Chapter 377

Olivia had arrived at the café early on. After learning about Avery’s identity, she felt a little nervous. The Fordhams were only a middle-class family in Aldenvine before they went

bankrupt.

But Avery owned a huge corporation that was internationally famous. He usually met either high- ranking government officials or influential leaders in the industry.

When Avery opened the door and walked in, Olivia stood up. She looked nervous as she said, ” Hello, Mr. Fordham.”

In their past two meetings, Avery had been in a rush. Avery wasn’t sure if it was because of her looks, but he felt a sense of familiarity around her.

“You don’t have to be so formal, Ms. Fordham. Have a seat.”

The two sat down opposite each other. Olivia clasped her hands together as she spoke in a trembling voice. “Pardon me, Mr. Fordham, but I have something to ask of you.”

“Please don’t say that, Ms. Fordham. You saved my life. It doesn’t matter what sort of help you want me to provide. You can just tell me.”

Avery had an earnest look on his face. Olivia knew that he must sincerely wish to thank her. Otherwise, he would’ve settled it by giving her money.

“Tis of the essence, so I won’t beat around the bush. Mr. Fordham, how much do you know about Toxic Hive?”

Avery took a few sips of the lemonade. Setting down the glass, he had a serene look on his face.

“Hm, I may know more about them than the average person. Ms. Fordham, tellwhat you want me to do. As long as it’s something I can do, I won’t decline.”

Olivia replied, “I was kidnapped by people from Toxic Hive stago, and I almost died. Their people targetedon various occasions.

“Not only that, but my mother was diagnosed with leukemia. We still haven’t found a matching bone marrow donor for her.

“She wasn’t supposed to be in the advanced stage. But her condition suddenly worsened this morning. The doctor has already issued an advanced directive.”

Olivia spoke quickly. She didn’t hide anything from this stranger that she had only met for the

third time.

“I’m suspecting that Toxic Hive did something to her. That’s why she worsened ahead of time.

“Now, to save my mother’s life, my stepfather is going to make a trade with Toxic Hive. I fear that they may already have a trap in place.”

Olivia looked helpless. “I’m sorry for asking you to do something like this even though we just got to know each other, Mr. Fordham. But I have no other choice.

“Six months ago, my father got into an accident. Now, my mother only has a few dozen hours left. I only dared to ask you for help after learning about your identity.”

Avery said, “Please don’t say that, Ms. Fordham. I wouldn’t just sit by and watch even if it’s solely because we share the slast name.

“I can do something about Toxic Hive, but what do you wantto do?”

Olivia’s mind was in a mess. “I … want to save my mother’s life, but I don’t trust Toxic Hive. There’s a deep grudge betweenand Toxic Hive. To be honest, I don’t know what to do.”

She spoke at a slow pace. “If possible, I want to find the person who keeps trying to kill me. But she has gone into hiding these days, so I can’t find her anywhere.”

With that, Olivia seemed a little regretful. She thought that she sounded a little pathetic for telling a stranger about this.

She didn’t know what cover her. She felt very reassured when she met Avery. Before she knew it, she had already told him everything on her mind.

Avery rubbed his fingers against the smooth glass. “Calm down. I’ll think of a way to help you figure out who tried to kidnap and kill you.

“As for your mother, I’ll send people to ask around in Toxic Hive. I’ll try to make sure that stepfather won’t be harmed. Is that okay?”

Olivia nodded. “Do you have a way, Mr. Fordham?”

Seeing her gleaming eyes, Avery had the urge to get her even the stars in the sky.

“Yes, I have sconnections. I’m glad that I can help you too. It’s getting late, so do order something to eat. You need to eat to get energy. I’ll go out and make a call.”

Olivia nodded, watching the man leave elegantly. She felt much more secure now.

Avery walked to a deserted corridor, his assistant following right after him. He had a dark look

n his eyes. The gentleness he had when he was with Olivia was gone.

“Two things. One, find the person who tried to kill Ms. Fordham. Two, protect Chris.”

Bryce nodded. “Understood, Mr. Fordham.”

After thinking for a moment, Bryce added, “Mr. Fordham, why are you so nice to Ms.
