Ethan was looking around for Olivia. When he found her and Willow unscathed, a wave of relief washed over him. "Where have you been?"Olivia cast a glance at Jacqueline, who was just nearby, and made up an excuse. "I was spending time with Willow.""Alexander said that Jacqueline can do the ritual tonight.""Finally," she exclaimed. She crouched down and whispered to Willow, "Better be careful tonight. They're bad guys. We never know what they have up their sleeves."Willow nodded.The night sky dawned, and layers of grey clouds covered the moon with the stars hiding behind them.Most of the locals went to bed quite early. Places that were still lit up were business operations and army bases.Dim lights brightened the port, adding a luster to the mood.That night, Olivia and Jacqueline sat by the beach. There was a speedboat nearby. Jacqueline reminded sternly, "You can only come after me after three days as promised.""Yes."After what Jacqueline had done to the Fordham fa

As the dark blood oozed out of Olivia and Jacqueline, the excruciating pain zapped through their bodies.Olivia was on the brink of losing herself, and Jacqueline was no less better.Jacqueline had always been arrogant her whole life, but now, she struggled to quell the urge to scream. All she could do was watch the filthy blood flowing out of her.The pain was too much to hold in, causing Olivia to shake. She tightly clutched the hem of her shirt, trying not to break the ritual. According to their plan, the bleeding was supposed to stop after a certain period. Jacqueline's bleeding showed an indication of stopping, but not Olivia's. Olivia lost more blood than Jacqueline did. She was basically sitting in a pool of dark blood! It was as though something was sucking her blood dry out of her. Olivia noticed the situation and started panicking. But she didn't dare to do anything because she wasn't the witch. Plus, she hadn't dealt with curses. What if she interrupted the ritual a

Things turned odd in a blink of an eye.Birds began flapping their wings in the woods, reptiles and insects suddenly showed up, and there were even things squirming out of the sea!Worm eels! They were a poisonous species!Jacqueline was dumbfounded by the turn of events. She had never seen something like this before! Even Alexander, a witch who was good with curses, had always thought that beast tamers were merely legends. Who knew that a little girl like Willow would be one?Compared to curses, taming beasts was a whole new level of difficulty.Alexander learned how to cast curses since young. It was a skill that took time and effort to learn. However, the Beast Tamer Clan had always been a reclusive tribe that lived deep in the mountains. They were particularly strict in appointing their successors. With the founding of the nation, they left the mountains and mingled with the people. They had long digressed into ordinary people. Never in his wildest dreams did Alexander

Wayne's eyes frantically scanned over Olivia. "Are you alright?""I'm fine. Just some scratches. Jacqueline mustn't get away!""Don't worry, I have people ready in the vicinity."Jacqueline was a sly fox with Alexander on her side. Olivia vowed to herself that she would capture Jacqueline even if Shana's life was in danger. Forget about knowing Shana's whereabouts. If Jacqueline knew that information, that would mean she and Brandon were plotting something together!If Jacqueline escaped, it was impossible for her to tell Olivia Shana's whereabouts.The promise was a way to buy herself some time. Both parties had something plotted right from the beginning. They wanted each other dead!Now that things had turned out this way, someone had to die, and it was either Olivia or Jacqueline. Unfortunately for Jacqueline, she was wrong about someone—Wayne. Wayne was Ethan's enemy, so Jacqueline initially thought that luring Olivia to Wayne's territory might give her the upper hand

After saying that, Alexander began to sense that something wasn't right. Those yachts and that helicopter were really coming after them! "No, this can't be! This is the army base of a different country. Just who is Olivia? How could she demand their military chopper?" Jacqueline had racked her brain thinking of a place, and she ended up choosing this island. But it seemed like it was a bad decision. "Don't worry. The ship that's supposed to be coming for us is on its way." Alexander tried his best to calm her down, but his voice was shaking from nervousness.He didn't have the time and tools to cast a curse to help themselves in this situation. Now, he was weaker than an ordinary person. When they finally saw the ship, the helicopter above them released fire at it. Its body was on fire, and the crew jumped off it to save themselves. The fire slowly burned the couple's hope into ashes. They were surrounded with no way out. "Olivia Fordham, that bitch!" All Jacqueline could

Before the medic could bandage Olivia's hand, another thunderous explosion could be heard from the sea. She had always known how vile-tempered and straightforward Wayne was. She bet that he opted to kill Jacqueline in the most convenient way possible.Staring at the flames that were soaring to the sky, Olivia had mixed feelings. Jacqueline had done so many cruel things. Killing her this way was simply an act of benevolence. Reflecting on the hardships she had endured thus far, Olivia figured that Jacqueline shouldn't have died this easily. Jacqueline was a calculating witch! Olivia nearly died so many times because of her!However, it seemed that Olivia's party didn't have a better option.Wayne's tall figure cast a shadow. "Don't worry. The chances of her surviving the sea is nil."Olivia hummed in response. Although the curse was lifted, she didn't feel happy. She still didn't know where Shana was. How were they supposed to look for her? The only good news was that We
Chapter 1666
Wendell had been frail all his life. He never imagined that his biological son would have been missing for so many years. What surprised him more was that Wayne had grown up well despite hardships. Still, there seemed to be something off about this son of his.They were father and son who had been separated for years. Now that the truth was revealed, shouldn't they be hugging each other in tears of joy? Why did Wayne show no joy in reuniting with his father but seemed interested in his identity as the son of the Procter family—or more precisely, the marriage arrangement between the Procter family and the Fordham family?""Son, things are a bit complicated right now. We need to take our time to discuss this thoroughly—""Am I not your son?" Wayne's restless temperament was exactly the same as his mother's. There was no chance of dissuading him. There was only one thing in his head. He felt fortunate that he had run a background check on the ties between both families. Otherwise
Chapter 1667
Wendell felt helpless. He was seriously down on luck.Instead of his son, he thought that he had found himself a bossy superior. It was a heartfelt reunion after 30 years of separation, and yet the first thing Wayne talked about was an announcement about his marriage rather than expressing words of concern for his family. If it were any ordinary woman, Wendell wouldn't have minded it. But the person he insisted on marrying was none other than Olivia! She was a divorced woman with four kids!On top of that, Olivia's ex-husband was Wendell's nephew! The divorced couple was somewhat entangled with each other too.Ethan and Wayne were both dear to him. What should he do? Wendell was at his wit's end. Ignoring Wendell's dilemma, Wayne handed him a cigarette. But Wendell refused, "I quit it."Wayne lit a cigarette and squatted on the ground. Instead of a ruler of a land, he appeared more like a construction worker. Wendell massaged his forehead at that. How had his son grown
