Olivia tied the belt into a knot with quick movements. "Done."
Then, she pulled it to lead him to the animal's skin so that he could lie down.
"Rest up. You can eat later to replenish."
Judging from how the cave was filled with necessities, he figured that she frequently lived here.
He thought, "Did she recover from her illness here? How did she raise the kid alone all this time?"
There were so many questions in his head, but he didn't dare to rush his plans.
One day, the mystery would be solved.
Not long after he lay down, he heard the sound of a bell ringing.
He held his breath. It was Willow!
Although he didn't know her birthdate yet, he had already seen her as his daughter.
He didn't move, and the sound of the bell got louder and louder. In the end, it stopped right next to him.
Then, she caressed his face.
His heart raced as he thought, "She already knows that I'm her father, right?"
Ethan didn't want to interrupt such a wonderful moment.
Soon, Willow withdrew her hand. It seemed like she had gone to Olivia's side.
"Are you hungry?" Olivia lowered her voice, which was quite similar to her original voice.
Willow made a gesture, eliciting a soft chuckle from Olivia.
Olivia said, "Okay. You prepare the ingredients. I'll teach you how to make candies later."
The sound of the bell ringing disappeared, but Willow sounded happy.
Suddenly, Ethan sensed something getting closer to him. It wasn't a person.
An animal seemed to be sniffing his hand. His heart surged up to his throat as he wondered if it was a beast.
Olivia reassured him, "Relax. It's a baby deer."
"There are deers?"
"Yeah. There's a stream nearby. A lot of little animals would come over for a drink."
"Are there wild beasts around here?"
A scene flashed across her mind. "There was, but not anymore."
