Ethan knew Olivia so well that he was certain she wouldn't stay by his side after what had happened.

He had long expected such a day would come, so he had been avoiding her and simply wishing that the day would come later.

She first poured him a glass of water before seating herself on a chair. "Speaking about it, this is the first time I've poured you a glass of water even though you've been looking after us for a long time."

' Would you like to take your medicine?" asked the concerned Olivia.

"It’s alright. It's just the coughing. I'm much better now."

"Thank you so much for what you've done for us. You're a nice person. You're hard-working and experienced. It's unbecoming of me to make you look after the kids. You're still young. You should try building a career out there," she said implicitly.
