Chapter 618
Zac nodded at her and motioned her to go over.
“Miss, welcome back.”
Looking at the familiar face, all the past memories flooded her mind, and her vision started to get blurry.
Olivia quickly walked over and hugged the person. “Mrs. Simmons…I missed you.”
“Miss, I missed you too, I thought that.” Mrs. Simmons sobbed “I really thought that you were dead four years ago.
“I am sorry…. I wasn’t considerate enough. I’ve been too selfish…”
“Miss, don’t be foolish. How could you be selfish?”
Mrs. Simmons used her warm hands to wipe away her tears. “You silly kid. When I heard that you killed someone for revenge, I was so scared, so I quickly came to Ocean City to find you. But you wouldn’t see anyone, so I could only wait until you were willing to see me.”
Mrs. Simmons sniffed. “But the only thing that came back to me was the news of your death.”
“I am sorry…”
“You really like apologizing, huh? You’re not at fault, okay? When I thought you were dead, the young master became vegetative. I felt I couldn’t leave him alone, so I stayed and took care of him.”
Mrs. Simmons then looked at Zac. “Later on, I met Mr. Quinton and he wanted me to come and help him, but I didn’t know if he was a friend or enemy. If it wasn’t for…”
He interrupted her. “Mrs. Simmons, let’s cut the stories short. The soup will get cold if we continue talking.”
Speaking of soup, Mrs. Simmons forced a smile, “Right. Miss, I’ve made you your favorite soup. Hurry up and drink some ”
Olivia pitied Mrs. Simmons. She dared not ask any further questions so she sat by the table and drank her soup.
“It’s delicious.”
“Drink as much as you like.”
After saying that, she looked toward Zac. “Sir, come and have some soup too.”
Zac was slightly taken aback by the term ‘Sir’. He was still unused to it.
Olivia did not seem to catch that and got up to drag him over. “Come on, Mrs. Simmons can cook really well. Have a bowl with me, okay?”
The kindness was hard to turn down. How could Zac refuse?
