Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 1480

Emma immediately noticed the odd tone of her voice and asked awkwardly, "Brenda, what's with your voice?"

Her own voice was scratchy from the lack of sleep, so was that the same case for Brenda?

Brenda sighed heavily and didn't hide the truth from her.

"I didn't sleep well last night so my voice sounds weird. You didn't sleep well either, did you?"

Brenda was honest, so Emma heaved a sigh as well.

"Yes, I was so worried that I didn't sleep all night. After I came back, I kept thinking about it. I'm worried about yesterday."

"Thus, I thought it'd be better to call you to talk about this and not tell our kids. After all, their relationship is going great, and they might feel displeased if we mention such a thing."

As she spoke, Emma gradually lost confidence while her voice grew softer, "Brenda, forgive me for being selfish, but I think Ollie and Sam are adults, and they have their own thoughts. We can, at most, discuss it with them, and we can't interfere in their decisions."

"If they really want to be together, and if we, as parents, are in their way, it'll hurt their feelings."

Brenda remained silent for a long time, and only the sound of her breathing was heard over the phone.

Emma was a little anxious, "Did I say something wrong?"

"No, you didn't."

Brenda shook her head. She hadn't slept all night, so she had called Ollie early in the morning when she got up. However, she had a different feeling right then.

Ollie's words echoed in her ears.

"That's because you didn't listen to me. If you were willing to do so, all of this wouldn't have happened!"

"I didn't want to be in a relationship, but you forced me into one. It got so bad until I avoided coming home and moved out instead."

"Now that I'm in a relationship, you're trying to ruin it."

"Mom, are you doing all this for my sake?"

"Why do I always have to play by your rules?"

"I'm not a child. I'm an adult, so can't I go along with my own plans?" "Those were words from the bottom of my heart. I don't want to live life the way you planned it, and I want to have control of my own life. I'll bear whatever consequences that come my way."

Olivia had always been well-behaved, and since Olivia was her only daughter, Brenda loved her dearly. However, that also caused her to want to mold Olivia in her image.

If it hadn't been for Olivia's anger, Brenda would have never expected what she had done to have such a huge impact on her daughter.

Olivia had grown up, and she was no longer a little girl.

Olivia was not a marionette, so how could she live life at the mercy of others?

Alas, it was a shame that Brenda realized it too late.

If she'd come to her senses sooner, perhaps she wouldn't have told Olivia about that. Emma obviously respected the children and Brenda more as she'd waited a whole night before she called.

Brenda felt extremely guilty at the thought of that.

"I'm sorry, Emma. I've already informed Ollie this morning."

"What?"

Emma was surprised, "You told her?

"When?"

"Right before you called."

Emma was rendered speechless.

"However, I think I might have made a mistake. I'm sorry."

"Don't sleep here, I'll bring you to the bedroom."

"No, no, no."

She rejected, "I'm not sleepy. I fell asleep by accident. Put me down. I want to stay here."

He obediently settled her down, and she went limp as soon as she landed on the sofa. She hugged a pillow and patted the space next to her.

"Come and take a seat."

Sam obviously felt that something was wrong with her, so he sat down in silence.

He waited for her to start speaking, but Olivia remained quiet even after a long while, so he turned around to ask, "What's wrong?"

"Why did you start drinking all of a sudden?"

"I wanted to drink, so I did. Why are you butting into my business?"

"Sam, don't think you can interfere with my affairs just because you're my boyfriend."

He pursed his lips and questioned in return, "Can't I?"

"No, you can't!"

"That won't do."

He grabbed her wrist and wrapped it in his warm palm, "I have to get involved in some affairs. For example, when you're lying on the sofa. What's going to happen if I leave you alone and you catch a cold?"

"What's more, what do I do if something happens to you while you're drinking when I'm not home?"

Olivia had managed to get a handle on her emotions, but her heart surged with distress upon hearing his words.
