Chapter 810: 810: Don't Want Children
He Clings to Me Every Night
Olivia Jenkins was moved, but warmth couldnât thaw her already frozen heart.
Her slightly curled long eyelashes quivered gently as Olivia Jenkins said calmly, âBenjamin Johnson, you are really kind, and Iâm truly grateful to you. Thereâs no need for you to do so many thoughtful things for me. Iâm sorry, but I may not be able to repay you with the same sentiment.â
âOlivia, donât worry about it, and donât feel burdened. It was you who led me out and helped me find my true self. Because of you, I got a new lease on life, a different view of the world, and understanding.
As my guide, I should thank you with the same warmth, encourage you, and even guide you. A doctor canât operate on themselves, but colleagues can. I hope youâll be kinder to yourself and say no to unpleasant things.â
Olivia bit her lip, and a layer of tears unexpectedly gathered in her eyes.
Taking a deep breath, Olivia lifted her head, blinked her eyes, and tried hard to disperse the mist of tears.
She felt so stifled inside, not knowing what to say. In the current situation, there was probably no one who could help her.@@novelbin@@
No amount of comfort could warm her wounded heart.
There was silence on the phone for a while. Benjamin understood Olivia well and gradually confirmed his suspicion that Olivia must have experienced some unspeakable events. Thatâs why, he thought, she must be unhappy now.
Benjamin began to speak slowly, his voice very gentle, âOlivia, I can come to be with you now. Just tell me where you are.â
âThank you! But I still want some peace and quiet. Iâm okay, Iâm not without options, and I havenât reached a dead end. These last few days, Iâve thought things through very clearly. The plan in my heart is getting clearer, and I know what Iâm doing. I wonât mess up.â
ââ¦â
âI managed to get through such difficult paths before, and I believe I can do so now too.â
Benjamin clenched his teeth and tentatively asked, âAre you and Daniel Marshall having relationship problems? Did he betray you?â
Oliviaâs calm voice came faintly, âWe have some differences in beliefs. He didnât understand me, and I didnât understand him. Maybe neither of us is clear about what the other wants. In that way, we are quite similar; we both demand too much of ourselves.â
âItâs indeed not easy for you to face the Marshall Familyâs issues on your own. Where there are interests, there is conflict. It has always been so. Donât worry too much, try to relax.â
A faint smile formed on Oliviaâs lips, âI think Iâm also lucky to have good friends. Benjamin Johnson, I wonât keep you. I have things to do.â
âAlright, call me when you have time.â Even though he was reluctant to hang up, Benjamin reluctantly put down the phone. Olivia had already hung up first.
Olivia being so unhappy must mean she truly loves Daniel Marshall. Thatâs why sheâs confused and in such pain.
With this thought, Benjaminâs heart twisted painfully, leaving a bitter taste.
After hesitating for a moment, Benjamin made a call to find out Oliviaâs whereabouts.
Even if Olivia didnât love him, he hoped to accompany her through dark times like a friend.
Even if Olivia said she didnât need it, Benjamin believed she was particularly vulnerable at this moment, and he couldnât let her face it alone.
â¦
Without getting a response from Olivia and unable to contact her for many days, Daniel had someone look into Oliviaâs whereabouts.
He could not let Olivia leave him; he absolutely disagreed with divorce.
After thinking things through and being far enough along in her pregnancy, Olivia went to the private hospital in Cross City for a checkup.
When the ultrasound results came out, she requested a medical abortion.
