Back then, after Olivia's incident, Ethan broke his own sister's limbs to avenge Olivia. He wanted to keep Leia trapped for life.
After all, a person who had lost all four limbs wouldn't be able to cause trouble.
But Ethan seemed to have underestimated Leia's determination.
She had experienced inhumane torture since she was young, so she was mentally far stronger than the common person.
She had only lost her limbs, so of course, she wouldn't give up.
Ethan and Janice thought that Leia would turn over a new leaf, but they were unaware that she was gathering strength as she awaited the right time.
Ethan had been too busy in the past few years, and Leia was overseas. So, if Janice had hidden and defended Leia on purpose, Ethan wouldn't have noticed it.
When Olivia saw Leia, she subconsciously touched her wrist.
Back then, Ethan had injured her wrist because of Leia. Now, Olivia felt as if her wrist was still hurting even though her injuries had healed, and there weren't even any scars in sight.
Olivia knew that the bullet hadn't only hit her wrist, but it had also gone straight through her heart. Even now, it was still embedded in her heart.
"Who are you?" Leia's voice was still rough.
Olivia changed her voice and said, "I am Mr. Rivera's assistant. He has been waiting for a long time."
Leia wondered if she was seeing things, but she felt as if the masked woman in the white coat in front of her had a familiar silhouette.
Reality had proven that regardless of love or hate, she would still be able to recognize that person in a dense crowd.
But Leia soon dismissed that thought. How could Olivia have anything to do with Louis?
Olivia couldn't possibly be here.
"Thank you."
Leia quietly followed Olivia, unaware of Olivia's raging hatred.
Various past events came to Olivia's mind.
She thought of Ethan's cruel gaze, the Fordham family going bankrupt, Jeff's accident, Jodie's death, her own kidnapping, and the time when Snowball fell off the roof and died right in front of her.
Olivia had never forgotten any of those incidents, not even for a day.
She looked down at Olivia's hand, which was holding a notebook.
Olivia's wrist was smooth and fair, and there were no scars in sight.
It was only then that Leia relaxed. She was just overthinking it. This woman wasn't Olivia.
Olivia ordered coldly, "Lie down. I'm going to examine you."
Leia was about to lie down when her phone rang.
Glancing at the phone number, Leia said, "Sorry, I have a call to answer."
"Go ahead."
Leia hastily left. After making sure that no one was around, she answered the call. A female voice rang out over the phone. "It's me. I want you to do something for me…"
Leia's expression shifted a little. She was about to answer when she caught sight of a man in a white suit nearby.
Her mind buzzed for a moment. Why was Avery here?
