Fated To Not Just One But Three novel Chapter 641

Chapter 641: Mistake

Olivia’s POV

Levi frowned, then—just like Louis—he stood up. Without a word, he walked away.

Of course, the boys noticed. Children always do.

They felt the shift, the tension hanging thick in the air, the way something that was supposed to be fun suddenly turned wrong. And deep down, it hurt me more than anything else.

What kind of parenthood were we building like this?

"I’m sorry," Liam suddenly whispered, his small voice cracking. "I thought it was going to be fun... I didn’t mean to make them sad."

My heart shattered.

I pulled him into my lap immediately, wrapping my arms around him and holding him close. Over his shoulder, I saw Leon and Leo watching us with wide, uncertain eyes. They weren’t babies anymore. They could sense the rot beneath this so-called happy family outing.

"It’s okay, darling," I whispered, smoothing Liam’s hair. "This isn’t your fault. Not at all. The adults are just... we’re just having a hard day."

But Liam didn’t look convinced.

He looked guilty—like a child who had accidentally broken something precious and realized too late that it could never be fixed.

I lifted my eyes over Liam’s head and looked at Lennox.

He was still sitting there, leaning back on one elbow, his posture relaxed. Too relaxed. The lake behind him was calm, reflecting the sunlight—and he looked just like it.

He didn’t look guilty or sorry. He looked like a man who had done exactly what he intended to do.

"Was it worth it?" I asked, my voice trembling with a cold, sharp anger.

Lennox tilted his head slightly, his eyes hidden behind his sunglasses.

"Making sure they face the reality of their neglect?" he said evenly. "Yes, Olivia. It was."

"You used my son," I hissed, lowering my voice once the boys had wandered a few steps away to play by the sand. "You used a game meant for a child to humiliate your brothers."

Lennox frowned. "How did I humiliate them, Olivia?"

"By agreeing to the game in the first place," I snapped. "You could have said no. You should have said no. But you didn’t. You chose to embarrass them instead. How childish of you."

I stood up, anger boiling over.

"What?" I continued bitterly. "You think knowing so much about me will make me love you more? Want you more?"

I laughed harshly.

"Never. We’re not even mates anymore."

The words left my mouth before I could stop them.

And the moment they did, I knew those words hit Lennox.

Even though I couldn’t see his eyes behind the sunglasses, I saw it in the way his jaw clenched. The way his body went still. He didn’t argue. He didn’t shout.

He simply stood up.

Without looking at me, he walked toward the boys and joined them, kneeling down to help Liam build something in the sand.

Like nothing had happened.

I sat back down slowly, my chest tight.

God... I felt like an idiot.

A big one.

Those words—they were never meant to leave my lips.

How could I have said that to him?

My wolf stirred uneasily.

Go talk to him, she urged.
