StarNovelChapter 547
With that said, Olivia turned into the living room, took an envelope from her bag, walked out onto the
balcony, and handed it to Fred.
“I’ve booked your flights for tomorrow. Now, go pack and leave tomorrow morning.”
Fred looked at her in disbelief. “Liv, what are you doing? Are you forcing me to leave?”
When he refused to take it, Olivia grabbed his hand and forced the envelope into his hand.
“Fred, this is an order, not a discussion.”
“Liv!”
Fred lost his temper for the first time. With scarlet eyes, he clenched the envelope, wanting to tear it
apart.
“I’m not trying to force you to leave. I need to keep Lyla safe. The further away she is from me, the
safer she will be.”

could not help turning red.
“Do you think I’m willing to part with her? But I’m afraid. I don’t want to lose you again.
“I can lose the atelier, but I don’t want to lose you. Got it?”
With that said, she trembled and said through clenched teeth, “Fred, when Zyla died in my arms. four
years ago, I swore I would never let anyone near me get hurt again.
“However… Jess died in prison because of my incompetence.”
Olivia gasped for breath, her chest feeling like it was going to explode.
Worried, Fred reached up to help Olivia, only to have her push him away.
“Fred, I can’t afford to lose you again. I have the power to send you away now. I can’t let what
happened four years ago happen again.”
With that said, she turned around and headed inside.
“Liv, can you…”
Before he could finish, Olivia glanced coldly at him over her shoulder and said, “I’W tie you up if you
refuse to leave!”
That statement made Fred swallow his words.
How could he not know why Olivia did it?
However… How could he leave her like that?
They took care of each other and depended on each other for four years.
He thought of her as a sister and did not want anything to happen to her. However, who was going to
protect her if even he was gone?
Olivia went to the bathroom to wash her face before returning to the living room and sitting next to Lyla.
“Lyla, I have something to tell you. Listen carefully.”
Lyla put down the blocks and hugged her hand tightly. “Mommy, are you going to give me up?”
Olivia stiffened, rubbed her hair, and forced a smile. “No way. Why would I give you up, Lyla?”
She held Lyla in her arms and whispered, “Lyla, you’re my baby and the last person I want to lose. You

“Why are you leaving Lyla then?”
Who said kids knew nothing?
Children were sensitive. They could notice the slightest difference in adults.
Lyla lay in her arms. Her soft voice had a hint of grievance. “Mommy, you haven’t been looking
well lately. I also kept hearing you asking Uncle Fred to take me away”
With that said, Lyla raised her little head and looked at her with her bright eyes. “Mommy, did I make
you angry?”
When Olivia heard this, she could not hold it any longer and burst into tears.
“Lyla, you’ve been good. You’re not the problem. I am.”
Olivia snuffled. “I’m changing jobs, so I’m leaving to live in a different country. It’s just that you and
Uncle Fred are going there first. I will meet up with you later.”
Lyla reached out her little hand and wiped her tears. “Mommy, why are you crying?”
“I…” Olivia bit her lip. “I don’t want to part with you, Lyla.”
She did not know whether and when she could meet her again after separating this time.
