After Eugene was gone, Jewel walked up to Olivia and asked, “Did Eugene explain everything to you?” Since Olivia did not have any energy left, she replied listlessly, “Yes.”
Jewel observed her expression and asked, “In that case, why the long face?” A dog-tired Olivia let out a long sigh. “I’m not sad. I’m just exhausted.”
“Physically or mentally?”
“Both.” “Alright. Since you don’t want to talk about it, go and get some shut-eye,” Jewel said. “I’ll head out and grab some food with North. Do you want anything?”
Olivia replied, “Nope. Go ahead. I’ll get some rest now.” After they were gone, Olivia got changed and lay in bed. She did not lie as she was truly exhausted. She could understand why Eugene wanted to hide the truth from her and that his feelings for Azalea were different.
However, she could not continue loving the man without minding his relationship with another woman. Perhaps I’m just selfish.
Her tears slid down her cheeks, but she soon wiped them off and secretly chastised herself. Why am I crying when he’s the more aggrieved one? What have I done wrong, though? Don’t I deserve his love in its entirety?
All of a sudden, her phone started ringing. She picked it up and realized it was Ellen’s video call. She had been giving Olivia a call every day for the past two days, but it was her first time giving her a video call.
Olivia quickly wiped the tears from her eyes and forced a smile, pretending that nothing had happened. Then, she connected the call and said, “Hi, Mrs. Nolan.”
