Chapter 549
By the time Olivia had washed her face and got out, Fred had put breakfast on the table.
There was a glass of orange juice, a sandwich, and a bowl of chicken soup.
It was simple, but it was all her favorite food.
“There’s so much food.”
“Liv, this is our last breakfast for a while. I must put in some effort, of course.”
Olivia pressed her lips together. “Fred, you’ve grown up.”
“I’m going to be taking care of Lyla by myself. I have to grow up, of course.”
“It’s great that you figured it out.”
With that said, Olivia looked down and took a spoonful of chicken soup. “Yes, your cooking is still the best.”
Then she took another bite of the sandwich and said with a nod, “The sandwich is delicious too. I’m sad when I think how I won’t be able to eat it again.”
Fred did not answer but pushed the orange juice to her. “I just made this. Hurry and drink it. Its nutrition deteriorates over time.”
Olivia took it and drank it without hesitation.
“Dig in. Don’t just watch me eat. You have a plane to catch after the meal.”
“Okay.”
Fred began eating. He focused on Olivia out of the corner of his eye as he ate.
However, he got a little anxious when Olivia seemed all right after some time.
“Liv, do you feel anything different?”
Olivia was confused. “Different? No.”
‘Why isn’t she feeling different?”
While Fred was thinking about the problem, he suddenly felt tired. His eyelids felt heavy, and he
soon fell on the table.
Olivia watched him fall and sighed.
“Fred, do you think I can’t tell what you’re trying to do?”
She could not believe that Fred had suddenly become so obedient.
