Chapter 939
Olivia saw Ethan carrying Connor in his arms while she was on the helicopter. She felt a pang in her heart. She was such a bad mother. They finally got to see each other again, but she left him again. She knew Connor must be devastated. She leaned on the window, and her tears never stopped flowing. Ultimately, she watched as the father and son walked away into the snow, and she lost sight of them. She didn't know when she would see her son again after that day.The helicopter flew toward the island. It took quite some time for Olivia to recover from the depression she felt from parting with her son. She saw Everly, Alicia, and Zack playing around before the helicopter landed. Even though she couldn't hear their voices, she could feel that they were having a lot of fun. Everly stopped the game when she heard the sound of the helicopter approaching. She brought the children over to welcome Olivia. They hadn't seen each other for a week. Everly seemed to be in a better mood, pr
Chapter 940
Ethan looked at Henry, who was as stubborn as he used to be. He didn't make fun of his naïveté. He was still new to being in love. He would only mature after going through some hardships. These experiences weren't something Henry would just listen to if someone else told him. He had to experience them himself. Ethan didn't mock his arrogance because karma was fair to all. Henry would eventually experience what he had coming.Besides, Ethan already sensed that Henry treated Everly differently. She clearly wasn't just another lover to him like he claimed. It was fine. Love would eventually punish him for his lies. As he was talking, Henry looked at the video footage again. In the video, Everly was sitting on the beach and looking at the sea. She looked more emotionally stable than before. It seemed like Ethan's suggestion was right. She needed her friend and those children to heal her. "There's still a lot of trouble back at home. I'll let her stay on the island for three mo

Everly started to have hope for the future after she learned that she could leave in five days. "Eve, what plans do you have?""Back when we were in school, I wanted to earn more money to better my life. I've been working very hard in the past few years and have made quite some money. "But I lost something more important. I want to go to a normal country and work for a charity. I want to help out less fortunate children."If I get tired of that, I'll pick up some skills and open a cafe or a flower boutique. I might even travel the world and live a life that's completely different from the one I had.""Okay."Everly looked at Olivia and asked, "What about you?""I want to get stronger. I want to further my medical career, and I want to be a person my teacher can be proud of."Olivia had a determined look in her eyes. "That's great."Everly sighed. "It's like we're back to our high school senior days. Back then, we'd sit under a tree at school, filled with hope for the futur

Everly's face paled when she heard Henry's voice. She quickly took off the blindfold. The man standing before her was none other than Henry. She stuttered, "W-WWhy … are y-you here?"Henry smiled. "I've been missing you every day you've been gone, Ms. Hilton. It seems like you're having a good time on the island. Have you forgotten about me?"The maids read the situation and quickly left. The two children didn't know what was going on. They stared at Henry with their bright, round eyes. Under the innocent gaze of the children, Henry had no choice but to suppress his impatience and let go of Everly. "You're Zack, and you're Alicia, right?"The two children looked at him with docile expressions. Suddenly, Alicia blurted out, "Dad?"Henry was amused. He crouched and picked her up. She was like a cute kitten looking for its parent. "Dear child, I'm not your dad. Don't be mistaken."Disappointment flashed in Alicia's eyes. Where was their father?Henry played with Alicia for a

Everly pursed her lips. "That's not funny at all. What should we do, Liv? His appearance means our plan …"Henry's voice came from behind her. "Your plan? What plan? What have you been plotting behind my back, Ms. Hilton?"Everly had the urge to slap herself. She almost exposed their plan to Henry. Olivia was able to remain calm. She took off her face mask and set down her tools. Then, she removed the scrubs and left the operating room. "It's nothing. I'm not sure if Everly means the plan to stab you in your sleep or the one to poison you. She comes up with hundreds of plans like these every day." Everly sighed in relief. Then, she signaled at Olivia with her eyes as if telling her she did a good job. They had different personalities. Olivia was calm and controlled, while Everly was straightforward and wild. Henry smiled. "You're so cheeky. Mrs. Miller here is way more composed than you."Olivia retorted calmly, "Mr. Synder, you should already know I'm divorced. You should

Olivia washed her hands and walked out of the dissecting room. The two children went up to her. "Mom, Mister …""I know. Go play."There was a hint of worry in Olivia's eyes. She felt like Henry's appearance wasn't a coincidence. Since her departure, Ethan never showed up again. There wasn't any news of him either. As it drew closer to the day they were to leave the island, the unease she felt grew. Ethan was only willing to let her go because she was on this island. But she was still right under his nose. He would never let her leave if he knew she was going off on her own. Olivia's gaze fell on the door to Everly's room. She didn't know if Henry would take Everly away. If Everly went back with Henry, her life would be even worse than what Olivia had been through. At least Ethan loved her and only her despite everything he did. Henry was different. Everly was just a toy to him. He would never marry her. Even if they had a child together, Everly would only be a mistress,

Henry was taken aback. He couldn't believe Everly would actually say that. Even when she threw fits at the hospital previously, she never talked about ending things. Henry frowned slightly. "Say that one more time."Everly lowered her head and fiddled with her nails. "I said I'm tired of this. Let's end it."The arm around her waist suddenly pulled her closer into his embrace. Henry said through gritted teeth, "I'll give you one chance to take that back.""Mr. Synder, I've thought things through. I don't want a relationship like this.""You don't want a relationship like this?" Henry sneered as he reached out to tilt Everly's chin upward. "Do you actually want to be the official Mrs. Synder?"Looking at his mocking gaze and listening to his icy tone, Everly felt relieved that she didn't say that. She would just be making a fool of herself. "That's not it. I just want to quit. The agreement we signed was for three years. There are only a few more months left. It'll be alm
Chapter 946
Everly had plans to leave and wanted to be prepared. She had been moving her money in secret. She would move small amounts every time. She would also cash the money out through a third party or transfer some to her parents. Her savings account was shrinking because she was afraid Henry would freeze the account in a fit of rage. Henry was generous. He transferred three million dollars to Olivia. Everly smiled bitterly. She was worth so much money. Henry paid three million dollars to spend one night with her. Henry had always had a high sex drive. He had already taken her body measurements when he promoted her. He even tested her for a bit before making a move on her. He looked like a gentleman on the surface, but only Everly knew how vulgar he actually was. He was like the devil. Henry hadn't done it with her ever since she got pregnant. So, it had been several months. He placed her on the bed anxiously. Everly was a little uneasy. "I haven't showered …""You can do t
