Olivia had considered that previously.
However, she later figured that she shouldn't be bullied and wronged for the sake of the child.
Yes, she chose to give birth to a child, so she had the responsibility to take care of the child and give him the best she could, but the quality of her life mattered too.
Even without Sam, she would still be able to give the child a good life on her own.
If Sam and her were together just for the sake of the child, and if they were unhappy, would the child not realize it even if they gave him the complete love of the father and mother? Based on how sensitive a child was, he would still know in the end how unhappy his parents were.
She didn't want the child to have an unhappy childhood and let him grow up in such situation.
"I must have talked too much. You must be annoyed now. I won't say anymore," Emma wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes sadly, and she couldn't restrain herself any longer. "During that six months that you were gone, I watched Sam got off work and take care of the child alone. I saw how he waited each day for your return and as his mom, I felt that his efforts would not be in vain. I thought that you would surely see his painstaking efforts and regrets. No matter how long it takes, as long as you returned, everything would be all right." "Yet, I did not expect that you indeed cback, but you just wanted to take the child with you." Emma could no longer hold in her tears and cried sorrowfully. As Emma cried, Olivia was extremely distressed, but she couldn't do anything.

I'll make it clear to him when he comes back." Olivia was a little surprised, "Mom?" "Go ahead, but you have to promisethat you will give yourself more tto think things over. Don't cut off Sam immediately. I slightly understood what had happened between the both of you but child, don' hold on to the past for too long. Know that Sam's heart now belongs to you completely." Olivia was touched by the last sentence, but it happened too quickly. Olivia quickly nodded and said, "I know, Mom. I will consider it carefully. I will leave with the child first then." "Go ahead." As Olivia carried the child and left, Emma didn't even dare to turn her head and look at them. She was afraid that she would regret her decision and go ahead and stop them if she did.
She was Sam's mother and she would definitely side with Sam no matter what it was, but also because she was a mother, she put herself in Ollie's shoes. Ollie was also a mother, therefore she certainly hopec to live with her child.
If she wanted to file for a divorce and if she was capable financially, she would definitely want to take care of the child independently.
Bang! The door to the entrance of the house slammed shut. Emma remained seated on the sofa, not moving.
The joy when she saw Ollie to the moment Ollie left with the child, Emma's joy was short-lived. Her emotion went from one extrto the other.
If she as a mother had such feelings, she couldn't imagine how much sadder Sam would feel.
After stime, Sam cback with bags of groceries. As he entered the house, he went straight to the kitchen and put away the groceries into the refrigerator silently. Emma watched him from her seat and saw that the refrigerator was full. He didn't ask about Olivia after he cback.
Did Sam think that Ollie was still in the room with the child? Thinking of that, Emma said, "There's no need for that anymore. She's gone." Hearing that, Sam stopped for a split second then continued to stuff things into the refrigerator. His movements were stiff as if he was a robot.
Emma burst with anger and charged towards Sam, "Did you hear what I just said? Ollie has left with the baby. Why don't you have any response? You looked like a dead person! Are you still a husband and a father?" Sam remained silent for a long time. He seemed to have lost all his strength.
"Then, what can I do?" "What?" "What can I do? She doesn't want to cback to me. In half a year, perhaps she has really made a decision." Saying that, Sam lowered his gaze and whispered helplessly as his lips twitched in helplessness, "Perhaps I should respect her choice. I don't want to force her anymore." "What do you mean by force?" Emma couldn't understand Sam's words. She was speechless and she pushed Sam on the shoulder, "You are the child's father and her husband. You are fighting forher, not forcing her, do you understand?" "Mom, that's enough." Sam pushed her hand away and returned to his room.
He locked himself in the room and closed his eyes. His mind began racing and memories from six months ago flooded in. In the past six months, he stayed calm each day and did not contact Olivia as he did not want to disturb her, but what did he get in the end? After she cback, she directly brought the child away. However, honestly, if that was her decision, he had to respect it.
After all, during Ollie's confinement period with him, even though he had always been with her, she had been very unhappy.
Perhaps, the two of them were not suitable to be in a marriage.
Sure enough, as the fortune teller had said, they would separate while alive, or be parted by death.
Sam covered his face with his hand and laughed bitterly.
After a long time, tears seeped out between his fingers.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter Olivia took the child away, she called Brenda. Brenda was about to go mad from losing Olivia and when she saw Olivia calling her, she straight away picked up the phone.
"Ollie?" "Mom, I got the baby." Brenda was shocked and for a long tshe didn't speak. When she finally calmed down, she asked, "Where are you now?" Olivia gave Brenda the address. After that, Olivia held the child tightly in her arms and sat on the roadside to wait for Brenda. Minutes later, Brenda arrived.
She couldn't believe it at first, but when she saw that the child in Olivia's arms was indeed her grandson, she was dumbstruck.
"Ollie, Ollie, have you met Sam?" Olivia sat motionless on the pavement and her eyes were soulless. It took her a long tto cto her senses, and then she looked up at Brenda. "Yes, I just met him."
Brenda looked at Olivia's expression and had a bad feeling in her heart.
eart and said, She reached out hexams "Come, help you carry the child." "No, I haven't seen him for a long time. I'll hold him myself." Olivia stood up and asked, "Mom, do you have things for him at home? I want to bring him to live at hfor a few days." "Of course," Brenda nodded. Since
she had her grandson, her house had om always had his things prepared. Besides, Sam would bring the child over to Brenda's every weekend, so naturally the house would have baby things, and they were all new. "Okay, then everything is settled. Let's go."
On the way back, there were a few times that Brenda wanted to ask om what was on Olivia's mind but in the O end, she thought better of it. Thus, she could only sigh helplessly in her heart. What else could she ask? Anyway, no matter what her daughter thought, she, as her mother, would support her unconditionally. Since it was so, there was no need to ask anything.
However, when they were about to arrive home, Olivia suddenly took the initiative to speak, "Mom, I am planning to divorce Sam." Hearing that, Brenda's breathing halted, and was stunned for the longest time.
"Di... divorce?" X
