"Zero," Ike replied without hesitation.

Wayne shot daggers at him with his eyes. "Do you have to tamper my confidence like this? I'm your boss."

"Ike doesn't mean it that way, Mr. Maxwell. According to our sources, Ms. Fordham brought along her youngest daughter, Willow. She hasn't been able to speak ever since she was born. How could she call you 'Dad'?"

Alan hurriedly spoke for his brother because he knew Wayne was going to hold a grudge again otherwise.

Ike once tried to murder Olivia in the country before this, and he was severely punished when Wayne found out.

Wayne tipped his cigarette. Despite his tall stature, he looked lonely in the cloud of smoke. "It hasn't been that long since I last met her. Why do I miss her so much?"

Alan facepalmed upon hearing the muttering.

Just what kind of spell did Olivia cast on Wayne that he was so hopelessly in love with her?

On the other hand, Willow was preparing to lift the curse off Jacqueline.

Ethan had never witnessed such a thing. The scene was unpleasant even for a man like him, who had been to death's doorstep.

Willow was holding a peculiar bell-the Cursed Bell.

As Willow lightly shook it, Jacqueline opened her mouth. A worm soon squirmed out of her mouth.

Before Ethan could get a good glimpse of it, Willow pinched and kept it in a magical bottle, which was a present from Wendy.

Jacqueline's heart didn't hurt anymore, but she couldn't help gagging. It was disgusting!

"Jacqueline, how do you feel? Better?" Alexander asked worriedly.

"I feel like throwing up. It's disgusting."

No one could ever stand the fact that a fat worm had just crawled out of their mouth.

Olivia assured, "She should feel better after a thirty-minute break. Now, it's your turn."

"I can't break the curse right now." His brows furrowed. "Jacqueline's not doing well. It's risky. Lifebond Curse is a dangerous curse to begin with. It's the most reactive curse too. She needs to rest for two days. Then, I can do it."

Olivia's eyes turned cold. "Are you kidding me?"

"As I said, want to lift the curse off her more than you do. If it wasn't to save her, I wouldn't have cast the curse on you. Don't forget that your lives are bound together. If you die, she dies. I'll never let that happen."

Ethan coldly stated, "Let's stay here for another two days. I wonder what kind of tricks you're hiding up your sleeves."

"Whatever I do is to protect Jacqueline. That's it," Alexander said helplessly.

Ethan led Olivia and Willow out of the room. Olivia was annoyed. She knew it. It wouldn't be that easy to lift the Lifebond Curse.

"Liv, Madam Wendy has confirmed

that both are you are bound by the

curse. He has a point. Besides, there's no way he can escape from here." Ethan's confident tone indicated that he had made the

necessary arrangements.

Olivia knew that.

Willow waved her hand, and a seagull flew toward her. Taking her flute out, she began blowing an ordinary melody. Despite that, Olivia knew how special her daughter was. Jacqueline covered her ears with a pillow. "What's that? Stop the noise!"

"That little girl is blowing a flute."

"Is she calling upon scursed worms too?"

Alexander grazed her nose tip. "Silly you. It's just a simple piece. There

are only a few cursed worms that

can be manipulated by a melodret

Even if it works, the cursed worms should be in a host. It's for

manipulation use. How are you

feeling right now?"

"Good."

"Which means she doesn't pose a threat. You're in a bad shape. Get srest for the next two days. Don't think of anything. Just leave it to me." "Okay."

The next day, before the sky brightened, Willow was outside the hotel playing with a ball under a coconut tree. However, her eyes didn't leave Alexander's room.

The ball rolled along the field until it bumped into someone's foot. It was a tall man. His shadow was like a mountain to her. He picked up the ball and gave it to her. "Hey girl, is this yours?"

He showed his pristine smile even though his face was smeared in black.

Willow thought, "A gorilla?"

Wayne thought, "Is she enchanted by my good looks?"
