Chapter 814
Blood ties were inseverable. Even if Alicia had never seen Olivia before, she recognized her mother immediately.
In the pictures Jack showed her, Olivia had a warm smile, and she had hair. Olivia was also slim and frail at the moment, but Alicia could tell she was her mother.
Olivia’s reaction was similar to Ethan’s. She hugged Alicia tightly and couldn’t stop crying tears of joy from the reunion.
With Alicia in her arms, Olivia recalled all the struggles she had gone through on the day she was born. She thought she would never see her children again..
But her baby had grown into a fine young lady. How could she not be moved to tears?
Alicia was puzzled.
The handsome man had just hugged her and cried a few days ago. Why was her mother crying too? She didn’t understand.
Alicia wiped Olivia’s tears away gently and even blew on her eyes. “Don’t cry, she said.
In the past, Jack would blow on her wounds whenever she was hurt. Then she’d stop crying.
Olivia raised her hands to wipe her tears away. She then gently cupped Alicia’s face.
She took a good look at the girl’s pretty little face.
She looked a lot like Ethan, but Olivia still loved her to bits.
“Your name is Alicia, right?”
Alicia nodded and replied, “Yes. I’m Alicia.”
Olivia’s tears started flowing again. She crouched on the floor and caressed Alicia’s face with trembling fingers.
She murmured, “It’s a good name. A very pretty name.”
Alicia didn’t understand why Olivia would cry over her name. She reached out and touched Olivia’s head.
“Head.”
Olivia wiped her tears frantically and said, “I was sick, so my hair fell off. It’ll grow back.”

She lifted Alicia into her arms and said, “Let’s stay together forever, okay?”
“Zack.” Alicia reminded Olivia.
“Yeah. I’ll definitely find Zack. We’ll all be together again.”
Alicia smiled when she heard that. Then, she thought about Ethan, who also promised to find Zack for her.
She muttered, “Mister…”
“Mister? Who is that?” Olivia asked.
Alicia couldn’t really describe Ethan. She didn’t know his name. She only knew him as “mister”.
han slowly walked up to them. “You’ve just regained consciousness, Ms. Fordham. You need to be looked at by a doctor. You should eat something. The staff will look after Ms. Alicia here. It’s safe here on the island.”
Olivia finally realized her surroundings were different. “Where are we? Where’s Tobias?”
“We were lucky that we happened to come across the navy. They captured the pirates. Tobias’ ship was under attack, but the good thing is that he didn’t lose any of his cargo..
“You’ve been unconscious for the past few days. Tobias couldn’t really take you with him since his ship wasn’t in the best shape. The navy brought us to the nearest island to rest up.
“We’re in Arlandia territory now. There won’t be any more pirates,” Ethan explained.
“How long was I out for?”
“On and off for a few days. That’s why your b*dy’s so weak. Ms. Alicia recovered quicker than you. She only swallowed some seawater. I’ve observed her closely for the past few days. There aren’t any more issues.”
Olivia nodded. “I’m so thankful you’re here. Thank you.”
“You’re too kind, Ms. Fordham. I’m fully compensated by Mr. Rogers. Besides, we’ve been together for a few months. I think we can be considered friends. It’s only natural that I help a friend out.”
“Friend? I don’t need friends,” Olivia said coldly as she thought about Mona.
It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
