Chapter 814
Even After Death
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.
Oliviaâs reaction was similar to Ethanâs. She hugged Alicia tightly and couldnât 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 didnât understand.
Alicia wiped Oliviaâs tears away gently and even blew on her eyes. âDonât cry, she said.
In the past, Jack would blow on her wounds whenever she was hurt. Then sheâd stop crying.
Olivia raised her hands to wipe her tears away. She then gently cupped Aliciaâs face.
She took a good look at the girlâs pretty little face.
She looked a lot like Ethan, but Olivia still loved her to bits.
âYour name is Alicia, right?â
Alicia nodded and replied, âYes. Iâm Alicia.â
Oliviaâs tears started flowing again. She crouched on the floor and caressed Aliciaâs face with trembling
fingers.
She murmured, âItâs a good name. A very pretty name.â
Alicia didnât understand why Olivia would cry over her name. She reached out and touched Oliviaâs
head.
âHead.â
Olivia wiped her tears frantically and said, âI was sick, so my hair fell off. Itâll grow back.â
She lifted Alicia into her arms and said, âLetâs stay together forever, okay?â
âZack.â Alicia reminded Olivia.
âYeah. Iâll definitely find Zack. Weâll all be together again.â
Alicia smiled when she heard that. Then, she thought about Ethan, who also promised to find Zack for
her.
She muttered, âMisterâ¦â
âMister? Who is that?â Olivia asked.
Alicia couldnât really describe Ethan. She didnât know his name. She only knew him as âmisterâ.
han slowly walked up to them. âYouâve 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. Itâs safe here
on the island.â
Olivia finally realized her surroundings were different. âWhere are we? Whereâs Tobias?â
âWe were lucky that we happened to come across the navy. They captured the pirates. Tobiasâ ship
was under attack, but the good thing is that he didnât lose any of his cargo..
âYouâve been unconscious for the past few days. Tobias couldnât really take you with him since his ship
wasnât in the best shape. The navy brought us to the nearest island to rest up.
âWeâre in Arlandia territory now. There wonât be any more pirates,â Ethan explained.
âHow long was I out for?â
âOn and off for a few days. Thatâs why your bodyâs so weak. Ms. Alicia recovered quicker than you. She
only swallowed some seawater. Iâve observed her closely for the past few days. There arenât any more
issues.â
Olivia nodded. âIâm so thankful youâre here. Thank you.â
âYouâre too kind, Ms. Fordham. Iâm fully compensated by Mr. Rogers. Besides, weâve been together for
a few months. I think we can be considered friends. Itâs only natural that I help a friend out.â
âFriend? I donât need friends,â Olivia said coldly as she thought about Mona.
