Now, Olivia hated Ethan even from just a few flashbacks she remembered on occasion. If she recalled everything that had happened, she would hate him to the core.But Janice had a point. Olivia's illness suddenly worsened because of the drugs. If there was a way to stop the drugs, could it also prevent her cancer cells from getting worse?Ethan was reluctant, but for the sake of Olivia's body, he had no other choice."Alright, I'll ask the doctor to reevaluate. I leave Liv in your hands."Ethan managed to find the medical team who had researched M1 back then. After some discussion, they came to the same conclusion Janice did.Chris suggested carefully, "Mr. Miller, to be honest, I've been meaning to say this a long time ago."Drugs that can wipe memories will have to break through the human immune system as well as various other barriers. They are also long-lasting drugs."The side effects aren't too severe in normal humans, but they will be amplified if the drugs come into conta
That day, Olivia was once again sent to the hospital for a checkup. Keith glanced at the data and various reports from CT scans and NMR tests.The more he read, the deeper his frowns became. "The chemo session she underwent two years ago was quite effective. But this time, it yielded minimal results."Also, the cancer cells are beginning to take over the tissues around them. Olivia's body can't take chemo sessions anymore. "It will only put more burden on her body and hasten her death."His words seemed to have sentenced Olivia to death. Ethan's hand, which was behind his back, gripped a corner of his shirt."Then she …"Keith shook his head. "For some reason, her cancer cells are spreading even faster now. If this goes on, Olivia will have another month to live at most. "If her condition worsens, she may only have two weeks …"Ethan felt his vision turning dark. He almost fainted on the spot.She only had two weeks to a month left, or maybe even shorter than that.Keit
Janice and Helen were cousins in the first place, and they were pretty similar in their devotion to love."Looks like you've finally cured your blindness. You no longer treat a common stone like treasure." Holding the fan in her hand, Helen fanned herself from time to time.Every movement of hers was charming.This was their first time meeting each other in a long while. Even so, the first thing they said to each other was a direct hit to the other's weak points.Janice didn't back down, either."It's nothing compared to your long-lasting love. You've been divorced for so many years, but you still spent so much effort to do all this."But in the end, you never did win over that Carlton guy, did you?"Helen replied, "I didn't win his heart, but at least I've gotten my revenge by destroying their family. I'm not as soft-hearted as you are, Janice."You gave your husband to another woman, and you even gave them money to help them make a comeback. "Janice, you're so kind that e
Helen was curious. "Oh? Why would you want that out of the blue?""It's embarrassing, but that lovestruck and stubborn son of mine used it on his wife. In the end, we found that the drug would stimulate the growth of cancer cells."Now, my daughter-in-law is dying. You've been researching this drug for years. Since we're cousins and all, please help me just this once."When Leia heard that, the fear and anxiety disappeared from her face, and an even colder expression took its place.So Janice didn't come here for her at all.It was Olivia again.Ethan loved Olivia. And now, Olivia was even trying to snatch Janice's love from her.Leia didn't even notice that a thorn had pierced her finger.What was she still fantasizing about?Her mother never loved her in the past, and it wouldn't change now.She was an unwanted child.Leia turned around to leave as a trail of blood dripped down her finger.Helen fiddled with the fan in her hand. "This drug was developed within our organiz
Janice gazed at Leia's face. Even though she couldn't make out the burn marks on Leia's face, she heard that Leia had undergone dozens of skin transplant surgeries to get to her current look.Janice's heart ached terribly.If she hadn't had mental problems back then, she wouldn't have harmed her biological daughter."You should leave. She's doing very well right now, and she loves researching and developing drugs. But your existence is harmful to her."Janice stared at her. "I'm just looking."As if sensing something, Leia walked over to the two. But she could only see the sheer white of the glass.She smiled self-mockingly. Janice never loved her at all. How could Janice be here to see her?Meanwhile, in the Miller residence, Brent handed the antidote to Ethan right away. "This is the antidote, Mr. Miller. When Mrs. Miller takes it, she will be able to recover all her memories.""… Alright."With his hands behind his back, he stood before the large floor-to-ceiling window
Gentle sunlight shone in through the window. Ethan had his back to the light, and the sunlight coated him with a gentle golden glow.His firm features appeared much gentler as well. He sat there quietly, and tiny dust particles danced around him.At that moment, it seemed like they had gone back in time to when they first met each other.In just a few years, they could no longer return to who they once were.Long silence replaced their rare greetings. Ethan wasn't confident at all."Did you remember everything?""Yes."Olivia's expression had changed. It was resolute and cold. She spoke up straight away. "Ethan. If you still have the tiniest shred of conscience left, let me go."A bitter and exasperated smile appeared on Ethan's lips. As expected, after she regained her memories, the first thing she wanted was to get away from him."Liv, I know that you hate me. But your body is not in a good condition right now. It's not that I don't want to let you go, but I simply can't
Sharon was elated when she heard Olivia taking the initiative to ask for food.In the past week, Olivia didn't have much of an appetite. So, this was a good sign.Unbeknownst to her, Olivia still didn't feel like eating right now. But Olivia could only try her best so that she could survive.Sharon felt comforted when she watched Olivia taking huge bites of the food. "Yes, it's a good thing to eat more. You'll strengthen your immune system."Olivia ate too quickly. So, after feeling nauseous for a bit, she threw up.When Sharon saw how much Olivia was suffering, she felt heartbroken as well. "Why don't you take it easy for now, Mrs. Miller?"After drinking some water, Olivia calmed down. Then, she began to eat again.Many cancer patients in the advanced stage couldn't eat much. The less they ate, the weaker their immune system became and the more active their cancer cells would be.After eating, Olivia threw up again. When she was done, she continued eating.She only had o
Back then, Avery was wearing a mask throughout the process.He was the boss behind the scenes of Peace's Embrace, so only a few people would know about his identity. Perhaps even his family was in the dark. So, Olivia could only gather information discreetly.As expected, Troy scratched his head in confusion. "Peace's Embrace? What's that?""Nothing. I was just asking. Is Mr. Avery in a very bad condition?"She recalled the man's haggard face from two years ago. It had been two years since then, so he must have found a suitable kidney by now, right?With the position and status of the Fordhams, no matter what methods he used, it wouldn't be much trouble for him to get a matching kidney.Troy's voice was low. "Well, it's a little complicated. Ms. Fordham, if you have any requests, feel free to ask."Olivia asked some questions. They weren't quite familiar with each other, after all. So, without revealing Avery's current situation, Troy ended the call.If Olivia couldn't get he
