Chapter 659: 659: Who Bought the Cherries?
Professor Winnie: “Olivia, from a rational perspective, I hope you make the right choice.”
Olivia’s expression was a bit grave, her inner emotions still unresolved, “Professor Winnie, I have something else to attend to, I’ll leave first. I’ll call you once I have made up my mind.”
Professor Winnie: “Alright, take care and calm down.”
…
Upon returning to the crew, Valerie Howard immediately brought over a plate of cherries, “Olivia, these cherries are so big and sweet. Try some.”
Being upset, eating something to alleviate her mood wasn’t a bad idea. Olivia took the fruit plate from Valerie and started eating one by one, “Valerie, who bought these cherries? They seem to be imported, the priciest kind.”
Miss Winter suddenly interjected: “Are they sweet? Do you like them?”
Olivia nodded, her eyes twinkling a few times. Suddenly, the dull look in her eyes seemed infused with light, “When I’m writing a script, I can eat a pound of these. I also like strawberries and blueberries. Cherries like these, imported and so fresh, probably are hard to reserve in advance.”
Miss Winter mysteriously stated, “Your husband had them delivered. There are more than a dozen boxes over there. They have all the fruits that you like. These fresh cherries probably arrived by a special air-freight.”
In a split second, the smile on Olivia’s face faded a bit, but she continued eating the cherries.
Unintentionally, Olivia’s mind began to recall the times they spent honeymooning abroad.
Undeniably, she and Daniel Marshall had disagreements, and little hiccups, but they also had happiness and were moved by each other.
During New Year’s Eve, she waited with Daniel in the hospital. Even though it wasn’t a well-prepared dinner, they were together. On the first day of the New Year, they received good news together.
In truth, they had their share of luck. Life wasn’t always a total mess.
Miss Winter’s eyes, unblinkingly, stared at Olivia, “Compared to my husband, Chief Daniel Marshall is more considerate. I can tell he cares a lot about you. The day of the opening ceremony, he genuinely supported our team, and thanks to him, our crew received unprecedented popularity.
It’s not that my husband isn’t good, but when he upsets me, I just focus on his faults. After calming down, we reconcile and act like we can’t live without each other.
If days pass by like this, it would feel like a cycle, with ups and downs. Life will inevitably have disappointments. The key is to know what you want and what the other person is willing to do.
When you’re with someone as important as your husband, your life won’t be ordinary. No matter where he stands, he’ll make you feel like you’re the star of the show.
Being with him could be hard for you because he has reached a height that many haven’t. He has more to consider. In contrast, you are simpler and more pure.”
“Miss Winter, did anyone tell you anything?” Olivia asked, her sharp eyes meeting Miss Winter’s inquiring gaze.
Miss Winter shrugged indifferently, “Absolutely not, just guessing! On the day of the opening ceremony, you two quarreled in the nanny car, right? When Chief Daniel left the car, I saw how downtrodden his face looked, it was heartbreaking.
For three consecutive days, you tossed the flowers he sent to the other side of the car without even a second glance. It’s a classic cold war. I’ve been there, I see it clearly.”
