Chapter 652
Although Harold felt anxious that neither Ethan nor Olivia wanted kids at the moment, there was nothing he could do.
He was a quick-witted man and would think of other ways to achieve his goal. He proceeded to
change the topic.
âAlright, itâs fine if you donât want a baby yet. Now that I think about it, my birthday is just around the corner, and I havenât celebrated it since your grandmother passed.
âSince both of you are here this time, we should take the chance to liven things up. Why donât you
take care of it, Liv?â
Olivia waved her hand in refusal and said, âThis wonât do. Mrs. Miller Senior should be the one to
do it. Sheâs the head of the household.
âAlso, I just got here and donât really know how to start. I wonât be very good at it.â
Haroldâs birthday celebration had to be a huge event, not just a simple dinner.
It would be a very challenging task, from inviting the guests to handling every detail of the
banquet.
The Millers were a prestigious family. They would become laughingstocks if Haroldâs birthday
celebration were subpar.
Ethan frowned and asked, âGrandpa, do we have to organize a banquet? We should just have a
simple family dinner.â
Harold flicked Ethan on the forehead.
âYou brat, itâs not every day that one celebrates his 80th birthday. It might even be my last
birthday before Iâm reunited with your grandmother.
âWhy canât you just let me have my fun? Alright, thatâs settled. Now, come have breakfast with me.

Harold didnât give them a chance to talk back. He just dragged them along for breakfast.
As they were walking, Ethan whispered to Olivia, âGrandpa wants to use this opportunity to announce your identity to the public. Youâll be the mistress of the Miller Family after that.
Olivia furrowed her brows. Subconsciously, she was rejecting the prospect of becoming the
mistress of the Miller Family.
âBut your mother is still in her prime. The title shouldnât fall on me.â
Seeing that she repeatedly refused anything to do with the Millers, Ethan held her hand and said patiently, âLiv, my mother has been burdened by the title of Mrs. Miller Senior her entire life.
âIn the past, she clung to it with her life. And then, she spent her days wasting away.
âNow that she has finally come to her senses, she wonât want to do anything with that title
attached to her. Youâre the most suitable person to inherit that title.
âBe honest with me. Is there something on your mind?â
Olivia said worriedly, âI ⦠donât know. I know weâre married, but I still donât remember anything.
âEven if we used to be close, I still feel like youâre a stranger sometimes. Thatâs why I donât want
our relationship to move so fast.â
âLiv, I understand your feelings, but have you ever considered my situation? Youâre the person I love the most, and you suddenly lost all memories of me. Your rejection makes me feel sad.â
Olivia hugged Ethan and apologized, âIâm sorry. I was only thinking about myself and didnât even
consider how you felt.â
âLiv, I donât mind giving you time to accept me. But I hope it wonât take forever, okay?â
âYeah. I know. Iâm sorry.â
Ethan gently patted her on the back and said, âYou never have to apologize to me, no matter what. Iâll try my best not to pressure you, but you know how it is with my family.
âYouâre going to be Mrs. Miller. Iâll handle everything at work, but Iâll need your help in getting the
domestic affairs in order.â
Olivia lowered her head and said, âIâm afraid that I might not do a good job.â
Ethan tilted her chin up and gazed into her eyes. His eyes were gentle and loving. âIâm sure
whatever you do would be perfect.â
âYou ⦠What if I mess up?â
âDonât worry, Iâll come up with a backup plan. Just try your hand at our familyâs domestic affairs
with Grandpaâs birthday banquet.â
