Fated To Not Just One, But Three

Chapter 120

Chapter 120: What we did was wrong

Lennox's POV

The line went dead, and with it, so did a part of me.

She smiled after the call ended. A full, bright smile. Like nothing was wrong. Like she hadn't just taken a dagger and stabbed it straight into my soul with those three damn words.

"I love you, Gabriel."

The sound of it kept echoing in my head, looping like a curse I couldn't exorcize.

Olivia sat back, finally relaxed for the first time since she woke up. Her hands weren't trembling anymore. Her breathing was even. She even gave a soft hum like she felt… safe.

Because of him.

She stretched slightly, then looked up at us like a doe blinking away the rain. "I'm… hungry," she said, rubbing her stomach gently. "Could I… have something to eat, please?"

Nora and Lolita immediately stepped forward. "Of course. We will prepare something for you."

She smiled at them. "Thank you."

I watched her in silence. She wasn't shaking anymore. The fear had passed. Her walls had lowered.

And I—fool that I am—saw that as a chance.

I stepped closer, dragging the nearest chair out and sitting across from her.

She didn't flinch. That was something.

She looked at me curiously. "You are Lennox, right?" she asked.

The words burned like acid.

I forced a smile, even though my jaw ached from how hard I was clenching it. "Yeah. I'm Lennox."

She tilted her head, studying me with soft sea-blue eyes that held no recognition—no sign of connection. Just empty curiosity. "You're quiet."

I shrugged. "I was just… thinking."

She nodded. "I've been thinking too. About everything. About why I'm here. It's strange, but… Gabriel said I'm safe. So, I'll trust you."

Her trust—given to me, but only because of him.

I cleared my throat. "Can I ask you something?"

She blinked. "Sure."
