Molly didn't fall asleep. Every time she closed her eyes, she would see that vivid red color.
Olivia gave her an acupuncture treatment as usual. "I know you're not sleeping."
Opening her eyes, Molly looked a little lost. "Olivia, have I done something wrong?"
"Yes." Olivia inserted the needles as she said calmly, "Your fault is in your meekness, and you're also
too kind."
"Olivia..."
Meeting her eyes, which were as pure as a child's, Olivia sighed. "Back then, I decided to save you
because of the look in your eyes. You remind me of my past self.
"I used to think that I could be happy if I treated everyone kindly, but the world doesn't work like that.
Sometimes, the more you care about others, the more likely they'll take advantage of you.
"Your weakness will bring you trouble, and it'll also bring misfortune to the people around you."
When Olivia said that, she recalled Mona's face when she died in front of her. If Olivia had been a little
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtstronger back then, she wondered if she could have changed the ending.
So many years had passed since then. Mona might have gotten married and had kids by now instead
of losing everything and spending eternity in the grave.
"Olivia, what should I do?"
"Stop trying to help people and respect their fates. Don't show them needless compassion. Think of
yourself and the child you had who never got to see the light of day.
"You have to be a little cruel to protect yourself and your family, alright?"
Olivia just didn't want Molly to repeat the same mistakes. Her excessive kindness would only be used
against her in the end.
Molly touched her flat belly. Just a few days ago, there was still a tiny life inside her, but now, that life
was gone.
She began to think about Olivia's words. If she weren't so weak, and if she were a little more assertive,
would the child have survived?
"Don't think about things that have already happened. You should rest and recuperate. Your utmost
priority is to recover."
"Thank you, Olivia."
Molly felt much better after listening to what Olivia said. Olivia opened the door and went out.
She didn't care what the Heath family and Yale would do to Krystal. She was just a doctor. She had
nothing to do with non-medical matters.
New Year's was coming soon, so she only wanted to reunite with the children as soon as possible.
Molly had reunited with her family, so, of course, Olivia missed her children too.
Olivia took some time to go to the Carlton residence. Marina had been eagerly waiting for her every
day.
"Vanessa, you're finally here!" Marina didn't seem to hate Olivia so much now. Instead, she treated
Olivia like a deity, and she thought of Olivia as her savior.
"I've been following the prescription you gave me. Can you perform the surgery now?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia met her enthusiastic gaze. "Do you want to stand up so badly?"
Marina had been trapped in the Carlton residence for years. She had no idea what it was like now out
there.
Even if she made it outside, she would only be met with another catastrophe.
"Yes. Every day, I hope that I can be free again."
"Free?" Olivia chuckled. "It may become another chain that binds you."
"What do you mean by that?"
Olivia smiled. "Nothing. It's exactly what it sounds like. Since you want surgery, I'll make it happen."
When Marina saw the smile on Olivia's face, she felt panicked for some reason.
"When can we have the surgery?"
"You want to do it as soon as possible, right? We'll have a detailed check-up. If it fulfills the
requirements for surgery, we'll do it tomorrow."
Olivia could barely wait to see Marina's expression when she saw Olivia's real face at the operating
table.
