He Clings to Me Every Night

Chapter 839: Chapter 839: The Secret Discovered

Abigail Anderson pursed her lips but still looked at Olivia Jenkins with an inquiring gaze, “You don’t like children? Is it because Daniel Marshall hurt you deeply? I know sometimes a woman’s heart turns cold out of necessity.”

Olivia Jenkins handed the prepared beef to Abigail Anderson and Valerie Howard, “Let’s not talk about him. I believe I can live a wonderful life on my own. If two people are not happy together, then there’s no point in forcing it, otherwise it only causes suffering. Why put yourself through that?”

Valerie Howard nodded, “Olivia, I trust you have your own reasons. If you hadn’t been completely disappointed, I believe you wouldn’t have made such a resolute decision. If two people really aren’t happy together, it’s better to part ways.”

Olivia Jenkins looked at Valerie Howard with gratitude, “Thank you for understanding. Some things are just indescribable. Love isn’t something that can be spoken into existence. At least, I don’t feel bad about my decision. I’m simply making a choice proactively, not committing an unforgivable sin.”

Abigail Anderson explained softly, “Olivia, I really didn’t mean to blame you. I just empathized with the baby spontaneously.”

Olivia Jenkins handed a few shrimp balls to Abigail Anderson and comforted her, “I understand you, and I know you’re worried about me. But some things aren’t as simple as they seem on the surface. We can never fully know what’s in another’s heart. Let’s enjoy our meal and forget those unhappy thoughts.”

...

Abigail Anderson nodded slightly, her mood somewhat soothed.

Two weeks later @@novelbin@@

Olivia Jenkins had just left the supermarket when, unexpectedly, a child running by accidentally bumped into her.

In an instant, the grocery bags in Olivia Jenkins’s hands fell, and several oranges immediately rolled away.

Seeing this, the child’s mother was too busy apologizing and chasing after her child to help Olivia Jenkins pick up the scattered oranges.

Hearing the apology, Olivia Jenkins did not blame the mother and son, and since they had moved a bit far away, she had to bend down herself to pick up the oranges on the ground.

Because she was pregnant, Olivia Jenkins felt a bit uncomfortable bending down, so she straightened up again, supporting her waist.

In a flash, Benjamin Johnson walked over quickly, helped Olivia Jenkins pick up the oranges, and carried her grocery bags for her.

With a slight raise of her eyebrows, Olivia Jenkins’s lovely face was suffused with a sweet smile, “What a coincidence, Benjamin Johnson, thank you!”

“You’re welcome. Let me carry that for you, I’m heading to the parking lot too,” Benjamin Davis’s sharp eyes didn’t even blink as they studied Olivia Jenkins with a thought-provoking gaze.

Olivia Jenkins’s almond eyes also held a hint of amusement as she walked alongside Benjamin Johnson.

Benjamin Johnson’s keen eyes patiently scanned the way ahead, occasionally carefully shielding Olivia Jenkins from hurried pedestrians who were only looking at their phones.

Olivia Jenkins cast a casual glance at Benjamin Johnson, sensing a premonition.

Suddenly, Benjamin Johnson said, “You’ve probably figured it out, Olivia Jenkins, what are you planning to do? Can you hide it from him for a lifetime?”

“Are you going to tell him?” Olivia Jenkins said seriously, her almond eyes locking on Benjamin Johnson unwaveringly.

Without hesitation, Benjamin Johnson replied, “No, I figured it out a long time ago. Before, you didn’t like to eat snacks, but in the past month or so, you’ve been eating plum candies, beef jerky, candied fruit, nuts, and so on. Anyone who observes carefully, anyone who knows you well enough, would notice your changes. It’s Daniel Marshall’s own fault he doesn’t know.”

Olivia Jenkins’s eyes were complex, and her mood suddenly grew heavy, “I didn’t expect you to observe so carefully. It seems I’ve already given myself away.”

Benjamin Johnson said with all seriousness, his handsome features conveying sincerity, “Olivia Jenkins, I can help you.”
