Chapter 789
Olivia looked at him in confusion, “Is there anything else?”
Logan took something out of his pocket. He said shyly, “How can you not get a present for your birthday?
“Thai is something I got for myself back when I was out and about, working different jobs.
“It’s a lucky charm that has kept me alive through several close calls. So, I want to give it to you, Ms. Fordham.”
Logan held a crescent-shaped pendant in his palm.
“That won’t do. It’s your lucky charm. How can I possibly take it from you?
Logan put the pendant in her hand and said, “Take it. I’m not taking on any dangerous jobs anyway. I hope it brings you some good luck.
“It’s nothing too precious, so I hope you won’t dislike it.”
Olivia saw that he was adamant about this, and it was a kind gesture.
Thanks. I’ll gladly accept it.”
After she closed the door, she examined the pendant closely. The necklace wasn’t gold or silver but colored threads. She didn’t even know what material the pendant was made of.
It didn’t seem like plastic or look like any type of gemstone. The design looked nice.
She also wished for a healthy b*dy, so she hung the pendant around her neck.
Olivia wanted nothing else. She just wanted to lead a peaceful and healthy life.
Shept soundly that night.
Her interactions with Logan remained the same. He didn’t try to get closer to Olivia just because he helped her celebrate her birthday.
He still kept her instructions to heart. When nothing was going on, he would stay far away from her and never approach.
After two more months of rest, three months had pa*sed since she ended chemotherapy.
The side effects lessened considerably. Olivia was no longer bound to her wheelchair. She could walk
again.
So, there wasn’t a need to keep Logan around anymore.
She checked online and realized that Ethan was still in Vuckburg, which meant that was the best time for
her to return to Aldervine
On that day, Keith and Irene came to visit her. She told them her request
She wanted to go back to Aldenvine by ship. If she were smuggled into the city, it would lower her chances of being found out
“Why do you want to go back? Is there anything you’re unhappy about here?”
“No I am very happy here. But I have something very important that I have to do back there. Keith, you’re the only one that I can count on.”
Irene shook her head. “No, Olivia I won’t object to your leaving after six months. But it has only been three months. I’m worried about you.
“Besides, isn’t Aldenvine a sad place for you? Why do you want to go back there?”
“There’s a reason why I must go back. Olivia couldn’t tell them what it was.
The two of them couldn’t help but agree because they couldn’t convince her to stay. They were also afraid that she would sneak off by herself.
“Give me a few days. I’ll help arrange the trip for you. You have to be prepared, too. Going by the sea route. isn’t that simple.
“If it’s a cargo ship, you might be on the sea for a couple of months. The waters can get very rough. Will
you be able to handle it?”
“Yes.”
She cou handle any hardship if it were for the sake of being reunited with her children.
She had to go back to Aldenvine even if it was raining knives.
She had already missed the most important years of her children’s lives. All she wanted was to make it up
to them.
“Since you’ve already made up your mind. We won’t force you to stay. Wait for my word.”
“Thanks.”
Olivia looked at Logan, who was playing with Snowball in the yard.
She hesitated briefly before saying, “Logan is a good man. I don’t need a b*dyguard anymore. Can you get
him a good job?
As if sensing her gaze, Logan looked at her through the window and smiled at her.
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 …
