After getting home, Olivia checked on the trackers again. The one that had gone into the landfill had disappeared from the display. But the others hadn't changed much from before.Jack's phone was still turned off. Olivia sighed.She was getting closer to the truth, but the path ahead was covered in fog. No matter how hard she tried to clear things up, nothing changed.Fortunately, the project was progressing smoothly. Her proposal passed the other company's screening, and they would have a meeting with her soon.Donned in a formal outfit, her palms were sweating a little.Opening the door, she smiled politely. "Hello, I'm Olivia Fordham from Miller Group."A youth in a white suit sat at the table. His features were exquisite, and there was a smile on his face. "We meet again, Olivia."Olivia was stunned. "Colin."She finally realized what this meant. "So you're Mr. Moriarty, the general manager of Peak Group?""Yes. I just took over the business from my father." Colin shrugge

In the hospital, Jeff was lying on the hospital bed as always. Every day, he survived on nutrient solutions and various equipment.His body had weakened at a noticeable rate. His limbs had begun to shrink.He was like a flower that had lost its vigor and was clinging to the last bits of nutrients in the soil. He was barely hanging on.Olivia hadn't visited him in a while. Every time she saw her father like this, she would feel even worse.Jeff's face was already sunken. Olivia's tears dripped onto the back of his dry hand."Dad …"She wished that a miracle would happen one day, and Jeff would wake up and look at her. She yearned for just a glance from him, and maybe a few words too."Don't be sad, Olivia."Colin patted her gently on the back. Olivia lowered her head, not wanting anyone to see her at her weakest moments.Sobbing, Olivia covered her face. When she looked up again, she saw Colin listening to Jeff's heartbeat with a stethoscope."Colin?"Putting the stethoscope

Olivia smiled. It was an extremely mocking smile.She pried Ethan's fingers off her. "Mr. Miller, I've never wanted anything from you. I can even let go of the title of Mrs. Miller without any issues."Under Ethan's gleaming gaze, Olivia smiled faintly. She said calmly, "In the past, I thought that nothing could rival you. But then I stood still, waiting."I waited as leaves budded, then cicadas started crying in the summer. The leaves then turned yellow in fall, and lastly, the wind began to howl in winter."I couldn't wait any longer, so I had no choice but to drag my tired body forward. Then, I realized something."The spring breeze, the summer cicadas, the leaves in the fall, and even the winter snow …. All those things are better than you."She lifted her hands, her slender fingers touching the face she used to love with all her heart."Ethan, I admit that I haven't completely forgotten about you. Maybe I won't be able to wipe you from memory even after many years."You'll

As soon as Olivia entered Team C's office, everyone greeted her enthusiastically.Seeing this, Olivia felt that it was quite amusing. If they knew that she no longer had a backer, would they still be smiling so brightly?Even Sophia didn't mind her taking on the project alone. Patting her shoulder, Sophia said, "Give it your all, Olivia!"Norma hastily pulled Olivia to the side. In a deserted place, she reported her findings to Olivia."Ms. Fordham, Jackson hung out with a woman from his department last night. He had a lot of fun.""And?"Norma replied, "Fortunately, I'm quite close to that woman. She helped me ask him a few questions."Jackson said that you look pretty and have a nice figure. Your skin is great too. He said that one day, he would … Well ..."She didn't relay the indecent words that came after that.Norma concluded, "Other than that, Jackson doesn't have any grudges against you. He didn't behave as if he knew you before this."Olivia frowned. "Then the photos

Olivia couldn't understand what Chloe was thinking. She didn't know why Chloe abandoned her and went overseas back then.She had been gone for many years. Now that she had come back, shouldn't she make it up to her poor daughter?If Chloe ruined Olivia's reputation, it would have a bad effect on her reputation as a mother too. What was she trying to do?Chloe was stunned for a moment. Then, she became even fiercer. "Olivia, I told you to be a blameless person. Aren't you scared of the consequences when you do these things?"Blood was oozing out of Olivia's clenched fists. "Why should I be scared? She's the one who should be scared …"Before she could finish speaking, a calm man's voice rang out. "Mrs. Carlton, the CEO wishes to see you two."News of this incident had already reached the CEO's office. Brent, who was standing respectfully at the side, led the two away.Olivia lowered her head, staring at Chloe's back. The sight wasn't much different from what she remembered. She
