Avery spoke some words of comfort before ending the call. Olivia felt that something was off.
"Mr. Avery, why didn't you mention that you're getting treatment?"
Avery said slowly, "Someone wants to kill me."
He spoke indifferently, but his words shocked Olivia.
"You're suspecting that the Fordhams are behind it?"
"I don't want to assume such things about my family, but there's something odd about my illness."
For years, he didn't doubt his own family.
At first, he only needed to find a suitable kidney to cure his illness. But oddly enough, he never managed to find one.
Later on, he finally managed to find other sources via alternate routes. However, all of the donors would pass away in various accidents, hence delaying his surgery.
If it only happened once or twice, it might have been a coincidence.
But later on, things had gotten so outrageous that Avery finally felt that something was off.
He had carried out investigations in secret for a long time. His enemy hid their traces very well, and he only managed to nab a few scapegoats.
Avery was sure that the person must be hiding in the Fordham residence.
Later on, he left his house on his own. He didn't even tell his siblings about it.
As expected, things had gotten much more peaceful for him in the past six months.
Even though his kidney illness wouldn't be cured too soon, it was at least much better than it had been six months ago.
Avery didn't know who it was who wanted to kill him. For the sake of himself and his family, he was very careful about it.
From time to time, he would post photos of beautiful scenery around the world.
He did it on purpose so that his enemy would think that he was still traveling around the globe.
The enemy was probably waiting for him to meet his end.
Olivia had accidentally learned of a huge secret, so she felt a little embarrassed.
Avery smiled.
"I trust that you're not behind this. We have both suffered a lot. Sadly, I realized it too late. If not, Sean wouldn't have gotten his legs broken."
Olivia had heard before that Sean Fordham, the third child of the family, had gotten into an accident.
