Chapter 195
Olivia thought that she no longer cared.
But at this moment she realized she couldn’t cut Ethan out of her life completely.
She wasn’t able to let go of the love she had for so many years in a couple of months.
She hugged her legs and rested her head on her knees.
Her head was filled with the image of Ethan and Marina sharing a bed. It pained her to think about that.
She did not sleep for the entire night. She stayed up until the owl left.
She looked at the cold and empty bed beside her, and she gave herself a self–deprecating smile.
Her phone on the nightstand rang. She quickly accepted the call.
Chloe’s voice came from the other end. She kept insisting that Olivia go over to the Carltons
She said that she had made Olivia’s favorite breakfast and that Chris wanted to meet Olivia.
Olivia hung up emotionlessly. But her b*dy got out of the bed subconsciously.
She hadn’t eaten breakfast made by her mother in many years.
Chloe, in her memories, was a kind and loving person. She was a great cook
She rarely cooked, but every time she did, it would leave Olivia deeply impressed.
Before she knew it, Olivia had arrived at the Carlton residence.
The servants welcomed her courteously. Chloe looked as elegant and dignified as always. Olivia could see that Chris had treated her well.
The few times Olivia met her, she had a smile on her face, unlike when she was with Jeff.
She never smiled much when she was married to Jeff
Chloe’s love and indifference were both reflected on her face. When she was married to Jeff, she was cold toward Jeff and Olivia. She only ever cooked when she was in a good mood.
Olivia was able to sense the tension between her parents at a young age. So, she tried her best to be obedient
Even if she loved Chloe’s cooking and wanted Chloe to attend her school’s parent’s meeting, she would never being it up.
She used to think that if she got better grades and was more obedient, her parents would get along more. And that they would bring her to the theme park on her birthday
But in the end, all she got was her mom leaving her.
Chloe saw Olivia standing at the entrance. She quickly came over to hold her hand.
“Liv is here. Come over quickly! Are you hungry? I’ve made breakfast.”
Chris was not too uptight for once. He said with a smile, “Yeah, come and have a taste. Your mother made these just for you.
“Olivia, I was also shocked by what happened to your father if you don’t mind, you can treat me as your father The Caro residence can also be your home ”
Olivia could tell that Chris wasn’t lying. But she wasn’t moved
There are things that she just can’t get over, even if she spent her whole life trying to do xo
After she was pulled to the dining table, Chloe put a bowl of spaghetti carbonara in front of her
Chloe then said, “Eat up, I remember that you loved to eat spaghetti carbonara when you were young
Olivia didn’t move. She has loved spicy food since she was young. Her favorite breakfast was spaghetti arrabbiata, not spaghetti carbonara.
Chloe proceeded to bring some more food to Olivia. Sandwiches, deviled eggs, and stuffed mushrooms …
Olivia smirked and put down her cutleries. “If you don’t have love for me, you don’t have to pretend like you do.”
“You don’t like these? I should have remembered properly.” Chloe muttered.
Chris clenched his fists, cleared his throat, and said, “These are all Marina’s favorites.”
His words were like a sharp blade piercing Olivia’s heart.
Look at that! What a loving mother.
She remembered all of her step–daughter’s preferences, yet she couldn’t even remember what her biological daughter liked to
eat.
Olivia wouldn’t have felt so bad if Chloe at least remembered one dish she liked.
She stood up and turned to leave but noticed the door of the first floor’s bedroom opening.
Ethan and Marina walked out of the door one after the other.
