After a round of communications, they decided to leave that very night. There were a total of 352 security cameras on the island. Olivia had marked them down some time ago. It wouldn't be hard for her to avoid all of them. She reached the coastline under the hill with ease while bringing her children along. When the sea breeze blew toward them, Everly shuddered. This was where Olivia buried the bodies she dissected. There were at least 30 to 50 bodies buried in the area. Even the wind felt eerily chilly to her. She also felt a chill go down her spine. For that reason, most of the maids never came here. It was the perfect spot for running away. Everly lowered her voice and said, "I'm starting to think you did this on purpose. You've become very cunning, Liv.""I've failed too many times. I really don't want to fail this time.""Mom, where are we going?""Don't you miss your godfather? We're going to meet him now." Jack was already waiting for them. The children ran toward
Ethan's entire body was trembling. The image of Kurt's death appeared in his mind again. The blood that flowed from his chest had covered Ethan's hands and eyes. Impossible! "It c-can't be Kurt. He died in my arms. I'm sure of that."The bullet hit Kurt in his heart. He was a dead man. Ethan stared at the mask and said, "It's Jack. If my speculation is correct, Kurt had a twin brother. He must be Kurt's twin.""Oh my god. What a weird turn of events. Kurt actually had a brother? Why didn't we know about that?""That's a problem for the Stone family. Mobilize the men on the island. Stop them!" Ethan muttered, "I'm sorry, Liv."He had planned to let her go, but Jack's identity was too mysterious. If he was really Kurt's brother, Ethan couldn't just let him roam freely. Suddenly, the alarm on the island started blaring. Everly started to feel nervous. She almost fell off the boat. She had an anxious expression on her face. "How did they realize we're missing so quickly?
As soon as the boat reached shore, Jack quickly took the children from Olivia and said urgently, "Quick! Follow me!"Olivia held Everly's hand as they got on the island. They followed Jack to a tunnel that he had dug beforehand. "Although they won't be able to find us for now, we can't just stay hidden down here. Won't we be trapped when they surround the island?"Jack's forehead was covered in sweat. He said in a deep voice, "If my calculations are correct, they'll have the people from one helicopter come to look for us while the other helicopter remains on standby. This type of helicopter only has enough fuel for three hours of flight."It'll take them some time to get people to surround the island. With the people they have on the island now, it'd be impossible to find us in the darkness like this. We just need to wait for two hours."Everly looked at him with admiration. "What's your name, Mister? You're so smart. You've thought of everything.""Jack," he replied emotionle
The two children came over to look at Olivia with tender expressions on their faces. "Mom!""I …"Olivia panted softly as she lay in Everly's arms. It was like she was completely exhausted. Everly's expression turned grave. "Liv, you've never been nauseous from dissecting before. Just out of curiosity, you haven't been sleeping with Ethan, right? Your symptoms … seem to indicate you're pregnant."Olivia's expression froze. She had taken care of Ethan a few days ago, but they didn't actually do it. And the time doesn't match. Unless …She thought about that night back on the cruise ship. She had sex with Logan for the entire night. She had Joshua buy morning-after pills for her the next day when they arrived in Aldenvine. She couldn't have gotten pregnant from that. "No, I can't be pregnant. I took the pills." Olivia's hands were shaking. "Pills? Liv, you do know that morning-after pills aren't 100% effective, right? Have you had your period yet?"Olivia did some quick calc
Olivia was completely surprised to see Colin. She was so excited she didn't know what to say. "Why are you here, Colin?""Olivia, it was so hard to track you down. I'm only able to see you because Jack contacted me.""Yeah, the past few years have been eventful, to say the least," Olivia said emotionally. "How has your cancer been?"Olivia took off her wig and said, "I almost succumbed to the cancer in the first six months of the year. I only managed to pull through with the pills you left me and chemotherapy. "The side effects of chemotherapy have subsided a lot. My hair has started to grow again, but the tumor is still there."Everly couldn't help but feel bad when she saw Olivia's short hair. "You've been through so much, Liv.""It's all in the past now. I was on my deathbed, but I survived. Colin, I heard you've been researching anti-cancer drugs. Have there been any developments?""Olivia, I'm here to cure you."Olivia's eyes lit up when she heard that. She felt lik
Colin's lips twitched as he looked at the twins beside Olivia. "You're telling me … that you're pregnant again?"Olivia was a little embarrassed. Connor was the only baby she planned for. She didn't even have a sex life after that. The twins were conceived while Ethan had a high fever and was barely conscious. This newest pregnancy was even more ridiculous …The doctors said it would be hard for her to get pregnant, but she got pregnant both times she had sex. "I've been feeling nauseous. It's a lot like the morning sickness I used to have. I'm afraid that …""Alright, let's do an ultrasound first. We can do that in this town. But we can't do a magnetic resonance imaging procedure. Let's do the ultrasound first to determine if you're pregnant. The cancer treatment will have to wait until we get to our next stop.""Okay. I'll do whatever you say."On the way to their destination, Olivia had a gloomy expression on her face. Back then, everyone told her she should've aborted th
Everly was drinking when Olivia said that. She immediately spat it out. "W-What? Ethan's not the father?"Everly scanned her surroundings before whispering, "I didn't know you had it in you! You're quite the player. Who's the father? "Is it the masked man or the cute young man? Both seem to care for you genuinely. They won't hurt you as Ethan did."Olivia was feeling conflicted. "Neither of them …""Liv, you're being a stranger. I even told you how long Henry lasts each time, yet you don't tell me anything."Olivia was rendered speechless. She didn't even want to know about that, but Everly told her about it anyway. "It's a long story.""Then, cut to the chase." A hint of excitement flashed in Everly's eyes. She was clearly in the mood for gossip. Olivia wasn't able to win an argument with Everly, so she ended up telling her about what happened. Everly fell silent after hearing what happened. Even someone as chatty as her didn't have the words to describe how she felt.
Henry wasn't the only person that was angry. Ethan was fuming as well. Jack had already gotten away from his men for a week. He still hadn't received any updates. Ethan didn't harbor any ill will against Jack before he knew his true identity. But he had uncovered Jack's true identity in the past few days. Jack was Kurt's twin brother. He was born in very bad conditions and was at risk of dying at any moment. A psychic had told his family that he must be hidden from the public eye and needed to be kept at a church for protection.That was why the Stone family only ever made Kurt known to the public. Not even Ethan knew about Jack's existence. Kelvin sighed. "That's so crazy. The psychic said only one of the Stone family's twins would live. They thought the weak and fragile Jack would be the one who passed. But Kurt's the one who ended up dead."No wonder Kurt had all those mysterious visits to the church. We thought he went to pray, but he actually went to visit his brother. "
