Connor grew up alone. He had never been through something like this. The twins were bawling their eyes out next to him. They were inconsolable. But he didn't know what happened to Olivia either.

Connor crouched down to comfort the twins.

"Dad didn't tell me what happened. He just told me he would bring Mom back safely as soon as possible. We need to trust him."

The twins didn't know what to do after he said that.

"I'll go get Great-uncle Linus to help!"

They were smart. They knew this was the best time to use their connection to the Heaths.

Ethan wasn't recognized by the Heaths, so he couldn't ask them for help.

The twins were different. They held Connor's hand and ran to Mason's study.

Mason could hear their crying from a distance. "Oh dear, what happened? Did someone pick on my dear great-grandsons?"

Mason quickly lifted the twins into his embrace.

"Great-grandpa, please save Mom. Something happened to her!" S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Don't cry. Tell me what happened to Olivia quickly."

Connor could only tell Mason everything he knew. Mason wasn't in the mood to guess, so he contacted Ethan immediately to get more information. Ethan didn't want to tell Mason at this point in time. It would only cause needless worry. Besides, Mason was very old, and it would be bad for his health. Nothing had been confirmed yet, but he could only tell Mason the truth since he asked.

Mason said decisively, "I'll get Linus to help you. Find Olivia as soon as possible."

On the island, Olivia looked at the gradually darkening sky. The stars were twinkling.

It was very quiet on the island.

There were only sounds of the waves and some insects. There wasn't the hustle and bustle of the city.

Olivia wasn't calm at all. She missed her children and Ethan.

She knew he would be very worried about her since she hadn't gotten in contact with him.

"Why are you awake at this hour?" Wayne came over with two bottles of beer in his hands. "Do you want a drink?"

Olivia gave him a quick glance, then looked away. "Do you have nothing better to do?"

"I've worked hard for many years. It's fine for me to slack off from time to time. Dr. Ophelia, I'm really not as bad as you think I am.

"You're already divorced. You should give yourself another chance. Give me another chance.

"Why don't you try and get to know me? Maybe I'm better than you think."

Olivia said coldly, "You can try to win me over, but you shouldn't have kidnapped me. I can't condone your actions."

"It's just a means to an end, just like trying to win you over. I don't mind as long as the results are the same.

"Dr. Ophelia, that man hurt you deeply before. I won't do that."

He took a sip of the beer. There was a sincere look on his face.

There wasn't any doom and gloom to be seen. He wasn't tied down by his status.

"I'm different from Ethan. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He had everything he ever wanted.

"I lived in the slums. I need to fight tooth and nail to survive.

"If I didn't get stronger, I wouldn't even be able to protect what was mine. So, I've never seen myself as a gentleman.

"If using any and all methods to succeed is despicable, I don't mind being known as such."

Olivia sighed. "Wayne, why does it have to be me? I have kids. Four of them."

"I don't mind. Really."

Wayne said seriously, "Do you think I've never seen beautiful women before? Or capable women? There will always be plenty of pretty people in the world. "You're different from all of them. You're special. The only person I've ever fallen for.

"You only have yourself to blame for approaching me first."
