Yet, why had Sylvie, a woman she had only known for two months, had such faith in ber?
The long–suppressed emotions poured out all at once, and she finally broke down, crying. “But no one believed me. Not one single person.
Feeling her pain, Sylvie sighed, stood up, and pulled clive into her arms. “There, there. It’s all in the past now, olive. It’s all behind you.”
After who knew how long, alive finally stopped crying, Sunlight streamed Into the room, leaving a trail of shimmering light.
Sylvie stood up, and her gaze tell softly on Olive, who was leaning against the headrest. Olive had only been 22 years old when she’d married Trevor, harboring the most beautiful hopes for the future. She must have been utterly in love with the man back then.
“Do you still love him, Olive?
alive’s eyes grew cold, and a look of detear crossed her gaunt face.
She shook her head. She had lost the courage to love him. The name “Trevor Horton had long since severed all ties and feelings between them.
Sylvie chucked in response before turning to leave…
As the sun set, Olive remained in the same position as she had been before Sylvie leit. Too many images flashed through her mind, most of them painful. And it was because they hurt so much that she didn’t wish to remember them anymore.
Slowly, she lay down, wanting to get some rest. But before she could do so, Ruth rushed into the room frantically.
“Olive! Quick, you have to go suve Lanal Someone grabbed her!” Ruth red out in panic.
felt as if something exploded in Olive’s mind when she heard this
“Explain clearly, Ruth What do
you mean someone grabbed her?–
Trembling as it she had just experienced something horrifying, Ruth told Olive everything that had happened to her that afternoon.
“That man brought so many people along with him. Me and my old bones couldn’t stop them I’m so sorry, Olive. Have you gotten on the wrong side of some people?”
olive closed her eyes for a second, and tears slowly ran down her cheeks.
“Did the person who took Lana say anything?” she asked, a trace of bitter sadness in her voice.
Ruth shook her head, her aged face filled with worry,
Such a dramatic display, so domineering and forceful, and leaving no mon for discussion–aside from Trevor, Olive really couldn’t think of a second person who would act this way.
“Thank you, Ruth. I know who took Lan
Ruth asked, “Do we need to call the police?
Olive shook her head, “No, I’ll take care of it.”
Seeing that she didn’t elaborate any further, Ruth didn’t have more to say either. She only watched as Olive pulled out her needle, got out of bed, changed her clothes, and headed home with her face pale and her hand clutching her abdomen.
Once Olive actived home, she packed a few things before grabbing some medication from the cabinet. She took a few pills, composed herself, then immediately booked a ticket to the city she had never intended to set foot in ever again.
Meanwhile, Trevor had come to personally retrieve Solana, But Solana didn’t know who Trevor was at all, and she was timid to begin with, so she had been crying nonstop–so much so that Torvor was getting annoyed.
“Enough! If you keep crying, toss you out!”
His cold, emotionless words only made Solana cry even harder, malding her voice hoarse.
“I want Mummy! I want my money! I don’t like you! Mommy!”
Her crying imitated Trevor, but when he saw her eyes swollen from crying, his heart inexplicably ached as well Frowning slightly, he said, “If you want to see your mother, then stop crying.”
