Pointing at the people in the drawing, Alicia explained, "Mommy, Uncle Logan, Zack, me.A family."
Olivia pursed her lips.
She opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to explain it to Alicia.
This was a problem a child from a single-parent family would experience.
No mother would be able to solve this problem, and Olivia was no exception.
After hesitating for a long while, Olivia explained, "Allie, Uncle Logan is Uncle Logan.Only Mommy and you are a
real family.Uncle Logan is just here to protect us, just like your godfather.
"He can only be with you for some time.Once we arrive at our destination, Uncle Logan will have to leave."
Alicia had always been a well-behaved child.
But when she heard Olivia's explanation, she began to make a fuss.
"No! No leaving! I like Uncle Logan."
"Yes, I know you like him, but Allie, you'll meet many more people in the future.Not everyone can be with us until
the end.Uncle Logan has his job and things to do too.
"He can't stay by your side forever, right?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLarge tears hung from Alicia's long eyelashes.
Olivia's heart ached when she saw that.
"But ..."
Alicia didn't know how to describe it.
She just didn't want Ethan to leave.
Olivia pulled Alicia into her embrace.
Then, she comforted Alicia in a gentle voice, "Other than your parents, no one can stay with you forever, alright?
"Uncle Logan will have his own baby in the future, and he has to take care of them too.He has his own life to live.I
promise you that when you miss him, you'll still have a chance to see him, alright?"
Alicia sniffled, looking up at Olivia.
"What about Daddy?"
Olivia was at a loss for words.
Alicia repeated her question, "Where's my daddy?"
"He ..."
Olivia closed her eyes as the image of Ethan's face appeared in her mind.
If he knew that the children were still alive, he would be elated.
But there was a deep grudge between them.
Even if she set their grudges aside, there was still Marina, Connor, and Erina standing between them.If Alicia knew
that her father had another family, the father figure she anticipated would be immediately ruined.
She decided to leave a positive impression on Alicia.
Olivia said, "He died."
"He died?"
As soon as the lie was spoken, she could no longer turn back.
Olivia continued, "He had an incurable disease.Nothing in this world could save him.In the end, the doctors failed to
save him, and he left this world forever."
"Boo-hoo, Daddy ..."
Olivia gently patted Alicia's back.
"Don't cry.Your father loved you a lot, but sadly, he didn't get to see you."
In the past, Jeff kept telling Olivia that Chloe left because she had a better choice, not because she didn't love Olivia.
He told her that Chloe loved her more than anyone in this world.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat was how Olivia could grow healthily and cheerfully.
Jeff had held up an umbrella for her, so now, it was her turn to shield her children from the storm.
She planted a soft kiss on Alicia's cheek.
"Daddy loved you, and I love you very much as well.You're a blessing to me.I'm truly very happy to have you."
"Mommy ..."
Alicia threw herself into Olivia's arms.
Olivia sighed with a guilty look in her eyes.
She thought, "I'm sorry, Allie.I brought you into this world, but I couldn't give you complete love."
A helpless feeling spread from the depths of her heart.
If she didn't have money, she could earn more.
If she got sick, she could get a doctor.
But feelings and relationships were impossible to recover.
She and Ethan could never get together again.
The only thing she could do now was to do her best to raise Alicia.
