Only If You Know

Olivia was delighted today. Not because she was beaten up, but because she met Cameron the day before. His innocent expression always makes her smile. Of course, she cannot support him, but she can be a better and stronger person for him. He is the only person she has left who is of her own blood.

She went downstairs and sat with the Knights' family with great enthusiasm. “You look happy now, and you have done a good job hiding your bruise,” Ella said.

“Are you going somewhere?” David inquired.

“Uh, yeah, I am just going for a walk or something. To get some fresh air.” Olivia tried to reason. She didn't want to tell them the truth.

“Well, that will be good for you,” David said, smiling.

“I hope so.” She quickly ate some toast and drank some orange juice before leaving.

She does not want them to question her about her eating habits again. However, there is a reason she can't eat too much. Her body has become accustomed to eating less for many years, and it will take time for her to increase her appetite.

She already owes them a great deal. And, to be honest, all the money in her bank account is for Cameron, her little angel. He will be able to use it once he's grown up. She is already irreparably damaged, and the money will be a waste if spent on her. Cameron deserves to

few more hours, and it was soon 5 o'clock. She and Grams ate lunch together, and she ate little as usual. However, because the good old lady was insistent, she had to make an excuse for eating a large breakfast. Olivia quickly left and returned to see Cameron. She was glad to see him.
