“Yeah.”John took the opportunity to sit right across from Olivia. His eyes were like pools as he looked at her and said, “Cook me a bowl of that too.”Olivia was stunned and caught by surprise.John was being unexpectedly nice. That could only mean…Olivia looked down at her own bowl of noodles and pushed it toward John. “If you don’t mind, take this, then. I haven’t touched it yet.”“I don’t mind.”He slurped up a mouthful of noodles and swallowed slowly. He looked at Olivia and said, “It’s still the same familiar taste. I like it.”That made her more uneasy.What was he trying to do?She immediately looked at Ian and could not help but be curious. Was John putting on a show for him?Once that thought was born, Olivia stuck with it. She felt a little suffocated.However, she did not want to expose John, so she turned back to go to the kitchen to whip up another bowl of noodles. This was the first time in two years she had gotten to eat a meal with her brother, and she did

Both Olivia and Ken were not expecting that, so they both froze on the spot.Olivia was the first to snap back to her senses. She grabbed Zyla’s hand, checked her wounds, and said, “Zy, you’re still not completely recovered yet. How could you do something so taxing?”“I’m okay, Sis Liv.” Zyla’s voice softened. “How about you? Did Jerk John hurt you?!”She shook her head. “I’ll tell you more after we get back to the ward. Let me look at your hand first.”“I’m fine, really. He merely dislocated my arm, so all I need to do now is get a doctor to pop it back into place for me. That’s all.”Zyla shook her hands and laughed. “Look! I’m fine!”“What about your chest? I saw blood just now in the afternoon.”Olivia was worried, so she pulled Zyla into her ward and said, “Let me take a look.”“I just busted the wound open, but I’ve gotten the nurse to give me a new dressing. You won’t be able to see anything,”Then, Zyla’s eyes fell on Ken. “What are you still doing here? Do you want a

“Why are you here?”Olivia was stunned for a moment before pushing John away. “Let go of me.”John freed her, walked towards the bar area, and asked, “Anything I can do to help?”Then, he took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and started taking out the vegetables from the bag.“I’ll clean the prawns. What else needs cleaning?”The scene that was playing out before Olivia shocked her to the core.She had seen this side of John before, but it had been two years since then.Back then, they would cook together.He would hug her from behind, rest his head on her shoulders, and flirt with her in whispers, making her lose focus as she cooked.Now, it felt like it had been a lifetime since that. The thought left her dazed. They had already gone their separate ways, so why was he playing the same role he used to play in the past once more?Was he trying to move her heart again?No, she could not be fooled! She could not be tricked once more!Olivia bit her lips, tried to suppr

The meal was exceptionally quiet and peaceful, which made Olivia feel like she was dreaming. After dinner, Ian went back upstairs.Olivia frowned when she saw him closing the door. She did not get the chance to talk to him.John stole a glance at her and started to clear the dishes. “I’ll clean up.”Olivia was slightly shocked but she did not object to it. She went upstairs.She knocked on the door. “Ian, can I come in?”“Wait a minute.”A few minutes later, he opened the door. “What is it?”Olivia looked inside and chuckled. “Can I come in and have a seat?”He hesitated for a bit but finally nodded.After entering, she looked around. Her brother's room used to be decorated in a cartoon style, but now, it was very simple and sleek with only black, white, and gray tones.“What do you want to talk about? Are you trying to frame Dolly again?”Olivia felt a piercing pain in her heart, and she frowned as she spoke. “Ian, I know you’ve gotten very close to Dorothy over these t

John did not say anything else, and the two kept quiet throughout the entire journey.Upon reaching the hospital, before she got out of the car, she asked, “John, will you bring me to visit Ian tomorrow?”“Depends.”‘Depends… Does that mean he won’t let me see Ian again?’She did not ask further. After all, she would still have a chance as long as it was not tomorrow yet.“Alright.”After getting out of the car, she touched the picture in her pocket and let out a sigh of relief.‘Luckily he didn’t find out.’If John found out about the picture, he would probably accuse her of some trumped-up charges, so it was best for him to not know....The next day, Olivia finished her lunch earlier than usual and stood by the window looking downstairs.She stared for several hours but still did not see John.She clenched her fists and could not help but feel anxious.‘Is it because we fought yesterday that he’s not letting me see Ian?‘But he said sorry to me.’She bit her lips and
