Later, she became the close accomplice of Michiko - that is, the owner of Michiko's Garden, a spa business. Returning to Eden, she fought for her destiny and ascended to the throne as Queen Olivia after killing Queen Michiko, yet relinquished the throne to follow her childhood friend and love, Paco.
