Chapter 325
Back then, Chloe thought that Olivia was just rambling nonsense. But it turned out that Olivia had enrolled in a medical school
for real.
Chloe didn’t think much about it. She only thought that it was just schild’s ranting.
It was like how children talked about becoming teachers, astronauts, and firefighters.
Now, when Chloe recalled Olivia’s earnest little face, her heart ached as if it had been pierced.
Lying on the bed, Chloe couldn’t help but recall the many memories she had tossed away.
She had this child by accident. From her pregnancy until childbirth, she never had any expectations of this child.

After Chloe had given birth, Jeff feared that it would disturb her rest, so he sent Olivia to a childcare center.
Olivia had never drunk a drop of Chloe’s breast milk. She was raised on baby formula.
Fortunately, Olivia had been a healthy child. She rarely got sick when she was young.
But Chloe kept having illnesses big and small because of her depression. Her thoughts were completely occupied by her old lover.
She never bothered to remember when Olivia began teething. She didn’t even remember when Olivia started calling her “Mom
Even when Olivia learned to walk, Chloe’s first reaction wasn’t to pick Olivia up the moment she tottered up to her leg. Instead, she pushed the child away.
She treated the child coldly and cruelly, but Olivia kept sticking to her since young.
“Mom, I want to eat the teddy cookies you make.”
“Mom, I’ll cook for you when I grow up.”
“Mom, our school is holding a family sports day. Are you coming?”
“Mom, don’t be sad. You’ll recover soon. When I’ve grown up and beca doctor, you won’t be sick anym
“Mom, have swater. The doctor said that drinking warm water will help you recover faster. Here, drink it. I’ll pour smore when you’re done.”
“Mom, I love you so much, but why won’t you love me?”
“Oh, I know! My love must not be strong enough, so that’s why you don’t like me. I’ll becan outstanding person so that you’ll be proud ofevery day.”
“Mom, you promised to bringto the amusement park. Don’t leave me…”
Olivia’s tears rolled uncontrollably down her cheeks. She even remembered the warmth of the tiny hand placed on her forehead and the worried eyes looking at her.
Wiping her tears, Chloe removed the blanket and got off the bed.

With a crash, she fell to the floor along with the glass.
The sudden noise startled Marina. Marins frowned as she looked at Chloe.
“What are you doing this time? I’m warning you, I’m not a fool like Dad. I won’t believe women like you. Hurry and get up. 1 won’t be fooled by people playing the victim.”
Chloe spent more than ten years treating Marina with sincerity and love. But Marina repaid her with insults instead.

Chloe opened her mouth to explain. “I’m not pretending. I don’t have the strength. Helpup, please ”
“You don’t have strength? Hah, you looked quite lively when you seduced my dad back then.”
Marina watched her phone screen turn black. Then, she tossed her phone away and stood up.
Crossing her arms, she looked coldly at Chloe. “There are no outsiders here, so why are you pretending?
“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. You’re a whore, so it’s no wonder that your daughter is a wench too.”
Chloe had stopped sobbing earlier, but now, the tears began falling again. As if her insults weren’t enough, Marina even kicked Chloe.
“Who are you crying for? Just get up already.”
