Chapter 4009
Olivia, too, remained silent.
After a pause, she turned off the tap and said to Raphael, “Congratulations! I heard about your engagement.
”
Raphael didn’t respond but simply watched her closely.
As Olivia passed by him, he had the urge to reach for her hand, not caring about the consequences.
When Raphael glanced up, though, he noticed his fiancee at the end of the corridor, her eyes fixed on him with a gentle gaze.
He clasped his hands together in frustration.
Olivia had been his muse, the most beautiful thing in his life.
But his fiancee also complemented him well in reality.
She was kind and valued him, even if she’d never fully expressed her feelings for him in words.
She just showed him how much she loved him.
When Olivia walked past his fiancee, she paused for a moment.

The woman nodded to Olivia, and she returned the gesture politely.
They both understood each other’s roles.
That was just how adults navigated these situations; there was no need to make things ugly.
Olivia thought to herself that this might be the best ending for her and Raphael.
Then she considered Dylan.
He’d promised he’d be away for just five days, but over a month had passed without a word from him.
Olivia hadn’t planned what she would do when Dylan returned from his trip.
She didn’t even want to think about it.
In the parking lot, Olivia got into the car, and the driver said, “Miss Evans, there’s a gift for you on the back seat.
It’s from Mr.
Jones.
”
The driver had worked for the Evans family for years, so he knew how to speak carefully and when to keep his mouth shut.
Olivia glanced around and noticed a beautifully wrapped gift box on the back seat.
Judging by its packaging, she could tell it was something valuable.
Olivia picked up the box and asked gently, “Did he say anything else?”
The driver replied, “No, he just gave me the box and left.
”
He lowered his voice and asked, “Do you think Mr.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Jones will send Miss Leyla a gift every year now?”
Olivia didn’t respond but offered a faint smile.
She wasn’t entirely certain, but she appreciated Raphael’s gift for Leyla.
