27 The Father Who Appeared In Her Dreams
That’s right!
She did not trust Oliver Walker!
She did not trust him at all!
For the sake of Olivia’s safety, she would never make a choice that she could regret for the rest of her life!
“Mummy…..mummy…”
Just when Oliver Walker was still contemplating if he should leave or stay, Olivia, who was asleep earlier, started opening her eyes and called for her mother in a soft voice.
Her voice instantly melted Emilia’s heart which was burning with rage. How would she still be in the mood to question Oliver?
She quickly ran to her daughter. Her beautiful eyes were filled with concern as she asked anxiously, “Olivia, how do you feel now?”
“Does it still hurt a lot?”
The person she cared most about was her daughter!
Olivia smiled and said, “Mummy, it….it doesn’t hurt.”
But this was a lie, and it was not something that Emilia and Oliver would fall for.
Olivia was frowning her brows. She had been resuscitated one day ago. Her body was still weak. This was something that even an adult would not be able to handle. How could a kid like her do it?
Seeing how understanding their daughter was, both the adults felt even more heartbroken.
Emilia gently caressed her daughter’s forehead as she bit her lips. There was so much sorrow for her to say, but she did not know how.
“Mummy!”
“I dreamt of daddy!”
Olivia said with great effort, “He…..he returned. He even said that he would never leave me!”
Oliver was standing by the door. Olivia was only looking at her mother, so she did not notice that there was another person inside the room.
She said softly, “I dreamt of daddy saying that he will be by my side as I grow up.
“He even told me to be an honest and brave little girl with integrity.”
“I…..promised him!”
“Mummy, why….why are you crying?”
She reached out her little hands and tried to wipe off the tears on her mother’s face, but she did not have the strength.
“It’s…nothing.”
Emilia tried to hold back her tears. Her eyes were filled with fear. She wanted to tell Olivia that the man was standing right behind her.
However…
That man had been useless. He didn’t feel remorseful at all and even tried to give up on Olivia’s treatment so that he could use the money for himself.
How could she tell her daughter about such a man?
In fact, her father wasn’t even a great hero. He was just a stubborn, irresponsible asshole!
Olivia frowned as her brows tighten, “Mummy, please don’t be sad. I believe in daddy…. He will definitely come home with victory!
“We missed him so much. He will definitely be missing us as well!
“Am I right?”
The words that came out of Olivia’s mouth were hurting Emilia’s heart once again.
Oliver, on the other hand, couldn’t keep his silence another. He tried to suppress his emotions as he stepped forward with a smile, “Olivia!”
“I…”
He wanted to tell Olivia the truth. He didn’t want Olivia to suffer any longer because of how much she missed him.
But…
A cold glare came from the other side.
It was a warning from Emilia. It was obvious that she didn’t want him to tell the truth!
That’s when he had to swallow the words that were already in his mouth.
He could no longer provoke Emilia, who was already extremely sensitive. Therefore, he had to keep it in forcefully.
“Uncle!”
There was a bright pure smile that appeared on Olivia’s face as she said, “Why are you here?”
“Mummy, look! This is the uncle who has been really nice to me!
“He did not look down on me. He…..even help me with an act.”
Oliver’s appearance was a surprise to her.
For some reason, she felt that Oliver Walker was someone extremely friendly, and he was exactly the same as her father who appeared in her dreams.
