Chapter 584: Chapter 584: Not Enough Love

Daniel Marshall’s deep gaze made one’s heart flutter. “Have you ever considered giving up your career?”

You can balance children and a career!

If they are willing and work together, even if they are busy with their respective careers, they can still coordinate time to take care of their children. There is no conflict.

As long as they love their child, as long as they love each other and are willing to consider each other, there is nothing they can’t accomplish!

By asking this, Daniel was clearly making an excuse, avoiding his own issues. He obviously did not want children.

Even if his grandfather had made this request, he still would not let her have children!

Without hesitation, Olivia refuted, her clear eyes never wavering as she stared at Daniel, “Rest assured, I won’t bear your child, I was just testing you. Grandfather is pressuring me to have a child, and I was afraid that you would not be able to resist and end up pressuring me too.

Since we are still in agreement, I feel reassured. I won’t need to agonize over grandfather’s pleas. The Jenkins Group is what my father left me, I don’t care about its monetary value, to me, it is priceless. I will spend my entire life protecting it, and I’m definitely not giving up on this career.”

Olivia’s reaction was exactly what Daniel wanted. He should’ve felt relieved, but hearing Olivia’s indifferent tone and cold words somehow ignited an unnamed fury within him.

It’s not that he doesn’t want a child, he fears that a disastrous event could occur again.

After his grandfather’s accident, he had considered having a child and had planned to discuss it with Olivia. But just when he had thought about it, that speeding car almost striking Olivia outside RenewalCare Hospital tonight was such a horrifying sight. It felt like a cursed existence in an instant, his mind went blank, overwhelmed by fear that he might lose her.

If having a child puts her at risk of loss, then every time he thinks of that terriying car accident, he cannot bear it. Therefore, he prefers not having a child. He only wants her to be safe and alive. He does not want her to take risks for him.

Olivia’s indifference, her unwillingness to bear his child, truly hurts him. His thoughts are conflicted, chaotic and undecided.

“Darling, can we not discuss this topic in the future? I don’t want it to cause a rift between us. We can be very happy, very sweet, without any changes. With Grandfather’s unstable condition, we can keep appeasing him.”
