Chapter 466
Before Olivia got to speak, Fred already rejected him without any mercy.
“Don’t even think about it. Get your chicks out there to eat with you. Leave my sister alone.”
Xavier pretended to be emotional and sighed. “Fred, ever since I got to know your sister, I’ve dumped
all of them away. I still prefer mature women.”
“You!”
Those words were sweet to hear, but unfortunately, Olivia was not who she used to be.
She smiled politely, “Alright, let’s eat. I’m hungry.”
Fred wanted to fight back, but he swallowed the words back after hearing what she said.” Okay, I’ll set
up the table.”
Olivia picked up Lyla, took a scoop of scrambled eggs, and blew on it slightly, “Here, have some eggs.”
Lyla took the spoon and smiled, “Yummy. But Mommy, Lyla can eat by myself.”
“Mommy hasn’t fed you for quite some time. Let Mommy do this, okay?”
After thinking for a bit, Lyla nodded. “Alright, but only the eggs.”
“Okay.”
Olivia felt as if she was dreaming.

three years old.
However, Lyla did not.
She was very obedient while still having the innocence of a child in her.
Her smiles were very healing. Every time Olivia felt sad while thinking about the past, everything felt
worth it whenever she saw her smile.
Xavier looked at them with a meaningful gaze, no one could see through what he was
thinking.
After the meal, Olivia’s mood improved.
In fact, she should also thank Fred and Xavier rather than just Lyla.
The two would constantly talk back at each other like two kids, and they even fought for food which
amused her and relieved her tense emotions.
When Fred was washing the dishes, Xavier stood up. “It’s getting late, Pheebs. I won’t disturb your
rest.”
Lyla was already sleepy at that moment, and her yawns came one after another.
Olivia nodded. “Alright. Drive safe.”
Seeing her not moving, Xavier smiled, “Aren’t you going to send me off?”
Olivia was stunned, but she still stood up and walked to the porch while carrying Lyla. Just as she was
about to take the keys, Xavier stopped her.
“Don’t worry about it, stay here.”
“Oh. Be safe, then.”
While Olivia was in a daze, Xavier suddenly leaned over and moved toward her, causing her
to widen her eyes in fright and look at him in panic.
Xavier liked her look. He smirked and gave Lyla a peck on her cheeks.
“Goodbye, little Lyla.”
That being said, he wore his shoes and opened the door. “Goodbye, Pheebs.”
Olivia remained still on the spot even until the door closed.
‘What was I thinking?
‘I actually thought that Xavier was about to kiss me?
‘How embarrassing!’
After she regained her composure, she carried Lyla to the bathroom. The mother and daughter took a
bath, and after putting her to sleep, Olivia fell straight into her comfortable

It was probably because she was exhausted that she fell asleep in no time.
At that moment, her phone rang.
She wanted to decline the call, but she accidentally clicked the answer button as she had her eyes
closed.
A voice came from the other end of the line. “Ms. James, it’s me.”
Hearing the familiar voice, she immediately woke up. Staring at the phone number, her eyes darkened.
“Mr. Freeman, do you need anything at this hour?”
“You’ve been attacked twice today. I’m afraid that you might be put in danger before the culprit gets
arrested. I suggest you stay home these two days.”
After a pause, he continued. “Give me your address, and I will send a few men over to protect you.”
‘Address?’
Olivia did not believe that he was unable to find her address.
However, she felt that if she did not tell him her address, he might actually not come over.
“It’s fine.”
‘No matter what, I cannot let him discover Lyla!’
