Everly's face paled when she heard Henry's voice. She quickly took off the blindfold. The man standing before her was none other than Henry.
She stuttered, "W-WWhy … are y-you here?"
Henry smiled. "I've been missing you every day you've been gone, Ms. Hilton. It seems like you're having a good time on the island. Have you forgotten about me?"
The maids read the situation and quickly left. The two children didn't know what was going on. They stared at Henry with their bright, round eyes.
Under the innocent gaze of the children, Henry had no choice but to suppress his impatience and let go of Everly.
"You're Zack, and you're Alicia, right?"
The two children looked at him with docile expressions. Suddenly, Alicia blurted out, "Dad?"
Henry was amused. He crouched and picked her up. She was like a cute kitten looking for its parent.
"Dear child, I'm not your dad. Don't be mistaken."
Disappointment flashed in Alicia's eyes. Where was their father?
Henry played with Alicia for a short while. The affection in his eyes was apparent.
Everly looked at him in shock. She recalled a conversation she had with him when they just started dating.
She had asked him naively if he liked children, and his answer had been resolute.
"I don't like children. They're annoying."
Then, he put down the magazine he was reading and looked at her.
"Ms. Hilton, you're a smart woman. You wouldn't do anything stupid, right?"
He was smiling, but he had a threatening gaze. He didn't like children, much less children born from a lover.
So, she started practicing on poultry and cattle. But those weren't human, so it wasn't the same. After Ethan heard that Olivia wanted to dissect human bodies, several ships stopped at the island the following day.
Everly, being the lover of food she was, thought the ships carried goods. One look and she vomited. It turned out the ships were carrying human bodies.
The bodies were of people who died recently and were frozen. They were for Olivia to practice dissection.
The bodies were buried at a nearby hill after they were dissected. Everly didn't even dare to go to the hill after that.
Olivia knew she was afraid, so she had people plant some banana trees on the hill. That caused Everly to shudder when she saw bananas.
"It's …" Everly gagged.
She looked away and said, "It's that bastard, Henry."
With the bloody scalpel in her hand, Olivia asked, "Do you need me to stab him for you?"
