"Okay!" Oliver beamed, his eyes as clear and pure as crystal.

However, his eyes shone with concern and sadness as he took Everly's hand and started walking inside.

When would his parents make up? Could it be that they need to fight to make peace, just like Lily said? How could he make that happen?

Along the way, both Everly and Oliver had their own plans and arrived at the office. Annie closed the door for them with a smile, and soon, they were the only two in the room.

Everly noticed that Oliver was deep within his own thoughts and decided not to disturb him. Instead, she simply poured him a glass of warm water to drink.

Oliver was an obedient child and finished the glass of water swiftly like a small kitten. Amused, Everly started chuckling.

Oliver did not realize it until Everly wiped his hands with a wet tissue. He stared at Everly as she giggled and started giggling himself as well.

"Why are you smiling, Oliver? You look so happy," Everly asked cheerfully as she pinched Oli

    Everly had not said anything. Her eyes turned red at the thought that Oliver might be wary of telling her because he still could not trust her.Noticing her discomfort, Oliver held her hand with both his hands and said, "Aunt Violet, I mean it. My dad misses my mom. He told me that Mom is sick and is getting treated, so she couldn't come back to see me, but… I knew."Sorrow crept up his face as he continued, "I knew that my mom's grave is at the Westside Cemetery. I feel sad, and the others are worried that I will be sad, so they lied to me, saying that my mom is only away to treat her illness."He kept holding Everly's hand and deadpanned, "So I pretend like I didn't know anything. I told myself that Mom would come back someday and that I should just think of her as being away to treat her illness. That way, it works out for all of us."Everly felt as though her heart had been torn into pieces. She had never imagined for Oliver to know everything. Though she was not truly dead, Ol

    Oliver drew a label on the front of the box and wrote two names on it messily before looking up at her. "I found out that Mom is dead, and Dad is only staying behind because he needs to take care of me, but he misses her and has never forgotten about her."He handed the drawing to her and continued, "Aunt Violet, this is the box that had my parents' figurines in it."Everly was overwhelmed by her emotions and could not react immediately. Oliver might only know that she was 'dead', but she knew more about what happened."Aunt Violet?" Seeing that she had not accepted the drawing, Oliver called out once again."Oh!" Everly snapped out of it and took the drawing for a look. One glance was all it took to strike a blow directly to her heart.This box…Tears overflowed and dripped onto the label on the box inside the drawing."Why are you crying, Aunt Violet?" Oliver panicked and leaned closer in concern.However, she could not respond. She tried her best to contain her emotions, but

    Annie wanted to throw the bouquet away when they first arrived in the morning, but Everly told her to keep it and put it in a vase by the window in her office."There aren't enough people showing their will to side with us yet, so we need to keep up the act to show those who are still observing," she said to Annie.She thought that it was her true thought at the time, but now…she suddenly became confused. Did she really think so, or…?The shadow wavered under the light as she patted Oliver gently on the back. Her eyes were fixated on the drawing. At that very moment, she could not understand what she was feeling.Oliver had already fallen asleep in her arms, and she spent the rest of the afternoon staring at his adorable face as he slept until she heard someone knocking on the door. She looked up by reflex and then…She saw Carson.He was looking at her, his dark eyes filled with her reflection. "I'm here to pick Oliver up," he said with a steady voice that sounded exactly the sa

    Everly followed his gaze and saw that he was looking at the gown resting at the corner.For the past year, countless of her designs had been released into the market, with the exception of that gown. It had been with her the entire time. Many who had worked with her asked whether the gown had a special meaning. Some asked her why she had suddenly decided to start designing and how she managed to be successful so quickly, but she never explained what happened to anyone.She began designing merely to distract herself because the healing process was agonizing and she could only white-knuckle through it.She had not thought of actually bringing her designs to life or becoming a famous artist. However, one day, Logan came to her ward and suggested that she sell her designs after seeing her drafts."When you heal, you need a proper identity and financial capability in order to provide your child a bright future," he said.In the end, she agreed. The small gown she made resting at the co

    Perhaps she had not figured it out. If so, then she shall take the time to do so. Perhaps she simply needed time.Everly reached for the movie ticket and set it aside. She said, "I will go directly to the movie theater, and as for Oliver…I will pick him up in the future when I have the chance."She desperately wanted to pick Oliver off school, but what might others think if she did so without going public about her true identity? She didn't know, and she did not dare to gamble on it."Alright," Carson said."It's time to get back to work, Mister Baxter. I'd like to get back at it if that's all for now." She instantly distanced herself and said, "Please leave.""Okay," he said and left obediently, leaving Everly alone inside the office to stare at the movie ticket with mixed feelings.Without her noticing, Annie stepped in and did not know what to say when she saw how dazed Everly was.Annie had been outside the door the entire time out of concern that Carson might force himsel

    Robbied studied Alice thoughtfully. Though Alice was foolish, she would not dare to do anything to Oliver near the elevator with surveillance cameras everywhere. He nodded and said, "I will wait there. Call me if you need me.""Okay." Oliver nodded.Robbie stood in a distance where he could not hear them but would be able to see what they were doing.Oliver sighed a long breath and reached up to tap Alice on the shoulder. "Aunt Alice, there's something I want to tell you."Alice was taken by surprise. After all, Oliver never let others touch him, and this was the first time he took the initiative to touch her.With her anger earlier completely behind her, Alice immediately squatted down to look Oliver in the eyes with a smile. "What would you like to tell me, Oliver?""It's about Aunt Violet." He said, "I like her and so does my dad. Dad hasn't managed to date her yet, but we will all be together as a family one day.When he noticed the change in expression on Alice's face, he

    He had prepared countless dinners and had taken Oliver to her place for dinner multiple times. He would always bring food over and offer to prepare the ingredients.The original Hello Kitty apron had been thrown away by John, so Carson bought another two with Hello Kitty patterns on them. When Oliver asked why he was getting two, Carson simply cast him a look.After that, Oliver told Everly in secret, "Dad bought a set of couple-wear aprons. However, the apron doesn't come in my size, I don't get one… Dad only wants to be dressed in couple-wear with you and ignores me. He's so bad!"Soon after, Carson had a few sets of family wear custom-made for all three of them. Oliver was thrilled and kept pushing for Everly to wear them.Everly could not possibly refuse, despite knowing that this was Carson's scheme."Miss Violet, Mister Baxter wants me to ask if you can make time for him after work today." Robbie's voice pulled Everly's mind back to the present."Is there something he needs

    On the other end, Carson's absence had been noticed, and everyone in the office was shocked."Throughout all these years, there had only been once when he postponed a meeting. The meeting this time has been postponed, but what's happened?""I don't know, but he and Violet seem pretty close lately. Maybe they are going to get together?""Didn't Violet reject Mister Baxter? Why would they get together?""She was just playing hard to get! There's a high chance that Mister Baxter is absent today to prepare some kind of surprise for Violet. After all, it's February 14th today. It's Valentine's Day!""That makes sense!"Everyone was busy gossiping, while Alice, who heard them from the turn of a corner, was driven mad with anger. In the end, she had not said a word and turned around in frustration."Spending Valentine's Day together? Preparing surprises?" Alice clenched her fists. "Keep dreaming, Violet!"She glanced at the others one last time before hurrying away.…Meanwhile, Car

    Everly wondered, 'Why does he look so pitiful? Is he going to ask me to be with me as he did before?'Meanwhile, Carson moved his eyes from her to the sunset on the horizon and said, "It's late."She looked across at the sea and the sky. The glorious declining sun gilded the sky.The salty sea wind swept over them.They gazed at the sunset until the fish suddenly struggled and startled Everly.It had been quietly staying in her hand for a while. She had forgotten that she was holding the fish. Thus, she subconsciously let go of the fish and shook Carson's hands off.The fish flopped back into the water and waved its tail to flee away."Oh, no. The fish has escaped. Dad, hurry up and catch it!" Oliver yelled. He had been squatting on the side so as not to disturb his parents. Carson and Oliver then chased after the fish.Everly slowly got up and stood there. The father and the son in white T-shirts were surrounding the big puddle. Everly felt strange while watching them.She wa

    She was a little embarrassed. After all, they hadn't been so close to each other for a long time. She felt a bit uncomfortable.So, she found a random topic. "Oliver still hasn't come back?""Maybe he couldn't find the bucket," he said, his chest vibrating. Not knowing how to pick up the conversation, she just looked at him. "Put the fish down," he said again after about three seconds. "But it will slip away," she blurted out. He paused, nodded, and hummed.Actually, she could place it somewhere dry rather than in the water... Then it couldn't slip away...She found herself so stupid. But she couldn't take back her words...She wondered, bit the bullet, and awkwardly held the fish. Should she say anything to defuse the awkward situation?She thought for a moment and asked, "What's your plan? I mean your career.""I haven't laid it out yet," he replied frankly. "I've been working for too long, and it's time to take a break. In the past, I didn't have time to hang

    Everly immediately put the crab into the small bucket.At this time, the bucket was filled with many crabs. Oliver looked inside and wore a bright smile."Wow! We got a lot of crabs today! My bucket is almost full!" Oliver said and looked back. When he saw the bucket in his dad's hand, Oliver took it and dumped all the crabs inside his own bucket into it. He then pushed it to Everly and said, "Wow. Aunt Violet caught so many crabs today. You are awesome!"Everly froze. She looked at Oliver's smiling face and understood what he meant.Oliver wanted her to take all the credit for catching those crabs."Oliver...""Aunt Violet! Look over there. There are bubbles coming out of that small hole. Let's go over there. There must be something in there!" As he said, Oliver carried his bucket and a small shovel and trotted over in his slippers. He ran to the hole and exclaimed, "Aunt Violet, come on! It is a big fish!""Go ahead. He likes playing with you," Carson said to Everly when she w

    "How do you know if they have contact in private?" The man asked as their car was waiting for a green light. The man's consecutive retorts annoyed Lisa. She looked in the rearview mirror at the man with chill eyes. "What do you mean? Are you trying to deliberately piss me off?" "No." The man replied. Then he paused for a few seconds and changed the subject. "So what are you going to do next?" 'Let Everly crash down to the hell!' During these days all their tactics were covert. They only took some subtle moves to test Carson, to see what was in Carson's mind. Now that Lisa had learned about it, then the next step she was up to was to put Everly through hell! "What's going on with Violet's studio now?" Lisa asked. "According to the information we got, it won't be long before Violet Studio and Baxter Group's collaboration on 'The Angel' is finished." The man replied. Before Lisa was about to respond, suddenly, her phone vibrated. Buzz--Lisa picked up her phone to check t

    Everly, Carson, and Oliver were playing on the beach. Meanwhile, Lisa came out of her villa to a car and talked to someone on the phone.She got into the passenger seat, smiled at the man in the driver's seat, and said, "I've just heard that the opposition faction of the Baxter Group changed their minds. They want to get Carson back."The man started the car without speaking. Lisa made up her face, smiled contentedly while looking into the mirror at her delicate figures, and continued, "I knew that the Baxter Group couldn't do well without Carson and that they would give in!"The car's tires squealed.The man suddenly braked."What are you doing?" Lisa growled at the man with a frown, hurriedly grabbing something to steady herself."Lisa, what the hell do you want?" the man said resignedly, "didn't you say that you just wanted to help your family out of trouble? I don't understand what you're thinking. Do you love Carson? Are you proud of him?""What's the problem with this?"

    While waving at her, Oliver murmured and walked in with Carson.Everly nodded with a smile. With the clothes in her hand, she got into the car and changed her clothes.The clothes were very simple, which were just a big white T-shirt and a pair of casual shorts. Looking at the clothes, she couldn't help wondering what Carson and Oliver would wear.She walked out, with her mind wandering. She saw Carson and Oliver not far away, both of whom were wearing a white vest and a pair of shorts to their knees. The color and style of their clothes were the same, except for the size.They two seemed to be talking about something, with buckets in their hands. Carson held a big bucket while Oliver held a small one. There was another bucket on the ground, obviously prepared for Everly.Noticing her coming, Oliver turned around and looked at her. "Aunt Violet!"Carson also looked up at her.Her heart was thumping faster inexplicably.‘He seems to be closer to me these days.’Maybe it was bec

    The shopkeeper felt embarrassed. He looked at Oliver and replied, "What? I couldn’t do that. Don’t talk nonsense."Oliver pouted and didn’t say anything. Carson patted his head and then looked at the shopkeeper.The shopkeeper already understood his meaning. So then he handed three sets of clothes to Everly and Carson, "You can rinse over there.""Thank you." Everly nodded, then they went there together.After lifting the curtain of the outdoor shower, Carson and Oliver both frowned slightly and looked at her at the same time.Everly was a little confused, so she asked, "What’s wrong?""You can change the clothes in the car." Carson opened his mouth.Oliver nodded and explained, "Right, Aunt Violet. This place has some leaks. It’s okay for me and dad, but it's not okay for you, and there’s no mud on you. It's just me falling into the mud puddle."Everly looked at him and then at Oliver, understanding what they meant.She nodded and pinched Oliver's face with a smile, "Okay,

    She immediately quickened her pace to rush over and snatched Oliver from Carson's hand."Hmm..."Before Oliver jumped into her arms and complained to her, Carson's cold voice sounded, "Stop. You're covered in mud."Oliver stopped immediately, looking down at himself, then he glared at Carson. Just a few seconds later, he sat down on a small rock and pointed to the big mud puddle beside him. "Aunt Violet, I just fell into it."Everly glanced in the direction that Oliver pointed to. There was indeed a mud puddle and a human shape was still there. Oliver's father just wiped his face. Otherwise, he could not be recognized.Looking at him sitting on that small rock and his aggrieved look, Everly thought he was so cute and couldn’t help laughing out loud, "Puff..."Hearing her laugh, Oliver turned his head. Everly immediately tried to hold back her laughter, but she failed."Ah! Aunt Violet, you laughed!” Oliver directly came down from the rock, sat in the mud, and childishly showed

    Yet the meeting room was quiet. No one spoke.If there had been a way to settle the matter, they would have dealt with it many days ago.And if they gave advice but failed in the end, they might have to take the blame."Why do you all keep silent? Didn't you have a lot of ideas at the very beginning?" the leader roared, slapping the table.However, no one answered.After a minute, someone trembled and said, "Then ... shall we find Carson and make him the president again?""What are you talking about?" The leader was even angrier.But another person said, "I think he's right. The share price is falling. We have less and less money. If it goes on like this, none of us can stand it. We'd better get Carson back... When he managed the company, the share price was rising.""You're looking down on yourself and flattering Carson!" the leader growled, "and the share price is falling. Their losses must be bigger than ours. They should be the most anxious!""But..." the person who had be
