Chapter 20
Their first stop was Sevarra in Liorra.
It was a place Olivia had always dreamed of visiting ever since watching the movie Whispers of
Arlen. She had originally planned to come here for her graduation trip. But that plan was interrupted by the accident and five long years of unconsciousness.
Now, finally, she was here. It felt like she had finally made up for the regret she had back in college.
Sevarra was a stunning island town, famous for its heart–shaped coastline and breathtaking views.
The moment they arrived, the town’s vibrant charm wrapped around them.
Tourists bustled through the streets, and the scent of food lingered warmly in the air.
Hand in hand, Olivia and Ethan strolled down cobbled streets lined with medieval architecture.
Every stone beneath their feet whispered stories of ancient times.
Golden cottages stood in gentle clusters along the road, glowing in the sunlight.
Olivia stopped now and then to admire the quaint local shops, each filled with delicate crafts and
unique souvenirs that she couldn’t resist touching.
Eventually, they made their way up to the highest point in town.
From there, she looked out across Sevarra and the glittering sea beyond. The view took her breath
away.
In the distance, the famed Isle of Seraphine lay quietly in the bay, like a luminous pearl set on a
mirror of blue.
The Sea of Liora shimmered under the sun, where sky and water met in a flawless embrace. It was
so beautiful, it almost didn’t feel real.
Olivia closed her eyes and let the salty sea breeze brush across her face. For a moment, it felt like
every worry she’d ever had was being swept away by that wind.
“Ethan,” she said softly, “will you always stay by my side like this?”
He took off his jacket and gently draped it over her shoulders.
“Of course. In this life, I’ll only ever love you.”

Olivia smiled faintly at his reply.
“Did you ever… love Lillian?”
Ethan froze. It took him a while to answer.
“You heard what happened in the reception room, didn’t you?”
She nodded, eyes fixed on the ocean in the distance.
Ethan didn’t know what to say. The truth was–yes. He had once loved Lillian.
She was completely different from Olivia. She was strong–willed, stubborn, and fiercely devoted to
what she believed in.
She wore her heart on her sleeve, unafraid to express her feelings.
If Olivia’s love was a whisper between lovers, then Lillian’s was a firework bursting in the sky.
He had been drawn to her. He had fallen for her. And because of that, he had hurt Olivia over and
over in their past life.
From his silence, Olivia already had her answer.
After a long pause, she spoke, her voice barely above a whisper.
“It’s okay. As long as you love me now, that’s enough.
Ethan let out a deep breath of relief and kissed her deeply, fiercely. The kiss carried his love, his guilt, and a thousand regrets from the life before.
“Olivia, I love you,” he murmured against her lips.
“I swear on my life, I’ll love
you
forever.”
That afternoon, they visited the ancient Elarian Theater, a 2,300–year–old amphitheater built on a
cliffside, like a bird’s nest suspended between sea and sky.
They entered the theater and sat together on the weathered stone seats, listening to the wind whisper through the ruins, imagining echoes of performances from millennia ago.
From the top of the theater, the view was breathtaking: ancient columns in the foreground, a
medieval village halfway up the hill, a fortress perched even higher and beyond it all, the vast ocean
and a distant volcano sleeping at the edge of the horizon.

The two of them sat in silence, immersed in the breathtaking view, imagining the grand performances that might have unfolded here a thousand years ago.
Later, sunlight spilled across the shore, making the white sand sparkle like gold dust.
Olivia took off her shoes and walked barefoot on the beach, feeling the fine grains of sand slipping
between her toes.
Ethan carried her shoes in one hand and held her steady with the other, warning her to watch out for shells and sharp stones.
By the sea, people were sunbathing, swimming, and surfing, their faces lit up with joyful smiles.
Olivia and Ethan wandered without a fixed destination. If they liked a city, they stayed longer. And when they felt ready, they moved on to the next.
Two months passed quickly.
By then, Ethan’s work had begun to pile up, and Olivia’s readers were eagerly waiting for her next comic. Reluctantly, the two of them ended their journey for now.
