Avery spoke some words of comfort before ending the call. Olivia felt that something was off.
"Mr. Avery, why didn't you mention that you're getting treatment?"
Avery said slowly, "Someone wants to kill me."
He spoke indifferently, but his words shocked Olivia.
"You're suspecting that the Fordhams are behind it?"
"I don't want to assume such things about my family, but there's something odd about my illness."
For years, he didn't doubt his own family.
At first, he only needed to find a suitable kidney to cure his illness. But oddly enough, he never
managed to find one.
Later on, he finally managed to find other sources via alternate routes. However, all of the donors
would pass away in various accidents, hence delaying his surgery.
If it only happened once or twice, it might have been a coincidence.
But later on, things had gotten so outrageous that Avery finally felt that something was off.
He had carried out investigations in secret for a long time. His enemy hid their traces very well, and he
only managed to nab a few scapegoats.
Avery was sure that the person must be hiding in the Fordham residence.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLater on, he left his house on his own. He didn't even tell his siblings about it.
As expected, things had gotten much more peaceful for him in the past six months.
Even though his kidney illness wouldn't be cured too soon, it was at least much better than it had been
six months ago.
Avery didn't know who it was who wanted to kill him. For the sake of himself and his family, he was very
careful about it.
From time to time, he would post photos of beautiful scenery around the world.
He did it on purpose so that his enemy would think that he was still traveling around the globe.
The enemy was probably waiting for him to meet his end.
Olivia had accidentally learned of a huge secret, so she felt a little embarrassed.
Avery smiled.
"I trust that you're not behind this. We have both suffered a lot. Sadly, I realized it too late. If not, Sean
wouldn't have gotten his legs broken."
Olivia had heard before that Sean Fordham, the third child of the family, had gotten into an accident.
Back then, the Fordham family was way above her, so she wasn't too concerned about them.
But now, she was no longer the helpless person she once was.
"How are his legs now? I learned a lot from my teacher, and I may have a way to get him to walk
again."
Marina was the best example of her capabilities.
"Really?"
"Yes. You've seen how capable my teacher is; he could even heal someone who had all four limbs
broken. The worst-case scenario would be getting prosthetics.
"My teacher has already made the best prosthetics in the world, and no one can tell that they're
prosthetics at first glance."
Avery had talked to Louis before, and he knew that Olivia wasn't exaggerating.
"Sean has been upset ever since the incident, and he had stopped smiling because of his legs. Olivia,
if you can cure him, my family will be forever in your debt."
Olivia nodded. "I'll discuss this with Mr. Rivera. The human modification project won't be starting for
now.
"I can go to Zelotria in person and have a look at Mr. Sean."
"Olivia, I'm relieved to hear that."
Olivia had been getting along quite well with Louis in the past few days, and Louis had also agreed to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlet her go home for the festivities.
Now that her identity was exposed, it would be a piece of cake for Louis to locate her.
In simpler terms, she wouldn't be able to escape from him.
But before the project, she was still a free person. This period also served as buffer time for Olivia.
"What about you?"
"I'll stay here for now to continue with my treatment. When I have truly become a herb-imbued person,
there may be hope for me to recover."
"Mr. Avery, I'm sure that you'll recover."
On the day of Olivia's departure, Avery made sure to see her off.
The ocean breeze blew past, and Avery coughed as he handed her a ring.
"This is the key belonging to the leader of Peace's Embrace. I heard that you have done many good
things in recent years, so I think that you're more worthy of this than I am."
The original intention of Peace's Embrace was to ensure world peace, so it was in line with Olivia's
thoughts.
She accepted the ring. "Mr. Avery, I'll do everything in my power to achieve your dreams."
"Take care. If you need anything in the future, you can contact me."
