Ethan had always been a powerful man, but at that moment, he was extremely humble. “I was picking out the bunnies for you last night, and I decided to get something for Erina while I was at it.

"Liv, I treasure you, and I care about our children as well. It's almost New Year's, so can you give me a chance to see the children?"

He was especially concerned about the tender Willow. They had only spent a short time together in the village before Olivia left with Willow. Olivia sighed. "Alright, just don't do it again.”

He nodded in agreement. "I won't."

Olivia poked at the stubs on his chin. "Go upstairs and wash up.” "Sure." Taking her fingertips, he planted a kiss on them. "Have you really calmed down?"

"Yes, absolutely."

It was only then that Ethan sighed in relief and went upstairs. Now, he felt like he was walking on thin ice around Olivia.

He had finally contacted her again after a painstaking process, so he was sincerely worried that he might lose Olivia again.

Pride and favor were nothing compared to Olivia.

As Ethan stood in the shower, he recalled the past. Ethan was very grateful to Kurt for sacrificing his life. But in the process of fulfilling Marina's wishes back then, he had even ruined his own marriage.

He should have repaid Kurt's kindness in full a long time ago.

From now on, he wanted to live purely for Olivia and their children.

If the favor was a chain that bound him, he would break it with his own hands.

Sadly, he realized all this only after he lost everything. If he had come to his senses earlier, he wouldn't have wasted all those years away from his family.

When he opened the door, he saw that Olivia had already prepared clothes for him.

He had shamelessly placed some of his clothes here before. When he saw the clean clothes on the bed, a warm smile graced his lips.

After dressing neatly, he noticed that Olivia had asked for some fresh ingredients to be delivered. She was wearing an apron as she cooked up a meal in the kitchen.

Ethan hugged her from behind. Warm air filled the whole room, accompanied by the fresh smell he had on him after washing up.

"Liv, I'm so glad you're here."

He was worried that when he went downstairs, a spacious yet cold living room would await him. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Now, Olivia was quite capable. She could just turn around and leave if she got upset. She would find a place to hide just like she had done before, and he wouldn't ever be able to find her.

"Breakfast will be ready soon."

Olivia knew that Ethan didn't eat much last night, nor did he eat anything in the morning. She quickly made some chowder and some other foods to go along with it. She also toasted the bread she bought. Soon, steaming breakfast was laid out on the dining table. Ethan felt as if he was in another world.

In the past, he could witness this scene every day. But now, it was a luxury to him.

“Liv, thank you." He held her hands. They had gone through so much together that only they could understand how difficult it was to have a routine life like this.

Lowering her head, Olivia said in a low voice, "Actually, the children miss you too. Even though Willow has never met you as her father, she has always wanted to know the kind of man her father is.

“In a few days, we'll go and get the kids home so that we can spend New Year's together.”

"Alright." Ethan instantly beamed.

In the afternoon, the Carltons came knocking.

When Marina came, Ethan had just woken up from his nap. He was sitting on the couch, reading.

He was wearing a beige turtleneck cashmere sweater. His legs were crossed as he casually leaned against the couch. He was extremely relaxed as if he were in his own home.

He used to only wear dark clothes, but now, he was suddenly wearing a light-colored outfit. The coldness he exuded had decreased a lot, and he somehow even looked gentler.

“You're here." He looked up, behaving just like the man of the house.
