Olivia yawned when she got into the car.
Linus patted her on the head. "Are you tired?"
"A little. I was just used to Carathia's hours. I'll adjust in a couple of days."
Olivia closed her eyes and was about to rest.
Linus suddenly spoke up, "That person that you worked with is still alive."
Olivia had been busy the entire day. She almost forgot about Undecim.
"Really?"
"Wayne didn't catch him. He was only bluffing at the airport to get you to stay. I might have taken you away, but your identity has also been exposed.
"Wayne has crossed swords with Ethan many times over the years. He's a very troublesome enemy. He will try to achieve his goals no matter what he has to do."
"Uncle Linus, I understand. But since I'm back at the Heath residence, he won't be able to do anything to me, right?"
Linus sighed. "You're underestimating the persistence of a man. Especially a man who's basically in heat."
Olivia blushed. It was a very apt description for Wayne.
"Olivia, you stole his ring. But why didn't it explode when you put it on? The ring would automatically detect its wearer's vital signs.
"It's because it was you. He didn't want you to get hurt. So, he was never mad because you stole the ring. He was mad because you were leaving him."
Olivia thought about what Wayne told her the night before she left. He was even willing to bring her husband and child over to settle down in Carathia.
She had lied to him. He probably wouldn't forgive her.
"I'm just reminding you not to put yourself in danger again. It'll be nearly impossible for him to do anything to you now that you're living in the Heath residence."
"I understand, Uncle Linus."
…
As soon as they got home, they saw the butler running toward the house.
"He has always been very level-headed. Why is he running all of a sudden?"
