Chapter 581
Olivia reflexively tried to move back, but she forgot there was an open wardrobe behind her. She hadplaced herself in an even smaller space.
She pushed against Ethan’s chest with both her arms and was blushing. Unfortunately, she couldn’t geton her phone and ask the internet what she should do in this situation.
Ethan tapped her lightly on the nose. “It’s cold outside. You should wear more clothes.”
Then, he let go of her and moved away. Olivia was finally able to breathe fresh air again.
She said, “Alright.”
She sighed in relief. She thought he had wanted to do something to her.
Ethan moved out of the closet and said, “Breakfast is ready.”
“Okay, I’m coming.”
Olivia waited for her face to stop blushing before she headed downstairs frantically for breakfast. Shewent out with Ethan
after the meal.
Looking at the expensive car parked outside, Olivia gulped and asked, “Is this your car?”
“It’s yours too.”
Olivia got into the car nervously. It seemed like Ethan wasn’t after her money, or was the bankruptcy ofher family faked?
She was in a daze as she stared at the cars driving past.
It snowed heavily last night, so the city was covered in snow. It made for a dreamy landscape. The carquickly arrived at a downtown area before stopping at an alleyway. There weren’t any skyscrapers inthis area, mostly just single-story buildings.
“Does this place trigger your memory? You used to live here before you were married.”
Olivia looked at the bustling streets with stalls and food trucks. Nothing came to mind, but she felt likeeverything was
familiar.
She had mixed feelings when they arrived at the Fordham residence.
“Let’s go in.” Ethan pushed the gate open. The place was frequently cleaned, so there weren’t anydead leaves or fallen branches. Even the snow on the paths had been swept away.
The plum tree in the yard was in full bloom. A white cat rushed out from a corner, scaring Olivia.
The cat purred.
“Don’t be afraid. This is Snowball, the cat you grew up
with.”
Olivia crouched down, and Snowball jumped into her arms. They hadn’t seen each other in a long time.Snowball purred happily in Olivia’s arms while rubbing her face on Olivia’s head.
“I’ll show you what Dad left you.”
“Okay.”
Ethan brought her to a room filled with wooden items. There was a crib, rocking horse, rattle toy, andwooden sword.
“These are…”
“These are the things Dad made for our babies before he passed. Sadly, he didn’t get to see them.”
Each of these items was filled with Jeff’s love.
Olivia suddenly felt an overwhelming wave of sadness coming over her. For a moment, she thought ofa frail man slowly carving some wood with a carving knife.
The dragon on the wooden sword looked especially life-like, but it wasn’t finished. There was a part of itleft uncarved.
Olivia’s tears started to flow as she said, “He must’ve spent a lot of time on these, right?”novelbin
“Yeah. Fate played a cruel joke on him.”
Ethan gently wiped her tears away. “Don’t cry, Liv. It’s all behind us now. You still have me.”
Olivia buried her head on his shoulder, and her tears dripped down to his collar.
She sobbed, saying, “Why do I feel so sad even though I can’t remember anything? Ethan, did I forgetsomething I shouldn’t
have?”
Ethan patted her head lightly. “Liv, it’s all just pain and suffering. It’s better to forget about them. Dadwould’ve wanted you to live happily too. He wouldn’t want you to wallow in grief every day.”
