"She said Galen is in a very safe place and that she didn't send him to his grandmother's.As for where | have no idea."
On the contrary, Olivia had a clue where Galen was.She had guessed it on the day she stopped Lily on the road.
Olivia didn't get why Lily was so adamant about keeping the secret from her.
Hearing this, Edward scoffed.
Olivia almost thought she imagined the mockery in his tone.
"Aren't you two good friends? How can you not know? After so many years, you still know nothing about her."
"I had a fallout with her because of you."
Olivia was getting a little irritated at his attitude.She stood up with a frown and threw the towel into the sink.
"I never like to pry about things she doesn't want to discuss."

"So, you're blamingnow?" Edward cast her a sideways glance.
Then he took a drag of the cigarette and sighed.
"Perhaps | shouldn't have returned."
After saying that, he stood up, casually wore the shirt thrown aside, and began to button it.
Olivia began to panic and rushed over to hug his waist.
"No! You can't leave! You can't leave!"
‘He finally cback.How can | let him leave?!” She could never tell how long it would be before he returned if she let him go this
time.
She had waited for his return for so long.She would not allow him to leave, no matter what.
Edward stopped buttoning his shirt after being hugged tightly by her.
He sighed, turned around, and put his hands on her shoulders.
"I know you and Lily are friends.Alexander and | were in the sboat as well."
Olivia did not know how to respond to that.
Instead, she buried her head in his chest quietly.
Edward gently stroked her hair with one hand and slowly said, "You and | are the same.We're sensitive, and because of this, we get
ourselves hurt.I've put my life on the line for him so many times and never regretted it.
"If it weren't for the fact that he usedas a shield for the bullet, | wouldn't have believed that he was this type of person.Look!
Look at this!"
He suddenly shoved her away forcefully and pointed at the scar left by the bullet hole.
"This is where the bullet hit me! It's here! "There are countless scars on my body, but this is the one he left when he pushed me
with his bare hands to take the bullet for him! People are selfish in the face of life and death.Can't you see that?!"
Olivia stared at the gunshot wound.
Although it was not the first tshe saw it, and the wound had already healed, she couldn't help but cry every tshe saw it.
It wasn't only because this injury almost killed him but also because of what he said.lt was hard to believe that Alexander would

Why would Alexander do that? Edward would willingly die for him.
There was no need for him to do that.
This meant that he never considered Edward to be a friend.
Despite this, this story cfrom Edward himself.He, who had escaped death, returned to tell her all this.
How could she not believe him? He didn't have to lie to her.
He wouldn't lie to her.
Olivia also found it hard to face him and Lily because of this.
"I know you're a kind woman and won't know how to tell her.That's why | didn't tell you to."
Edward gently pulled Olivia into his arms again.
"Just...leave everything to me!"
