Olivia asked the others to leave before starting the conversation. "Mr. Sean, you knew that Mr. Avery assigned me to be your doctor, but there's one thing that we kept away from you."Sean noticed something was off, and his expression turned serious. "What is it?""Many things have happened to your family in the past few years. "He thinks that this couldn't be a coincidence, that someone was behind this. So, I took this opportunity to look into the truth."As the bright man he was, he understood what she meant right away.His hands gripped the armrest as he stared at Olivia. His eyes were cold. "You mean the car accident I was involved in was a setup?""Yes, it's not only that. Even your relationship was one of the plans.""No way!" Sean got all agitated. If his legs were fine, he would've sprung up to his feet in response.His pale expression turned red. "How could it be a devised plan? Gigi and I genuinely loved each other.""I believe in that. It is true that you gen
Olivia told Sean about her and Avery's recent findings. Upon learning that, Sean began to regret wasting so many years dwelling on his grief."Thank you, Dr. Fordham. You risked your life to save me. I will surely repay the favor in the future.""You're exaggerating, Mr. Sean. I became your doctor simply to repay Mr. Avery's favor. "He helped me a few years back then. Don't worry. I will do everything in my power to help you. "Cheer up! Don't put yourself down like before. Don't let Mr. Avery's effort go down the drain." "I understand." The glint in Sean's eyes was different. Avery was terribly ill, but he had to sustain the whole family all alone.In the meantime, Sean didn't do any of his duties under Avery's wing and caused the family trouble instead, worrying Avery.This time, Sean could see reality very clearly."Dr. Fordham, I will do as you say. But I have one question. You said I'm poisoned. Is my life in danger?""That person gave you a chronic drug. Although i
Olivia was preparing for the surgery as Sean's condition improved, thanks to the treatments. He turned over a new leaf, no longer dwelling on the unfortunate past. His goal was aligned with Avery's—they were striving to find out who the mastermind was.Sean's improving condition put Troy at ease. Troy cleaned out his stuff and returned to his work.It was only Troy left that Olivia shifted her gaze from him."Why did you keep staring at Troy, Dr. Fordham? Are you suspecting him? You stayed with him quite often these days. Did you find anything?"Instead of answering that question, she questioned back, "Do you think that he is the one?""Nope. Troy's been a reticent man since he was young. He's crazy about drawings and handicrafts. Designing is his whole world. "Once, he flew to Arlandia just to learn double-sided embroidery in person. It took him six months. "He even spent a fortune on a gemstone to craft it himself. Spent a whole year on that."I don't think a workaholic
"Every murder has a motive. Jacqueline is our little princess. Why would she hurt her sibling? That doesn't make sense." Sean shook his head. "Besides, she has been obedient since she was young.""Just that? She sounds average to me compared to your other siblings."The Fordhams, including the late Quinn, were good at numbers. Troy could craft a dragon out of wood at the age of four, and Avery was a genius.Jacqueline was relatively ordinary under her siblings' shadows."I think it's because she was a premature baby. She has been weak since she was young. She rarely joined cocurricular activities and indulged in hobbies. "She was a late bloomer, but she worked hard ever since the day she could remember things. Even though she wasn't that bright, she put in effort."For example, our family could memorize a poem after listening to it once. The average kid might need to listen to it five times, but she needs to listen to it about ten times. "Still, she never complains. She'd
Olivia nodded. "Yes. I don't have any proof of this yet. But that person is too skilled. I just want to remind you to consider all possibilities. "All our problems can be solved as soon as we lure Ginger out.""Noted, Dr. Fordham."Sean looked at his leg. "When can I get surgery?"Olivia had been performing acupuncture and soaking his legs in herbal waters. He felt like he was beginning to smell of herbs.Olivia noticed his sense of urgency. "Well, I had wanted to wait until your body was at its peak condition before I performed the surgery. "Since you're so anxious to get it done, I'll do it sooner. You'll be able to fend for yourself in the future if you run into any trouble.""Really, Dr. Fordham? I can have the surgery now?""That's right. I already asked Avery to prepare an operating room for us. We have to keep this operation a secret from everyone, even Mr. Lind.""Okay. I'll do whatever you say. I'll leave it up to you to make the arrangements."Olivia planned to ta
Reginald snapped back to reality. "I heard that they were going to look at some ice sculptures.""Are they out of their minds? Sean's unwell. How can she bring her somewhere so cold? Mr. Lind, you've been working for Sean for a long time. "Back when he insisted on moving out, my parents told you to come with him. They wanted you to keep an eye on him. Look what you've done. You allowed him to leave with a stranger!""Please calm down, Ms. Jacqueline. Mr. Sean isn't a child anymore. It's a good thing that he finally has the desire to live again. "He told me not to follow him. I can't exactly defy his orders, can I? Besides, Dr. Fordham is…""Shut up! You've failed to take care of Sean, and you're coming up with these excuses. Save them for when you talk to my parents!"Reginald looked at Jacqueline. She was normally gentle and kind, but it was like she was possessed at that moment. Her expression was cold.Reginald felt an inexplicable chill down his spine. His smile faded as h
Sean found Olivia's name to be familiar. When Quinn went missing, everyone in the family searched for a long time. In the end, it was Avery who brought her body back.He also told them that Olivia was the one who helped him find her. Back then, he had only heard of Olivia's name. He hadn't seen her before. He had planned to express his gratitude to her, but then, he got news of her passing. He had no contact with her and had only heard about her from Avery. After that, he got into a traffic accident himself and didn't have the energy to care about this matter anymore.Hearing that name again after so long stirred his emotions a little. "It's you. You were the one who found Quinn and saved us a lot of trouble. We may never have found her without your help. You told me you were indebted to Avery, but it's our family that's indebted to you.""You're too kind, Mr. Sean. I barely did anything."Olivia didn't try to get acknowledgment for her efforts. "You should be tired after s
Louis showed up after a short while. He seemed to be happy to see Olivia."You're back, Elise."He hugged her joyfully. He was like a kind uncle. "Mr. Rivera, you've built such a huge building on the mountain. What kind of research is going on in there?""Dear child, you'll find out when it's time for your transformation."Olivia's intuition told her that Louis was hiding a huge secret. But she couldn't force it out of him if he was unwilling to share."Mr. Rivera, can you help a friend of mine with an operation?"Louis was a very important man. Even the richest men in the world had to wait in line for his services. He was also obsessed with research. So, he was rarely in the mood to treat patients.Even so, he needed a lot of money to fund his research, so he couldn't turn down everyone who came to ask for treatment. Back then, his address got exposed, which caused people to line up at his door for treatment. That was why he built a new base that didn't tell anyone about it
