to make friends. She only ever wanted to get close to the boss of the organization. Never did it cross her mind that the boss was also an S-ranked assassin. He even went out on missions with him several times. "The Black Ravens are a group of mercenaries that accept all sorts of missions. Someone asked for you, and that's the mission this time."Undecim said nonchalantly, "Don't blame me. This transaction was too good not to

Olivia frowned as her expression grew cold. "Are you threatening me?""No. I'm just stating a fact. I went from a nobody that anyone could bully to the position I'm in today. Do you know how much I sacrificed?"I would already be dead if I was a soft person. So, you better listen when I'm talking to you calmly. Or else, I can't guarantee I won't do something extreme."Her kids were her only weakness. She raised her hand and slapped Wayne. "I'll kill you if you dare lay a hand on my kids."Wayne grabbed her wrist tightly. "Dr. Ophelia, I just love this viciousness of yours."Then, he tore off Olivia's mask. "I prefer looking at this face of yours."It was a perfect face, a flawless work of art. Wayne didn't understand how her abdomen could be so flat without any flab even though she had given birth to four children. Even her figure looked like that of a youthful woman. How did she pull it off?"You enjoy taking another man's sloppy seconds so much? You don't think I'm no lo

Compared to Ethan, Wayne was way more of a ruffian. He didn't adhere to rhyme or reason and only did things based on his mood.A person like him was way more dangerous because he couldn't be tied down by morals or reason.He took Olivia to the bedroom. "You should take a shower. There are clothes for you in the room."Although Wayne had feelings for Olivia, he wasn't in a rush to do anything. Tricking her to get her to the island was already unacceptable for her. He wasn't about to do anything more to her for the time being. Olivia scanned her surroundings. There were some windows and a balcony, but guards stood at their posts below every possible escape route. Even if she managed to knock out the guard and get to the shore, she wouldn't be able to last too long in the ocean without a mode of transportation.Wayne had put a lot of effort into crafting this cage for her. Olivia locked the door and went to the bathtub. She started to think about Stacy, whom she saw in the

Naturally, Ethan didn't believe it was true. It was too much of a coincidence. He calmed himself down. "That's impossible!"Tears welled up in Kelvin's eyes. "I wish it was impossible as well. You were uneasy when Mrs. Miller left and had some men tail her. "They saw her getting on that helicopter. People from a passing ship recorded footage of the helicopter exploding."As he was talking, Kelvin played the video of the explosion on his phone. No one was seen getting out of the helicopter from the explosion to the crash. Everything happened too suddenly. "I don't believe she's dead. Go look into it. Send people to check."Ethan wanted to call Olivia's phone, but his fingers began to shake uncontrollably. He only managed to get his phone out after several tries. But then, he dropped it on the floor. Kelvin quickly helped him pick it up and handed it to him. "Here you go, Mr. Miller."Ethan reached out with shaking hands and slowly dialed the number he had memorized.
