Irene rested her head on Keith's shoulder.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she watched Olivia walk up the ship.
“For some reason, I just feel like crying.
I feel like Olivia has suffered too much.
She left as things were just starting to get better.
"And now she will be spending so much time at sea.
What if ...
What if something happens to her at sea?" Keith wrapped his arm around her shoulder and comforted her.
“Everything will be fine.
Tobias has sailed for more than 20 years without any incident.
Olivia might have suffered a lot, but her luck isn't that bad.
“I've worked as a doctor for so many years.
Fortune had to have smiled on her for her to survive what she had gone through.
"She has already been through so much.
Things will get better for her.
Every dog has its day, after all." "IT hope so.
I don't understand why she would go back to Aldenvine at the risk of being discovered.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt's much safer here, far away from Ethan." Irene sighed.
“She must have something important that she needs to do.
Something so important that she couldn't wait a few more months.
“Don't worry, I kept an ace up my sleeve.
I arranged for someone to protect her.
I wouldn't have let her go on the journey alone." “That's reassuring.
Let's head home." A sailor helped Olivia onto the boat.
He was very polite to her, like she was an important guest.
It was clear that Keith spent a pretty buck to sort things out for her.
She was very grateful for his help.
She planned to repay his kindness several times over in the future.
After she got on the ship, the captain started to tell her about the ship's structure with a warm attitude.
"Miss, I've been briefed by Mr.
Rogers.
I'll make sure your trip is as comfortable as it can be.
"But since this is a cargo ship, it wouldn't be as fast as other transportation.
We'll be at sea for quite some time.
I hope you can bear with us." "T understand." "Alright.
My name is Tobias.
Look for me if you need anything.
I'll get someone to show you to your room." "Thanks, Mr.
Tobias.
I appreciate it." "No need to thank me.
I'm just doing my job.
Right this way." Olivia's room was on the fourth floor.
She had a good view, and the room had been touched up beforehand.
Even the sheets were new.
There were even flowers.
"Ms.
Fordham, if you need anything, tell me now since the ship hasn't set sail yet.
After we set sail, you'll have to wait until we reach the next stop.
We won't stop midway." “Everything looks fine.
I don't have anything I need for now." “Alright then.
We'll be setting sail." The ship started to move.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia stood on the deck and looked at Keith and Irene, who were on shore.
Irene was waving at her.
Olivia also waved back at her.
They might never get to meet again after this.
She really liked this city.
It was safe, the weather was nice.
Even the winters weren't as chilly.
Spring arrived so quickly, and it brought life back into the world.
Flowers blossomed and decorated the city with bright and beautiful colors.
It was autumn in Aldenvine.
The difference was night and day.
Time passed really quickly.
A few more months and a whole year would've passed.
Olivia wondered if her acquaintances in Aldenvine were doing good.
The winds at sea gradually grew stronger, so Olivia prepared to return to her room.
She was met with a familiar face when she turned around.
She looked at the smiling man in surprise.
"Why are you here?" Logan smiled as he explained, "Mr.
Rogers gave me another job.
To bring you back to Aldenvine safely." Olivia was pleasantly surprised by the reunion.
But in a way, she kind of expected it.
