Even After Death

Willow, who was sitting in the darkness, watched the hugging couple quietly.

A light smile adorned her lips.

She was holding a phone, broadcasting it live for her siblings.

Zack's excited voice rang out.

"Closer, closer! I can't see clearly!"

Alicia pushed his head away.

"Be quiet! Don't disturb Mom and Dad.Move aside, big head.I can't see!"

“Who are you calling big head? Connor, look at her! We're twins.If I have a big head, she has a big head too."

The twins always argued whenever they were in each other's presence, the polar opposite of Connor and Willow.

Although Willow couldn't speak, she felt blessed.

Her parents were hugging sweetly right in front of her, and her siblings were getting along so well.

This was how a family should be.

Olivia mentioned that she would remarry to Ethan after returning to Aldenvine.

When that happened, they would be a real family.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

That day would come very soon.

Olivia didn't show up these two days.

She had been taking care of her family in secret.

David was in a good mood with her around.

He always stared at his long-lost found daughter.

He also kept reading information about her past again and again.

He even wished to hear more about her stories from her.

Olivia performed acupuncture on him while recounting her past, "I actually had a great life when I was young.My adoptive father loved me and gave me the best.He gave me all the love I needed."

David stroked her head.

"I can tell that he was a gentle person.He raised you well."

"Yeah.If he were still alive, he'd surely be happy that I finally found my real family.Although my life was once mere darkness, he was the light that kept the darkness off the bay; the motivation to keep me moving forward.That's how I was able to come to you guys."

It was because she received love that she was able to grow up to be a gentle person.

Even when things were rough, she could slog through it with sole perseverance.

“It must've been painful at that time."

David recalled how her life was in danger several times.

Olivia gently shook her head.

“It's okay.It's all in the past."

She rested her forehead against his palm.

"Life wasn't that bad, actually.Although my adoptive mother didn't love me, my adoptive father gave me his all.Then, I met Ethan.

He loved me genuinely before, pampering me with all his love.

“Although my life once turned unfortunate, I was pregnant.My kids gave me hope, and I gritted my teeth through it.Look at me.People have tried to assassinate me many times, but I'm still able to come to you.I gained good from the bad."

No ordinary person could be as mentally stable as Olivia was.

Despite her young age, she was wise enough to see through a lot of things.

"Sir."

Ethan stood by the door, holding some presents.

Unlike his usual rigid attitude, he appeared to be careful and approachable today.

Olivia found it hilarious.

It had been a long time since she saw this side of him.

She never thought of seeing such a timid Ethan in her life.

What a rare find! “What brings you here? Who let you in? Leave! Get out of here!"

David was livid the moment he saw Ethan.

His eyes glared at Ethan as though he would skin Ethan alive the next second, unlike his gentle self when he spoke to Olivia.

It was as though he had turned into a completely different person.
