Chapter 657 She Never Doubted Her Relationship With Meteor
Charlie's POV:
I swore I tried very hard to control my
expression so as not to reveal any flaws in front of Olive
But when I heard her doubt whether our legal marriage was real, I didn't manage to hide my shock and stiffness any better, and I almost asked her if she remembered something the next second
Fortunately, I still had a trace of sanity and knew that I shouldn't ask like this
Once I opened my mouth and asked such a
question, it was undoubtedly an admission that there was actually no legal proof of marriage between Olive and me
I was not sure if this would make me lose her, but even if there was a one-in-a-million chance, I wouldn't do it
So whether she noticed my strange behavior just now or not, I couldn't continue along with her questioning, for fear of saying something wrong and making my worst fears come true
"Weren't we always together? Did we ever get divorced? Or was it that, before my accident, we were always in a divorced state, even having our own boyfriends and girlfriends? Why did Meteor say he wants Auntie and not me to be his mother?"
Before I could even come up with a plan, Olive
threw a series of questions at me
The words "having our own boyfriends and girlfriends" really shocked me
I thought I should put an end to this topic as soon as possible. I have remained single all these years and I am not afraid of Olive investigating my so-called "girlfriend" at all
But she was different, she was even the wife of the second son of the Morris Group in front of the outsiders. Once I let her investigate, everything would be exposed
I was not afraid that Olive would find out that I deceived her, nor was I afraid that she would question her own identity
What I was afraid of was that once she remembered all of this, she would immediately
leave me and turn back to Aaron
That would make my heart feel like it was being cut by a blunt knife, causing unbearable pain
I couldn't let this terrifying scene happen. I wanted Olive to always be my wife, not thinking about any other man!
I knew that what I was doing was crazy and unreasonable
But when it came to love, was there still any logic?
If God had truly endowed love with reason, then there would not have been so many stories of love and hate intertwined, and marriage and divorce would no longer exist. After all, when two people are together, they only need to communicate and reason with each other to live
each day well. Why would they need external forces to guarantee everything?
I almost convinced myself with this set of words in my mind. If I had any guilt towards Olive and Aaron before, that guilt has now dissipated like the wind and rain
After all, no one could have imagined everything that is happening now. Since fate brought Olive to me, it is enough to say that I should be the one to accompany her for the rest of her life in the following days
So when she looked up at me again, I immediately made a decision to answer her previous question in a half-truthful manner
"Our relationship did have problems, but it wasn't fatal. We have never divorced, Olive
You're just overthinking everything."
I didn't feel like I was deceiving her, we had indeed never divorced. And the so-called problem with our relationship was simply that I loved her, but she was solely focused on being Aaron's wife
Of course, Olive had no way of knowing thisContent protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
She just looked at me with some surprise after I finished speaking as if she hadn't expected me to answer so readily
So I started to add further when she was surprised about it
"But I can assure you, I have never cheated or been involved with anyone else. Meteor has his own preferences when 1t comes to people and things, he is a precocious child, but that doesn't mean my life is exactly how he sees it. If you consider every "auntie" that Meteor takes a liking to as someone I have a romantic interest
in, we would probably have many situations like today."
Olive remained silent, seemingly trying her best to discern the truthfulness of my words

"Love affairs have always been full of surprises, and this time, I would rather believe that your amnesia is a chance created by fate. I have always loved you, Olive. Please believe me and let's run our family together."
I almost blurted out all these words in my heart, and then I stared at Olive, hoping that she would soften because of it
To be honest, at the beginning of this conversation today, I was indeed caught off guard, even panicked and scared
But at this moment, I had already gained full
control
Because although I didn't expect Meteor to say those words in front of Olive, I also didn't expect Olive to doubt everything, except for her relationship with that child
Even though Meteor showed absolute dislike towards her, she did not think that their lack of closeness stemmed from a blood relationship issue
She always felt that Meteor was our son, and she was willing to embrace everything he did with love
This sounded cruel to Olive, but for me, it was a very worthwhile opportunity to take advantage of
Yes, I suppose... utilizing this for the sake of
maintaining family harmony cannot be considered as causing harm to Olive
