Chapter 274


    Marina was facing the camera. It was as if the person was trying to be considerate.


    She adjusted the camera to give the audience a close-up view of Marina and Olivia.


    Everyone could clearly see the state Marina and Olivia were in.


    The diamonds on Marina’s fancy dress reflected the sunlight and created a dazzling glow.


    The ck blindfold on her face was soaked by her tears. The makeup she spent so much time putting


    on was ruined by her


    tears.


    Marina no longer cared about how she looked. She just wanted to live.


    On the other hand, Olivia was theplete opposite.


    It was impossible to tell how she felt since most of her face was covered. Her lips were pursed.


    She didn’t call for help from the beginning. She didn’t even say a word.


    Some people thought she had fainted. Others noticed the sweat on her forehead. They thought it was


    weird that she sweated but didn’t cry.


    Olivia didn’t have any makeup on, but herplexion was ashen. Even her lips were unnaturally pale.


    “Isn’t the ex-wife too calm? It’s a matter of life and death. Why isn’t she panicking at all?”


    “Is she not scared of death?”


    “Marina is calling for help because she knows there’s a chance she will live.


    “Olivia probably kept her lips sealed because she knew she would be sacrificed. If the oue was the


    same either way, it would be pointless for her to call for help.”


    The on-lookers began to formte all sorts of theories. Some felt sad for this ex-wife who had never


    shown herself in public. Olivia broke her silence as the crowd was still guessing. “Mom, I also want to


    know who you’d pick between the two of us.’ She didn’t address Chloe as Mrs. Carlton this time. She


    called her “mom”.


    Olivia said calmly, “I don’t me you for neglecting me since I was young. I don’t me you for leaving


    so abruptly. “Because Dad said that you weren’t happy when you were with him. You didn’t leave us


    behind. You just went to pursue your own happiness.


    s bastard.


    “You cut ties with Dad and were gone for years. I had been pushed to the ground. People called me a


    moth “None of that matters. I don’t me you. I just want to know one thing. Did you also forsake our


    bond?” Olivia smiled faintly and continued, “I’m not afraid of dying. But I want to know if the mother I


    waited for more than ten years ever cared about me. Even if it’s just this once.”


    Everyone’s gaze fell on Chloe.


    Marina was still shouting. “Mom, you said you would protect me! You said you would treat me like I was


    your own even if we aren’t blood-rted.”


    Olivia didn’t care about what would happen to her. Her cancer was getting worse. She didn’t know how


    much longer she had to


    live.


    All she wanted was to see her mother once again before she died, her mother, who would love her.


    Olivia was like a child abandoned in the snow. She had been battered by the wind and snow. She was


    on her dying breath.


    She held on to life because she was waiting for her mother toe get her.


    She wanted to prove to the bullies that she wasn’t a motherless bastard.


    She wanted to prove to the world that she also had a mother. And that her mother was the most gentle


    woman who loved her the most.


    “Mom, you’ll pick me, right?” Olivia said as tears welled up in her eyes.Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
