Ch. 1531..1540

Even After Death Chapter 1531-Sean found Olivia's name to be familiar. When Quinn went missing, everyone in the family searched for a long time. In the end, it was Avery who brought her body back.

He also told them that Olivia was the one who helped him find her. Back then, he had only heard of Olivia's name. He hadn't seen her before.

He had planned to express his gratitude to her, but then, he got news of her passing.

He had no contact with her and had only heard about her from Avery. After that, he got into a traffic accident himself and didn’t have the energy to care about this matter anymore.

Hearing that name again after so long stirred his emotions a little.

It's you. You were the one who found Quinn and saved US a lot of trouble. We may never have found her without your help. You told me you were indebted to Avery, but it's our family that's indebted to you. "You're too kind, Mr. Sean. I barely did anything."

Olivia didn't try to get acknowledgment for her efforts.

"You should be tired after such a long trip, Mr. Sean. You can chat with Mr.

Fordham for now. We'll begin the operation tonight. We have to do it as soon as possible, lest an accident occurs. ""Okay."""

Olivia was here to look for Louis. She could perform the surgery herself, but Louis was way more skilled than her.

The Fordhams weren't the same as Marina. All Marina needed was the ability to walk again. It didn't matter if she got lesser parts.

Olivia had a soft spot for the Fordhams. She didn't know if it was because they shared the same last name, but she wanted the best for Sean.

The best way to do that was to bring Sean to Louis and have Louis be the primary surgeon.

She went to the lab, but Louis was nowhere to be seen. Then, she noticed a robot approaching her.

Nine, where's Mr. Rivera?

Louis' robots were the most advanced in the world. They looked extremely lifelike.

The robot's skin looked exactly like a real human's. There were visible spots on the skin and faint dark circles under the eyes. The way it spoke was very natural.

These seemingly normal humans were completely harmless only when they were with Olivia. They would have shot at anyone else in an instant.

Ms. Fordham, the boss has gone into the mountain. We don't have clearance to go there. "Thanks."

Olivia rushed to the mountain. This was Louis' new base of operations.

Olivia used to think that his obsession came from within. But she didn't actually know where the obsession came from.

Louis seemed to be doing some important research in the years she was gone.

A group of robots approached her as she got closer to the mountain. Their eyes glowed red as they scanned her.

Intruder alert. Halt. "She's boss' student. Disengage weapons."

She had questions, but she wasn't dumb enough to attempt to rush inside.

Can you inform Mr. Rivera that I'm back and have something urgent to talk to him about?

Even After Death Chapter 1532-Louis showed up after a short while. He seemed to be happy to see Olivia.

You're back, Elise.

He hugged her joyfully. He was like a kind uncle.

Mr. Rivera, you've built such a huge building on the mountain. What kind of research is going on in there? "Dear child, you'll find out when it's time for your transformation."

Olivia's intuition told her that Louis was hiding a huge secret. But she couldn't force it out of him if he was unwilling to share.

Mr. Rivera, can you help a friend of mine with an operation?

Louis was a very important man. Even the richest men in the world had to wait in line for his services. He was also obsessed with research. So, he was rarely in the mood to treat patients.

Even so, he needed a lot of money to fund his research, so he couldn't turn down everyone who came to ask for treatment.

Back then, his address got exposed, which caused people to line up at his door for treatment. That was why he built a new base that didn’t tell anyone about it.

Even Olivia didn't know about it before he brought her to the base.

He could focus on his research on this base, and he didn’t need to provide treatment for any patients.

He would not entertain requests from anyone else, but Olivia was different.

He agreed to her request immediately.

Sure, I don’t mind.

He pinched her cheek. "This face doesn't look good at all."

Louis tore the mask off and revealed Olivia’s face. He stared at her face meaningfully.

That's how it should be.

Olivia didn't know if she was seeing things, but he seemed to have a complicated look as he stared at her.

But the emotions didn't seem like that of a man toward a woman, but rather that of an older family member to a child.

There was love and some other emotions.

She thought about it and realized that Louis was very cold toward her at first.

His attitude changed drastically after she became his student.

To other people, he had a weird temper, was ruthless, and was known as the Mad Doctor. But he had never said no to Olivia. 1 She was his test subject, but he never locked up her. He wasn't even angry when she escaped six months ago.

She had heard rumors that he used to have another student. That person was twisted. Louis once said he would never accept another student, but he took her in.

Olivia had always thought Louis had been giving her special treatment.

What are you thinking about? "Nothing. It's just that I feel like you're…"

Olivia didn't know how to describe what she was feeling. In the past, she felt fear toward him. She was afraid he was going to make her a cyborg.

She thought it would take some effort to convince him to operate on Sean, but he agreed without even asking a question.

What's wrong? Did someone pick on you? Louis was a little annoyed to see her being so hesitant.

Olivia shook her head. "That's not it. I just feel like you're very good to me."

Sean told Avery about what had happened recently.

I don't blame you. I just want you to get better. I've already lost Quinn. I can't lose you again.

Even After Death Chapter 1533-Putting their status as scions of the Fordham family aside, the two brothers were still leaders in their fields.

Looking at each other, one was crippled and stuck in the past while the other had been haunted by his kidney disease for years.

Both of them were tormented by their circumstances.

Avery hugged Sean. "It's all my fault. None of you would've been dragged into this mess if I had realized something was wrong sooner."

Everyone thought it was just an accident when Quinn went missing. None of them thought one of their own was responsible.

Avery, who do you think it could be? Troy, Vox, or Jacqueline? "They're our closest family, our kin. I don't think they would be the ones. I've focused my attention on looking into our cousins, nephews, and other relatives.

They have a more plausible motive. If something happens to US, they'll have a chance to inherit our family's fortune! "Then, did you find anything?" "I have some leads, but I can't risk alerting the enemy yet. Don't worry. I'll never let the people who hurt our family off the hook." "Avery, if Troy and the others aren't suspects, won't they be in danger? Shouldn't we warn them? Especially Jacqueline, who's about to be engaged. I really hope nothing happens to her."

We should warn them, but…

Avery was unwilling to believe that the culprit was among them, but he never found any definitive proof. That was why he didn't want to alert anyone unnecessarily.

You don't know for sure, do you, Avery?

Avery sighed. "Yeah. The culprit is very meticulous. The slightest bit of movement might cause suspicion. That's why I've gone into hiding for the past six months.

It's better if fewer people know about this. I'm afraid that the culprit might be alerted if we warn them. It would ruin our plans. "Don't worry, Mr. Fordham. I already have a plan. I'll be able to capture Ginger soon."

Olivia walked toward the Fordham brothers from a distance. This was the first time Sean had ever seen her real face.

He was stunned. "Your… Your face…" "I'm sorry, Mr. Sean. I used a made-up identity to approach you because I had to keep myself hidden. This is my real face."

Sean muttered, "You do look like Jacqueline." "Back then, I decided to help because you look like my sister and we share the same last name. If I wasn't sure that my mother only gave birth to US, I'd think you were one of US." 2 Avery added, "I found it hard to believe that two people who looked so alike existed."

Olivia scratched her head. "I was stunned when I saw Ms. Jacqueline too.

We do look alike." "Maybe it was fate. I helped you because of your looks, and you helped me too. And now, you're helping Sean. It's such a magical thing.

Back then, I felt a sense of familiarity when I saw you. If you don't mind, Olivia, the Fordham family would love to adopt you after this incident is over.

If you don’t mind, we can be your family from now on.

Olivia could not refuse anymore, so she agreed, "Okay."

She had wanted siblings for the longest time.

My dear sister, Olivia, Sean said.

Even After Death Chapter 1534-Olivia felt a little embarrassed. "It isn't official yet." "It's fine. You'll be my sister sooner or later. I'm so happy to have another sister."

Sean patted her on the head.

Olivia was excited that she suddenly had two brothers. "Am I really good enough?"

She knew how prestigious the Fordham family was in Zelotria. It felt surreal that she had become part of their family.

The Fordham brothers smiled at her warmly.

We're overjoyed to have a sister like you. The only thing is you’ll have to hold out until this matter is behind US. Then, we'll officially accept you into the family.

The three of them looked at one another and smiled. There was a very obvious dimple on Sean's left cheek when he smiled. It reminded Olivia of the dimples on her children's faces. 1 Maybe they were really meant to be a family.

Sean was wheeled into the operating room by an assistant robot at night.

He was stunned when he was told that these people were actually robots.

He knew a little about robotics. He knew it was incredibly hard to get a robot to look so life-like.

Olivia was also wearing scrubs. It was an honor for her to be able to observe Louis at work.

Don't worry, Sean. Mr. Rivera is a great doctor.

Sean smiled. "You've mentioned that your teacher is skilled. I never thought he would be the famed Louis Rivera."

He was incredibly lucky to have Louis operate on him. It was almost a guaranteed success.

Sean was impressed by how great Louis was, especially after seeing those incredibly life-like robots.

Yeah, Mr. Rivera is the best, Olivia said with pride.

Louis was wearing scrubs and a pair of glasses. He looked even more handsome and elegant.

Mr. Rivera, I'm ready. "Okay, you can observe at the side. I'll be using the most advanced metallic frame for him. It's even harder than bones." "Your equipment is the best, Mr. Rivera." "I'll use the best ones on you in the future.” Olivia felt a chill down her spine. Louis was still obsessed with her.

Sean was confused. "In the future? What will you do to Olivia in the future?"

Let's begin, Mr. Rivera. "Very well."

The operation they were about to perform was way harder than the one performed on Marina. Marina had her legs amputated, while Sean was going to keep his skin as his bones were swapped out.

The results had to look good while not affecting practicality. It was very hard.

This was a great opportunity for Olivia to learn since she wasn't very knowledgeable about this field.

The operation was a success. Louis was a great teacher. He deliberately slowed down his pace to explain every step to Olivia.

It was already midnight when Sean was wheeled out of the operating room.

"That's great! Olivia, thank you so much,” Avery said excitedly.

Then, he hugged Olivia in excitement. Sean's legs had been troubling him for a long time.

It's getting late, Avery. You're still unwell, so you shouldn't stay up. Get some rest."""

She had a dream-a dream about someone so familiar but so distant.

She only remembered that the woman in her dream was the deceased Quinn Fordham.

Even After Death Chapter 1535-Olivia's back was soaked in sweat when she woke up. The dream was quite surreal. She felt the cold sweat on her forehead.

She had only seen Quinn in photos and had never met her in person. But the dream she had seemed very realistic.

Quinn's smile was so gentle. She didn't look like a dead person in the dream.

She was like a kind older sister.

Olivia sighed heavily. If Quinn were still alive, she would be 29 years old. It was so unfair. She was such a talented young woman, but she died such a gruesome death. 1 Then, she heard the melody of a flute. Olivia freshened up before she exited the room.

Sean was holding a flute while he looked at Willow, who was playing her flute, with a tender expression.

It was a very peaceful image, and Sean looked like his condition had improved too.

Olivia asked gently, "Avery, how are you holding up?" "I lived through it. Louis said I'm the most successful herb-imbued person after you."

Olivia was overjoyed. "That means you're saved!" "For the time being. It's too early to be celebrating. If my recovery goes well, I'll be able to get a transplant once we find a kidney." "That's great!" Olivia was very happy for him.

It was like how she was saved all those years ago.

Sean saw that Olivia had arrived. He stopped playing his flute and greeted her, "Hi, Olivia." "How are your legs, Sean?" "They still hurt a little, but the robot assistant checked them for me and told me they're fine." "It's normal to feel some pain for a week. The pain is a sign that the surgery is a success. It would be bad if there were no pain.

But you still have to go through with rehabilitation. That will speed up your recovery. In the early stages, you shouldn't remain standing for too long even if you can stand.” Thanks, Olivia."

They had just acknowledged each other as family yesterday, but the familiarity they felt for each other was very natural.

Sean rested on the island for a week until the condition of his legs improved. He would do rehabilitation exercises every day. His previously shrunken calves were slowly recovering.

He stood on the beach and looked into the distance. No one could understand the suffering he had gone through in the past few years.

We have to go back now, Avery.

She had a feeling that the truth would soon be revealed.

Jacqueline rushed over to meet them as Olivia wheeled Sean toward the villa.

She said anxiously, "Sean, where did you go? I couldn't get through to your phone or track you down. Do you know how worried I was?"

Sean smiled. "Sorry to worry you, Jacqueline. I was out on a trip with Susie."

Even After Death Chapter 1536-Jacqueline was stunned. She had thought it was ridiculous when Reginald told her about it. Sean had a prestigious background. He should have high standards.

The woman before her had a decent figure and nice skin, but her facial features were plain. The most important thing was that she had a child!

Was Sean insane? Or did this woman somehow brainwash him?

Jacqueline had thought that Olivia had some tricks up her sleeve. Things had already turned out like this before she could intervene.

Sean, are… are you joking? Jacqueline smiled awkwardly.

Olivia took Sean's arm and said gently, "Ms. Jacqueline, we're really in love with each other. He doesn't mind that I was married before, and I don't mind that his legs are crippled.” "Besides, Willow is a very well-mannered child and has a talent for music. I think she's a great kid." Sean patted Olivia's arm with a smile.

He looked at Jacqueline's shocked expression and asked, "Is there something wrong, Jacqueline?" "I just feel like you're moving too fast. You've only known each other for such a short time. Marriage is a very serious thing. You…"

Sean smiled. "Jacqueline, don't you want me to be happy? Dr. Fordham was the one who helped me out of the slump I was in. Why are you unsatisfied?" "I'm happy that you've found someone. I just thought you were still in love with Ginger." "She has already passed on, but I'm still alive. It's time for me to move on.” Olivia nudged him. "Sean…" "I get it. It’s all in the past. I still have you guys."

Sean turned around and looked at Jacqueline. "We're tired from the trip. We'll go up to our room to rest. Thanks for coming to see me. Don't worry, I won't think about taking my own life ever again.

I'll tell the others about me and Dr. Fordham too. I'll bring Dr. Fordham and Willow to the Fordham residence in a couple of days. "Sean, aren't you rushing things along too much? You…" "Jacqueline, I'm already 33 years old. I'm no longer young. I've wasted so many years of my life. From now on, I just want to take back what I've lost." "Sean, aren't you worried that Ginger would be sad if she's watching over us? She died because of you!"

Sean shook his head. "You don't know what happened back then. She was the one who wanted to break up with me and go overseas. If I hadn't gone looking for her, I wouldn't have gotten into a traffic accident.

"She's the one who owes me. Besides, it's been so long since she passed.

The living shouldn't be bound by the dead. Alright, Jacqueline, I’m tired."

Olivia spoke up, "Ms. Jacqueline, I'll be turning in with Sean. Feel free to make yourself at home."

Then, she wheeled Sean away.

As soon as they entered the room, Sean clutched his chest. "Olivia, Jacqueline can't possibly be the culprit. We don't have to pretend in front of her, right?"

"Sean, don't forget that the culprit is sure to have spies in the villa. We have to keep it up no matter who we're with.”

Instead, it seemed like she felt anxious because her plans were disrupted.

Maybe she might surprise US."""

Willow had told her that there was a curse on Jacqueline. It was better to err on the side of caution.

How?

Even After Death Chapter 1537-Olivia gave Sean a mysterious smile. "We'll see."

To make their act more convincing, Olivia stayed in Sean's room while she was staying in the house. She and Willow took the bed while Sean stayed in the study connected to the room.

Jacqueline was stunned to see them staying in the same room. Things were going too quickly.

She returned to her villa angrily. As soon as she entered the villa, a man came up to her and gave her a big hug.

Why are you home so late? Do you only care about Sean? What about me?

She pushed the man away. Then, she lit a cigarette and said, "Get away from me. I'm not in the mood." "You're so heartless. You're so well-behaved when you're with other people, but you're so bad-tempered when you're with me. Is it because you know I love you?

Did that Dr. Fordham anger you again? I told you to take her out, but you insisted on being needlessly compassionate.

Jacqueline was also feeling regretful. Avery refused to tell her his location. She had a bad feeling about it. She felt Avery had already started his investigation.

That was why she stayed her hand. She didn't want to risk alerting everyone, but that one mistake only led to more mistakes.

I can't believe Sean fell for that doctor. "Really? She's very plain-looking, isn't she? Didn't you say she has a kid?

Has Sean lost his mind?"

Jacqueline was at a loss for words. This development was completely unexpected.

I think he didn't just break his legs. His eyes went blind too. "You don't have to be so worked up. Sean's legs are crippled. So what if he falls for a woman? He'll never be a threat. Also, the woman's just a regular doctor. She's not someone of equal status. She won't be a threat to you either." "No. Sean has completely changed since the trip. He's no longer depressed and has become more assertive.

Don't forget the fact that he'll always be a scion of the Fordham family as long as he's alive. This will never change. "Since you're so concerned, I'll get someone to get rid of that woman for you."

Jacqueline grabbed his hand. "You can't make a move on her. I've received news that Avery's assistant has been investigating something in secret even though Avery is still away. We're at a crucial point of the plan. We have to be more cautious." "And just leave that woman be?" "No. There's someone who hates her more than me. I have a plan."

The man shifted his gaze. "You mean Ginger?" "That's right. She has always been in love with Sean. What will she do if she finds out he's about to marry another woman?"

Jacqueline's gaze grew cold. "Sean, don't blame me for this. Why didn't you adhere to my plan and stay idle? Things are about to change in the Fordham family." "Don't worry. We've been preparing for this for a very long time. We'll succeed."

The man patted her head gently. "No matter what happens, I'll make your dreams come true. I love you, Jacqueline."

His words of comfort didn't make Jacqueline feel any better. Instead, her anxiety grew.

Even After Death Chapter 1538-Sean told the rest of the family about Olivia the following morning. He was going to bring her back to the Fordham Residence.

He called Olivia over and said, "The Fordham family is massive. We have a hand in multiple industries. The main family used to be quite lively and had been steadily growing.

"Things started to go downhill after Avery was diagnosed with kidney disease.

Troy is almost never home, and Vox is even more elusive. After Quinn's death and my traffic accident, Jacqueline was the one keeping US afloat. ""What about your parents?"" ""The family's business is just too massive. My father is already very busy with managing our assets in other countries."

My mother sustained some injuries when she gave birth to Jacqueline. She's been resting and barely ever goes out these days. I didn't even tell her about my suicide attempts because I worry it might affect her health.

Sean sighed. "It's just a family gathering today. There aren't a lot of outsiders.

You don't have to be nervous."

Olivia smiled. "Our goal is to draw the culprit out of hiding. I'm not actually meeting my in-laws. Of course, I won't be nervous." "That's right. That slipped my mind. Reginald told my mother about you, and she was very happy."

Olivia could guess how sad his mother would be since she had lost a child and had to see another one getting crippled. 1 She was sure to be happy if her son was able to break away from the past and move on.

Sean, other than going to the gathering to uncover the truth, I can also take a look at your mother's condition. "That's true. How could I have forgotten that you're a great doctor? Olivia, I'll leave my mother in your hands. She'll be very happy to see you. Also, she'll be your godmother from now on. So, she's not just 'my mother'."

Olivia had already seen how exceptional the children of the Fordham family were. She figured that their mother would also be a very outstanding individual.

So, Olivia had prepared gifts for her in advance.

As she was getting in the car with Willow, she reminded her, "From now on, we'll be in a dangerous situation. You have to be careful, Willow."

Willow patted Olivia's hand and stared at her tenderly as if saying, "I'll protect you, Mom."

Olivia felt warm. She was the mother, and Willow was just a three-year-old child.

Such a young child was telling her she would protect her.

Every time she gave birth to one of her children, her life was at risk. But she took the risk and gave birth to her babies.

She felt like that was her duty as a mother, and her efforts weren't in vain. All of her children cared deeply for her.

Good girl, Olivia said as she held Willow tightly in her arms.

Once again, she felt great relief that she didn't give up on Willow because of her condition.

Olivia, you're so close with your daughter, Sean said.

If I find the person behind it all, I'll make him wish he was dead!

Even After Death Chapter 1539-They drove to the lake in the western suburban area. The gorgeous scenery was visible from quite some distance away.

The gentle breeze blew on the fields as birds flew overhead in a flock.

There were also lotuses on the lake.

The sky was clear, and the water was rippling gently. Some petals scattered by the lakeside added a touch of elegance to the view.

This place is so pretty. "Yeah. Mom's very sickly, so she can only stay in quiet places to rest. This is a nice place, which helps improve her mood."

Before they got out of the car, there was already a group of housekeepers in uniform waiting for them.

When the car came to a stop, a middle-aged butler opened the door. He said politely, "You're finally home, Mr. Sean."

This palace wasn't actually his home. The Fordham residence was in the middle of the city. It wasn't the best place for his mother to stay.

The Fordham siblings weren't that attached to this place, but that wasn't important. Their home was where their parents were.

It was even more true for wealthy families like theirs. The parents were the foundation that held the family together. Wherever they were was where the family’s roots were.

Nice to see you, Ms. Patch. "I’m glad you're in high spirits, Mr. Sean."

Nina Patch had been working for Shana for many years. She was a very considerate person. She was also someone who had been there since the siblings were just kids. They respected her a lot.

The housekeepers took the wheelchair out as Olivia got out of the car with Willow.

Ms. Patch, this is Dr. Fordham and Willow. "I heard about them on the phone.

She's done our family a great favor. Dr. Fordham, let's talk when we're inside.

Madam Fordham has been waiting for some time." "Sure."

Olivia thought Nina would be bothered by her identity, but that wasn't the case.

She could only see gratitude in Nina's eyes.

This was how a person who truly cared about Sean would react, unlike Jacqueline. The more Olivia thought about Jacqueline, the more she found her to be suspicious.

Although this was a place for healing, it was clear a lot of effort was put into maintaining it.

The place was filled with all sorts of flowers. Olivia stood still as she noticed a blue flower in the yard.

This is a desert lily. 1 "That's right."

Olivia always had a keen eye for plants. "I seem to recall that these flowers are found in the desert and are known as the flowers of life. Water can be found wherever it blooms. A desert tribe even uses it as their emblem." "That's right.

It's because this flower is a sign of good fortune. Jacqueline went through a lot of trouble to get the flower here." "This is Jacqueline’s doing too?" "Yeah. She cares about everyone in the family. Why?” Olivia swallowed the questions she wanted to ask. "Nothing. I just feel like she's very considerate."

Everyone Olivia met praised Jacqueline. She was like a perfect angel sent from heaven.

As they were talking, someone suddenly called out, "Sean, have you come home?"

When he heard the voice, Sean quickly turned around. "Mom."

Be careful, Madam Fordham.

Olivia felt a weird emotion bubbling within her when she saw Shana.

Even After Death Chapter 1540-Olivia looked at the woman before her. Shana was wearing a plain cotton dress, and her hair was in a ponytail.

She didn’t have any makeup on, but she looked very young. She didn't seem like a woman her age at all. Instead, she looked like she was in her mid-30s.

Her eyes were clouded, like pearls that had been covered in dust.

"Madam Fordham worries about you and your siblings every day. She shed many tears for you all, and eventually, her eyes became like this.

Fortunately, you were able to overcome your depression, Mr. Sean. That's good news for Madam Fordham. ""Sean, let me take a look at you."" ""Mom, I'm here."""

Sean tugged at her dress.

Shana bent down and caressed his face like she did when he was a child.

My dear Sean is all grown up now. It's a pity that I can't see you clearly anymore.

She could only see the outline of his face. Everything else looked like a blur to her.

Why didn't you tell me sooner? Sean asked emotionally as he grabbed her hand.

Madam Fordham knows you've been depressed. She didn't want to trouble you any further, so she told me to keep it a secret. Ms. Jacqueline is the only one who knows. "Even Dad doesn't know?" "That's right. Mr. Fordham has been too busy in the past six months. He doesn't even have time to visit Madam Fordham." "Alright. Let's not talk about this anymore. Didn't you say you brought a friend home today, Sean?"

Shana turned her gaze toward Olivia's direction.

Olivia was deep in thought about what Nina said. Jacqueline's name was brought up again. No matter where Olivia was, she kept hearing Jacqueline's name.

When Shana mentioned her name, Olivia walked up to her and greeted her.

Nice to meet you, Madam Fordham. "Mom, this is Dr. Fordham. She's the one who cured my insomnia and depression." "You're such a wonderful doctor, Dr.

Fordham. Doctors from all over the world have tried to treat Sean, but they only made it worse. So, you're really a skilled doctor." "You're too kind, Madam Fordham. It's pure luck that I was able to cure Sean.” Naturally, Shana noticed how Olivia addressed Sean. The rumors were true. He had fallen for Olivia.

I heard that you have a child, right?

Shana was very gentle and didn't put on airs. She heard the sounds of bells getting closer before stopping before her. Then, the bells rang rhythmically.

Olivia explained, "Madam Fordham, my daughter was born a mute. She's greeting you. Sorry for the inconvenience.” "Is that so?"

Shana crouched down slowly. Then, she raised her hand and patted Willow on the head. "Hi, Willow."

Olivia noticed a dimple on Shana's left cheek when she smiled. It was in the same spot as Sean's dimple.

All of the siblings resembled her a little. Jacqueline was the exception.

Shana reflexively took a step forward while she was talking. There were several steps of stairs before her.

Watch out, Madam Fordham.

Thanks. You're really attentive and kind, Shana said gently.

Sean was a little anxious. "Why not do it now, Dr. Fordham? Please examine my mother." "Sure. I'll be in your hands, Dr. Fordham."

They sat down in the pavilion. Then, Olivia placed her fingers on Shana's pulse.
