Chapter 1559
Fortunately, the times had changed. It wasn't like 60 years ago when information was hard to come by. If Olivia wanted to, she would be able to find the information necessary.Shana came from the Johnson family, which was a rich and influential family.She had six older brothers, and she was the only daughter. So, she was pampered from a young age.She grew up in a loving family, and she was the apple of everyone's eye in the truest sense. She wasn't just pretty and friendly. Even before she was of age, she received many marriage proposals. Even nobles from other countries wanted to marry her.Of her numerous admirers, there was one very special man.After all, Shana's admirers back then were from top families around the world. To stand out among them, money was no longer an important factor to consider.This man was called a genius inventor, and he also possessed unparalleled medical skills. He was quite a famous person too.His love could only be described as intense. To win S

Those were the most unwelcome words to the Fordhams at that moment. They were startled when they heard that."Mr. Zimmerman, you're an old and respected man in this house. Why are you so flustered?"Olivia had a bad feeling in her heart. Back when she had just come over, she could sense that Morgan Zimmerman was a very calm and collected person judging by how he treated her.But that very same man had a panicked expression on his face now. He even tripped and fell when he came in through the door. It had to be a serious matter."What exactly happened, Mr. Zimmerman?" Jacqueline hastily helped him up.In a trembling voice, Morgan said, "Mr. Fordham Senior was in a private jet. Midflight, the private jet caught fire and exploded!""W-What!"Jacqueline fainted on the spot."Jacqueline!"Avery carried her in his arms. The Fordhams, who were already a mess, found themselves in an even worse situation.Olivia strode forward. After checking Jacqueline, she said, "Don't worry, she ju

Sean did what Troy wanted to do the most. "I'm at fault too. I haven't done my part in the past few years. I even dragged you guys down.""Enough!"Olivia slammed her palm on the table, attracting their attention."This isn't the time to be owning up to your mistakes. The more you do this, the happier Brandon will be. Mr. Fordham Senior's plane has exploded, and we can't be sure if he's really dead for now. Don't jump to conclusions."Olivia held her head high. She never thought that a day would come when she would play such a crucial role in the Fordham family."Of course, you have to be prepared for the worst. If Mr. Fordham Senior has truly passed away, as his sons, you should keep the family safe. Don't hurt your family and do what your enemies would love to see."Our utmost priority is to locate Madam Fordham as soon as possible. Her eyes have to be treated urgently. If not, even if she's found later on, her eyes won't be able to recover anymore."Next, Mr. Fordham Senior h

Olivia was puzzled by the newcomer. He was a stranger to her, but he seemed to be quite close to Jacqueline.Avery had probably noticed the confusion in Olivia's eyes. He explained, "This is the son of the Procter family, Alexander Procter. He's also Jacqueline's fiancé. They were betrothed even before birth."The Procter family?Olivia suddenly felt like it was quite a small world. She felt like she was going back to where she started.Ethan's mother, Janice, was part of the Procter family. Back then, she cut off ties with her family for Kenneth's sake.Olivia didn't expect Jacqueline's fiancé to be from the Procter family.When Alexander heard their conversation, he looked at Olivia as well. "This is…"Wiping away her tears, Jacqueline made the introductions. "This is Dr. Fordham, the person I told you about. She has exceptional medical skills, and she's also Sean's sweetheart."Holding Alexander's hand and pulling him with her, Jacqueline walked toward Olivia. "Dr. Fordham,

Avery agreed, "You're right, Jacqueline. But now's not the time.""Why not?""Our parents aren't his only target. We're involved in many accidents, except you. He surely won't let you get away from this. Bring the bodyguards along whenever you're out. Check your car before driving. And stop all your participation in public events."Jacqueline frowned. "Avery, as long as it's to protect our family, I'm not afraid. Our family holds a long tradition. Dad had sacrificed a lot too. I don't want to see his effort go down the drain. "Now, I'm the only person fit to manage the company. I'm just afraid that things might go south if this takes up too much time.""I know you have good intentions, but things aren't doing great lately. You're our only hope. I won't let you take the risk. Besides, Dad must've prepared something to buy us time before he passed on. Just stay at home for a few days and don't go anywhere." He patted her shoulder. "Take care of yourself. I don't want to lose you

Jacqueline nodded. "I won't let you down, Avery. Take care.""Okay." Avery slowly rose to his feet. "I need to handle Dad's funeral now. I'll be counting on you, Jacqueline.""Okay, don't worry about it."Before he left, he reminded her, "Oh, Jacqueline. Dr. Fordham isn't an outsider. You can tell her anything. She can help you out.""Got it." All meek and demure she was when Avery was around.However, the moment he left, her expression changed.She slammed the door shut, unable to control her rage. "That bitch! Who is she to manage the household with me?"Alexander held her hand. "There, there. We're halfway through our plan. The Fordham family is reaching its demise. They're on the chopping block. They won't be able to turn the tables anymore.""Jeez! It was supposed to be a good opportunity to take over the Fordham family.""Avery's doing this because he's worried about you. He doesn't want to drag you into the fray. Don't be angry. We've already bided our time for years. T

Sean's eyes widened when Olivia said that. "You're saying that there's a mole in our family.""Think about it. Garrett's autopsy report is out. He died only in recent years. In other words, Brandon only used his identity for years, but the tragedies happening in the Fordham family aren't something new. "You guys have been suffering for at least more than ten years. Do you think he could have had everything his way without a mole?"Sean finally got the whole picture. "Thank god you reminded me.""It's not your fault. Way too many things have happened to the Fordham family. It's normal for you to lose your reasoning. Outsiders always see the picture clearer than the people involved. Anyway, the other party spent more than ten years—or maybe longer than that—to set this up. Doing it all alone is impossible.""Does that mean Avery is in more danger?" Sean frowned, feeling concerned. Shana's kidnapping wasn't the end of it; it could be the start of something."No, I can't let anyth

Jacqueline heard the commotion and rushed to the room. "Sean, what's going on?"Olivia kept a safe distance from Sean. "Ms. Jacqueline, stay away from him. He's not mentally stable. He might hurt you.""Why is he acting this way?""Ms. Jacqueline, I received news of Mr. Fordham Senior a while ago. I can't contact Mr. Avery because he's on the plane, and Mr. Troy has just finished his surgery. Mr. Sean is the only person who can make the final call in the family, s-so I told him.""Did something happen to Grandpa?" Jacqueline was shocked."He found out what's going on within the family and had a heart attack… He passed away on the spot.""Nonsense! He's fine! I'm going to rip off that mouth of yours!" Sean grabbed a slipper nearby and hurled it at Morgan. Alarmed, Morgan pulled Jacqueline away. "This is bad! Mr. Sean has lost his mind!""Leave us for a moment. I'll look after him. This bombshell is too much of a shock for him. Let him calm down.""No, this is too dangerous, Dr
