Chapter 787
The fireworks shot up into the sky and made exploding sounds as they burst.
The last time there was such a beautiful fireworks show was on Connor’s birthday.
Marina spent a lot of money to hire professionals to set up that show. It was a pity that Olivia wasn’t in
the mood to enjoy the show back then.
The most beautiful fireworks show she had seen happened when she was 15 years old Jeff arranged a
show for her.
Fifteen years old was an age when she had no worries. She was a genius who hadn’t been hurt and was
hopeful for the future.
Back then, Jeff was elegant and gentle. He was her loving father.
She could still remember that many people showed up at the Fordham Residence.
All of them were there to celebrate her birthday.
Snowball was nuzzling against the plum tree and looking at the fireworks above.
Jeff said gently. “If you like it, I’ll hold a party like this for you every year.”
But that was the last time she ever had a party like that.
She only recalled Jeff’s death anniversary, but she forgot that her birthday was coming tomorrow.
Four years ago, she was pregnant.
initially, she thought Ethan would take care of the preparations for her birthday. But he didn’t even show
up the entire day.
Olivia thought he was just busy, so she went into the kitchen to cook up a feast and waited for him to
come home.
In the end, he didn’t come back. Instead, she saw trending news of Ethan and Marina sharing a candlelit
dinner.
It was the middle of summer, but Olivia felt a chill that consumed her.
What followed was the series of incidents that happened during their divorce. She didn’t have the time to celebrate her birthday. So she forgot about it eventually.
She only realized she hadn’t celebrated her birthday in four years when she saw the words “Happy Birthday
Clicte watched the fireworks show in silence. It lasted for 30 minutes. There was even a drone
performance.
There was a huge cruise ship in the distance. The person for whom the fireworks show was for would
probably be on that ship
After the fireworks were gone, the world fell silent once again.
Olivia could only hear the waves crashing onto the shore.
“Your expression was solemn Ms Fordham What were you thinking about?”
Olivia smiled bitterly. Nothing I just thought of my own birthday when I saw another person’s birthday
celebration”
“Your birthday is today? Why didn’t you tell me? I’ll go get a cake for you.”
“No need. I haven’t celebrated my birthday for years now. It’s cold here on the beach. Let’s head back”
Logan didn’t say anything else as he pushed her back toward the car.
It might be because they were on the beach for too long. Olivia sneezed as soon as she got in the car.
Logan quickly adjusted the temperature in the car.
Even after they arrived home, Olivia was still feeling down.
Tasha slept very early. She was lights out at 8:00 pm.
Olivia went back to her room for a while.
Snowball was a cunning cat. It would keep Olivia company before she fell asleep. But after she fell asleep.
Snowball would sneak outside and play with Logan.
A few times, when Olivia woke up in the middle of the night, she would see Logan playing with Snowball.
She washed up and lay quietly in bed. Subconsciously, she took out her phone and searched for
information about Ethan on Arlandian social media platforms.
Recent news about him mentioned that he had gone to Vuckburg to help with disaster relief efforts.
Olivia turned off her phone. She felt like Ethan had completely changed after she faked her death.
He was the successor of the Miller Ectate, but he wasn’t even focused on work. He had been going all
over the place and was committed to doing charity and welfare activities.

Did he think that would bring her back to life? Or was he just trying to ease the guilt he was feeling?
Olivia wasn’t interested. She didn’t want to know. Her relationship with him was a thing of the past.
She turned off the lights and went to sleep. It was a habit she adopted after countless sleepless nights..
Olivia turned to her side and looked at the view outside the window. She was counting the days until she
would recover.
She was dying to return to Arlandia to look for her children.
Suddenly, someone knocked on her door.
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 …
