Chapter 647
Before meeting Janice, Olivia thought she would be a maniac.
After their meeting, she realized she was wrong. Janice was just a poor woman who wasn’t able to be with the man she loved.
“You weren’t stupid, just stubborn.”
Olivia didn’t remember her past, but she was able to relate to Janice’s emotions. It was like the same thing had happened to her in the past.
“Those are the same thing. In the past, I had been a failure of a mother. Now that I’m older, I’ve thought things through.
“You’re luckier than me. You have all his love. You’re the most suitable person to wear the bracelet.”
Olivia’s eyes widened in surprise. “So you’re not opposed to our relationship?”
“Why would I be? You’re a match made in heaven. But there is something I need to tell you.
“Ethan might be an outstanding person, but he grew up in our family. There are serious flaws in his personality.
“Others might not be able to notice them. Only the people closest to him would be able to see these flaws.
“Ethan isn’t really capable of love. But you’re different. I heard you grew up in a loving family. It’s only natural that he is attracted to you.
“A Miller man will never have a change of heart once he falls in love. It’s a blessing and a curse at the same time.
“You’re both still young. You have a long life ahead of you. I hope you can stay by his side no matter what he has done to you. Please don’t let the misfortunes of my generation affect you.”
Olivia had mixed feelings about what Janice said and didn’t know how to respond. She was already married to Ethan, and he
loved her so much.
Logically speaking, she should love him deeply, too, but a voice in her head kept warning her to stay away from Ethan.
Janice held Olivia’s hand when she saw that Olivia wasn’t responding. She asked, “Can I call you Liv?”
“If you want to.”
“I also have a daughter; she’s about your age, but I didn’t take good care of her. That’s why we have been separated for so long. If you don’t mind, you can call me Mom from now on.”
The sudden motherly love took Olivia aback. She paused for a while and agreed, “Okay.”
“Good girl. Do you have any plans for the future?”
Olivia shook her head. “I have no idea. I heard that I used to study medicine. I’ll probably continue my studies on that.”
Olivia felt lost. She felt like her future was shrouded in mist.
She was like a little doll, pretty and attractive but soulless. She didn’t know what she wanted to do.
Dreams? Aspirations?
She had no desires or longing. She didn’t feel hopeful for the future.
She would occasionally feel heartache when children were brought up, but she didn’t feel like getting pregnant again.
The most intimate things she had done with Ethan recently were hugs and morning k*sses.
Ethan was very considerate of her. He respected her wishes and said he would give her all the time she needed.
He was flawless and almost too perfect. But Olivia managed to remain calm.
Janice looked like she wanted to say something else, but she nodded and said, “Studying medicine is good.”
Janice was more understanding than Olivia expected.
“You can make yourself at home here. Whether it’s studying medicine or business, you can take your pick. Ethan loves you a
lot. I hope you can love him for us. He has … been through a lot.”
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 …
