Olivia remained silent on the way back. She kept thinking about the days when she and Everly were students
If they had known what would happen to them, would they have cherished their happiness more?
Joshua helped carry Alicia out of the car when they got home.
Olivia didn’t head indoors straight away. She stood under the streetlamp and looked at the swirling snow while deep in thought.
“I know you’re here
A person walked out from behind the streetlamp.
Ethan looked at her from afar and said, “I told you I won’t disrupt your life.”
They looked at each other in silence. Olivia tried to look into his eyes, but she realized she couldn’t discern the ernotions within.
“Thank you for that night

If he didn’t find a way to get the money to save her, she would be doomed if she fell into the hands of those people.
“It was my fault for letting them get to you, Ms. Fordham.”
He seemed to have stood there for stime. There was a layer of snow on his shoulders and his head.
Olivia slowly walked toward him.
Ethan felt a little uneasy. He wasn’t sure if Olivia had figured out his true identity.
He didn’t know what she would do if she knew.
It was a quiet night with no one walking around. A thick layer of snow quickly formed on the roads.
Olivia’s steps made a crunching sound as she walked on the snow.
Ethan’s heartbeat quickened as she approached him.
Olivia walked up to him and patted the snow on his shoulders.
What was she-
“I’ve already made an appointment. I’ll be going to the bank tomorrow.”
“What are you planning to do there, Ms. Fordham?”
“Giveyour account number. I’ll pay you for your services in this period of time.”
Ethan lowered his head. “So you no longer need me, Ms. Fordham?”
“He’ll findwhen I use the money. I won’t be able to escape then. He won’t let you off, Logan. Run, run as far away as you can.”
Ethan finally realized how much he had traumatized Olivia. He was like the devil to her, always lurking.
“He’s still in Vuckburg now. Besides, you’ve pretended to be dead for so long. He wouldn’t find you so easily.
“You’re not safe now, Ms. Fordham. You need my protection.
“Don’t worry, I’ll hide in the shadows. I won’t appear in your life and cause you trouble.”
Olivia sighed when she saw his meek expression.

She didn’t want to drag Logan into her mess.
“Ms. Fordham.”
“Find someplace safe and live your life to the fullest. Find a good woman and marry her. If I still have a future, I’ll look forward to meeting you again.”
Olivia smiled at him gently. “Logan, you’re a good man. Our relationship ends here. I’ll take care of myself from now on.”
Olivia walked away without looking back after she said that.
“Ms. Fordham, have you ever fallen for me? Even a little?” He called out from behind.
Olivia stopped and looked at the footprints she left on the ground.
“No. Never. I’m sorry. I will never fall in love again.”
Ethan watched as she walked away in the snow. He felt a pang in his heart.
She had turned him away again. There was no way they could be together.
Olivia walked away resolutely. She hoped that Logan could forget about her and start his own life.
As for herself, she could only press on even if her path was strewn with thorns.
