Olivia's thoughts drifted far away.

Her mother left her at a young age and she grew up in a single-parent family.

Her father had been nothing but good to her. He gave her the best life and education he could. He taught her how

to be generous, kind, and cheerful.

But there were a lot of things that Jeff couldn't make up for, like the family sports days at school. There were a lot

of activities that required both parents to complete together.

Ever since Olivia was young, she has been envious of other people who had their mothers to hold their hands, cook

them meals, and pick out their clothes.

She always envied other people who had their mothers, no matter how outstanding she already was.

Olivia swore she would take good care of her children when she had them. She would give them all the love she

could and never let them grow up in a single-parent family.

Then, she fell in love with Ethan at first sight.

Initially, the feeling was mutual. Olivia felt like he was a man she could spend the rest of her life with. That's why

she married him at such a young age.

But in the end, she couldn't keep her word. She couldn't give her children a complete family.

"Mom!" Alicia saw Olivia and waved at her excitedly.

"Come and have breakfast, dear," Olivia said.

Ethan gazed at Olivia.

She didn't have her long hair anymore, but she had the gentle expression on her face that she used to have when

she saw him off.

He had yearned for that smile for a long time.

"I'm still weak, so I can't make complicated dishes. I just made some simple food. But I'll cook better food for you

when I get better," Olivia said.

Alicia smiled at her. "Thanks, Mom."

Alicia wasn't a picky eater. She would be happy no matter what Olivia made for her.

Olivia picked up a plate of food and handed it to Ethan. "This is for you. Thank you for entertaining her."

Ethan was surprised. He didn't expect Olivia to prepare his share too.

He scratched his head and said shyly, "It's nothing. I was just doing my job. Thanks, Ms. Fordham."

Ethan hadn't eaten Olivia's cooking for a long time, so he took his time to savor every bite.

He thought about the time when they were newly married. Olivia would get up early to prepare the clothes he

needed for the day. Then, she would go to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

She would also adjust his tie and tell him to come home early with a smile.

If he had known those days wouldn't last, he would have cherished every moment with her. Maybe then things

wouldn't have ended up like this.

He could only stay by her side, cautiously pretending to be another person. He couldn't even tell his child who he

was.

"What's wrong? Is the sandwich not to your liking?" Olivia asked when she saw his serious expression.

Ethan's eyes were slightly reddened.

Olivia knew Logan to be a tough guy. Was her food poisoned?

"No, no. Your cooking is great, Ms. Fordham. It just reminded me of the food a person very important to me used to

make. She used to cook for me every day, but I didn't cherish that."

Olivia thought about his past and said compassionately, "I understand that feeling."

Did Olivia see through him? Ethan began to scoff the food down.

Then, Olivia sighed and said, "You must be missing your mother, right?"

Ethan didn't know what to say.

Olivia patted him on the shoulder. "It's fine. You don't have to hold back next time. Just eat with us.

Alicia likes you. I'm also thankful to you. If my food reminds you of your home, you can treat it like your mother's

cooking."

Ethan was rendered speechless.
