Olivia told Sam everything that had happened in great detail.
She had always thought that it would be very difficult to say it before. When she had finally said it out loud, she had realized how much of a heartache it was. The boulder on her shoulders was finally relieved.
After finishing her words, she breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her eyes.
"That is what happened. I'm done talking."
He looked at her and asked, "So you're unhappy because of this?"
Hearing this, she was stunned. She raised her head and looked into his pitch- black eyes in astonishment.
"My mother asked you to make the decision, so what's your decision?"
Her lips moved, but she did not reply.
"Are you still considering? Or have you already made up your mind but do not dare to tell me the result?"
"What do you mean?" Olivia bit her lower lip and looked at him. She did not understand what he
truly meant.
"I have said it very clearly. Do you still not understand?" Sam said in an extremely gentle voice. He then reached out to the back of her head and pulled her towards him, "I have told you before that I was willing to take the responsibility and you wanted to have a trial period. Since there is a chance to skip this period directly, I would of course wish to grab the chance."
Wish to grab the chance?
Which meant after listening to this result, he still wanted to be with her?
She leaned on his shoulder, and her heart suddenly softened, "So, do you mean that you don't care about the result of the fortune-telling at all?"
"Why would I care?" He lowered his head to look into her eyes while holding her hand, "The present is equally important as the future. Besides, I get to decide my own fate. Didn't I survive the tragic accident that almost robbed my life? Did you know that if I didn't struggle when the plane crashed, I might have died, but because I struggled, I hurt my face instead of my brain."
Hearing this, Olivia was shocked. This was the first time that Sam took the initiative to talk about his past with her. When she first met him, she was curious about the reason he got a scar on his face. Nevertheless, she did not think it was ugly. Instead, she thought that it made him look more manly.
However, some people would inevitably think that the scar looked scary on him.
"You have never asked about my scar. When I went to your house for the first time, a woman in the elevator was complaining about it, and you were the one who stood up for me."
Speaking of this, she recalled that she indeed stood up for him at that time.
However, at that time, she thought that it was not easy to get him to act as her boyfriend, and the woman wanted to dig up his unpleasant memories.
Olivia couldn't stand this kind of behavior.
Therefore, she subconsciously stood up for him, but she didn't expect him to bring up this matter again.
"Don't tell me that you are moved by what I did back then?"
Sam smiled faintly and answered her question in a low voice, "Indeed, I was a little touched. After all, we were just acting at that time. Who would have thought that we could come to this point? But you were already willing to stand up for me
then."
Olivia was just standing up for him without any intentions, but she didn't expect him to remember it for such a long time.
"If I was to accept my fate at that time, you wouldn't have been able to see me after that." He held her hand tightly and clasped it with his fingers, "Do you understand why I am telling you this?"
She didn't answer, but how could she not know what he meant?
