Chapter 204
Chapter 204
Chelsea could die because of Olivia’s insensitivity.
She even forgot to flip the fish in the pot and it almost got burnt.
“But I don’t seem to know how to love someone anymore,” Olivia said slowly after a long while.
It had been like this since she escaped from death five years ago.
It was not that she had no wooers but she just couldn’t fall in love again.
Her heart seemed to have installed a kill switch that would turn on automatically every time she had a sign of joy.
It told her to stay away from those men and avoid risks.
She used to think that it was because of her obsession with William and she could not fall for another man.
But when William said that he loved her, she was more afraid than anything.
She was worried that she would make the same mistake and her heart would be broken again.
Chelsea knew from Olivia’s expression that she was immersed in her sad memories.
When Chelsea was thinking about how to comfort her friend, she turned around and saw William who was standing at the kitchen door.
“Uh… Mr. Kinsman?”
She thought, “Oh no. When did Mr. Kinsman come? Did he hear what Liv said?
Jameson! You only know fooling around all day. Your best buddy came. Why didn’t you give us a heads-up?”
Chelsea cursed Jameson in her heart a million times.
“Miss Peters, thank you for everything!” William said.
“Oh, it’s nothing. Mr. Kinsman, Chelsea replied with a slightly awkward forced smile.
“Why are you here? Olivia, who had been struggling for the time, finally turned around.
Olivia looked at his darkened face and felt a little embarra**ed.
“I’m here to have dinner with my dear wife! The minute William looked at Olivia, the dark cloud on his face disappeared, revealing a rare gentleness. He reached out and grabbed her thin, tender hand.
“You doze off a lot recently. Let’s take a nap after lunch. He sounded like a worried father.
William then pulled Olivia out of the kitchen and led her to the living room.
Olivia was at a loss as to what to do.
“Aren’t you angry, William?” Confused, Olivia asked after a slight hesitation.
“Dear, why do you think I’m angry?” William paused and turned to look at her.
“You should have heard it, right? I said that I don’t know how to love someone.”
With that, Olivia lowered her head like a child who had made a mistake.
A heartache suddenly seized William.
He leaned over and held her tightly in his arms.
He clutched her so hard as if he wanted to rub her into his bones.
“My dear wife is just trying to protect herself. Why should I be angry? I only feel sad. Olivia, please believe me. I’ll do better this time, okay?”
Olivia was stunned by his words.
For a moment, she felt a surge of warmth rising in her heart.
At the same time, Jameson on the balcony of the living room was peeking out the door.
Ezra and Luci stood behind him, looking forward to the sweet gossip about their parents.
Luci was curious about the latest development of Daddy and Mommy, but he had figured out that it was impossible for him to see anything from where he stood, so he waited silently on the side.

Chapter 204
He had wanted to play on his computer but had to drop it because of Ezra.
He even regretted for a few seconds that he had once missed his young brother, the little monster.
Kara came here with William just now. At this time, he hadn’t even put down his small schoolbag and was still holding his
unfinished chocolate milk in his hand.
But he didn’t have time to care about any of these. He just couldn’t wait to watch his parents’ romance with Jameson.
Feer since he felt that his “scu mbag” father was okay, he was thinking that it might not be a bad idea if his mother wanted to be with him.
He wondered, “After all, it’s not easy to find a father who could easily buy a computer worth hundreds of millions of dollars
But now, with the cr ack of the door being occupied by Jameson, he couldn’t see anything and was a little anxious.
He asked, “What did you see, Uncle Smith? Tell us!”
“Relax. It’s a bit far and I can’t see them. This angle won’t do. Let me change to another angle. I’ll be able to see them soon… Jameson comforted Ezra in a low voice. Then, he leaned to one side and squinted back into the living room.
Unfortunately, the balcony was not facing the living room head-on. He leaned too much and his sight was blocked by the door, so he still couldn’t see anything.
Jameson had been standing in a strange position for so long that his back started to hurt. But he was still hanging in there when the door to the balcony was suddenly pulled open from inside.
He lost his balance and fell forward.
The next second, he hugged William’s thighs directly.
“Ouch!
“Wow, William, what a coincidence. You also come to the balcony for fresh air? Ha-ha…” Jameson tried to gloss it over.
“Are you going to stand up?” William said calmly.
“My back hurts badly! Help me, please? In order to change the topic, Jameson pretended to be fragile.
This tricked worked every time.
When he was to make a scene, he would usually show the white feather and be clingy, and then William would immediately agree to everything he said because he could not stand any of it.
This was Smith’s law of importuning.
But Jameson had never expected that the greatest law that he had used since he was a child would meet its Waterloo today.
“Ah-h! Olivia, look! What a nice couple here!”
When Chelsea screamed excitedly, Jameson felt his face burning. He looked at William with even more grievance in his
eyes
In West Melburgh Castle, a wicked smile appeared on Johnathan’s face as he watched the hacking signal of Olivia was gone.
He picked up his cane and strode toward the third floor underground.
Felix followed him right away.
“Mr. Kinsman, our firewall has been breached. Why don’t you let us strengthen the protection?” Felix was a little worried.
He had just asked the doctor in the castle to help him change his dressing before he suddenly received a security alarm and hurried here to report it.
Unexpectedly, Johnathan seemed to have known about everything long ago. He did not look anxious at all and even laughed out loud.
This made Felix a little confused.
Johnathan replied. “No hurry. We’ll deal with these trifles when our guest comes tonight.”
“Guest? You mean the person who hacked into our security system just now?” Felix quickly came to his senses and seemed to catch Johnathan’s drift.
“You’re not stu pid” Johnathan was gratified to see that Felix had finally been able to connect the dots.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Kinsman. I’ll get everything ready and make sure this will be a one-way ticket for her,” Felix promised.
“No, no, no, take it easy. Don’t you hurt Olivia!” said Johnathan.
