Chapter 784
Even After Death
âHave you seen a cave full of fireflies? It was so beautiful. The fireflies were like stars in the sky.
âThere was also a place called the Earthâs Eye. Itâs a colorful lake that looks like an eye when you look
down from above.
âThereâs a place called Death Gorge. Have you heard of it?
âThere are also glaciers in the North Pole that flow into the valleys. They form icefalls that cascade
down the side of the valleys. It is truly an amazing view.â
Oliviaâs eyes were filled with yearning as she listened.
âHow nice would it be if I could see these sceneries in person? Itâs embarrassing, but Iâve never been to
many places.
âItâs okay, Ms. Fordham. Youâll be fine. Iâve seen many people with terminal diseases survive
miraculously.
âIâll bring you to these places when you get better, as long as you pay me. How about that?â
A breeze blew and sent shivers down Oliviaâs spine. She pulled the blanket tighter around her.
Then, she raised her hand and caught a falling plum blossom.
Snowball became excited and started chasing falling plum blossoms around. It was a very serene
atmosphere.
Olivia smiled. âIâll visit these places someday.â
The world was a big place.
She wanted to visit many places. Do things that she had never done. She also wanted to look for her
missing twins.
As her mood improved, the days were more tolerable.
Keith was relieved to see her complexion improve. So, the frequency of his visits declined.
At the end of the month, Keith and Irene held their engagement ceremony.
Although they didnât exactly come from the most prestigious families, they still hailed from families of
renowned medical professionals. Many people showed up to congratulate the couple.
Olivia wanted to attend, too. But she didnât dare to risk it.
She didnât want the Millers to find her. So, she could only wait at home and look at the pictures and
videos Irene sent her.
Irene also talked to her in a proud and happy voice.
âI really wish you could be here, Olivia.â
Olivia zoomed in on the picture. Irene had a bright smile and a hopeful glow in her eyes.
Keith stood beside her. He was tall and handsome. There was a faint smile on his face, too.
Olivia could feel the happiness emanating from them from the photos. It brought a smile to her face, but
tears suddenly started to flow as she was smiling.
The tears fell on her phoneâs screen. She could see her past self in Irene. She was also excited and
happy when she registered her marriage with Ethan at the City Hall.
When the photographer took a picture of them that day, she thought that would be how it was for the
rest of her life.
Who knew things would turn out the way they did?
Two people who loved each other ended up becoming strangers, never to be reunited.
The love was gone, replaced by seething hatred and crippling grief.
She looked at the sky as tears streamed down her face. She was reminiscing about the youth she lost.
Suddenly, a glass of lemonade appeared before her. She raised her head and saw Logan.
He was carrying several bags of groceries. He had a sincere smile on his face.
âMs. Fordham, I bought these at the supermarket just now. I heard that young women lo
âI thought you would love it, too, since youâre still very young. Why are you crying?â
Olivia wiped her tears and said, âItâs nothing. I was just happy for Dr. Rogers and Irene. I hope they can
live happily ever after.
âThere are too many couples that love each other but end up separating.
âI hope they can break the curse and stay together for the rest of their lives.â
âYouâre being so sentimental now, Ms. Fordham. Did you love someone with such vigor in the past?â
