Olivia had been resting well these days, so her stats were showing improvement.Keith could tell that her complexion looked better than before. She seemed alive."How does it feel to live here, Olivia? Are you getting used to the environment?" he inquired."Yeah, everything's great. Iri takes care of me meticulously. I'm happy here."Most importantly, she didn't need to live under Ethan's control or worry about assassinations.The majority of illnesses were rooted in bad mental health. Since there was no pressure, she was able to recover quickly. "Glad to hear that. Iri loves helping people out when she can. Just tell her if you need anything.""Thank you. I'll be sure to remember this favor. If I'm still around in the future, I'll be sure to repay your favor."Irene said, "You don't have to be a stranger with us, Olivia. Come, sit down. Let's have a talk."Olivia slowly sat down. "What is it that you want to tell me, Dr. Rogers? Did he find out something?"She knew how skep
Keith heaved a sigh, relieved by Olivia's current condition. "I thought it would pain you to know his situation and you'd regret your decision. I'm glad that you've gotten over him.""Dr. Rogers, the past Olivia has died in that sea. I made this choice myself, and I won't regret it."He suddenly recalled the moment he asked her if she regretted marrying Ethan, and she had calmly answered that she did not.This time, the determination settled in her eyes steadily. She showed pertinence as though she had been given a new lease of life."Before I finish what I should do, I'll never give up on my life." She had made up her mind.Other than escaping from Ethan, there were so many things Olivia had yet to do.She had to find out who the mastermind was and one more person.After regaining her memories, she thought of the person she met when she was suffering from amnesia—Jack.He had been carrying twins in his arms. The kids looked familiar to her.Most importantly, they weighed the
Brent took his phone out. "This is what we got from the micro camera."Based on the footage, Olivia was reading a book in the yard quietly. Although the camera was the size of a spider, its recorded footage was of high-resolution quality.Lifting his hand, Ethan caressed Olivia's face on the screen. As he had thought, letting her go was a good decision. She seemed better than before."We have updates. Keith asked someone to prepare the medicines for chemotherapy. It seems like Mrs. Miller is going to undergo her second round of chemotherapy.""Got it."Even though Ethan could barely see the lights in the mansion, he was assured at the idea that Olivia was in there.However, they shouldn't alarm the people in the mansion. They could only place the micro camera in the yard and wait for Olivia to come out."We should head back, Mr. Miller. You can't see Mrs. Miller from here either. Now that we know she's still alive, please be rest assured."Recalling how strong Olivia's reactio
Ethan played along with Keith. "I know.""Olivia is gone. What's your next plan?"Ethan was a clever person. It took him one second to know what Keith meant by that.Ethan thought, "It seems like taking his things home is an excuse. He's trying to check on my plans for Olivia."Ethan turned and answered, "I initially planned to start life anew with Olivia. But unexpectedly, I didn't get to wait for that day to come. I'll be returning to the country soon."Since Olivia was afraid of Ethan, he figured that it was better for him to leave.Keith quickly asked, "When are you planning to leave?"Noticing that he seemed anxious about it, he hurriedly added, "As a friend, I would like to send you and Olivia off.""Tomorrow. You can come if you want to."After Keith left, a dubious Kelvin questioned, "Mr. Miller, Mrs. Miller has just finished her second round of chemotherapy. Can you leave her with peace of mind?"Brent added, "I'm afraid Mrs. Miller is still worried, which is why she
Back in the Fordham residence, Avery's life was finally no longer in danger. Troy heaved a sigh of relief."Avery, you finally woke up. You don't know how worried I was that you might not regain consciousness."Avery had just regained his consciousness, hence the pale complexion. He gave Troy a comforting smile. "How could I leave you behind? Look at your hair. You're like a disheveled lion."Troy was a designer, so he dressed fashionably. He didn't clean himself up during the days he was looking after Avery. Therefore, his golden hair was a mess, and he looked like an ungroomed Husky."Can't believe you're joking right now, Avery. Look at how unlucky you are.""How am I unlucky? I'm still alive, so I think I'm lucky."Troy snorted. "It wasn't easy to look for someone who was willing to donate a kidney that matches yours. "Who knew that such an accident would happen?""It's not like he asked for it. We can't do anything about the car accident.""You're too kind, Avery. I
Seven days after the chemotherapy, Olivia could get out of the bed. However, she became bald due to the treatment this time.She looked at her sharp jaw and her bald head.Irene, who helped her out of bed, comforted her, "It's alright, Olivia. Your hair will grow again once you stop taking the medicines."Olivia was unbothered and smiled. "What's the use of a beautiful face when it comes to matters of life and death? I'm already grateful at the fact that I'm still alive.""I'm glad to hear that, Olivia. Frankly speaking, you should not be bothered at all. Even if you're bald, you're prettier than most people. "Just one look at you makes me understand how a person can make others fall in love at first sight. If I had your looks, I would've been smiling in my dreams.""Irene, take me outside. I would like to get some fresh air.""Sure."There wasn't as much snow in this city as Aldenvine. The temperature here was perfect. It wasn't easy to catch a cold.It was a suitable pl
This was the first time Leia took the initiative to explain her stance. Ethan was sitting before the tea table brewing tea. "Fire away."She looked at the patterns on the teapot. "That year, I lost my way and was sold to the mountains. I had a rough time over there. "I was fortunate enough to be able to escape from there …"She glossed over her suffering instead of going into the details. Ethan asked, "How did you escape?"The information he managed to find was only on the surface. There was no detailed description written.Still, she didn't go into the details. "Easy. I planned for it for a long time. I hid a lighter to light up the stored hay. They were poor, so there wasn't much hay for me to burn. But …"She paused momentarily before continuing, "Before I burned the hay, I locked that family up in a room, and they burned alive. I walked for a month to get out of the mountains."Since I was burned, everyone saw me as a monster. I was lucky enough to bump into a kind person
Although Leia was slapped, the obsessive and distorted smile remained on her face. "I am insane. Why do I have to suffer alone? Since I was already in hell, I wanted to drag more people into the fray. Ethan, if you wanna blame anyone, blame yourself for loving Olivia."Then, she recalled something before adding, "I don't mind if you hit me. I was the mastermind, but don't you forget the fact that you were the executor. "You didn't believe in her. You ignored her, neglected her, and bullied her. You were the one who hurt her the most, not me."Ethan let down his hand, knowing that she was right. He was the one to blame. He didn't have the right to blame others.He was drained, and he lit a cigarette while staring blankly. "Are you happy now that she's gone and I've lost everything?"Leia's gaze fell onto his haggard face wordlessly. No one knew what was going on in her mind.His cigarette was burnt until its tip throughout the suffocating silence. Only then did Ethan scrutini
