Chapter 616
Chapter 616 Resolve Everything Outside
Olive's POV
Although I still haven't regained all of my freedom, being able to move freely inside the villa is a great thing for me at this moment
And these days, I have been trying to use Meteor's backpack to convey some messages to the outside world, but I don't know if Charlie has already managed to isolate my small actions or if I have truly been abandoned by fate. In any case, the graffiti on the Meteor backpack becomes more and more prominent, but it is of no use at all
Later on, I also dared not use brighter colors to

Charlie was crazy. If he found out that I was using Meteor, I might be bound back to that bedroom upstairs again soon
I didn't need to ruin the small amount of freedom I had finally achieved, just for a tiny chance that I didn't even know if I could seize
So I continued to force myself to pretend that I was slowly accepting Charlie, just as I had originally planned
In fact, after I expressed that I remembered he was allergic to peanut butter, Charlie's guard against me seemed to not be as strong as before
On weekend mornings, he even allowed me to sunbathe in the garden with Meteor
Sunshine, fresh air, the birdsong above my
head, all of these, for someone like me who hasn't stepped out of the house for a long time, felt like rare gifts from heaven
I even temporarily set aside the desire to escape, sitting on the wicker chair, feeling the warm sunlight, not wanting to speak another word
Of course, another reason that made me temporarily put aside the idea of escaping was that Charlie was sitting on the chair next to me, staring at me without blinking
Even with my eyes closed, I could still feel the darkness and dampness of his gaze sticking to me as I enjoyed the sunlight
But I couldn't show any resistance to this, I needed to earn his trust little by little
For example, at this moment, when I heard
Meteor wanting to go back to the kitchen to find some snacks, I immediately opened my eyes and stood up from the chair, showing concern for him like any ordinary mother would, and personally went in to bring down the fragile snack tray for him to choose from
Charlie still silently watched everything, but I knew that my actions had already made him feel very happy
So when Meteor happily ran back to the swing to eat snacks, I returned to the wicker chair, sitting less than twenty centimeters away from Charlie, and for the first time, I asked him without any pretense

"Are you planning to keep me locked up here forever? Or... can you tell me, how long exactly do you want to keep me locked up?"
I saw Charlie's face suddenly change because of this sentence
He frowned at me and then chuckled coldly after a while
"Do you still believe until now that I just wanted to imprison you? Olive, didn't you feel my sincerity towards you?"
Charlie lowered his voice, unsure whether it was because he didn't want to disrupt the peaceful atmosphere we had before, or if he, like me, didn't want to disturb Meteor who was currently in a state of happiness
But I did not become shocked or alarmed by his words; on the contrary, this was exactly the outcome I desired
I stared into his eyes, without flinching, and
began explaining
"T didn't think so, but I can't guarantee if others would think the same way."
Under Charlie's still puzzled gaze, I pulled out a smile and gently said to him,
"Just as you said, you were sincere to me, and I could feel it. But others may not think the same way. Moreover, from a legal perspective, I am currently married, and by staying here without any contact with the outside world, there are ultimately only two possible outcomes. Either I will be deemed as having an affair, or you will be deemed as having kidnapped me."
Charlie was just paranoid when it came to emotions, he wasn't a foolish person, that's where my words ended, and he seemed to understand my point quickly
"So... you wanted to solve everything outside?"
After he finally asked this question, I immediately nodded and said, "If you really want to become a family with me, why not go through some proper procedures? For example, let me divorce Aaron, or let's have an open and honest conversation to make our relationship more normal."
At least, morally or legally, I wanted a foolproof future
I knew how tempting words like "family" and "future" were for Charlie
Sure enough, his eyes, which had just shown a hint of anger, suddenly softened, and his gaze lingered on me as if he wanted to see through me
