Chapter 879
Olivia shuddered and looked over in dread.
“Sam, you… Why are you here?”
“Godmother, I heard it all.”
Olivia was so nervous that her lips trembled. Her nails dug into her flesh, and she even forgot how to breathe.
Even though she had been preparing herself to face it, she was suddenly afraid when the moment came.
Sam approached her and held her hands with his little hands. Then, he lifted his head and looked at her.
“Godmother, no matter what happened four years ago, I will never hate you, let alone leave you.”
Olivia frowned. “Sam, if you knew the truth. ”
“I know what you wanted to tell me.”
Sam interrupted her. “You wanted to tell me you are why my mother died. My mother would not have died if it were not for you, right?”
Olivia was startled and looked at him.
Sam was only 11 this year, yet he was so sensitive and could even guess what was happening…
“If it weren’t for you, Godmother, I would’ve delivered those things. I would’ve probably died one day, gotten arrested by the police, or become a drug addict. My life wouldn’t end well.
“You gave me a new life and brought me away from the dirty world I was in before this. Now, I’m a boy from a wealthy family.
“Godmother, without you, I wouldn’t be living like this. You’re my savior. Why would I hate you?”
“Sam…”
Olivia looked at him in disbelief. “Aren’t you worried that I approached you because I knew your identity from the beginning?”
“No, you wouldn’t have done that.”
Unexpectedly, Sam denied it without hesitation.
‘You couldn’t have known me when you met me in Murica. You didn’t even ask me my name. If you were playing nice, you would have done it then.”
Sam touched his chest and said, “I can feel your sincerity and kindness.”
For a moment, Olivia was at a loss for words.
She only felt Sam was mature, more mature than Candy. She was ashamed.
“Moreover, my mother was sentenced to death. She could not have survived. I think my mother willingly died in the fire on your behalf.” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Sam looked into Olivia’s eyes firmly and asked, “Godmother, don’t you believe that my mother’s care for you was real?”
Olivia believed Jess sincerely cared about her!
It was just that… she felt she did not deserve it.
Olivia felt she was so stupid. Everything was so obvious, yet she did not realize it. She did not even have the chance to thank Jess until she died.
“Are you sure you don’t hate me, Sam?”
Sam nodded seriously. “Godmother, let bygones be bygones. Our hope lies in the future, right? Uncle Lucas has always taught me to look forward and get out of the past.
Why do you want to lock yourself in the past?”
Those words touched Olivia, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Every word Sam said stabbed her heart.
Finally, she crouched, hugged Sam, and cried.
Ken spoke upon seeing this, “Liv, even a kid has a better understanding of the matter than you.”
In many cases, Olivia had to admit that Sam was more open- minded than her.
However, she could not forget the past, especially after the death of those who sacrificed themselves for her.
‘Jess, look…
‘Your son is a good boy, and he’s sensible. I’ll make sure he grows up to be a successful man and make you proud by telling you how great your son is when we meet in the afterworld.’
