“Olivia, your babies are very healthy. Your expected delivery date is next month. “said the gynaecologist who attended to
Olivia.
Olivia exited the hospital, stroking her nine–month–old belly with a pleased smile.
She brought out her mobile phone and took photos of the prenatal check–up reports and sent them to her husband, “Honey, these are our babies.”
Adorable three babies.
“Honey, can you come pick me up? I would have loved it if you accompanied me like the other pregnant women were accompanied to the hospital today.”
“I miss you so much, hubby.”
However, there was no reply to any of Olivia’s messages.
Olivia hesitated for a long time before calling Leo.
It took a while for the call to be connected, “What’s going on? Is something wrong?“,
“Husband, I just completed my maternity check–ups and am at the hospital entrance. Are you less busy? I…”
As she was speaking, Olivia heard a female voice in the background. “Leo, do you think I look good like this?”
Olivia’s heart skipped a beat.
“I don’t have time. I will ask the driver to pick you up.”
After that, he hung up on Olivia without consideration.
Olivia’s heart sank.
On the other end of the line.
“Don’t take it so seriously, it was just a joke,” the woman said.
Her hand slid up to his face, her nails gently tracing the curve of his Adam’s apple.
Leo recoiled, swatting her hand away in disgust.
Three months ago, the stock price of Leo Group plummeted by 47% within the first 13 minutes of trading.
It was then that he received her call.
“Leo, guess which will stop first–the heartbeat of that woman, or the stock price?”
Leo’s eyes darkened with malice as he stared at the woman in front of him, his clenched fist taut with veins bulging on the back of his hand.
Not long after, a car stopped in front of the hospital. “Mrs Walton, the boss asked me to pick you up.”

Olivia got in the car, and the driver drove away. But after a while, Olivia felt something was wrong.
Why is this place so remote?
“Where are we going? Aren’t we going home?” Olivia asked in a panic.
“Mr. Walton asked me to take you to a place.”
The driver kept driving forward, and Olivia’s eyelids twitched as she panicked uncontrollably. She felt that something terrible was about to happen to her.
She called Leo, but he never answered.
The driver stopped at an abandoned warehouse, Olivia dared not leave the car, “This is not home; where did you bring me to?”
She was yanked out of the car by a group of men.
“Why are you here? Well, Mr. Walton asked that you be brought here.” Said the driver.
They forcefully took her hand, placing a pen in her hand and a piece of paper before her and yelled at her, “Sign this!”
Olivia knew that it was a divorce agreement. She struggled and said, “You lied to me; Leo has not signed it yet, and I won’t sign it. I won’t sign it!”
“I want to call my husband. I don’t believe you!” Olivia tried her best not to sign. She only trusted Leo.
The men laughed,
“Let’s commence, guys!”
Olivia clutched her stomach.“No, don’t touch my babies!”
However, she was no match for these men in terms of strength.
It hurts…it hurts so much…
At that moment, there was a rumbling sound in the air, and the men’s expressions changed drastically when they heard, “Go,
someone is coming!”
They threw a lighter into the dry hay that had been prepared, and the flames instantly engulfed the warehouse.
Olivia only had a bit of consciousness left and could only watch as she was surrounded by a sea of fire.
In the haze, Olivia heard a voice, “Oh, my baby Sophie, Grandpa arrived late.”
After the men left, they perfectly concealed the babies, and their leader called Matilda, “Miss, everything has been done according to your plan.”
Matilda’s eyes was filled with heartlessness.
“Don’t let Leo discover this, or else I will kill you!”
“No problem. Since it is twins, can we add more to the price…”
Before he could finish his sentence, he lifted his gaze and looked at the person in front of him in horror.

He quickly hung up the call, and the person before him reached out to him with a strong aura, “Give me the babies.”
At the same time, Leo also received a call from the driver, “What do you mean you didn’t see her at the entrance?”
