Chapter 927
Despite his sharp tongue, Joel had always been a man with a soft heart.
“Do you know how many times he had told me off? He just won’t stop scolding me. If I had not told him that you’ll
return Olivia to him, I wouldn’t have known what to do.”
“Thank you so much for pulling some strings, Uncle Tucker.”
Joel waved his hand.
“Enough with this. I promised you because I saw the potential in her. If she was useless, I wouldn’t have wasted my
time on this.
“Let’s talk about you. Are you really willing to let her go? Don’t regret it tomorrow. I’m too old to play games with
you youngsters.
“Don’t worry, Uncle Tucker. I was immature back then. I thought that what I did was for her sake. Now, I
understand that loving someone is not fettering her wings but respecting her dreams.”
“You wouldn’t have ended up this way if you realized this sooner. But it’s still not too late to make up for
your mistakes. You have a long journey ahead.”

“Now, scram. Let’s not meet each other anymore.”
“Thank you for taking care of us this whole time, Uncle Tucker.” Ethan left and entered the car.
Olivia didn’t know what kind of conversation the men shared. She kept feeling that Ethan had changed a lot
compared to before.
The car was slowly driven out of the basement. After they steered through the darkness, it was bright
ahead of them.
The streets were filled to the brim with people who were excited to welcome the New Year.
“It’s been years since we last welcomed the New Year together,” Ethan suddenly exclaimed.
“Yeah.” Comment by soonyoung gu: whose fault is that
After a race with the death, Olivia felt fortunate to be able to stay alive. She didn’t even notice that it was
almost time to welcome the New Year.
Today’s the last day. Where are you taking me?” She looked at him.
You’ll find out when we arrive.”
The car was slowly driven out of the city, heading toward the suburbs. The dancing snowflakes adorned
the beautiful scenery with a light touch.
The road was getting steeper. The farther they traveled, the fewer buildings they could see.
In the end, there was only snow and the woods.
Olivia grabbed onto the armrest tightly due to the rough journey.
She didn’t know how long they had traveled.
There was no sign of people at all.
As they explored deeper into the mountain, her phone showed no signal.
Ethan explained, “There’s no signal here.”
She wondered, “Just where are we going? What a mysterious place.”
Soon, brightness shone ahead of them. Although it was surrounded by mountains, the land was spacious,
with an archery range and a drill.
They could hear people shouting their slogans from afar.
As they approached the crowd, Olivia could see a young man in the snow.
He seemed to be ten years old. The kid standing behind him appeared to be five years younger than him.
The boys were wearing the same clothes. They wore boots, so they ran on the snowfield with difficulty.

The kid before him pulled ahead with a huge gap between them. Although the boy was slow, he showed
no intention of stopping.
It broke her heart to watch that as she grabbed Ethan’s wrist. “I-Is that our child?”
“It is. That’s Connor.”
“He’s still a young boy! How could you let him be!” cried Olivia.
It was the child she delivered after suffering for months.
She already cared about Connor so much when she assumed that he was Marina’s kid, let alone after finding out
that he was her own son.
How could she bring herself to let him be?
“Liv, I have to train him so that he can protect himself. Spoiling him will only do him no good. Comment
by soonyoung gu: not ethan if he’s not narcissistic
“Besides, he’s stronger than you think he is. Don’t underestimate him because of his young age. He’s
willing to take this upon himself. Look.”
Connor fell onto the ground due to unsteady steps.
Her heart wrenched when his little face smacked into the snow.
