Chapter 4012
He was a professor at a well-known university in Duefron, had studied abroad for several years, and was handsome.
He was divorced but had no children from that marriage.
His ex-wife had wanted to stay abroad, while he insisted on returning home.
After living separately for five years, they eventually decided to divorce.
His family had business ties with the Evans family, and his hometown was also Czanch.
Given these factors, Cecilia believed he would be a good match for Olivia.
In fact, his mother was friends with Cecilia and had mentioned the idea to her more than once.
Cecilia hadn’t responded to the suggestion directly, curious about how Olivia would react.
She expected Olivia to hesitate, but after glancing at the man’s photo, Olivia said softly, “I’d like to meet him in person.
If the first impression isn’t too bad, it’s worth a try.
”
Cecilia worried that Olivia was only doing this to please her.
Olivia took a sip from her coffee cup and said quietly, “Mom, don’t worry about me.
I’m serious.
I need to move on, right?”
She set down her cup and bid Cecilia farewell.
Later that afternoon, she planned to take Leyla to an early education center.
After getting into the car and preparing to start the engine, a message popped up on her phone.
She checked it and felt tears welling up as she read Dylan’s message “I’m back, Olivia.
” Just those few words struck her deeply.
Olivia kept her head down and stared at the text for ages.
Ever since the accident, despite everyone said Dylan was dead, she’d been waiting to hear from him, hoping he’d magically come back to life.
And he did.
And this time he had vanished for a whole month.
It was only now that he had finally reached out.
She should’ve been thrilled but she wasn’t.

She just stared at her phone, not knowing what to say exactly.
Eventually, Olivia set her phone aside and sat there dazed before starting her car.
She had to drop Leyla off at the preschool.
Leyla was really too young for that program they had, but she was so adorable that the teachers there made an exception for her.
As they were about to leave, Leyla held Olivia’s hand and gave everyone a sweet little goodbye, which melted the teachers’ hearts.
Afterwards, Olivia gave Leyla a loving kiss.
Leyla wrapped her little arms around Olivia’s neck and hugged her tight.
Anyone could see how close they were, mother and daughter.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
But when Olivia looked up, her smile froze.
