The idea flashed through her mind momentarily. But Ethan's scornful face quickly filled her thoughts. She knew that Ethan could take her words as she was trying to get her father off the hook. He had already mocked her countless times for her schemes. Moreover, if she told him what she knew before uncovering the truth, it might alert the mastermind and force him to switch things up. So, she suppressed her urge to tell Ethan what she knew. In reality, the existence of a mastermind wouldn't have affected their relationship. It was the fact that Ethan had an affair. Olivia was more composed than she used to be. She responded with a muffled sound. Olivia's mind was clearer than it ever was after she got the reply she wanted. She clutched Ethan's clothes tightly. Uncovering the truth had become her only reason to be alive. "Thank you for calling the ambulance.""There is no need to look at something that happened so long ago. Let's go to bed."Ethan thought that Olivia
Jack agreed to Olivia's request without any hesitation. Tom and Jerry spent a long time catching up with Olivia. "Ms. Olivia, Jack left the island shortly after you did. He should have come to Aldenvine. "If you need his help, you can contact him in private.""Do you guys know his background?" Olivia felt that Jack was very mysterious. He was a man who owned a lot of firearms. And she still doesn't know what he looked like. The information that Calvin dug up was definitely going to be limited. Jack was different. He might have special channels to gather more information. In addition, Jack was a mysterious entity. The mastermind would not know about his existence. "Jack washed up on our shores a few years ago. He was on the brink of death when he arrived. Mom saved his life. "He didn't seem to have any family, so he stayed on our island. But I think he might be an incredible person. His marksmanship is excellent." Tom scratched his head in embarrassment at the menti
Jerry tried to block Olivia's line of sight by standing in front of her. "Don't look, Ms. Olivia."On the other hand, Tom burst out in curses, "I take back what I said about him. He betrayed his wife. "He's scum. Don't look at a scum like him, Ms. Olivia. You don't have to dirty your eyes by looking at him."Olivia's heart ached for a bit. Ethan was married to Marina. It didn't change anything, even if Ethan held her captive and slept next to her every night. Marina wanted to solidify her status. So, she planned for open shows of affection between her and Ethan. She also showed up in public places with Ethan in tow. She didn't expect to see Olivia here and held Ethan's arm tighter. It was her way of showing off her victory. It was a simple strategy, but it was effective. Ethan watched as Olivia brought Tom and Jerry to another area of the exhibit. He then withdrew his hand from Marina's clutches. In the past, he was still courteous to Marina. But now, he wasn't even w
Even though Olivia was being so docile, he felt a sense of unexplainable mystery to her. That caused him to feel uneasy. It would have been in his nature to hold her captive by his side after he brought her back from the island. But he suppressed his desire to do that. Instead, he gave her freedom and fulfilled her wishes. He even took extra care of Tom and Jerry.He thought that if he did so much for her, she would be so happy that her eyes lit up. In reality, she was calm. There were no emotions in her eyes. No matter how much he did for her, it didn't stir her emotions even a little. Olivia's calm face was reflected in his icy gaze. "Olivia, enough is enough."Ethan's voice was filled with uncontrollable anger. "Even if I marry her, it would not affect your position at all."His words sounded like he was doing her a favor. Olivia smiled. The mockery in her smile was apparent. "She already has the position of Mrs. Miller. What else do I have to give?"Before Eth
There was barely any light in the cabinet. Olivia was trembling in fear. She would not have come if she knew how scary it was.A familiar voice suddenly started laughing softly next to her. The person was amused by her fear. The voice resembled someone she knew. At that moment, a prop lamp was turned on. Eerie green light shone on his deathly pale face. Olivia was about to scream, then the voice said, "It's me."Olivia paused and swallowed nervously. She called out his name carefully, "Jack?" "Yeah." The usually reserved man's voice had a hint of joy. "I'm sorry we have to meet this way. I didn't know you were so easily scared."The truth was he had no intention of scaring Olivia. He dressed up as a ghost so that he could evade the bodyguards.He didn't expect to be grabbed and dragged along by Olivia before he could speak. Olivia patted herself on the chest and said, "You scared me to death."Jack has never seen Olivia so frightened, not even when he had a knife ag
Olivia snuck out the backdoor with Jack. She also changed into new clothes. She was surprised by Jack's incredible skill in disguise. He just stuck a few things on her face and easily changed her facial features. He then added a layer of powder and made her look about ten years older. Jack's face was the same. He disguised himself as a middle-aged man. He looked completely different from his usual self. They headed to the Harmony Psychiatric Hospital. Olivia impersonated Belle's distant relative and met the hospital director. Jack did not show himself. He flipped over the metal fence with relative ease. Olivia was shocked at the sight. Even if the fence wasn't electrocuted, there were spikes on top. She didn't understand how Jack was able to pull it off. They decided to divide and conquer. Olivia told the director why she was there. The director displayed a hint of regret. "Sigh, the poor kid was sad. Her parents never visited her even though she was here for su
It was Olivia's first time in a place like this. The room was freezing. The cold seeped in from the bottom and spread through her body. It also felt like countless eyes were looking at her from behind. It took all her energy to remain standing in the room. "Don't be afraid," Jack said softly. Olivia's hands were covered in cold sweat. She said in a low tone, "We want to say our goodbyes.""Okay, but don't take too long. I'll be waiting outside."The employee left. A gust of wind came out of nowhere. It scared Olivia so much that she jumped into Jack's arms. Jack held her waist and sighed lightly. "You're not suited for a place like this. Wait for me outside. I'll be out in a while.""But …"Jack's expression was stern. "I've seen a lot of dead people, all sorts of corpses."Olivia wasn't willing to leave, no matter what he said. Jack said sheepishly, "Alright, you keep your eyes closed. I'll describe to you what I see.""Okay." Olivia agreed to his suggestion. S
Olivia had seen the bodies of old deceased people in the family. But those were different compared to this gruesome body. Even though she didn't get a clear look at Belle's face, it was enough to make her gag. Jack patted her on the back to help her breathe. "Are you okay?""I'm sorry," Olivia said apologetically. "I can understand. People don't normally see dead bodies, much less decomposed ones.""Why aren't you afraid?""I got used to seeing them." Jack's voice was calm. There was a distant look in his eyes. "And living humans are more horrifying than the dead ones." Olivia didn't know what he had been through. He only looked a few years older than her, but he was shrouded in mystery. She knew that he had to have been through a lot of suffering to become like that. Maybe she wasn't the only one that was suffering in the world. Olivia pushed down the fear in her heart and turned on the flashlight. "I'll shine the light for you. Take a look quickly.""Okay. Close y
