Chapter 231: Hearts Divided
Chapter 231: Hearts Divided
(Olivia’s POV)
Rebecca Frost is two years younger than me, twenty–five years old this year, and has always been single, never having been in a relationship. Never having been in a relationship doesn’t mean she doesn’t have someone she likes. She has been single for so many years because she has someone impossible in her heart.
I knew who the person in Rebecca’s heart was – a man named River Hayes, the son of the Frost family’s housekeeper.
The reason why Rebecca had been single for so many years was because she was in love with River Hayes, who had a normal family background. It was impossible for the Frost pack to agree with them being together. Rebecca had once bravely confessed her feelings to River Hayes, but River had refused her.
I watched Rebecca carefully as she examined a silk scarf, her fingers tracing the delicate pattern. Her
expression was distant, lost in thoughts I knew all too well.
“Rebecca,” I said gently, “can I ask you something personal?”
She looked up, her eyes focusing on me. “Of course, Liv. What is it?”
“Do you still think about River Hayes? Have you ever considered liking someone else?”
Rebecca’s smile turned bitter, and she set down the scarf. “He’s become my obsession, hasn’t he? I don’t seem to have the strength to like someone new again.”
These years, Rebecca had not been in a relationship, and neither had River. Lily and I could tell that River had feelings for Rebecca, but he knew he was not worthy of her and didn’t want her to suffer with him.
“Rebecca, do you remember Tyler Davis?” I asked, changing the subject carefully.
She frowned slightly, thinking. “Tyler Davis? He’s Ethan Quinn’s friend, right? We ate together before.”
“Yes, that’s him. I met him at a pack gathering recently, and he mentioned that he had met you at your house when he went to see your brother.”
Rebecca’s frown deepened. “I don’t remember that at all.”
“Have you seen him recently?” I pressed gently.
“Actually, yes. I saw him at the company yesterday.” She shrugged. “Why do you ask?”
“Did he ask for your contact information?”
Rebecca shook her head. “No, he didn’t. Should he have?”
I considered whether to tell Rebecca that Tyler Davis was interested in her, but decided against it. The timing didn’t feel right, especially with her heart still so clearly occupied by River.
Chapter 231, Hearts Divided
After shopping with Rebecca, I returned to my private villa, As the car drove to the garden in front of the vit area, I saw a man sitting on a park bench and making a phone call through the car window
My heart nearly stopped. It was Connor Rivers.
Panic shot through me as I worried that my father or stepmother would see him. What was he doing here so openly?
I quickly got out of the car and walked toward him. “Connor, why are you here?”
Connor looked up at me, and I could see his eyes taking in my beautiful outfit from the shopping trip. His gaze lingered on the flowing fabric of my dress, appreciation clear in his expression.
Connor hung up the phone and pulled me into his arms without hesitation. “I missed you,” he said simply. Despite my worry about being seen, I melted into his embrace. “I missed you too, but I had things to do today.”
