Chapter 474: The Truth (3)
Seb was silent as he tried to piece together the events of the past. Even now, he was missing something. The reason why she eventually left him was still unclear to him. If that old man had really approved of Olivia then what went wrong?
"You’re wondering why then did I leave you? I didn’t mean to, Seb... I told you, I was foolish. So foolish that sometimes when I look back, I want to slap myself silly. But there was something else as well. Do you remember Vivienne?"
Seb stilled at the name. Of course he remembered her. The woman who had always tried to keep him away from Olivia claiming he wasn’t worthy of her. And then later when Olivia had left...
Olivia looked up at Seb’s face as he was lost in thought and clicked her fingers in front of his face. "You don’t remember her?" she asked with a frown. Vivienne was a sore spot for her. She was her sister and unlike most half sisters who created trouble for their sibling, she had not been like that... until she set her eyes on Seb of course. Who knew Viv would have fallen for Seb as well? But of course he didn’t know that...
Seb shook himself out of his thoughts and answered, "Hmm? I do..She was your half sister...your only friend you called her."
Olivia grimaced at that. If only she had known the truth earlier... Viv indeed had been a good friend...
"Well yes. Anyway, she didn’t like you and you know that. She was convinced that you would definitely cheat on me and step out on me. I know I shouldn’t have listened to her, but she was always saying that... and somehow, I don’t know when, I started doubting us. Maybe it was the repetition that you were always flirting, or how I didn’t have a background as strong as you so you would definitely try to suppress me. I just don’t know. But I fell for that gibberish. And didn’t even know that I’d donw that."
Seb widened his eyes at that. Vivienne had made no pretense about liking him and been quite vocal about opposing their relationship. But he’d never considered her a serious threat to their relationship. He’d always been secure in the love for each other.
