Chapter 1

When Brandon Neal and Benjamin Neal walked into the research lab, I was writing a resignation letter.Seeing that I was the only person in the research lab, they immediately stopped smiling. They frowned and asked in disdain, “Olivia Anderson, what are you sneakily writing over there?” When I heard that, I glanced at them and answered indifferently, “I’m writing a resignation letter.”It would be announced in a few days. Naturally, there was no need to hide it from them. Due to their accusations, I was unable to continue staying in this research lab. Everyone had accused me of taking credit for a junior’s work. They said that I was a jealous lowlife. They looked at me in disgust as if I were a dirty rat. The person in charge of the research lab was our supervisor, Professor Clark. He had a talk with me the day I was discharged from the hospital. He requested that I leave the research lab. Brandon and Benjamin stared at me in disbelief before they walked over. Brando

They were saying, “Mandy, why did you carry such heavy things on your own? Why didn’t you ask us for help? We can carry it for you.” They reached out in an attempt to help her with the box. However, Mandy suddenly wrestled against them and rejected their helping hands. “I can do it by myself. Olivia asked me to carry these on my own. I don’t need your help,” she said. As she spoke, it looked like she was losing her grip on the test tubes. The box wobbled before it crashed onto my head. Brandon and Benjamin were in shock as they yelled out Mandy’s name and threw themselves at her. Both of them held her tightly in their arms so that she would not get hurt. At the same time, Brandon pushed me aside. I hit my waist against the corner of a table, and I was covered in cuts resulting from the shattered test tubes. I could not get up at all.I yelled out in agony as cold sweat trickled down my temples. It was excruciating, as though the corner of the table had smashed into me. B

When I was diving in the deep sea to get a special seaweed, I took a risk and took off my protective gloves. A mysterious sea creature that guarded the seaweed bit my hand. However, I endured the pain and plucked the seaweed. After I returned to land, I went for a checkup and discovered that I had been infected by the West Nile virus. There was no known cure for it. On top of that, the last phase of the infection was extremely painful. It would turn anyone into a shell of a person.I did not want to die without dignity. Hence, I arranged euthanasia for myself in Switzerland a month later. After I was discharged, I went back to the Anderson family’s house. It was my twenty-fourth birthday. When my mother was still alive, she would throw me a huge birthday party every year. She would prepare a huge cake that was as tall as a human in the living room. Then, she would personally put a custom-made diamond crown on me and dress me in a gown that she had made herself. She w

“You’re hitting someone because of this? No wonder others say that you’re unreasonable and arrogant. No wonder no one in the research lab likes you.” Brandon had just finished talking when I slapped him forcefully. As I pointed at the three of them, my finger was trembling from rage. “Mr. White, send the three of them out! From this day onward, none of them can enter my house!” Brandon and Benjamin’s faces fell. They could freely enter my house before because they had been my childhood best friends. Did this mean that I was going to cut them off?Brandon and Benjamin were just about to speak when Mandy suddenly sobbed. “I’m sorry, Olivia. I didn’t mean to come over to celebrate your birthday. If you don’t welcome me, I can leave. Please don’t be angry at Brandon and Benjamin because of me.“I’ll leave on my own. I won’t interrupt your birthday celebration.” After she said that, she prepared to leave. She had only taken two steps when she suddenly sprained her ankle an

I reached out to pat her shoulder as I said, “You shouldn’t apologize to me. You should apologize to Brandon and Benjamin. “After all, I’m not the one with a genetic disease.”After that, I no longer cared about the confused gazes of those in the research lab. I also ignored Brandon and Benjamin’s shocked expressions and left. When they realized what I was talking about, Brandon and Benjamin immediately chased after me. They stopped me from leaving as they nervously asked, “Olivia, what do you mean? What’s that seaweed for?” I glanced at them and pulled out a stack of papers before passing them over. It was information that I had gathered all these years to treat their genetic disease. It also contained the solution that I had finally found to save them. There was a genetic disease that ran in the Neal family. The men’s bodies would immediately weaken after they turned thirty. Their muscles would weaken, and their eyesight would worsen. Their internal organs would fail,

“Besides, it’s Olivia’s personal claim that it can cure you. It’s not completely believable.“After all, Olivia is so good at acting…”Her words made Brandon and Benjamin turn their questioning gazes on me. In the end, Mandy was more trustworthy in their eyes than I was.In the past, I would have been upset if I saw them believing Mandy without any hesitation. However, I no longer cared about them. Naturally, I would not be upset about their distrust. I shrugged and said, “It’s up to you to decide if you believe me or not. It doesn’t matter. After all, I’m leaving the research lab. I’m only here to get my things today.”“What?” Benjamin and Brandon asked at the same time. They exchanged glances and realized that I had been serious when I said that I was writing my resignation letter. “Are you really leaving the research lab? Why?” Brandon asked with a dark expression.I stared at him and Benjamin. “Didn’t both of you contribute to my reason for leaving? Why are you fei

At that time, I was having the seasonal flu. It was mild with a slight cough, and I did not even have a fever. However, Brandon and Benjamin treated it very seriously. They took care of me all day and night. Judging by how anxious they were, someone might have thought that I was terminally ill. After I recovered, they always kept a spare jacket for me in their backpack. They were afraid that I would fall sick again from the cold. However, it had since changed into Mandy’s jacket. I did not know when Mandy began to replace me. When I thought about it, it made me feel dejected. I had left without any hesitation and discarded my care for Brandon and Benjamin. Even so, I always felt a little upset when I recalled the past. When Mandy first arrived, she followed me around like a puppy. I was also really fond of this new junior. Whenever I conducted research, I would include her. I patiently taught her things that she did not understand too. Her research skills were rea

Just as he was about to turn, I grabbed his hand and told him the truth about my condition. I thought he would be upset and disappointed. However, he was overjoyed. He hugged me and spun me around. I looked at him in confusion. He ran back into his study excitedly and passed me a document. I was shocked after reading it. The feeling of hope filled me while I was in a desperate place!

“Olivia, you’re getting married? Who are you getting married to? How dare you?”What a madman!I did not want to waste another breath on him. I told him it was my business and hung up. Then, I blocked this number too. After I changed my phone settings to reject calls from all unknown numbers, I departed excitedly with Vincent to view my wedding gown. However, I was a little curious about Mandy’s situation after what Brandon had told me. I asked some friends in the country and learned about the situation. It turned out that after I left the country, Mandy thought she could covet everything that once belonged to me. First, she went to my mansion alongside Brandon and Benjamin.

“Olivia, didn’t we promise each other that if you were to marry anyone, you could only choose between Brandon and me?“What are you doing? You actually left the country to marry someone else? Do you feel it’s right to treat us like that?”I looked at the twins and found it ridiculous hearing them recount the promise we made when we were young. They did not remember that promise when they repeatedly hurt me because of Mandy. They only quoted it when they saw me getting married. I stared at them mockingly.“Didn’t you push me to do this? Why? Won’t Mandy be upset that both of you are at my wedding?” Brandon fell silent before he explained, “Olivia, we know what happened. Everything happened because of Mandy! She purposely created misunderstandings, and it drove a wedge between us.“But Benjamin and I already see her for who she really is. I’m sorry, Olivia. We misunderstood you in the past.“We’ve asked Mandy to leave. You can return to our side. We can start again, just like
