Under the pouring rain, Olivia stood in front of the grave for a long time. Her body was quite soaked by now. Unable to ignore it any longer, Ethan spoke up. “Let’s go back. It’s getting late.”

Olivia stood there silently, looking like she would disappear at any moment.

Once again, she lost a family member. She looked even lonelier now, and Ethan’s heart ached even

more for her.

Reaching out his arms, he wanted to hold her in his embrace. But Olivia looked calmly at him from under the black umbrella. Her gaze was so cold that it startled him.

But she was sad exactly because she had him.

When the mountain breeze blew past, Olivia’s lone figure looked even more determined.

Without another word, Olivia walked away. She had nothing to lose now.

Ethan felt uneasy when he noticed Olivia’s silence. He convinced himself that he needed more time to eventually heal the hurt in Olivia’s heart.

Seeing that Olivia had returned to her room once they were back home, Ethan finally sighed in relief.
