Although Jacqueline was dead, Olivia didn't feel happy, not even one bit.

Olivia sighed softly.
"You're too young to be sighing like that." Wayne suddenly appeared next to her.
He sat next to her carefreely, completely unbothered by the sand.
He patted his side. "Have a seat. I won't do anything to you. I just want to have a chat with you."
Olivia glanced at him. She subconsciously retreated backward before taking a seat.
"Hey, it's the 20th century. Stop being old-fashioned, will you?" He really disliked how she was avoiding him like the plague.
She shook her head. "Wayne, we can be friends. I can't promise you anything beyond that."
Then, he suddenly leaned in closer. His presence was overwhelming. "Dr. Fordham, if you didn't want my attention, you shouldn't have givenhope in the beginning."
"Sorry, Wayne." If Olivia had known that that mission would pique his interest in her, she wouldn't have accepted it.
"Not even a chance? We can try." Wayne put himself low at this point.
Olivia stared at his pleading eyes. Lovesick had never been an illness that she could heal.
Ethan roared, "In your dreams! Liv has agreed to marry me."

Wayne threatened, "Got a death wish? Don't forget whose territory you're on right now."
"It doesn't matter whose territory it is. I can beat you into a pulp."

"Why should I? A men's fight has nothing to do with women," she stated casually.
Willow crunning bare-footed. The bells around her ankle rang briskly.
When she reached the men covered in sand, they finally stopped.
Ethan cooed, "Alright, Willow. Don't worry. I'll stop."
Wayne chimed in, "Willow, look at me. I'm your stepfather."
She dug out a little crab, sparing them an indifferent glance before leaving. It was as if she were looking at idiots.
Wayne watched her back. "Is that your daughter?"
Ethan's fist was flying at Wayne again. "Stepfather? Not a chance!"
Olivia put down the coconut to wave at Willow. "Willow, we're going to go hsoon."
