Olivia tried asking Ethan about it, but he only told her parts of the story.

It was understandable because of the nature of his job that he was required to keep somesecrets. Mason and Linus were very important people, too.

She couldn't just ask them about classified information. She was an adult and knew how torespect boundaries.

The reason she wanted to get to the bottom of it was to prepare for the future.

She was a member of the Heath family, after all. She wanted to be able to prevent gettingdragged into troublesome matters.

Fabian and the Kingston family should be able to dig something up. Fabian was able to beat thecompetition and surprise Otto.

He should be quite capable.

Olivia made a deal with Fabian with Marina as the prize. Fabian would be more than happy to doher bidding.

She was able to keep Marina under control with the microchip. It would also prevent Marinafrom acting out again.

That killed two birds with one stone.

She was finally able to relax after she confirmed that Jack's life was not in danger.

Olivia felt some emotions bubbling from within her as she looked at the black rose bushes.

She had never met Kurt, but she went through a lot because of him.

"I'm sorry. My brother caused you a lot of trouble." Jack could guess what Olivia was thinking about.

"It's fine. It's all in the past now. Ethan would be dead without him, and I won't be able to have the other

kids.

"I wouldn't have met you. I guess this is what you call fate. Jack, what's your plan for the future?"

Jack looked at Ethan and said, "I want to take Erina away. She won't have a happy life living with

Marina."

"I don't mind."

Ethan knew that Jack would be a better parent for Erina than Marina. It would be better if she were with

him instead.

A child who had never felt love before needed to have a family by her side.

Ethann wasn't her father, after all. And he had a lot of history with Marina. It wouldn't be respectful tonovelbin

Olivia if he took Erina.

Jack was the best person for that job.

"I'll arrange for it. It's about time she had her name changed."

"Joy Stone. If Kurt was still alive, he would want his daughter to be a joyful little princess without any

worries."

"Okay." Olivia noticed that Jack had grown closer to Ethan. It seemed like Ethan had done some work.

"Alright. It's freezing out here. Let's stop standing around. Jack, I bet you haven't eaten yet, right?

"Let's find somewhere to sit down. You have to tell me why you did something so stupid!"

Jack also put on a stern face. "Sure. Then, why don't you tell me what's going on with you and Wayne?

I would've killed him already."

Olivia patted herself on her chest. "You would've shot me in the head if not for the bulletproofwindow."

Both of them were still alive. That was all they could've asked for.

Olivia had found a restaurant and ordered a stew. She raised her glass for a toast.

She hadn't eaten much before because Wayne was there. This meal was a celebration forsurviving the incident on the road.

Ethan thought about what they used to do as a couple.

Olivia would prepare the food and pick out a movie. They would eat while watching the movie.Then, they would sip on some alcohol.

"Here, Jack. Let's drink and drop all the grudges. Please don't try to exact revenge on Ethananymore.

"He's with me. If he dies, my kids will be without a father."

Jack chuckled. "Have you forgotten about all the pain he caused you? What about the timeswhen you cried to me about what he did to you?"

"I didn't forget. I can't forget the hate, but I can't forget the love, either. Aren't I worthless?"

Olivia was a little drunk. Her face was flushed, and she was mumbling a little.

Ethan hugged her from the side. "It won't happen again. I won't ever hurt you again."
