Chapter 3987
Under the dim moonlight, there was Dylan, noticeably thinner, which softened his facial features.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Rather than approaching him, Olivia remained where she was, silent.
After a moment of silence, they began walking side by side, resembling a couple enjoying a casual walk after dinner.
Yet, they both knew it was just an illusion.
At that moment, they were more like strangers.
Gazing at the distant scenery, Olivia said softly, “Dylan, you married me because you thought I needed the sense of security that Raphael failed to provide.
But now… As you can see, I can manage on my own and take care of Leyla, even without you around.
”
Dylan, taken aback, just stared at her in disbelief.
“As I’ve said before, our issues were never about Raphael but about something deeper,” Olivia said, managing a small smile.
She felt abandoned by Dylan when he forced her to choose!
Anyone with self-respect would move on and leave the past behind after what happened to her.
Dylan was silent, staring intensely at her without blinking.
After a long pause, he admitted awkwardly, “Olivia, can I take back what I said?”
Olivia responded with a soft smile, “You have regrets now? Is it because Raphael got engaged? Do you think that Leyla and I will come desperately crawling back to you for mercy because no one wants us now? Save your sympathy for someone else, Dylan.
Love isn’t a charity nor something to just make do with.
”
That part of her life was behind her now.
As a single mother, Olivia neither had the courage nor the time to chase after a lost relationship.
More importantly, she could no longer trust him.
She remembered that… he once promised to always love her and never be unfaithful.
Olivia was determined not to linger on these past memories.
So she said softly, “Don’t show up anymore, Dylan!”
Dylan stared at her, shocked by her words.
He felt as if he no longer knew Olivia.
It wasn’t just about their past relationship; she seemed to have transformed into someone entirely different… In the past, despite being hurt by Raphael, Olivia had always approached life with positivity and never hid her feelings, whether she was happy or not.
Now, however, Olivia appeared detached.
In fact, she always looked calm and sensible.
Over the years, Olivia had developed from a naive girl into a mature woman.
