Chapter 412
Since that night at the pub, Ken would appear out of nowhere to send things like clothes, bags, and
supplements over, and today, he had even brought his chef over from his home.
After the meal was prepared, he sent the chef away and went to the room to look for Zyla.
“Time to eat, Zy!”
Zyla rolled her eyes at him. “Ken Lucas, make the meal yourself if you’re so great. Does it even count
for anything if you didn’t make it yourself?”
Lo and behold, the next day, Ken actually brought groceries with him and claimed he wanted to cook.
However, though he might have skillful hands in the operating theatre, this young master of the house
was not as skillful in the kitchen.
In the end, Zyla could not bear to watch him any longer and chased him out of the kitchen.
“Give me one more chance, please, Zy! I’ll learn how to cook properly for sure!”
Zyla retorted exasperatedly. “I’m worried that you’ll poison my Sis Liv, so save it.”
Ken was dejected. He lowered his head sadly as he walked towards Olivia and said sadly, “Liv, I’m at
my wit’s end. I realize that she only listens to you and no one else in this world.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia could not agree more with that.
Zyla did not listen to anyone else in the world, but she would obey Olivia blindly, no matter if she was in
the right or not.
If not, the one-month test would not even be happening.
Olivia shook her head helplessly. “Ken, don’t you think you’re rushing it?”
“I’m rushing it? I’m really in a rush here, though.”
“Ken, love and affection are the most obvious in the minute details. When you’re there whenever she
needs you and you appear whenever she misses you, that’s the true meaning of compatibility.”
Olivia paused and looked out the window. Then, she added faintly, “Also, stop bringing the baby up all
the time. Zy still thinks that you’re only acting like this because of the baby.”
He panicked. “No! I’m acting like this because of her! If it was not for her the other night, I’d soak myself
in an ice bath instead of…”
“I know that, but Zy doesn’t.”
He was stunned. After a long while, he turned to look at the woman that was in the kitchen and nodded
his head. “I understand now.”
Right after, he jogged giddily back into the kitchen.
Watching the two flirt with each other made Olivia’s smile freeze on her face. As the emotions in her
eyes grew into longing and envy, she remembered the days long gone of her and John.
They were once that happy as well.
However, that happiness was short-lived, and their pain lasted forever.
Now, she was adamant that she did not love him anymore, but every time she saw John and
reminisced about the past, her heart would still ache.
However, that ache felt like the ache she usually experienced in her lungs, the type that she had
already long gotten used to.
The next few days were similar. She felt happy too as she watched Ken and Zyla grow closer.
The day before the party, Olivia received a phone call from prison.
They said that Rainie wanted to meet her.
She was skeptical about it, but the prison guards did not elaborate.
“Let’s just go take a look, Sis Liv. What if something really happened?”
“The party is happening tomorrow. I don’t think she will bring me any glad tidings.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZyla added as she massaged Olivia’s feet. “It’s precisely because of the timing that I want to check this
out. I have a feeling she’s trying to tell us something, like the identity of the star of Jamesons’ party.”
“What does that have to do with us, though?”
Zyla stood up, looked out the window, and laughed “Well, since your legs are hurt and I don’t wanna
hear Ken nag, I’ll go on your behalf.”
Olivia frowned a little. She tugged on Zyla’s sleeves and said, “Forget it. If you’re going, we’re going
together.”
“Hey, Sis Liv, you’re in the most important time frame of recovery right now. I’ll be back before you
know it! This won’t be the last time you see me!”
“Pffft…” Olivia whacked Zyla’s arm angrily. “Don’t you start spewing nonsense! Come back quickly! I’ll
wait for you to eat lunch with me.”
“Okay! I’ll buy you a little cake on my way back too!”
“Sure.”
– Olivia turned as she watched Zyla put her coat on before she left. For reasons unbeknownst to her,
she
felt a sense of unease.
