Troy didn't understand why Olivia was asking about Jacqueline's reaction, but he still recounted the events in detail.

"As you know, I couldn't exactly leave Jacqueline to fend for herself in a situation like that. So, I shielded her. Is there any problem with that?"

Olivia didn't have the heart to tell him the cold, hard truth yet. She needed more evidence. After all, these Fordham brothers loved their sister a lot. They were naturally biased.

"Of course not. You're a good brother. I just want to know what happened. Anyway, you need to calm down. I healed Sean's legs, so your arms are not a problem."

"Really?"

"Do you think I'd lie to you right now?"

"But why didn't Sean tell us his legs have recovered?"

Olivia whispered, "It's because there's a person who's trying to destroy the Fordham family."

"You mean..."

Then, Olivia told him the plan. "I'm sorry, Mr. Troy. You were one of the suspects too. That's why I didn't tell you, and that's probably why you got into such trouble."

Troy was stunned. It took him a lot of time to absorb the information Olivia was sharing with him. He was completely dazed. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He had been focused on his designs all the time. Even as he lay on the bed, the thought of his family plotting against him never even crossed his mind.

"No wonder Avery told me to bring more bodyguards when I go out. I thought he was just being paranoid. So, he was actually afraid that something would happen to me.

"I finally understand now, but it's too late. Dr. Fordham, who do you think the person behind all of this could be?"

"I wasn't sure before this, but this incident has given me some leads. Mr. Troy, I shared this secret with you so that you wouldn't give up on hope.

"The Fordham family is under siege. It's not just you and your siblings. Even Madam Fordham is being dragged into this. Someone wants to destroy your family. You have to be on guard from now on. I'm guessing that whoever is behind this is planning to end things once and for all soon."

Troy wasn't dumb. He understood it wasn't the time for tears. "Understood. Just tell me how I can help."

"You don't need to do anything yet. Just don't expose yourself. The mastermind will show up soon."

Olivia comforted him for a little while longer before she left. There was no longer any despair in Troy's eyes. Instead, they were filled with hatred.

Hatred was enough to keep him going.

After she closed the door, Jacqueline approached her with a worried expression. "Dr. Fordham, how's Troy?"

Olivia shook her head. "He hurt his arms, which are extremely important to him. It won't be easy for him to get over it. He's very mentally weak right now. You and the rest of his family have to keep him company."

"Alright. Thanks, Dr. Fordham."

"You don't have to thank me. I didn't do anything. I'll go check on Sean. He was quite shaken too."

"Sure. I'll keep Troy company tonight."

Olivia left.

Sean was in a horrible state. He kept slapping his face, but Olivia stopped him.

"It's not your fault. Don't do this."

Sean wanted to say something, but Olivia gave him a look. Then, she took his hand and said with concern, "Don't be sad."

She sighed. Then, she leaned into his ear and said, "Someone's watching us."

She sensed that when she met Jacqueline.

Sean immediately reacted and pulled Olivia into his embrace.

The enemy was making their move!
