Olivia glanced at the main entrance as she spoke.

Thomas should be here by now. Why isn’t he here yet? He couldn’t have forgotten. I reminded him about it.

“There’s someone who isn’t here yet?” Ophelie was startled. Who is it? Dad and Grandpa are here, as well as me, her little sister. As for her friends… I know her well enough to know that the only friends she’s close to are here already too. Who else is she waiting for?

“Who is it, Olivia?” Ophelie quizzed.

Olivia blushed. “A-A friend…”

Ophelie walked over to the dining table and asked Norman, “Dad, does Olivia have a boyfriend?”

“A boyfriend?” Norman looked at Olivia who was looking around at the entrance and shook his head. “That’s impossible. If she did, she would’ve told me about it. Don’t make such wild guesses.”

“Hah! Kids don’t tell their parents everything these days!” Ophelie retorted with a pout.

Norman frowned. Thanks to Ophelie’s question, he suddenly recalled Olivia’s strange behavior the past few days. She rarely smiled and laughed in the past, but she had been doing that so much more lately.

It was hard for others to notice since Olivia stayed by herself, but Norman saw her often at the company.

“Who do you think Olivia’s waiting for then? All of her friends and family are here. We’re the ones who’ve been celebrating her birthday with her every year.”

Norman shook his head. “I don’t know. She didn’t tell me. Relax. We’ll find out once the person arrives.”

He was also curious to know who his daughter was waiting for.
