Ethan was dumbfounded. "He's a member of The Black Ravens?""He's a deserter, to be precise. He ran away from the organization two years ago. He's currently wanted by The Black Ravens. "So, he's been running around and evading The Black Ravens. Finding him will not be an easy task."Henry poured himself another glass of wine. "I've already told my brother about this. He'll also keep an eye out. He'll let you know if he finds anything. "What are you going to do next? Do you plan to follow behind a woman for the rest of your life?""Liv is different." Ethan ran his fingers over the photos. One of them had most of her face on display. He looked at the photo affectionately. "I've experienced the pain of losing her too many times. Now, I just want to keep her safe.""Man, you've put yourself in such a pathetic position in this relationship. You're not the man you used to be." Henry sneered. "You better not fall in love then." Ethan chuckled before he noticed something. "This
The man dragged Olivia away before she could react. He was followed by a group of tall guys. "Let go of me!" Olivia yelled. "It's dangerous here. It's not safe for a woman like you."The man started to run faster. He ran into a server, which caused him to spill alcohol all over the place. Henry's bodyguards caught up. Chaos ensued. The man had a tight grip on Olivia's arm. She frowned and said coldly, "I told you to let go!" "Young lady, I'm doing this for your sake. I'm taking you to someplace safe."He brought her to an alley as he was talking. Olivia began to realize how bad her situation was. The man was very strong. She wouldn't stand a chance against him. Her gaze fell on an abandoned shovel in the alley. She picked it up and swung it at the man's head. He reacted quickly. He let go of her arm and took a few steps back. "Don't be mistaken, miss. I'm just trying to help."Olivia said expressionlessly, "Stay away from me."At that moment, two dark figures rush
Ethan had a bad feeling in his heart when he saw blood at the entrance of the alley. He saw a few corpses lying in the alley.His vision blacked out, and he almost fell.Was Olivia dead? He didn't even dare to entertain that thought.Henry swiftly went over to the bodies. After confirming the identities of the dead bodies, he said, "Don't worry, your wife isn't among them."It was only then that Ethan let out a sigh of relief. He finally regained energy as he checked the bodies. "They died not long ago."A bodyguard identified the body. "This man was the one who took Ms. Fordham away."Back then, we ran after them right away, but they had messed up the bar so badly that we were held back by some people."In such a short time, Olivia had disappeared, but the man was dead.Was this the work of Olivia?But he hadn't given her the gun yet. Where did she get her weapon from?"It's not too possible. These men all died in one shot. It requires someone with good aim, which means th
Olivia was about to ask Jack what happened back then when her phone vibrated in her pocket.It was Joshua. Olivia answered the call. "Hello.""Ms. Fordham, where are you right now?" Joshua sounded a little anxious.Before sending the children to the island, Olivia had already paid off Joshua's salary. Why would he contact her at a time like this?"What's the matter?""Something happened to Logan. Please come and visit him."Olivia hadn't quite figured out the reason why Ethan had appeared at the bar. When she heard that something happened to Logan, her first reaction was worry."What happened to him?""Logan was ill a few days ago, and he drank a lot tonight. He had alcohol poisoning, and I've already sent him to the hospital. He kept mumbling about meeting you."Where are you, Ms. Fordham? Are you free to come visit him?"Olivia didn't know where she was right now. Even if she did, she couldn't recklessly reveal her location."I don't think I can. How is he now?""He has a
Joshua had set his phone on speaker mode. So, of course, Ethan heard that as well. When Olivia answered the call, her voice sounded natural.She also sounded a little wary, and she refused to reveal her location to Joshua."She went to the western suburbs in such a short amount of time, so someone must have taken her away. "She didn't ask for help over the phone, which means that this person wasn't a threat to her."They probably even helped her kill those assassins."Kelvin had a puzzled look on his face. "Judging by the injuries on those men, they died from one shot. It was one against three, so this person must have great marksmanship."Since when has Mrs. Miller gotten to know such an amazing person?"Ethan said, "This person has great aim, will kill someone without hesitation, and doesn't pose a threat to Liv. Only one person comes to mind."He thought of that man he encountered on the ship some time ago."It's Jack!"Olivia had returned to Aldenvine just to meet Ja
The night quickly passed by. The room was very cold, so a mere blanket couldn't provide much warmth.Olivia thought that she wouldn't fall asleep. But oddly enough, she felt very reassured with her child in her arms. So, she quickly went to sleep.Like a small fireplace, Zack cuddled in her arms and provided her with unending warmth.Olivia had a dream. In the dream, she was in a vast grassland. She held her two children's hands as she ran freely.Ethan stood at the end of their path, waving toward them. "Liv …"Olivia's eyes shot open. It was already bright outside, and Jack was long gone from the room.The windows didn't have curtains, so Olivia could see outside right away. It had been snowing the whole night, so everything she saw was white.Olivia quietly left Zack and got out of bed. When she opened the door, a cold breeze blew in her face.She had seen many snowy scenes before, but she was still shocked by what she saw.It was simply too beautiful!Endless white en
Jack said calmly, "Look ahead. What do you see?"Olivia took a few steps forward before finding herself at the edge of a cliff. Through the forest, she saw mountains in the distance. The snowy mountains seemed to go on forever, and they looked magnificent."Freedom.""Yes. As soon as you cross over the ravine and go forth, freedom awaits you."But after getting stopped by Ethan so many times, Olivia had lost her courage.She was scared. She feared that she might get caught again and sink into the endless dark abyss."Are you worried about him?"Olivia shook her head. "No. I'm … scared.""What are you scared of?""I'm scared that if we fail, you might get involved in this mess. I'm scared of what the future might become. As soon as I close my eyes, I think of Mona's death."Jack's voice was gentle. "There's nothing to be scared of. You've already survived the most difficult times. You shouldn't stop at the present unless you still want to live the life you had in the past.
Ethan stood with his hands behind his back. There was a worried look on his face."I'm afraid Alicia isn't the only one he's trying to take away. He also wants to bring Liv with him. "Liv has always been looking for a chance to leave me, and this is the best opportunity.""What do we do? Should we stop him right now? If not, with his capabilities, once he took Mrs. Miller away, it would be difficult for us to track them."Jack had always been a man who lived in the dark. He had many shady ways to disappear without a trace.Of course, Ethan knew that. He was in a dilemma.He had given Olivia too much trauma, and she probably needed a whole lifetime to heal from it.If he forcefully brought her back again, it would only add to her trauma. Their already tense relationship would worsen.But if he had to let go, this was the furthest Ethan could go.If he couldn't see Olivia and had no idea if she was safe, every second would be torture to him."Get her back, but we can't revea
