Chapter 4007
She had indeed undergone a transformation from before.
She had grown more mature and gracious, yet she wasn’t the same person he remembered.
His voice carried a hoarse tone as he murmured, “I’ll return within a few days.
”
“Okay,” Olivia responded softly.
She rose to her feet, her slender fingers deftly fastening his shirt buttons.
Meeting his gaze, she uttered, “Dylan, take care of yourself while you’re away.

Later, Olivia stood on the balcony, watching as Dylan entered the car.
Dylan Lowered the car window and glanced up at her.
Olivia gave him a gentle smile.
Dylan would never understand Olivia’s greatest fear-it wasn’t him marrying someone else.
It was the news of his death.
It was only after enduring such pain that she could muster a smile as she watched him leave to meet another woman.
Dylan wasn’t aware that Olivia had gone to the airport when he boarded the plane, and she stayed until the flight took off.
She waited for more than 10 hours without sleeping, just to hear from him that he had landed safely.
Upon landing, Dylan’s first message was a reassurance of his well-being to Olivia.
“I’ve arrived.
Safe and sound!”
Olivia looked at the message on her screen, her fingers lingering on the screen for a while.
Leyla approached, stumbling a little, and embraced Olivia, inquiring about Dylan.
In Leyla’s heart, Dylan held the position of a father.
Patiently, Olivia explained to Leyla that Dylan had gone out and would return in a few days.
Upon his return, he promised to craft a new rocking horse for her.
Leyla’s countenance brightened upon hearing this.
Day after day passed-one, then two, then five…
After the fifth day, Dylan disappeared without a trace.
He’d call occasionally, saying he couldn’t come back for a while.
Olivia didn’t ask why; she just told him to take care of himself.
A month later, Olivia began to sense that he might never return.
It wasn’t about him not returning to Duefron, since he’d eventually come back to town someday.
In fact, it was the realization that he would never come back to her side and would never be able to make that rocking horse for Leyla.
As she glanced at the dog Dylan had left behind, she pondered how to handle the situation.
The Labrador lounged on the ground, her eyes wandering aimlessly.
