Chapter 247

Keith and Olivia chatted a little about what was going on in their lives. Olivia had always felt guilty for the fact that Ethan had banished Keith because of her.

Keith’s voice was as gentle as always. He was studying overseas, and he had already gotten used to the new surroundings.

He even got himself a nice girlfriend. When he returned in a few years, he would take over the position of head of the hospital. So, his studies weren’t entirely a bad thing

He arranged a stomach check-up for Olivia tomorrow.

“Olivia, I’m truly glad that you can move on and start life anew.”

“I’ll try my best to live a good life, Keith. Be it a day or a month, I’ll welctomorrow with hope.”

A woman’s voice sounded from the other end of the line. “Keith, I messed up again…”

Smiling, Olivia ended the call. “Go ahead, Keith.”

That night, she finally relaxed. She went and took a bath.

She even poured out swine for herself after that. Standing on the balcony, she listened to the sea breeze as she raised her glass.

She shouted at the sea, “Olivia, you have to live on!”

Early the next morning, she took the day off. She put on a simple white dress, then got Everly to come along to visit their old school.

It had only been a few years, but the surroundings had changed a lot. There were more shops and buildings near the school

now.

The morning breeze ruffled the girls’ ponytails and the green shoots on the trees. The birds twittered as they flew across the blue sky.

Steam rolled out of the roadside stalls, and the delicious smell of food wafted in the air.

The sunlight bounced on Olivia’s bright face. Everything was just right, and she could finally fall in love with this broken world again.

Everly chatted with Olivia, talking about interesting things in the past. When she mentioned Josh, a look of disappointment would appear on Everly’s face.

Olivia patted her on the shoulder. “Eve…”

Everly quickly put on a smile. “I’m fine. I’m not as weak as you think.

“I’ve been quite busy these days. I’m busy signing stuff and getting used to the new company. I’m also trying hard to get close to my colleagues and improve myself.

“I thought I would be sad, but the sadness is taken over by the trivial things in life. I’ve even started to forget the things I thought I would remember forever.”

Everly took Olivia’s hand. “Liv, I believe you can do it too. Give yourself stime. You deserve the best.”

“Yes, I believe it too.”

Going to a nearby flower shop, Olivia bought two bouquets. She gave one to Everly. Then, they held the bouquets against each other.

“Cheers to our wonderful life.”

Olivia had her check-up done with the doctor Keith had arranged for her. Once back home, she put the flowers into a vase.

Looking at the pretty flowers, she smiled.

When she gave herself the flowers, she also vowed to pursue freedom.

The results would be out in 28 hours. Olivia slept soundly that night. The dark sea no longer swallowed her in her dreams.

Instead, she saw a child running toward her in a field of flowers. The child placed a flower crown on her head.

“Please be happy, Mommy.”

Olivia hugged the child. But when she looked at the child’s face, she found herself gazing into Connor’s eyes.

The dream ended suddenly. Olivia looked at the sunlight outside the window, smiling in exasperation. “Why did I dream of that child again?” she wondered.

She drew the curtains back, then reached out to touch the sunlight shining in.

When her heart was warm, she noticed that the sunlight was warm as well.

After getting ready, she went to the company. She was ready for her new journey.

In the lobby, she saw Ethan, who was surrounded by people. It was a stark contrast to her, who was all alone.

Like many other employees, she greeted him politely, “Mr. Miller.”

He nodded, then looked away. He passed by her without emotion.

It was as if the two never knew each other.

She walked toward the crowded elevators meant for everyone else. Ethan headed for his exclusive elevator instead.

They were like parallel lines that would never meet. This was the relationship they should have.

It was only then that she understood. The most cruel words in this world weren’t “I’m sorry” or “I hate you”. They were “We can never go back to how it was before”.

Olivia pressed the button to close the elevator doors. She completely shut Ethan’s figure out of her life.
