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
"Go ahead. I'll help as long as it's something I can do."Olivia spoke a few words in his ear. Keith looked a little worried. "Are you sure you want to do that?""Keith, I want to leave this place no matter if I'm dead or alive.""Alright, I'll try my best."When Ethan received her blood test report, he was a little puzzled. "Her red and white blood cells have increased a little, and all her health indicators are improving as well. Why can't she get out of bed yet?"Chris shook his head as well. "That can't be. Logically speaking, Mrs. Miller should be able to walk around now."Keith had a cold look on his face. "Do you know how strong the drugs used in chemotherapy are? Other than her cancer cells, her normal cells were destroyed as well."Just one session was enough to impair her health. Her knees were weak, and her limbs were cold, too. "It has only been around 20 days since then. So, it's normal that she can't get out of bed."You can't recover from damage like that w
Sharon could understand why Janice did what she did in the past. How could any woman tolerate her husband taking care of another woman?Sharon was in a dilemma. If they didn't go, Olivia might overthink it. If they went, though, the two women might get into a fight if they met."Sharon, I can see that there's something off about this yard."To Sharon's surprise, Olivia stood up from the wheelchair. Staggering, she walked forward."Let's go back, Mrs. Miller.""I want to see who exactly is being hidden there."Realizing that the situation was getting worse, Sharon hastily told someone to get Ethan here.Olivia had a cold look on her face when she saw Ethan striding over to her. "Open the door. Let me go inside to have a look.""Let's go back, Liv.""You keep saying that you love me, right? Let's see who you love for real."Refusing to back down, Olivia glared at the bodyguard. "Open the door."Ethan wanted to take her away by force, but when he remembered her current conditio
