Unfinished Business with You novel

Chapter 312

Chapter 312

Old Man Nolan seemed to be taken aback when he saw his own tear landing on the photo. Hastily, he wiped it away with the back of his hand as though he was worried that it might dirty the photo.

The corners of Olivia’s lips twitched twice upon seeing his reaction.

Oh, my lord. While her son’s gift managed to make Old Man Nolan laugh, hers turned out to be a tear-jerker.

Because of that, she gave Eugene an apprehensive stare and received a soothing look from him. It was because he knew his grandfather was shedding tears because he was touched.

When his grandfather was a young man, he refused to have a picture taken together with his wife, let alone wearing a matching outfit because he wasn’t used to expressing his feelings readily. Eugene reckoned it must be one of his grandfather’s biggest regrets in life. Most people tended to postpone some of the most important things in life thinking that they still had a long way ahead to go, but more often than not, the person whom they assumed would stay by their side forever would be gone at the most unexpected time. By the time they wanted to do something to make it up to them, it was all but too late.

Old Man Nolan was very touched because through Olivia’s photo, his wish which he previously thought could not be fulfilled was realized.

In fact, he was really surprised by her gift because he had no clue that this was the reason Olivia had asked for his wife’s photo. At the same time, he reckoned that she must have designed his wife’s dress in the photo herself as well because otherwise, the photo wouldn’t have turned out to look so great.

Every time he spent time with Olivia and his son, he would always feel warmth in his heart. In fact, he really valued a gift not by how much it was worth, but how much effort one had put in to prepare it.

It took Old Man Nolan a long time to recover from the emotional wave. He looked up at Olivia with some complicated emotion surging beneath his pupils but he managed to stop it from overcoming him just in time.

“Doctor Maxwell, thank you very much for your gift because I like it a lot. I bet it must have taken you much effort to prepare it, am I right?”

Doctor Maxwell? Eugene raised his brows slightly as it seemed like his grandfather was on the same page as him.

Olivia felt relieved as though a heavy load was lifted from her heart upon knowing that her gift was to Old Man Nolan’s liking. “It’s not a big deal as long as you like it!”

At that moment, all the other guests were wearing various expressions on their faces in response to the scene. They had no choice but to admit that Olivia and her son’s gifts had indeed captured Old Man Nolan’s heart despite not having much monetary value.
