Chapter 1040
As Olivia stood on the cliff, the wind tousled her hair. Below her, the clouds and mist blocked her view, so she
couldn't make out any figures at all.
Olivia could understand why Ethan would choose this path. It was dangerous, but at least it was manageable as
long as there was no rain.
This path was the only one without poison or wild beasts. The only danger was the weather, but he had experience
in rock climbing.
But it was too dangerous for him to go down blindly without proper equipment. If he were even a little distracted,
he would fall to certain death!

Olivia nodded. "His scent was cut off here. Look, there's also a length of rope. He must have made it before he left."
"I'll go look for him right now."
"No, you're not as familiar with this mountain as I am.
Moreover, you have to get acupuncture for your leg every day, and you're banned from any vigorous activities.
"You don't want to be crippled for life, do you?"
Cyril started, "So you mean ..."
Olivia patted him on the shoulder. "I’ll do it. It's my territory,
after all. I can't let him get in danger."
Moreover, she had already decided to leave soon. She was going to leave the mountain as well.
"Please take good care of Madam Wendy."
"You can't do this, Mrs. Miller. It's too dangerous."
"Just take care of yourself. I've done many dangerous things in the past, so what difference can one more make?"
With that, Olivia used Ethan's rope as she found a foothold before slowly descending. Ethan probably left sometime
near dawn. If not, it would've been too dark and dangerous for him.
It had probably only been about two hours since he left. If she quickened her pace, she could catch up to him.
This wasn't Olivia's first time taking this path.
Back then, when she wanted to train, she made full use of this cliff.
She kept recalling how the nurses and doctors looked at her when Ethan was sent into the emergency room back
then. Krystal's slap also told Olivia that she didn't belong in this world and that she was an outsider.

birth, she started physical fitness training.
After her illness was cured, her current strength was on par with a man's.
Even Cyril was shocked when he saw her flitting along the rocky cliff with great agility. He could see that other than
gaining medical skills, Olivia had also undergone other changes.
Olivia's figure was quickly shrouded by the mist and clouds. The weather was decent today, so there was no risk of
a landslide.
Perhaps because she was progressing too smoothly, not long after she had that thought, the weather started to
change. Dark clouds loomed over the area.
The rain in the mountains would come and go in the blink of an eye. A few raindrops had already started to fall.
Oh no!
