Chapter 1013
Olivia, who had washed her hair, rested against the window to gaze at the full moon.
She lied to Colin.
It had been three years and six months. She thought that she had gotten over Ethan.
However, she became frantic and helpless when she learned that he was going to die due to poison.
She rushed to his side without hesitation.
Her kids were one of the reasons for it, but most importantly, she didn’t want him to die.
By right, Olivia shouldn’t have had such emotions.
It seemed like she needed to send him off as soon as he recovered. Otherwise, the longer he stayed, the more difficult it would be for her. She could hear the sound of the flute blowing from afar.
Willow was blowing it in Ethan’s room. Willow liked Ethan so much, but how could Olivia tell the little girl that Ethan wasn’t his biological father?
If Ethan found out that Willow’s father was another man, would he hurt her?
Olivia wasn’t confident about her judgment toward Ethan because he could’ve changed throughout the past three years.
Willow stopped blowing after playing three pieces. She patted Ethan’s hand and left him on the bed.
She hoped he could get some early rest.
He caressed her head. “Good girl. Your father must be proud of you.
She smiled faintly.
Suddenly, a soft sensation touched his cheek. Realizing that it was a peck from Willow, he was over the moon.
“Willow, do you like me?”
She rang her bell happily in response.
He replied joyfully, “I do, too.”
They were comfortable with their distinct interaction now.
Willow turned into a happy bunny upon learning that her father liked her, too.
She took off the bead necklace to wear it around his wrist. It was
made of a five-colored string.
“Is this for me?”
She rang her bells again.
“Thank you.” He touched the special beads. That was a gift from his daughter! “I will take good care of it.”
The happy girl left his room to return to Olivia’s side. Olivia patted on the place beside her, and Willow nestled into her arms like a kitten.
Willow wrote the word “Daddy” on Olivia’s palm.
For the first time in forever, Olivia felt it difficult to face those green eyes.
How was she supposed to tell Willow that she didn’t share the same father as her elder siblings?
Not to mention how happy Willow was. That would rain on her parade.
Olivia, who had always loved her kids, didn’t tell Willow the truth. “Do you like him?””
Willow nodded with bright eyes.
Olivia couldn’t bring herself to let Willow down as she said, “But we have to keep this a secret. Otherwise, he’ll lock me up.
Willow couldn’t follow because Ethan appeared gentle to her. Why would someone like him hurt Olivia?
Still, Willow believed that Olivia wouldn’t lie to her.
Willow nodded obediently.
“Good girl. If you like him, spend more time with him while you can.”
Zack and Alicia reached school age, and they were studying abroad.
Now, Olivia only had Willow by her side. Besides, Willow couldn’t speak.
Hence, the more reason for Olivia to pamper her with love.
They fell asleep in each other’s arms.
On that silent night, the miserable Cyril was still collecting manures in the rear house.
He still needed to go to the vegetable farm first thing in the morning tomorrow alongside Wendy.
Ethan had yet to recover fully, so he slept quite early.
The silence went on until he suddenly heard Olivia’s voice.
He woke up. “Liv!”
He heard it coming from beyond the door. He hurried to the door. Liv, is that you?”

It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
