Even After Death Novel (Olivia)
Chapter 257

Chapter 257

Olivia felt that human hearts were quite simple. Colin's cooking managed to heal the hurt she received from Ethan and Chloe.

The more she needed love, the easier she was touched by small acts of kindness.

In the end, Colin still noticed her sorrow. He asked, “Olivia, is there something you're upset about?”

“I need to undergo surgery, but when I look back in my life, I realize that I have no one to sign the risk acknowledgment letter for me. Am I a failure?”

Olivia spoke nonchalantly, but a pained look flashed across Colin's eyes.

“Olivia, everyone has a different definition of failure. To me, you're an outstanding woman, so you're not a failure. An unhappy marriage can only be a mistake at most.

“But we have long lives. No one can predict the future and avoid making mistakes.”

Olivia frowned a little. “You know about what happened to me?”

“Back on the cruise, I knew that Mr. Miller was holding you. I was among the crowd at the hospital that day, so I overheard your fight. Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop.”

Olivia smiled helplessly. No wonder he took so long to get food.

“It's okay. It's the truth, after all.”

Colin placed a dessert in front of her. “Olivia, if you don’t mind, I can sign the letter for you. What surgery are you getting?”

Olivia said lightly, “Stomach removal surgery.”

The calmness in Colin's expression was disturbed. “Olivia, are you..." “It's exactly what you think it is.”

“How can it be? You're so young. How could you get a terminal illness like that?"

Seeing his panicked expression, Olivia reached out and patted his head. “It's okay, Colin. I've prepared myself.

“Also, it's not as bad as you think it is. I went through chemo once, and it was very effective.”

The young man’s face was like a sheet of paper. His emotions were written clearly on his face.

His pale face was filled with worry. The corners of his eyes reddened as he choked. “You're the nicest person in the world, Olivia. You'll be okay.”

In reality, she was a little pessimistic. But her words had turned into words of comfort instead.

"Yes, I think so too.”

“It's okay, it'll be fine,” Olivia mumbled. No one knew if she was convincing Colin or comforting herself.

For the next few days, she prepared herself according to the doctor's instructions. She cut off almost all contact with the

outside world.

She even paused her investigation into Jackson's matter. She didn't want these unrelated things to affect her mood.

The only person she was worried about was Jack. His phone had been turned off ever since he left. There was no news of him even now, and no one knew if he was dead or alive.

The weather had been nice lately. Seagulls soared above the sea, and the cherry trees in the residential area had bloomed.

Olivia would go downstairs for a walk sometimes. It seemed to be raining petals, and the scenery was breathtaking to watch.

She would subconsciously think of Ethan and Marina's engagement ceremony. It would definitely be extremely luxurious and

beautiful.

Since that day, Ethan never came to visit. They finally returned to their respective lives.

Even though she consciously avoided any news of them, she could still hear rumors about them from passersby.

Ethan was the perfect man in their eyes.

When the women discussed in excitement how nice he was to Marina, Olivia walked past them calmly.

It was as if she didn’t know the subjects of their conversation.

Opening her palm, Olivia caught a petal in her hand. She thought that the cherry trees on the island must be in bloom as well.

Sensing someone watching her from behind, Olivia turned around warily. She met a pair of dark eyes that contained a lingering hint of emotion.
