In a previous life, Alieen only came back once after leaving, even to the later days Tatum’s health had a big problem until the disease died, Alieen did not come back to see a glance.
Still reluctantly shelled out money for the funeral.
Looking at Tatum, Olive could not bear to see a mother so humble and could not help but advise her.
“Don’t be naive.”
Olive wanted to remind Tatum not to get her hopes up about Alieen, because the rest of Tatum’s life was really miserable alone.
But Tatum didn’t think so, she didn’t understand Olive’s meaning, she thought it was still provoking the close relationship between their mother and daughter.
In fact, the queen mother really obeyed Alieen, giving her whatever she wanted and treating Alieen extremely well.
Tatum still had trouble hiding her serious disappointment and sadness after hearing all this, but she didn’t want to show it in front of Olive, so she turned her head away and pretended she was fine.
“I know you are just jealous of our Alieen, you still go home to stir up the relationship, how can you be so bad, you just see Alieen work more opportunities, jealous in your heart!”
Olive also do not want to argue more is what, since she does not listen to people, so be it.
Looking at the woman in front of her, her face full of wrinkles, her hair turning white, her rough hands, maybe this time back is Olive’s last time back.
She always couldn’t bear to leave like this.
“Then you take good care of yourself, remember to rush to the hospital if you don’t feel well.”
After saying that, she made up her mind to leave and not to stay any longer.
“Wait, wait for me.”
Olive was suddenly called to stop.
Looking at Tatum, who was already hunched over, Olive felt that time waits for no one, and that the years were already long.
Tatum was getting older and older, and had no children to accompany her in the days ahead, because of the accumulation of strain, and finally died of cardiovascular disease, coronary atherosclerosis.
In the last life, the news of her death was sudden.
“What’s wrong?”
Olive looked back at Tatum and saw her go into the inner room not knowing what she had gone to get.
As she watched, she rummaged through the bottom of the box and pulled out a box that was very well made and should not be an ordinary box.
When she went back to retrieve something, Olive was still wondering what this Tatum suddenly called herself to do, and thought that this thing was entrusted to her to bring to Alieen.
“This is the … dowry your father left you, since you are back this time take it, and don’t you go back to this house.”
The old woman in front of her seemed to have settled a matter of the heart, not wanting to worry about it anymore, her face was full of traces of the passage of time, probably the reason that now supports her to continue to live with hope is Alieen it.
Tatum wanted to make an end to it today, and Olive and the family would have no more problems or disputes.
Olive had some doubts, but now it seems that there is nothing wrong, she is now an adult and can live alone.
She reached out with both hands to take the box, carefully opened the lid and placed it on the table.
Inside the wooden box were some jewelry, gold, silver, and jade, all in styles and colors that were not the current aesthetic, but were left to her by her father.
“You actually still have these things?”
Olive was actually a little bit surprised because back then everyone was saying that she, Olive, was able to come to Tatum’s house because of thinking about these things and Olive was able to come to live with her family.
Everyone said that Tatum had taken her dowry, but it didn’t look like that, and Olive had taken the heart of a gentleman.
“Thank you.”
Faced with these wishes and care from her father, Olive is very touched, in fact, what is more touching is that Tatum even left these things.
In fact, Tatum is not considered to be easy-going and caring children.
But Olive was not sold to the field to work for you, and did not starve to death, these are the reasons why Tatum did not fall into the well.
Olive clutches the box in her hand.
It had been a long time since she had expressed her gratitude to anyone, and the two words were a little uncomfortable and uncomfortable to say out loud.
Tatum did not think so, she certainly did not know what would happen in the future, what kind of end she would be.
“No need to thank me, I just returned all your things to you, just don’t come back to my house and don’t come back to me in the future.”
Then he waved his hand, signaling that she could leave.
Olive left with the box in her arms, but still gave a reminder.
“Don’t hold it in when it’s hard, go to the hospital, and call me if you need money.”
She also knew that her words Tatum do not know whether they can listen to three points, but she has also been benevolent, changing the trajectory of destiny may not be successful, but can remind a little can.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Tatum is not a caring mother, not what noble character, but did not sell Olive to another village to do child bride is already good, and did not withhold her rations, just let her work more, Olive she is also considered to grow up.
In fact, this seems to Tatum has been very good, Olive is satisfied.
Tatum is a face of disgust, today this Olive how has been saying some strange words, always let their own attention to the body sick to go to the hospital, this is not a curse me it.
Olive walked out of the room, closed the door, Tatum’s figure disappeared at the moment the door closed, from then on we should never see each other again.
This so-called home, in fact, she Olive does not have any special feeling, because the sense of belonging is not strong.
Olive had died of a hemorrhage in childbirth when she was born, and her father took care of her before she came to Tatum.
But the memories are all scenes of Tatum torturing herself to work.
Starting today, it is completely out of the house.
Olive carried the boxes, carefully arranging them neatly and putting them in place.
Shane also waited in the car for a while, and now the two were ready to go together to the orphanage of their childhood.
The village scenery is naturally not bad, green hills and blue skies remain, the slow flow of the stream is filled with leisurely and leisurely rural life.
But the road is not very good, two people wandered before arriving at the destination.
In this room two people are both silent, seems to be a lot of things on the mind.
Olive was the first to break the awkwardness.
“What are you thinking about? You don’t really want Theresa’s daughter to marry you, do you?”
It was actually a joke to lighten the mood.
Shane’s face turned green, but no one ever dared to talk about his own gossip and jokes.
After a long journey, they finally arrived at Turpin Village.
This is the place, Shane’s memories are here, but unfortunately now he does not remember anything.
Faced with the familiar scene, Shane has been silent.
