Chapter 293

Olivia stopped crying. She looked at Colin with misty eyes.

She could see her silhouette in his eyes.

There was no smidgen of boyish innocence on his handsome face. He seemed like a mature man.

Now, was there anything else that was holding her back from leaving?

Colin managed to get Jeff out of there. As long as she stayed alive, she could return at any time for

revenge.

Ethan’s face crossed her mind, and she shook her head to get it off her mind. “No. But I would like to

see my father before we leave. Is that alright?”

“Okay. I’ll make an arrangement for it,” Colin agreed to her request.

Olivia continued tending to his wound. Layer upon layer, she wrapped the bandage around his built

body.

She was surprised to discover how many scars were on his body. “Colin, why do you have so many

scars?”

He chuckled lightly. “Olivia, I don’t think I’ve ever told you about my family. Do you wanna hear my

story?”

“I’m all ears.” She fetched another basin of warm water.

Gently, she wiped the bloodstain off his body.

“My mother passed away when I was young. But I never once said that my father was the cause of her

death.

“He’s an abuser. A dangerous one.”

Her hands, which were twisting the wet cloth, halted. She looked sideways at Colin.

He appeared rather mature under the sheen of yellowish light. His body was built, unlike when he was

still a boy.

Slightly raising his chin, he chuckled.

His voice was hoarse. “My father’s life is all about money and alcohol. Whenever something bad

happened to his business, he would always get home drunk and hit my mother.

“Most of my scars were left by him. My mother had always tolerated it for my sake.

“That was how it was until that snowy day when my father lost an amount of money in the stock market.

“He placed the iron on my skin. Olivia, have you heard the sound of hot iron searing the skin before?

It’s the same as grilling

meat.

“My mother wanted to block it, but she managed to block half of it. Half of the iron burned her skin, and

the other half burned my back.

“That was the first time she fought back. And she was pushed down the stairs by my father in the midst

of the fight.”

Olivia looked at the mark on his waist. She couldn’t imagine how painful it was.

Colin continued, “When I was taken away for a witness statement record, I told the police that she fell

down the stairs. I did as my father told me.”

He suddenly looked back at her. “I was a very bad kid, wasn’t I? I lied. I let that scumbag off the book.”

Tears trickled down his cheeks. “Because I don’t wanna lose my father after losing my mother.”

The cloth fell into the basin of water. She hugged him. “Colin…”

He continued, “I left the country when I was young in order to avoid him. You’re the only person in my

life who cares if I’ve taken my meals.

“You took me home to celebrate New Year’s. Olivia, you’re the angel that saved me.”

Chapter 293

Olivia recalled his reticent younger self. They exchanged contact numbers before he left the country

During the first few years, she kept in touch with him.

But how did they end up losing contact?

Only then did Olivia remember that it happened after she dated Ethan. He didn’t like how she was

close with other men.

However, she didn’t know that Colin had such painful experiences before.

“Don’t be afraid, Colin. It’s already in the past,” she cooed

His hands, which were hanging midair, slowly hugged her waist.

He hummed in response and tightened his embrace. “It is already in the past,”
