Before daybreak, Olivia and Jeff were sent away. Even Olivia had no idea where they would be taken.When they arrived, she found herself in an old courtyard. She thought for a moment, realizing that Ethan didn't own a house like his under his name.By the looks of it, for security purposes, Ethan had found a safe place. No one would've guessed that she was here.Jeff was quite fond of this place. It looked a lot like the Fordham residence.Getting out of the car, Jeff stood up and walked a few steps without his cane.When Olivia saw that, she went forward to help him. "Careful, Dad."A happy look flashed across Jeff's amicable face. "Olivia, I can walk by myself now.""Yes, Dad. We're not in a hurry, so take your time. Don't trip and fall."Olivia felt fulfilled when she saw Jeff getting better by the day. When his condition had stabilized, she could ask him about the truth back then.Every night, she went to sleep with thoughts of those secrets in her heart. Even in her d

Olivia was not the only person refusing to give him the phone all this time. Ethan did the same thing, too. Jeff could guess an inkling of the situation from that.After all, he was a grown man, not a three-year-old kid. She hurriedly said, "Dad, some things did happen while you were in a coma. I'm planning to tell you about it one by one after you recover."His fingers trembled when he heard that. "I knew that something bad had happened. I woke up, and your hand is disabled! Your relationship with Ethan is bad as well. What happened?"Noticing his vehement emotions, she quickly helped him to sit. "Dad, look. This is why I didn't wanna tell you. It's nothing big. I had a fight with him because of some matters. "Didn't you see him begging me for forgiveness the whole day? If it was a serious matter, we would've parted ways already."Only then he was able to keep his cool. "You're right. Ethan keeps promising me that he won't let you down. So, what happened between the two

Chris, who couldn't bring himself to set the plan into motion, attempted to persuade Ethan."Mr. Miller, they are two little babies. It is not easy for a mother to give birth to a new life. I think …"The insensible Calvin finally noticed something was off as he asked, "Chris, what are you guys talking about?"Losing his patience, Ethan stood up and left. "Schedule for a surgery."Calvin grabbed Chris' hand. "Chris, tell me, what is the surgery for?""It's performed when the pregnant mother is over four weeks pregnant. What do you think it is for?" Chris sighed before following Ethan, leaving Calvin behind.Questions flooded Calvin's head as he thought, "Why? Doesn't Mr. Miller love her? Why does he want an abortion?"And a pair of twins at that! Olivia clearly doesn't know anything about this. She even texted me in secret to ask for help."As a friend, he couldn't bring himself to watch Olivia lose her babies.He fished his phone out, wanting to call her.But someone took hi

The call was terminated. Olivia had no other options. She knew Ethan like the back of her hand, and so did Ethan. He had been trying to make her put her guard down.It was not that she had been lying to Ethan, but it was the other way round!Henry might have already informed Ethan about it. She must escape from here!Mona happened to enter the restroom to look for Olivia. "Olivia, what's taking you so long? The doctor is waiting.""I'm not going to take the checkup, Mona. We must leave right now.""Why? Don't you have other checkups to take?"Olivia held Mona's hand, pulling her out of the restroom. "I can't explain everything to you now. But we can't stay here. It's dangerous."Mona couldn't follow. "How so? We have the bodyguards with us. I'll call Mr. Miller to let him handle the issue.""Silly you. He's the biggest danger." Olivia ran out while holding Mona's hand.Mona persuaded her, "Wait. You haven't reached 12 weeks of pregnancy yet, so you cannot do any extreme exer

Olivia gazed at Ethan in despair. "Ethan, these two babies are the only people I have. I have nothing. I have no one else. "If you don't believe my words today, you can wait until the labor—no—we can take a DNA test when I'm at least 16 weeks pregnant.""You're getting more and more mischievous, Liv. You never lied to me in the past. Let's not discuss if you're willing to abort the babies or not. "Once the babies mature, an abortion will have dire effects on your body. I consulted with the doctor. "Taking an abortion now will have the minimum impact on your body."He gently comforted her, "How could you say that you have nothing and no one else? Dad's showing improvement each day. "It'll take two years at most before he becomes as healthy as before. He will be able to handle the Fordham family again."If Marina is making you insecure, I can tell you that she's purely an obligation of mine. You're the person I love all along."He caressed her cheek. "You're still young. You
