"To hang out after I give birth?" Olivia held her waist and took a lot of effort to sit on the sofa before complaining dissatisfiedly, "I'm afraid I have no chance to do that after giving birth. I will have to stay at home for confinement and look after my babies everyday. I can't leave them at home and go out on my own, can I?"
"That's fine." Vera smiled and suggested, "When the time comes where you can give your children formula milk, let your parents help take care of them. Then, you can go out occasionally. What's the matter?"
Speaking of which, Olivia was really blessed.
Her parents were both healthy, and so were Sam's. If she gave birth to a pair of twins, there would be many family members who would be able to help her take care of them.
Olivia and Sam were both the only child of their families, so the babies they gave birth to would definitely be treasures in the eyes of their parents.
Hearing that, Olivia felt that Vera was right.
"You are right, but I still want to go out for a walk before the delivery. Why don't you accompany me?" "No!" Vera shook her head and firmly rejected her. "You are going to give birth at any moment. What if you go into labor after walking around? You should stay at home instead. By the way, where is Sam?"
After talking for a long time, only did Vera notice that he was not at home.
"He's gone out. I'm the only one at home, and he won't come back until much later. I'm bored at home, that's why I wanted you to go out with me."
It turned out that Sam had gone out.
Vera put the gift on the table.
"It seems that I have no way to hand the thank you gift to him personally then."
"A thank you gift?"
Olivia didn't understand. "Why are you suddenly giving him a thank you gift?"
"Quill had a car accident some time ago."
"What?" Hearing Vera say that her husband had a car accident, Olivia suddenly got nervous. "Is he all right?"
She calmed down and took a deep breath. "No, from the way you're acting now, he's probably fine. I was a little too nervous just now. I'm sorry." "It's okay, you are just worried about me. The doctor told him that it was just a slight concussion, and he will be fine if he has a good rest."
"That's great."
"When I bumped into Sam in the supermarket that day, he helped send me to the hospital. However, there were too many things happening that day, and I was in a hurry to go look for Quill, so I had no time to thank him properly at all. It's until recently when I have more time freed up, only did I thought about it, and bought something for him."
Huh?
Olivia caught onto the main point.
So, Quill had a car accident a few days ago, while Vera bumped into Sam in the supermarket. Did Sam take her to the hospital after that?
Thus, was Vera the reason why Sam left her behind in the supermarket that day?
For some reason, there was a bitter taste in Olivia's mouth. On that day... Didn't Sam say that he had taken a woman to the hospital?
He also said that she had hurt her leg.
No, was that what he said, or was it her own speculation? Olivia suddenly became a little confused. She did not know what to say, and there was a rumbling sound in her ear.
At that moment, she felt as if her head had been hit by something.
"Ollie? Ollie?"
Olivia came to her senses and smiled again when she saw Vera looking at her worriedly.
"What's wrong?"
"I should be the one asking you this question."
Vera looked at her worriedly and said, "After I said something about Sam, your expression didn't look right. Are you okay? Did I say something wrong?"
"No, no!"
Olivia regained her smile, waved her hand, and explained, "I'm just thinking that it's great that your husband is fine. You didn't say anything wrong. Don't worry."
All she could think about was how Sam had sent Vera to the hospital that day.
She walked out of the fitting room, but she didn't see him anywhere. She waited there for a long time, but he didn't come back.
She knew that she shouldn't be so unreasonable at the time, and she really didn't mind what happened that day.
She didn't take it to heart.
However, after knowing that person was Vera then, Olivia somehow started to feel uneasy.
Was she minding it too much? Why was she feeling that something was off in her heart?
Could it be that Sam hadn't forgotten Vera?
If not, why did he forget about her right away when he saw that Vera was injured and left without saying a word?
No, no!
Olivia shook her head hard and tried to throw those messy thoughts out of her mind. She shouldn't be thinking about such things!
Sam was not that kind of person. When she married him, she already knew of his feelings for Vera.
She had always known them, so why would she mind it then?
Unknowingly, she stood for a long time until her legs were sore. Then, only did she come back to her senses and sit down on the sofa.
There was a warm sensation in her eyes, and she was feeling a little sour in her throat.
The more she forced herself not to think about it, the more she was reminded of how Sam might still have feelings for Vera.
All day long, that was all she pondered upon.
Why didn't he tell her? She wouldn't mind if he told her directly. Was he afraid to tell her, or did he feel that there was no need to do so?
