Since they had decided to live together, they were determined to be good parents.
They were committed to giving the kids the best.
Olivia couldnt object to this suggestion.
As a mother, she would do anything for Leyla and Eason.
But those memories⦠they lingered, making it hard for her to drop her guard around Dylan like before.
Dylan was not oblivious to this, of course.
That was why he decided to woo her as if theyd just met, hoping Olivia would feel cherished once more. He wanted her to see his love and learn to trust him again.
Most importantly, he wanted Olivia to know hed go to great lengths for her.
Leyla, eavesdropping on their chat, giggled.
Meanwhile, she ordered a chicken combo for herself.
For Dylan, she ordered a bottle of wine, steak, and a hefty salad.
And for Olivia, she arranged the pork chops combo.
Dylan praised Leyla for her good choices.
But Olivia, wearing a solemn expression, remarked, Whos driving if youve had wine? ..
Leyla and I will be in the back.
I havent seen my sweetheart in ages, I miss her loads! Olivia remained silent at this.
Glancing at her, Dylan whispered softly, Other men have their wives pick them up when theyre drunk.
I want that too.
Olivia found Dylan unexpectedly annoying! After parking the car, he even asked to sleep in her room to improve their relationship.
As they negotiated, Mark cleared his throat and said, Whats the matter? You sent the child away, huh? Dylan, have you got time for a game of chess? Dylan was at a loss for words. After a moment, he responded respectfully, Sure, Id love to.
Olivia got out and held Marks arm as they walked into the house together.
Dylan quietly followed.
Mark suddenly asked, Are you two back together? Yes, but were not getting married, Olivia replied softly.
To her surprise, Mark didnt object.
He smiled faintly and said, Smart move! That guy needs a wake-up call! When a man does something stupid, dont blow your top or rush to get a divorce.
Let him sweat it out, and make him work hard while supporting the family, waiting for that day you decide to forgive him.
Thats the Lesson!
