Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 131

Chapter 130

Connor had always hoped to see Olivia again. Wobbling, he ran toward Olivia.

Smiling at him, she reached out to him. “My dear Connor, do you want to leave with me?”

Connor did not understand her words. All he knew was that she reached out to him. All he needed to do was to grab hold of her

hand.

He placed his chubby little hand into Olivia’s palm without hesitation, allowing her to raise him up. He held onto Olivia’s neck

He rubbed his face against Olivia like a puppy before saying in an affectionate tone, “Mama.”

Olivia looked at him lovingly, saying, “Silly boy, I’m not your mother. You should call me Aunt.”

At the moment, everyone else was gathered at the front of the ship to watch the fireworks show. She was able to carry Connor away with no issues.

Olivia brought Connor to her room, where there was cake. She put a birthday hat on Connor and lit up the candle. She then sang him a birthday song in a gentle tone.

Connor did not know what she was doing, but he smiled at whatever she did.

Olivia took an emerald necklace out from a small box. It had a cute design, and the emerald was shiny. Connor’s name was engraved on the necklace.

“I had prepared this for my son. But I didn’t get to give it to him. Since you share his name, I’ll give it to you.”

Connor reached out to grab the necklace. The way he laughed looked a lot like Ethan.

Olivia put the necklace on his neck and kissed him on the cheek. “Happy birthday, Connor.”

She looked at him lovingly. Thinking of her child, he probably would’ve looked like this if he was still alive.

Olivia cut two slices of cake. She even removed the cream and fruits from them. Connor grabbed a spoon, but he didn’t know how to use it yet. He wanted to eat the cake but wasn’t able to. He could only wave his chubby little hands around.

He also leaned toward the plate and licked at the cream. Some of the cream got on his nose.

Olivia looked at him with a gentle look, saying, “Look at you, you got cream everywhere.”

She ate the cake in big mouthfuls with a smile. But her tears just wouldn’t stop flowing.

Seeing her tears, Connor tried to comfort her clumsily, “Cry Cry…”

Olivia wiped at her tears, picked up Connor, and said softly, “Little one, I had a baby of my own too.”

Connor didn’t understand her. Reaching out, he wiped at the tears on Olivia’s face.

“But my baby has gone someplace far away. I miss him every day. Little one, why do you have to be Marina’s child?”

Olivia sat down with him in her arms. She kept talking, not caring that he didn’t understand.

“I used to be a little princess at your age. I had loving parents. But my mother left one day. I chased her car until I fell on the ground. I wasn’t able to catch up to her.”

“My father was good to me. He raised me and educated me. Then, I fell in love with a man. I had a baby with him. Later on, my father fell sick and my family separated. My baby was gone. Even my lover became my enemy. Why am I such a failure?”

Connor hugged Olivia with his arms, feeling her tears falling onto his neck. He didn’t know why she was crying so much… But he knew he didn’t want her to cry.

“Mama, no, no,” he said with great difficulty. But he wasn’t able to say anything else.

Olivia wiped away her tears. She then brought Connor to the deck on the second floor, according to her original plan.
