She didn’t have the courage to bid Everly farewell.
Besides, Olivia had guessed that there had been a lot of people spying on her.
It wasn’t easy coming this far. She didn’t want anyone to disrupt the plan.
“Okay. I’ll help you with that.” Colin was always agreeable to her requests.

Whenever her phone vibrated, she quickly checked the incoming notification. Then, disappointment appeared all over her face.
She didn’t seem to be enjoying her meal either. She kept stuffing food into her mouth.
It was as though the taste didn’t matter at all as long as it could fill her stomach.
She didn’t even notice that she had eaten celery, the food she hated the most.
She took a few spoonfuls of the food before picking her phone up again.
Olivia faced the back of Everly.
The latter was looking at Olivia’s picture during their schooling days.
Sof the pictures were taken during embarrassing times in her life.
Previously, Everly even claimed that she would display them on a loop at Olivia’s wedding.
Unfortunately, Olivia didn’t hold a wedding. Neither did she marry the man she loved and beca housewife like what she had dreamt of in high school.
Tears dripped onto the phone screen.
Olivia could hear Everly’s trembling voice, “Liv…”
Olivia burst into tears upon hearing that one word.

She quickly bought an umbrella and dashed out onto the street.

Water droplets kept running down her cheeks. No one knew whether it was because of the rain or because she was crying.
Perhaps that was the only way she could finally vent her emotions.
“Liv, oh, Liv. Didn’t we promise to get old together? Why did you abandon me?”
She slapped herself. “It’s all my fault. Why did I have to be on a business trip that day?
“I could’ve been by your side. Just how afraid you must’ve been at that time, Liv?”
An umbrella sheltered her. Sensing something, she quickly raised her head to look at the incoming person.
The person holding the umbrella was an old woman.
She helped Everly up. “Miss, it’s getting cold. Get up. You’re still young.
“What is there in life that you cannot surmount? Don’t cry.”
Everly cried like a kid who lost her toy. “Granny, I lost my best friend. I can’t find her.”
The old woman passed her the umbrella. “Life is full of farewells.
“Miss, a departure isn’t necessarily a bad thing. All parting is for a better reunion.”
“Liv…”
An epiphany struck upon Everly. When she lifted her head, she thought she saw a crying Olivia in the midst of the crowd.
