That's how a good wife should behave

Olivia who was watching everything that was happening through the projection screen, suddenly had her heart tighten when she saw Alex dash towards Liam. She couldn't believe what Alex set out to do. 

Then it could almost burst out of her chest when Alex was invisibly grabbed by the telekinetic power that Liam released from his palm. And just when the palace-spirit that was also watching everything from the screen would do something, they suddenly saw Alex drive the sword that he tightly wielded directly into the chest of Liam. 

Then shock appeared in their faces. They couldn't understand how Alex was able to pull that off.

They couldn't comprehend what really happened, since the stubborn and persistent power of illusion that emanated from the phantasmforce energy wasn't acting on them, only on Liam.
