NovelEnglishNoticing that the meal was ready, Olivia went to wake Jade.
Jade had quite a restless sleep on the chair.
She even mumbled, "The void holds no troubles..." Olivia gently woke Jade up.
"Madam Delaney, the meal is ready." Jade slowly opened her eyes.
When she saw the beautiful face in front of her, she subconsciously called out, "Sister." Olivia froze.
"What did you just call me?" It was only then that Jade cto her senses.
"Did I say anything?" "Madam Delaney, you just called'Sister.' Did you remember something?" "]..." Jade put a hand on her head.
She indeed had a dream, and she felt like she was dreaming about a woman.
But after she woke up, the dream disappeared, and she couldn't remember anything anymore.
Olivia could see how troubled Jade was, and the latter didn't seem to be faking it.
By the looks of it, she had roused sof the memories in Jade's subconscious mind.

After all, Olivia wasn't quite skilled in neurology.
Jade was elated during the meal.
"I knew that you'd be coming over this year, too.
You've been doing that for years, after all.
Still, I didn't expect you to bring a friend this year." Alan filled their glasses with wine.
"Madam Delaney, Mr. Maxwell will never forget about you no matter what.
"Dr. Ophelia, let's toast to Madam Delaney and Mr. Maxwell.
Let's wish him a happy birthday." Olivia was stunned.
"It's his birthday today?" Smiling, Jade said, "My head was injured, so I couldn't even remember who I was.
Wayne was even more pitiful.
"He was sold off repeatedly, and he doesn't even know who his family members are.
Of course, he doesn't know when his birthday is, either.
"we both suffered a lot.
“When I took him in, he was just a scrawny kid.
So, we commemorated the day of our encounter as our birthday.
"We spend our birthday together every year." Jade sounded calm about it, but Olivia was a little more affected than before.
Wayne's past was even more pitiful than the short few sentences written in his documents.
"I see." Olivia raised her glass.
Madam Delaney, here's a toast to you.
May you always be in good health and peace." “Thank you." Olivia raised her glass again, but this time, she was facing Wayne.
“Wayne, happy birthday." Wayne snorted.
"That's it? You just don't care, do you?" Even so, he gripped his glass tightly.
There was slight joy in his gaze.

You should've just kept your mouth shut, then." Wayne downed the wine.
After the meal, Olivia asked Jade, "Madam Delaney, seeing how powerful Mr. Maxwell is now, he could've let you live in a better place.
"Why did you insist on staying here? It's not safe here, and many things are lacking here." "My dear, humans can adapt to new situations, but trees can't.
“Wayne is young, so he should go out there and explore so that he can have a better future.
"But I'm different.
I'm getting old, and I'm just like those old trees.
"If I go with him, I'll only be a burden.
“Moreover, I've lived here for so many years; I've already treated this place as my home.
"No matter how imperfect this place is, no one would complain about their home.
I don't have many years left ahead of me, so I'd rather live life to the fullest.
“Also, with his identity, if people learned that he has a godmother like me, what would they think of him?" Olivia understood, so she didn't ask more about it.
She just took Jade's hand and said softly, "This is a good place.
Even vibrant flowers can bloom out of barren soil."
