Lyla noticed her trembling hands. She turned around and pulled her arm. “Mommy, what’s wrong?”Lyla did not have much of an impression about John. She only knew that he was close to Uncle Zac and Mommy, but she had no idea about his relationship with Olivia. Thus, she naturally did not know why Olivia had such a huge reaction, but she was worried when she saw her mommy’s pale face.“Huh? Oh, I'm fine.”Olivia regained her composure and lowered her head to smile at her. Then, she turned to Sam. “I'm fine, don’t worry. Let’s go and put down the flowers.”The two kids nodded and walked toward the front and stopped with her.Olivia put down the flowers and looked at the man in the photo while murmuring in a voice that only she could hear. “Johnny, Lyla is your daughter. I guess you still owe me more in this life.”That being said, she told Lyla to give a bow and brought them to sit aside. “Liv, you haven’t slept for days. Let me send you home to rest.”Looking at Olivia getting
After a while, the reporter raised his head and looked at the person who made the move. "Ian, are you annoyed because you can't accept the fact that your sister and your brother-in-law are having an affair but she refused to acknowledge you as her younger brother?”That being said, he suddenly smiled. “You hate your sister, right?”He initially thought that Ian would just keep quiet like the rest, but he unexpectedly got a heavy punch in his face.“I'm telling you to shut up! I won't let anyone go if you dare insult my sister!”The reporter was in pain and raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, but he did not show any intention of restraining himself.“Hah, the expressions on your faces are indeed interesting. What a good show.”He then took a glance at the other people present. “Why are you all keeping quiet? I pointed out facts, no? Phoebe James is Olivia Larson, and she's having an affair with her ex-husband. Oh right, she also escaped from prison tryi
Just when everyone was still in silence, Milo suddenly stood up and walked in front. He looked at the reporter briefly. “Sir, this is a funeral. Is it appropriate for you to make a scene here?”Before the reporter got to say anything, he continued, “Cursing at a woman non-stop in a mourning hall, this is what you call revenge?”The reporter was taken aback before nodding. "Yes, she caused me to become like this. Why can’t I take revenge on her? Now the man has died, she should bear the consequences! I must lift the veil of her hypocrisy and let everyone see the truth clearly."“I don’t know about the truth you're speaking, but I can help you to get revenge if you wish."The reporter frowned and could not seem to identify the reliability of Milo’s words. “What do you mean?”Milo waved his hand, and a few policemen in uniform walked in. They handcuffed the reporter. “Please come with us.”The reporter was instantly pissed. “Let me go! What are you trying to do? Are you trying
“What?”Fred reacted first and looked at her in shock. “Liv, don’t be reckless. In such a situation, you shouldn’t be…”“I’ve made up my mind.”“Liv, don’t get influenced by that lunatic. He can’t do anything about it.”Olivia lowered her head and bit her lip. “It’s not about him.”“Liv…”Fred wanted to say something, but Ian interrupted him.“Fred, just drive.”He took a look at Olivia through the rearview mirror but did not say anything.He did not know what his sister was thinking, but he knew that she would never do things impulsively. She would always have her reason. After all, he had been comforting himself with this logic all these years. Otherwise, he would have grown to resent her.…As they were worried that there might be reporters at the hospital, they went back to Elegance Gardens directly. Olivia settled the two kids and made sure they were asleep before walking out of the bedroom. The moment she got downstairs, she saw the two guys sitting on the sofa
As soon as these words came out, the air condensed instantly, and there was a dead silence in the room.Olivia shivered for a second and froze on the spot.She really wanted to go over and hug Ian, but she felt unqualified. She did not even have the courage to move her legs.‘Yeah, I can never compensate Ian.‘He should hate me.’She bit her lower lip tightly as she looked at her two younger brothers who were wrestling each other. She felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart.After a long while, she finally said with a hoarse voice, “Ian, do you want to resurrect the Larson family?”Hearing these words, Ian stopped his movements and let go of Fred. He then stood up and sneered at Olivia.“So you think that I'm reacting like this just for money?”He looked up at the ceiling and smiled wryly. “Liv, is this who I am in your opinion? The only thing I wanted was to stay by your side just like when I was young. Is it that difficult?”Olivia felt as if she suddenly had a lump in he
"Are you and Mr. Quinton getting a divorce?"Milo seemed surprised as he advised, "We can leave together. You don't have to get divorced."Hearing Milo mention Zac, Olivia heaved a sigh of relief and smiled awkwardly."It's not because of him."Milo did not say anything more about it but only sighed. "As long as you've thought it through. I'm only afraid someone's going to harm you again. Be careful with the kids and don't go to the hospital for a while."Hearing Milo's fatherly advice, Olivia felt guilty and answered in acknowledgment."Yeah, I will. Thank you, Sir.""Alright, stop thanking me all the time. I'm relieved to know you're okay. Call me if you need anything."Just as Milo was about to hang up, Olivia suddenly called out to him. "Sir.""Hmm?""Are... Aren't you curious?""Curious about what?"Olivia bit her lip as she clenched her hands. "Aren't you curious whether I'm Olivia?"Silence instantly fell on the other end of the line once she finished speaking.Whe
Elegance Gardens.Olivia took a nap in the afternoon and had trouble sleeping that night, so she stood on the balcony to get some air.The winter wind was cold. As soon as she opened the door, she felt a chill in her body that could not help making her shiver.She looked up at the cold moon and gave a bitter smile.The thought of the man turned her stomach upside down, making her breathless.He was dead, and there were still people refusing to let him go.She seemed to have been the gentlest of all the people he had offended when he was alive.She did not make a scene and even brought Lyla to see him. Maybe she was too softhearted all along.While she was thinking about it, the phone rang."Hello, Mrs. Quinton. I didn't interrupt your rest, did I?"Olivia glanced at the time. It was already 11 PM. How hypocritical to call at this hour and ask if they interrupted her?"What is it?""We met last time at school. Do you remember?"Olivia did not want to talk nonsense, so she a
Olivia frowned and reached out to pull him up again. However, she failed to make him move after yanking him for a long time because she was weak. She could only ask Wilbur for help."Wilbur, are you going to stand there and watch? Are you not going to help me?"Wilbur finally came to help after she said so. He helped Zac into the wheelchair.Olivia glanced at the car nearby and said, "Park the car in the garage. I'll push him inside.""Yes."Zac did not say another word during the whole process. His face was livid.Since Zac's problem with his legs and his infrequent visits to Elegance Gardens, he and Mrs. Simmons had switched rooms and moved to the ground floor.Olivia wheeled him into the room and turned on the light."Don't turn on the lights."She paused and turned to look at him, his shadow only dimly visible by the light in the corridor.She could not see his expression, but his deep eyes were like the abyss, making her scared for some reason."Zac, it's hard to see
