Even After Death Novel (Olivia)

Olivia turned around and glanced at Ethan. Ethan smiled at her. "I have to sort out something. I'll be back soon." Since Olivia was in a hurry to see her father, she wasn't bothered by it. She quickly followed Avery into the room.

Troy and Sean were already by David's side. When Olivia entered the room, their eyes were red and watery. They were grateful to have survived the ordeal, but perhaps they regretted whatever they did in the past too.

They would've been able to avoid all those sufferings if they had found out about the truth sooner.

Olivia's heart was beating rapidly. She finally saw David.

He looked younger than how he seemed to be in the photos or videos back then, but much weaker as well. His face was as pale as a sheet.

He was the father whom she had been looking for all these years. But when Olivia saw her father at this moment, she was dumbfounded as she stood rooted to the spot.

Ever since she knew that Jeff was not her actual father, Olivia had imagined how her real parents and family would be countless times.

Would they love her?

"Olivia, what's wrong?" Avery's gentle voice pulled her back to reality.

"Nothing. Is he Mr. Fordham?"

The conversation between the two attracted the others' attention. David glanced in her direction. He was stunned the moment he saw her.

Although Jacqueline had undergone plastic surgery to look like Olivia, it was impossible for her to look exactly like Olivia.

Olivia looked too much like David's mother. It was a shame that his mother passed away many years ago. That was why his children didn't have much memory of their grandmother.

But how could he possibly forget about all the times he had spent together with his mother back then?

"You, you're..." David wanted to get up the moment he saw Olivia.

Troy explained to him gently, "She's Dr. Fordham, the one I told you about earlier. We've also accepted her as our godsister. Olivia has helped us out a lot this time."

"Is your last name Fordham as well?"

Olivia walked over to him with tears in her eyes.

Perhaps it was because of their father-daughter bond that David felt restless. His heart was beating fast.

"Yes, that's my last name too."

Olivia's mouth was agape. However, she didn't know where to start. It was such a long story to begin with. "Olivia, you have great medical expertise. Please check my dad's condition now."

"Oh, alright." Olivia hurriedly walked over to David. She first checked his pulse to examine his condition.

From the moment she appeared, David's eyes had been fixated on her.

"She really does look a lot like her," he mumbled.

"Dad, what are you talking about? Who does she look like?"

"You guys probably can't remember her anymore. Well, my mother had aged a lot by the time Avery was born. This young lady looks very much like your grandma. If I wasn't so sure that Shana and I only have one daughter, I'd even suspect her identity..."

After Olivia was done checking his pulse, she first explained to them about his condition. Only then did she slowly speak up, "Well then, have you ever suspected that Jacqueline might not actually be your daughter, and perhaps the lady standing in front of you is your long-lost daughter?"

Her tone was calm when she said all of that, but her words took everyone aback.

Everyone was dumbfounded. They started to wonder if what Olivia said was possible.

A woman's hoarse voice rang out from behind them. "No, that's impossible! How could you possibly be the daughter of the Fordham family?"

Olivia turned around. She then happened to meet Leia's eyes, which were filled with shock.
