Chapter 508
Not long after, Fred parked the car in front of the coffee shop before Olivia could even finish her coffee.
By the time she realized it, he was already standing beside her.
“Liv.”
Olivia looked up. When she spotted this person whom she had not seen in a long time, a lump rose into her throat, and she stood up to hug him.
“Fred, I’m finally back.”
“Liv, you’ve lost weight.”
While speaking, she smelled a familiar scent on him.
It was not the smell of perfume, but a refreshing smell unique to cheerful boys. It was completely
different from John’s mature scent which was laced with the smell of tobacco.
“Maybe I’m not used to the food over there.”
Fred chuckled “Don’t worry, I bought ingredients for your favorite dish, and I will cook it for you. later”
She let go of him and asked with a smile, “You still want to cook at this late hour?”
“Of course! It’s to welcome you back, so it has to be grand.”
“Okay, it’s up to you. Let’s go home.”
Fred pulled her luggage and nodded. “Okay.”
Suddenly, he stared at her for a while. “Liv, are you sick? Why do you look so pale?”
Olivia panicked for a moment. She raised her hand to touch her cheek and said with a smile, “Am I? Maybe because I just got off the plane, so I’m a little tired.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.” She pushed Fred out of the shop. “Come on. I want to see Lyla as soon as I can.”
Upon hearing what she said, he did not think much about it. He dragged the luggage with one hand and held Olivia’s hand with the other.
As they walked to the side of the car, Olivia went straight to the passenger’s seat while Fred went to put the luggage in the trunk.
Everything was in place. When Fred was about to drive, Olivia suddenly heard a childish voice.” Mommy.”
