Chapter 197

Chloe answered without hesitation, “Am I wrong? I’ve heard that you’re still living together. Liv, do you understand the concept of a divorce?

“You’re still young, so stop this now. If not, you’ll bring trouble to yourself.

“You’ll also cause Ethan and Marina to be mocked. There should only be two people in a healthy relationship.”

Olivia was no longer able to tell if the pain cfrom her heart or her stomach. She felt like ants were gnawing at her, causing her pain all over.

Olivia held in her sadness. She had so much she wanted to say, but instead, she smiled and said, “So that’s how I am in your eyes.”

“Mother, don’t yell at Olivia. She’s still young, so it’s natural for her to make mistakes.

“We should tolerate each others‘ mistakes since we’re a family. I’m okay with it.”

At this moment, Marina’s display of generosity was a sharp contrast to Olivia’s pettiness.

Chloe said with a righteous tone, “Don’t worry, Marina. I gave birth to Liv. I will give you a satisfactory explanation. I won’t allow her to cbetween you and Ethan anymore.”

Olivia felt like all her organs were bleeding. She even felt the taste of blood in her mouth.

But she didn’t want to show her weakness to these people. So she held it back.

The taste of blood was spreading in her mouth.

She was about to speak when Ethan said coldly,” She wasn’t in the wrong. I was the one who wanted to take care of her.”

“Ethan, I know you’re a passionate and loyal person. You don’t have to lie for her sake.

“She has been a liar since she was young. I know her too well. She’ll do anything to get what she wants.”

Olivia was clenching her fingers so hard her knuckles were pale. Even the corner of her clothes had been distorted by her grip.

She didn’t want to explain herself anymore. It was true. She did pretend to be sick once when she was young.

That was because a classmate of hers said that when she was sick, her mother, who was usually busy, took a day off to stay

home.

She would take care of her gently and make her anything she wanted to eat.

That was why she pretended to be sick. All she wanted was her mother’s attention.

If only her mother would put her palm on her forehead. If only her mother would look at her with concern. If only her mother would ask her if she was well.

She would have been satisfied for a long time.

But her childish pretense was easily exposed.

She didn’t give up. She spent a whole night in a cold bath. She developed a high fever the next day.

She thought that her mother would definitely care for her gently. She wondered if her mother would bake her a cake.

She even decided on the cake she wanted to have. A teddy bear cream cake.

But when Chloe went to her bed, she looked down at the flushed face.

She said coldly, “Why are you pretending to be sick again? Why are you so naughty? Send her to school, Victor.”

“But Mrs. Fordham, she doesn’t look so good. Maybe she is really sick.”

“How could she be sick? She is such a healthy child. She’s definitely pretending.

“You don’t have to send her to school today. Let her walk there herself.”

Chloe left after she said that. She didn’t care even when Olivia was calling out to her with her hoarse voice, telling her that she wasn’t pretending.

She walked away as decisively as the day she left for good. She didn’t turn back even once.

She would’ve known that Olivia wasn’t pretending if she put her palm on her forehead, but she wasn’t even willing to do such a simple thing.

When she was walking, Olivia fell into the snow. She asked in a whisper when Victor carried her up, “Mr. Victor, do you think my mother loves me?”

Her words were heartwrenching to Victor. So much so that he almost couldn’t speak.

“Ms. Olivia, there isn’t a mother in the world who doesn’t love her children.”

Olivia’s face lit up. “Is that so? I didn’t lie to her this time. Can you please tell her that I am really sick this time?

“I really want to eat the teddy bear cream cake that she makes.”
