Should they separate for some time?

Sam's ears were filled with buzzing sound upon hearing Minerva's words.

They just got married not long ago, and they need to be separated then?

"Sam, you only have yourself to blame in this matter. You started a relationship with her before you got your emotions in check. If I could say so myself, I think you were in a rebound relationship with Ollie. You were confused and did not plan for this relationship to progress the way it did. What happened next was incidents that showed your lack of responsibility, including when you rushed in to save Vera from the fire and abandoned Ollie. I think the outcome from that already had a huge enough impact on her. When it happened again, you still chose her over Ollie. How would Ollie still be able to trust you again?" Minerva's words were clearcut and Sam was rendered speechless.

There was no fault to be found in what she had just said, and Sam was even able to see the key point of the matter clearly.

The key was that he had saved Vera, and it was not only once.

In the last fire accident, he had rushed into the fire to save Vera. As a result, his whole body was covered with burn wounds and injuries. Later on, when Vera saw the burns on his body, she somehow showed a distressed expression.

Olivia had remembered it, but because she was being considerate of him, she did not want to ponder on it too much.

However, that doesn't mean if the same incident happened the second time, Ollie would still be able to accept it.

Thinking of that, Sam felt extremely remorseful in his heart. However, since it had already happened, there was no use for him to mourn over it.

"I'm telling you what I'm feeling myself. If something like that happened between me and Maddox..."

Before she could finish, Maddox interrupted her, "Don't talk nonsense. How could I leave you behind to save other women? I won't even look at them, let alone saving them."

Minerva had no intention of saying Maddox would do that. She was actually just giving Sam an example.

She glanced helplessly at Maddox and said softly, "I didn't say that it would happen. It's just an

example. Why are you so nervous?" "Oh."

"Or, are you feeling guilty?"

"Why would I?" Maddox held her shoulder, "My dear wife, only Sam, an idiot would make do such a thing. The most important thing in my life for me, is my wife. This, I will always remember." Sam overheard Maddox calling him an idiot, and was speechless.

Could Young Master Yardley give him some respect? The call was still ongoing. Even if he wanted to criticize about him, couldn't he wait till the call ended?

Sam had a headache.

Later, Maddox said to him, "Sam, did you hear what I just said?"

"Yes."

Sam responded in a muffled voice.

"So do you agree that you're an idiot? It's simple. No matter what happened, you need to always choose your wife."

Maddox always lived by that rule.

"Okay, you shut up."

Minerva pushed Maddox away and said to Sam, "This is the example I gave you just now. If something like this happened between me and Maddox, I will definitely choose to separate for some time to calm down."

"What will happen after you calm down?"

That was what Sam was most worried about. He was worried that Olivia would no longer want anything to do with him after she calmed down.

What would happen after calming down?

Minerva responded faintly, "That depends on how deep her feelings are for you."

Hearing that, Sam's heart jolted, "Young Madam, what do you mean by that?"

"It means that if she has a deep affection for you, nothing could separate the both of you. After calming down and having some time to herself, she will come back to you However, if she doesn't like you that much, she will be able to see a clearer picture during the time to herself, and she will basically not come back anymore."

Hearing her last sentence saying that Ollie might not return to him anymore, Sam fell into silence for a while.

Meanwhile, Maddox, who had previously teased Sam had suddenly become quiet too. He looked at Minerva with a complicated gaze.

Realizing Sam's silence, Minerva sighed and said, "To be able to fall in love and get married is fate.

However, that's how fate is. I know

you don't want her to leave you, or else you wouldn't have tried to win her back with foolish acts like inflicting injury on yourself, but she had suffered mental torture

yelet

numerous times previously, and it is more serious than you think it is. It wouldn't be healthy for both of you if she stayed in the relationship in pain. Can you understand what I'm trying to say?"

Sam still didn't reply, so Minerva continued, "Since there is nothing you can do at this point of time, why don't you try out my suggestion? Haven't you heard of the saying, if you love her, set her free? If she comes back to you, she's yours. If she doesn't, she never was. This is a just a strategy, and it's not really just

backing up and letting her go."

Without waiting for Sam's reply, Maddox said softly, "He must have understood what you said, but just hasn't decided yet. Give him some time to think about it."

Minerva agreed with Maddox. She nodded and hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Minerva pondered for a moment and said, "Was I a little harsh just now? Do you think Sam will be able to process what I said?"

"Whether he is able to process it is not something you should worry about. You've already analyzed the situation for him clearly. Everything else will be up to him at this point."

That was true. No one could make a decision for anyone else.

Minerva could only show Sam her point of view of the path he should take, but she was not Sam, and the decision he would make was up to him.

With that thought in mind, Minerva returned the phone to Maddox.

"Well, he's definitely at fault in this matter. If you were to do this to me one day, I will surely not forgive you."

"It's impossible," Maddox took the phone over and casually placed it on the table. He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Minerva, who was about to leave, "Even if every man in the world would do so, I won't."

While speaking, his voice was getting deeper and he was getting closer to her red lips, "You will always be the only one in my heart."

"You know, you can just speak without doing this... Mm."

After hanging up the phone, Sam sat alone on the chair. His mind was previously in a mess, but his mind seemed to quiet down then, and he felt that his surrounding was a complete silence. He could see clearly through the mess in his head.

If Minerva hadn't brought up the fire accident, Sam would have forgotten about it. Ollie must have remembered that day clearly.

That must be when she started feeling betrayed and abandoned.

Those feelings must had started as just a seed, before there were other incidents to trigger them again.

However, overtime, as more incidents occurred, the seed would sprout, and overwhelm Olivia's heart as it grew taller.

Sam regretted all that he had done then but he couldn't go back to the past to amend it. Must he let her leave him and give the both of them some time to cool down?

If that was the case, what should he do? What about the child?
