“You told me to come back?” Because she was surprised and incredulous, her tone sounded shaky.
“I’m going to London for about a week. By the time I get back, I hope you’ll have returned,”
Olivia was basically already settled in America, because she had stayed and lived there, so she was already used to their living habits, and Nathan felt that going back there would make her happier.
After Nathan had said this, she picked up the car key from the computer desk, then turned her body to go downstairs>
“You sent me back because you’re afraid that if I stay here, I’ll do something to hurt Stella?” Olivia said, crying behind Nathan.
“It’s for you, also for Stella. You need time to calm down, if you stay here the resentment in your heart will get bigger and bigger, sooner or later it will explode. This time I won’t bargain with you, you pack your things and then go back to America. “Nathan looked directly at her.
“But you’re not leaving with me, right? Do you really care about Stella? I only hurt her with words, but her, what did she do to me? Why are you so biased?”
Nathan stood on the floor, his eyes cold.
“Are you finished?”
“Nathan…”
Olivia reached out once more to grab his arm, but he pushed her away. He’d already opened the door, no matter what she did, she couldn’t stop him from leaving.
“Remember, you have a week.”
“Nathan, Nathan…”
Olivia ran after him, but Nathan had already gotten into his car. She patted the car window, but he still drove off.
At that moment, Olivia felt the sky collapse, her whole body went limp and she fell into the snow.
“Why are you like this to me? Why?”
But she didn’t get an answer, because Nathan had already left, only she was there.
Carla received Olivia’s call, she hurriedly packed something, ready to leave. When she left, she noticed that Nathan’s car had arrived.
Nathan didn’t park his car in the garage either. He just stopped in front of the door, took the car key and got out of the car. Looking at Carla’s figure, he frowned and assumed that perhaps Olivia had already called her.
“Nathan, what’s this about you sending Olivia back to America?” Carla rushed over and said bluntly.
“I just asked her to come home, where she’ll be fine.”
“Why would you do something like that?!” Carla immediately frowned and scolded coldly. “For all the things she’s done for you, she just wanted to come back and look for you, but now you’ve let her go have you considered her feelings?”
It’s a problem between me and her. Mom, you seem to care too much.” Nathan responded with an even colder reaction, he launched into a sentence that overwhelmed her and prepared her to enter.

But Carla still wasn’t willing 15 let him go, she now wanted to ask him clearly what had happened? And what did he mean?
“Nathan, you can’t be like that with Olivia.”
“Mom, I’ve noticed that you’re really very kind to Olivia? More than anyone else, could you tell me why?” Nathan narrowed his black eyes and looked at Carla.
Carla looked away.
“…”
“Why have I never seen you care so much about Liam and Stella?”
“What qualification does Stella have for me to care about her?” Hearing Stella’s name made Carla unable to contain herself and she frowned.
“So Liam? He’s your own grandson, I’ve never seen you care about him either. Does he belong in your heart?”
“What kind of nonsense are you talking? How can I not have him in my heart?” She obviously didn’t want to continue the conversation on this subject, so she quickly changed the subject. “Nathan, come on. Let’s find Olivia and talk. A moment ago, she called me, she cried sadly, I’m afraid she’ll do something foolish.”
Nathan spread his hands on his wrist, one by one, and smiled.
“Mom, you should know that I don’t like other people meddling in my business.”
“Nathan, you…”
Nathan didn’t give her a chance to speak and went inside.
However, Carla, worried about Olivia, no longer cared about him and drove her car away from the Collins house.
When Nathan entered, he noticed that Stella came out of the kitchen holding a cup of milk, and when she ran up to him, she smiled
as if she felt no surprise.
He imagined that by the time she came downstairs, she would have heard their conversation.
The living room window was open, his and his mother’s voice during the fight was loud, so she could definitely hear clearly. Still, Stella, this woman, supposedly didn’t pay any attention to it either.
Seeing Nathan standing there silently staring at her, she was startled and passed him the glass of milk in her hand.
“Do you want a drink?”
Nathan pulled her into the dining room,
“Stella, I’m hungry. Will you cook me something to eat?”
Tonight he’d hardly eaten anything before he’d simply left with his assistant, and Stella knew it, so she put the glass on the table.
“You wait a bit.”
She walked into the kitchen, stood in front of the fridge and hesitated for a moment. Because she had no idea what Nathan liked to eat, she just grabbed some eggs, other ingredients and pasta from the fridge.

Chapter 78
As she was cooking, Nathan came in.
“Noodles, do you like them?” she asked, and Nathan isn’t fussy about food.
“Then you go out first and wait a bit for me, it’ll be ready soon. “Stella isn’t usually observed by other people when she’s cooking, it makes her feel strange.
Nathan nodded and left.
Stella’s movement was very fast. In a brief moment, she picked up a plate of steaming noodles and placed it in front of Nathan.
Nathan took the cutlery and started to eat, and Stella looked at how he was eating and sometimes used her hand to massage his temple.
“Are you very tired?” Nathan put down the cutlery and then gestured with his hand to her. “Come here.”
Stella didn’t know what was going on, but she still came to him. He took her hand and placed it on his temple.
“Help me massage it for a while.”
Stella massaged his temple hard enough, it’s just perfect, as if she could undo that feeling of tightness.
At this point, Nathan continued eating, and Stella was standing behind him, massaging his temple. The ceiling chandelier in the dining room was lit and filled with rays of light, which hit their bodies and created a shadow.
Stella looked at their shadow and unexpectedly it seemed warm.
But she felt it must be an illusion.
Between her and Nathan, where could there be warmth?
