Hunting for His EX-Wife

Five years later, Olivia took the salary given by the convenience store owner and a sweet smile appeared on her face. With this salary, she could afford her son’s tuition fees and send him to kindergarten like other children.

“Thank you, Ma’ma.”

Olivia smiled and said thank you.

The owner nodded.

“It’s really tough for you to raise a child alone. Have you ever thought about finding a father for Jay? Last time, a customer in my store was asking about you all the time. It’s obvious that he’s interested in you and he promised to treat Jay as his own son.”

Olivia sighed.

“I don’t remember anything from before, not even my name. It was the elderly couple who saved me that gave me a name. As a woman who has lost all her memories and doesn’t even know who her child’s father is, which man would dare to easily accept me? Besides, Jay and I have been living well together for so many years. Although we live in poverty, Jay is really sensible and having him is enough.”

Olivia wiped the sweat off her face and when she mentioned her baby son, a happy smile appeared on her face.

Although raising Jay alone and experiencing so much has been tough, this kind of experience is what I have longed for the most.

The store owner’s face showed a touch of regret.

“Ma’ma, I need to go to the next store for my part-time job. I gotta go now. We’ll see each other tomorrow.”

After glancing at the time, Olivia quickly pushed her bicycle and left the convenience store in a hurry.

When she finished all her part-time jobs and returned to the rental house, it was already 10 o’clock at night.

Olivia dragged her exhausted body to open the door of her room. The room was small and there was no space for anything other than essential daily necessities.

At a glance, she saw her baby son cooking instant noodles in front of the stove.

Watching her son’s small figure, Olivia’s eyes were filled with a mist of tears.NôvelDrama.Org content.

Even though she has taken on several part-time jobs, after paying for rent and necessary expenses, she has nothing left for herself. She truly hates that she is not capable of providing a better life for her son.

“Olivia, you’re back?”

Olivia planted a kiss on her son’s handsome little face before settling him onto the nearby chair.

“If I can earn more money, you won’t have to eat instant noodles every day,” she said.

Looking at her son’s pale face, Olivia felt even more guilty. His small and thin body worried her. Was it really suitable for him to attend kindergarten with such poor nutrition?

Jay shook his head. “I like eating instant noodles of all flavors, and I can even cook them for you.”

Olivia sighed as she watched her thoughtful and considerate son. She promised herself that she would work harder to give Jay a better life.

Opening the small refrigerator, Olivia took out the only two eggs inside. Although it was just two bowls of noodles with two eggs, mother and son were happy to share this meal together.

To ensure that Jay got enough nutrition, Olivia put both eggs in his bowl but he wasn’t pleased about it.

“We should share good fortune and hardship together – one egg each,” he said as he placed one egg in Olivia’s bowl.

“Olivia, you can’t refuse me or I’ll get angry,” Jay warned playfully but with an air of maturity beyond his years – perhaps inherited from his unknown father?

“Okay then, let’s eat together,” replied a happy Olivia after seeing how much love there was between them over something so simple as sharing food.

After dinner, they played games on the computer like they usually did, but when she saw how proficiently Jay typed away at the keyboard, she couldn’t help feeling curious about what he was doing online.

The computer had been purchased at Jay’s strong request. Although it couldn’t create a better life for him directly, Olivia hoped that through the internet he could learn about things outside Trada because Trada was too small after all…

“All done!” exclaimed Jay happily as he closed down the computer screen and snuggled up against Olivia’s chest.

“You can’t play on your computer every day because it isn’t good for your eyesight, okay?” cautioned Olivia softly .

Jay lifted his head in her arms, revealing a handsome little face with a bright smile.

“At your service, Mommy.”

Olivia’s face lit up with happiness at her son’s promise.

“I’ve saved enough money for your kindergarten fees. You can start tomorrow.”

Olivia suddenly remembered this and told her son.

“I can still live well without going to kindergarten, Olivia. You can save that money for later use. I’ll be able to go to elementary school even if I don’t go to kindergarten,” Jay said confidently.

“No, you cannot.”

Olivia disagreed with her son’s decision.

“Although you are very smart, I hope that you can receive more formal education and not miss out on the life normal children should lead. So you must go to kindergarten.”

Jay responded with an “OK,” but his round eyes were filled with wisdom.

When the program he designed could run smoothly, Olivia wouldn’t have to work so hard every day doing several part-time jobs. It wasn’t time yet to tell her about it, and he wanted it to be a surprise when the time came.

Ring…

The phone interrupted their warm mother-son moment. Seeing that it was Ruth, whom she had known for two years already, Olivia quickly answered the call button.

“There is an event at the mall tomorrow and they need several part-time girls. Do you have time? Do you want a part-time job?”

Ruth’s voice was as straightforward as her personality.

“We’ll wear the mascot costumes; the salary is quite good.” Olivia thought about it before answering Ruth positively. “Okay, I’ll go. I can take Jay along since he hasn’t been out in a while anyway.”

After chatting for a few more minutes on the phone together, they hung up simultaneously .

“I’m finally going to work together with Olivia! So happy!” Jay happily threw himself into his mother’s arms after she hung up from talking on the phone.

Looking at her precious baby boy in her arms, Olivia smiled brightly .

Inwardly, Olivia made herself this vow: I will do everything possible to give my baby boy the best life possible .
