Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 256

Chapter 256

Colin didn’t look like he noticed the disappointment in Olivia’s eyes. He reached out to her. “I was passing by when I spotted you, Olivia. Did you get lost, or did you sprain your ankle?”

Declining his offer to help, Olivia got up on her own. Then, she smiled helplessly. “I was just thinking about something. I stopped here without realizing it.”

“My house is nearby. If you don’t mind, Olivia, you can go visit Snowball. Snowball misses you.”

Because of this reason, Olivia couldn’t bring herself to decline.

The warm interior of the car formed a stark contrast to the cold outside. Colin passed to Olivia an untouched cup of coffee.

“I was thinking of drinking it when I got home. Here, it’ll warm you up.”.

Olivia looked down. It was spiced coffee.

“Thank you.”

“No need for thanks.” Smiling, Colin turned the steering wheel with one hand.

Olivia felt that something was off. She had the feeling that the spiced coffee was bought specially for her, and he didn’t run into her by accident.

But the youth’s expression was honest. He didn’t look like he was planning anything.

Olivia chased away the unrealistic imaginations in her head.

“Why are you looking at me like that, Olivia?”

Holding the warm spiced coffee, Olivia took a sip. “I was just thinking that time flies. The kid from back then is all grown up now.”

The innocence and baby fat was gone from his face. His firm jawline had a smooth contour that revealed a hint of sharpness. It was completely smooth-shaven, though.

As he turned the steering wheel, the watch on his wrist glittered.

It was a weird feeling.

Colin had the innocence of youth mixed in with the maturity of an adult. The two seemingly c harmony when it came to him.

He pulled up by the road, smiling. “Wait for me, Olivia.”

With that, he dashed into the heavy rain. Ten minutes later, he came back with shopping bags.

There were fresh fruits and also a change of women’s clothing.

Stuffing the bags into Olivia’s arms, he explained smilingly, “Olivia, I noticed that the hem of your skirt was wet just now. I bought some clothes, but I eyeballed the size.

“If they’re the wrong size, you’ll have to put up with them.

“Also, here are some freshly cut fruits. You can eat some in case you feel hungry.”

Olivia was stunned as she looked at the youth’s drenched body. The young man’s expression froze. “Do you not like them, Olivia?”

She held the bags, shaking her head. “That’s not it. It’s been a while since the last time someone was this nice to me.” Colin was stunned for an instant. Then, he smiled. “It’s okay. Now that I’m back, I’ll treat you well in the future, Olivia.” The car came to a stop. It was only then that she noticed something.

around the yard.

Colin opened the gates of his house. The small yard was quite minimalistic.

White stones formed a simple path in the yard while water flowed gently in the fountain. There were a few cherry trees in the yard, and their petals were scattered all over the ground.

Before Olivia could admire the scenery, she heard a familiar meow.

A white figure leaped into her arms.

There was a small cut on the white cat’s ears. A mouse had bitten her when she was young. Olivia patted Snowball’s fluffy head as both sorrow and joy filled her heart.

“I’m so sorry for losing you.”
