Married to My Enemy's Blood novel Chapter 11

“Both of her parents were marine workers, and they died there because of their research. Their only wish was for her to live a peaceful life, to get married and settle down. Meeting you, marrying you, and having children was in line with her parents‘ wishes. But for the past ten years, she never gave up her research on the ocean. There was one project she never let you touch–a medicine to control marine organisms. Her determination, decisiveness, composure, and strength are heights you could never reach. The fact that she was willing to stay with you in New York was already a blessing for you, but you didn’t cherish it.”

Augustus’s tears were full of pain.

His throat hurt terribly, unbearably so.

“Grandpa, can you help me? I don’t want Ophelia to go to that place. Thirty years is just too long.”

The old man replied, “I can’t help you. I don’t even know where that place is.”

Augustus immediately pleaded with the old man: “Grandpa, I’m begging you. I know you have a way. Please.”

But the old man only sighed.

“Gus, you’ve already betrayed Ophelia. Why force it any further?”

“She is my

life!”

The old man still did not agree.

Augustus kept kneeling.

The old man had a vast network of connections.

Augustus could only beg the old man.

He knelt for three days straight.

Finally, the old man made a phone call.

But after the call was over, he still shook his head.

“Gus, kneeling here won’t help. I had people look into it–she’s already gone, and Jules was taken

with her. There’s no signal there, no contact with the outside world, completely isolated. Once someone enters, the door is shut for good. Only after thirty years can they come out. Even if you could find the place, you couldn’t open the path to the ocean.”

Augustus went mad.

He frantically burned through a lot of money, pouring company funds into searching for Ophelia.

Three months later, the company started having all kinds of financial problems.

Moreover, half the data for the patents he and Ophelia had worked on together was done by Ophelia. The lab was destroyed in a fire, and he no longer had the ability to complete the work on

his own.

Augustus’s company, the Reynolds Group, ran into serious trouble.

The old man directly asked Augustus to sign a sales contract.

No matter what, Augustus refused to sell.

One day, someone claimed to have news about Ophelia, offering information in exchange for

shares.

He agreed.

But when he met this person.

“Augustus, I’m Ophelia’s friend, Ronald Vaughn.”

Augustus knew who this man was.

He had once liked Ophelia.

Ronald said, “She never told you, but I grew up with her. For the past ten years, I’ve watched Ophelia love you.”

Augustus’s expression darkened. He said, “Where is she? Do you really have news, or are you lying to me?”

“I really do, but there’s something we need to settle first.”

Before Augustus could react, Ronald punched him.

In no time, Augustus’s face was bleeding from Ronald’s beating.

Ronald looked at the battered Augustus.

But he just smiled.

“Back then, Ophelia spent a total of 10,000,000 dollars to buy back those photos, but her account only had the annual salary the Reynolds Group gave her. She only ever used your card once. Augustus, the collapse of the Reynolds Group was inevitable, because Ophelia was the core of your company. I can tell you where she is, but you have to sign this contract.”

Augustus saw that the contract stated he must unconditionally give Julian to Ronald,

“Where is she!”

Augustus, furious, grabbed Ronald by the collar.

“Didn’t you leave when I married Ophelia five years ago? Then get out of my life for good.”

Ronald said, “Augustus, sign it and I’ll tell you where she is.

Augustus finally picked up the pen and signed.

Ronald said, “Ophelia is in the Pacific, on a small island that leads directly into the deep sea.‘

་་

“Augustus, you’ll never be able to go there, but I can. In ten days, I’ll take care of the last things Ophelia left with you.”

Ronald tapped the contract with his finger.

“Once the Reynolds Group is gone, I’ll leave to find Ophelia, and you’ll never have the right to enter that place.”

Augustus immediately grabbed Ronald.

“Help me give her a message: I’ll wait for her to come out, forever.”

Ronald only smiled with a curl of his lips.
