Chapter 406
‘School?’
Fred shuddered, and tears welled up in his eyes.
His life had been so bad that he could not even imagine the future. He had long forgotten about his studies.
Perhaps it was more accurate to say that he did not dare to think about it.
He was very grateful to Olivia. She had given him a new life, and now, she was actually saying that she would send him back to school.
This was a great honor, but…
He swallowed, pursed his lips, and said, “No, Sis Liv. There’s no need to waste money on me. My life..”
“Fred, no one can define your life.”
Fred stared at her blankly, a lump in his throat.
Olivia gave him another piece of meat and said slowly, “When I was young, I was the apple of my parent’s eyes, but my life didn’t go according to plan, did it?
“Until today, my life’s still not the life I thought it would be.
“But whether it’s good or bad, I don’t let it be defined by the moment.”
After that, she smiled. “Someone once told me that as long as I’m alive, there are infinite possibilities.”
She had to stay alive regardless if it was to avenge herself or create a future.
That was why she gritted her teeth and survived until today.
Fred’s eyes suddenly welled with tears. When he saw the tears rolling down his cheeks, even he was startled.
He had not cried for a long time because he had a younger sister.
It was because he was the older brother, and he was an older brother who had to carry his sister’s life on his back.
He could not cry, could not be afraid, and had to move forward bravely.
However, for some reason, all his fragility was exposed in front of Olivia.
He hastily wiped away his tears, coughed a few times, and said, “It’s a bit spicy. I choked.”
