Chapter 1057
Ethan returned to his and Olivia's marital home in the past. Ever since Olivia left, Ethan
had moved back in. Everything was maintained the way it had been when she left back
then.
Ethan had also renovated the baby room from back then. Sometimes, he and Connor
would stay here.
Every day, Madam Burgess would place some beautiful bouquets on the dining table,
awaiting the return of the lady of the house someday.
Perhaps because Ethan knew that Olivia was also in this city, the empty house didn't seem
that cold anymore.
Brent eagerly followed Ethan to the study, reporting recent news to him.
One of them caught Ethan's attention. "Did you just say that Golden Shark died? How?"
Ethan couldn't possibly let Golden Shark go just like that, but before he could do anything
about it, he received news that Golden Shark was done for.
Brent showed Ethan the post on the dark web a month ago.
In the post, Golden Shark's head stood out a lot. Also, the author of the post had tactics
similar to Ethan's when he tackled his enemies in the past.
No. 100 was a code that referred to none other than Golden Shark.

"Septem."
"It's her."
Ethan rubbed between his eyebrows. He had heard of that name before. Septem was the
most outstanding member who had come out of Devil's Island in recent years.
Ethan originally wanted to take her into his fold. With proper training, she could become
an outstanding female agent.
There were many skilled people under him, but there were simply too few female agents
who were capable enough.
After all, capable female agents were very much in demand in the entire industry. Women
could do everything men were capable of, but men might not be able to do what women
could.
Sadly, Septem chose The Black Ravens in the end. Ethan missed a golden opportunity.
Golden Shark had offended quite a lot of people, so it was only reasonable that someone
paid to get him killed.
The Black Ravens had their rules to abide by, so they wouldn't use the same tactics Ethan
carried out. Also, even the code was based on the system he established.
"Did you figure out who Septem is?"
"For now, we only know that Septem is female, and she was already promoted to the S
rank. I'm afraid that only the insiders know her true identity."
Ethan glanced at the time the post was published. It was about half a day after he was
poisoned.
No matter how he looked at it, there must be more to Septem than met the eye. Was she
targeting him?
"Get someone to keep an eye on her."
"Understood."
"What about the Kingston family?"
"Yale thought that you'd die for real, so he was overjoyed. He did quite a lot of things in
the past month, and he kept trying to win over our people."
Ethan lit a cigarette. There was a cold expression on his face as he said, "Good. See who
has betrayed us. It's a great opportunity to purge them. There's no use keeping people
who are disloyal, after all."
"Understood."
As soon as Ethan came back, the tides in Aldenvine turned yet again.
Ethan stood on a skyscraper with his hands behind his back. With a cold gaze, he looked
at the traffic beneath him.

The snowy scene was beautiful, so much so that it could hide all the filth.
It was time to end this.
When Ethan thought that Olivia was also in this bustling city, he felt warmth surging within
his chest.
He wondered where she was.
He committed his oath to memory. He didn't investigate Olivia's whereabouts on purpose.
Their lives had finally crossed paths, but now, they went their separate ways again.
At that moment, Olivia was lying in a bathtub, enjoying a bath. She examined her body,
which was filled with marks Ethan had left behind.
It hadn't even been a day since they parted ways, but she began to miss him.
She decided that women shouldn’t be too focused on love.
She downed the remaining wine in the glass.
Olivia liked her slightly tipsy condition. She seemed to be drunk, but she was unusually
sober.
After putting on her bathrobe, she opened the door and walked out.
A man was sitting on the couch.
"Long time no see." Olivia approached him boldly.
Jack's gaze fell upon the small area of her exposed skin below her neck. The ambiguous
hickeys were a bit too much for him.
"I heard from Colin that you two got back together."
