Chapter 478


    Although Olivia managed to keep her babies, Ethan stripped her of thest ray of hope in her life.


    Now that he knew that he was the father, he wouldn’t let her go that easily in the future.


    However, she was sick of this game.


    As if she was trapped in a big, there was nowhere to escape.


    She neither knew how to take revenge nor saw hope.


    She couldn’t do anything during her pregnancy. The only thing she could do was stroke her belly again


    and again, praying that it would be a smooth delivery.


    Olivia’s low spirits didn’t go unnoticed by Jeff.


    He could already wander around at home because his legs got better. He didn’t need others to support


    him.


    It was the early summer, and the temperature was rising.


    Lying down under a tree, Olivia was getting sleepy and fell asleep.


    When she woke up, there was a nket over her. Jeff was waving a fan to shoo the mosquitoes away


    as he always did when she was a child.


    Her mother passed away, when she was younger, but he gave her all the love she needed.


    Her childhood wasn’t a sad one due to the absence of maternal love.


    On the contrary, she grew up into a confident and capable person under Jeff’s love.


    At that time, her eyes spoke of determination, and she gave a warm yet confident aura to others.


    He had long noticed something after he regained consciousness-it was rare to see her smile.


    She wouldn’t bring up Ethan in front of Jeff, either.


    She would put on a gentle smile sometimes, but not anymore. Aside from eating and sleeping, she was


    mostly absent-minded.


    Even though she had been forcing smiles so that he wouldn’t notice, Jeff could see through her.


    After all, she was the daughter he raised for


    years.


    Ethan was the cause of her personality change.


    Jeff didn’t know what Ethan had done. The couple’s rtionship was getting worse after Ethan took her


    back home.


    He was aware of everything, and it pained him to see her acting this way. Thus, he spent most of his


    time keeping herpany.


    Olivia was baffled to see him waving a fan gently as soon as she woke up. “Dad.”


    “You’re awake. Are you thirsty? Tea time is ready.”


    Her cheeks turned red. “I’m not a kid, Dad.”


    He chuckled and stroked her hair. “To me, you will always be a kid. I got your back.”


    “I know.”


    “Olivia, I know that you’re not having a happy life right now. Let’s leave this ce.”


    She was taken aback by that. “Is this ce bad?”


    “It’s not bad, but you’re unhappy. It’s been a long time since I saw a genuine smile on your face.


    “I don’t know what’s going on between you and Ethan. But if he’s the cause for it, I will get you out of


    here.”


    He caressed her hair gently. “I’m broke and can’t provide you the best like before.


    “But I can get a job and earn a living to feed you. Do you still remember what I said?


    “Happinesses before anything. The otherse after that. I wish to see my daughter’s happy


    face, not watching her living days gloomily.


    “I’ve been through the same thing before. If something’s wrong in a rtionship, you need time to


    ovee it.


    “You’re still young, and there’s a long life ahead of you. Give yourself and Ethan some space.”


    Biting her lip, she shook her head lightly. “We can’t leave for now, Dad. We can’t go anywhere.”

    He remained firm with his stance. “Why not? Do you think that I can’t feed you because I’m old? I-” “No.


    It’s not because of you.” She looked at her belly while stroking it. “I’m pregnant, Dad.”
