Chapter 256
Colin didn’t look like he noticed the disappointment in Olivia’s eyes. He reached out to her. “I was passing by when I
spotted you, Olivia. Did you get lost, or did you sprain your ankle?”
Declining his offer to help, Olivia got up on her own. Then, she smiled helplessly. “I was just thinking about something. I
stopped here without realizing it.”
“My house is nearby. If you don’t mind, Olivia, you can go visit Snowball. Snowball misses you.”
Because of this reason, Olivia couldn’t bring herself to decline.
The warm interior of the car formed a stark contrast to the cold outside. Colin passed to Olivia an untouched cup of
coffee.
“I was thinking of drinking it when I got home. Here, it’ll warm you up.”.
Olivia looked down. It was spiced coffee.
“Thank you.”
“No need for thanks.” Smiling, Colin turned the steering wheel with one hand.
Olivia felt that something was off. She had the feeling that the spiced coffee was bought specially for her, and he didn’t
run into her by accident.
But the youth’s expression was honest. He didn’t look like he was planning anything.

“Why are you looking at me like that, Olivia?”
Holding the warm spiced coffee, Olivia took a sip. “I was just thinking that time flies. The kid from back
then is all grown up now.”
The innocence and baby fat was gone from his face. His firm jawline had a smooth contour that
revealed a hint of sharpness. It was completely smooth-shaven, though.
As he turned the steering wheel, the watch on his wrist glittered.
It was a weird feeling.

He pulled up by the road, smiling. “Wait for me, Olivia.”
With that, he dashed into the heavy rain. Ten minutes later, he came back with shopping bags.
There were fresh fruits and also a change of women’s clothing.

Stuffing the bags into Olivia’s arms, he explained smilingly, “Olivia, I noticed that the hem of your skirt
was wet just now. I bought some clothes, but I eyeballed the size.
“If they’re the wrong size, you’ll have to put up with them.
“Also, here are some freshly cut fruits. You can eat some in case you feel hungry.”
Olivia was stunned as she looked at the youth’s drenched body. The young man’s expression froze.
“Do you not like them, Olivia?”
She held the bags, shaking her head. “That’s not it. It’s been a while since the last time someone was
this nice to me.” Colin was stunned for an instant. Then, he smiled. “It’s okay. Now that I’m back, I’ll
treat you well in the future, Olivia.” The car came to a stop. It was only then that she noticed something.

Colin opened the gates of his house. The small yard was quite minimalistic.

White stones formed a simple path in the yard while water flowed gently in the fountain. There were a
few cherry trees in the yard, and their petals were scattered all over the ground.
Before Olivia could admire the scenery, she heard a familiar meow.

There was a small cut on the white cat’s ears. A mouse had bitten her when she was young. Olivia patted Snowball’s
fluffy head as both sorrow and joy filled her heart.
“I’m so sorry for losing you.”
Snowball rubbed against her cheek with a meow.
Olivia recalled the time she had spent with Snowball. Snowball was an old cat that had lived for more than a decade.
She had stayed with Olivia for almost two-thirds of her life.
They used to be inseparable. Because she had gotten married, she drifted away from Snowball. Now, Olivia rarely got to
see the
cat.
Stepping forward, Colin held an umbrella over Olivia’s head. “Olivia, let’s get out of the rain. Snowball won’t be leaving,
so you have all the time in the world to play with her.”
Olivia thought, “All the time in the world?”
She smiled self-mockingly.
The surgery couldn’t cure her completely. Also, she had seen the clinical evidence. Many people experienced their
cancer cells spreading even faster after the surgery.
She had no idea whether death or tomorrow would come first.
To her, every day was her last day in this world.
She smiled gently. “Alright. I’ll go in, then.”
