Ethan seemed to have guessed that she would be coming over, so he stood under the streetlights. That way, she would be able to spot the white snow on his figure right away.
If her heart ached for him, she would come downstairs.
Olivia was in her bathrobe, holding the gift he had sent her as she looked down at him.
Right after that, she lowered her head and typed something on her phone. Then, she raised her phone and waved it, gesturing for Ethan to check his phone.
Ethan lowered his gaze, thinking that Olivia did indeed care about him.
But when he unlocked his phone, the smile froze on his face.
"Thanks for the gift. The roads might be slippery in this weather, so take care on your way home."
Seeing that Ethan had checked his phone, Olivia turned around and went back to her room. She even drew the curtains, firmly blocking her figure from view.
In his exasperation, Ethan smiled bitterly. He remembered when she was still in school and she came out in her pajamas despite the snow, she had thrown herself into his arms.
They could never return to those days.
His Liv had changed. He was no longer her priority.
Of course, Olivia was aware of his thoughts. He was just trying to make himself look a little pitiful.
She arranged the bunnies neatly on the bedside table. She had accepted the gift, but she didn't forgive him.
Their current relationship was probably the best for both of them.
Olivia slept soundly through the night. When she woke up and drew the curtains, she saw the maids shoveling the snow in the yard. It had snowed heavily overnight.
As Olivia opened the door, the cold air rushed up to her face.
"Ms. Olivia." The maids along the way smiled as they greeted her.
Many of them were holding string lights in their hands. New Year's was just around the corner, so it was about time they set up the atmosphere.
