Chapter 1163
Apart from Eleanor and her circle of friends, Aidyn and Jill were frequent visitors to Liana’s abode.
Despite Jill being with child, it didn’t hinder her from making her way over to Liana’s, whipping up
meals, and indulging in chit–chat. She simply avoided any mention of baby matters.
Everyone was aware of Liana’s inability to bear children, so Jill was cautious to circumnavigate the
topic. Yet Liana remained nonchalant. She would often stroke Jill’s belly, engaging in conversation with
the unborn child. Liana would always mention that she had a grand surprise in store for the baby upon
its birth…
And what was this grand surprise? Liana inscribed in her will. “All my possessions will belong to Aidyn’s
child…”
Liana enlisted a lawyer to entrust her assets in her will and once the arrangements were in place, she

Eleanor, on the brink of stepping out with Nina, was startled by Liana’s call. “Liana, what’s the matter?”
Casting a glance at her wristwatch, Liana announced, “I’ve just accepted a project overseas, need to
undertake some volunteer medical work for a month, so I won’t be able to join you today”
Eleanor halted in her steps, her brow furrowed in concern, “You’ll be away for a month?”
Liana nodded in affirmation, “Yes, you know how it is with volunteer work, it usually takes a while. A
month is actually quite brief.”
Eleanor asked, “Why’d you suddenly take up something like this?”
Liana was actually a hospital director, supposed to be running the show, but she was always on the
front lines, taking on all sorts of work, now even heading off for volunteer work.
Liana replied, “Doing something meaningful beats killing time.”
Eleanor didn’t know how to respond. She couldn’t stop Liana from doing good deeds, so she asked,
“So, someone’s going with you?”
Again, Liana nodded, “Yep, doctors from all sorts of hospitals are going. We’re all in this together.”
Eleanor felt a bit better, “Then remember to video call me every day, call me every day. If anything
happens, tell me right away”
Liana smiled, “Sure thing.”
After lots of nagging from Eleanor, which Liana promised to follow, she hung up. Liana grabbed her
packed suitcase and hit the road to the airport.
The volunteer work was real, Liana’s name was on the list, but she didn’t actually go. It was just a ruse
to throw Eleanor off…
Seeing the list, Eleanor was relieved and messaged Liana to stay safe on the road.
On her way to Panama, Liana saw the message, replied with a smile, ‘Will do, don’t worry‘, then turned
off her phone, settled into her seat, and gazed out the window…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLiana soon reached Panama, rented a ship, and landed on a small island.
The island had been cordoned off because the owner had supposedly committed suicide….
Liana lifted the tape and ducked under. The place was overgrown with weeds and abandoned, a stark
contrast to when Tyler was around.
Standing in the mansion, Liana looked around, feeling indescribable. She walked stiffly, dragging her
heavy suitcase, step by step into the villa.
As soon as she opened the door, black footprints were everywhere, left by people coming and going.
The once neat and clean living room was now filthy because of these footprints.
Liana put down her suitcase, took out the meat from it one by one, and put them in the fridge. Then she
got cleaning supplies from the bathroom and scrubbed the living room until it was spotless.
She cleaned from the first floor all the way up to the third. When she reached the birdcage room, she
froze, afraid to take another step. She seemed scared that if she opened the door, she’d see a sight
that would break her.
