Chapter 12 Honest, Brave And True
When all of the parents were giving her a hard time, Lily Jones frowned. If this Oliver Walker was indeed impersonating someone else, this would be a big problem, and it might even be a crime.
Olivia finally had a father and she didn't want to see this man locked up in prison. She gently reminded him, "Olivia's father, you….you should keep these medals. Can you?"
From the bottom of her heart, she was willing to believe that these were true but it was too extraordinary!
Oliver Walker smiled and said, "These are just toys."
Toys?!
These medals that represented glory and pride were toys?
This….wasn't he being too arrogant?
Plus, there were so many first-class honors here!
The rest of the noisy parents felt their hearts getting squeezed when they heard what he said.
In their eyes, this glory was something that they would never be able to achieve, but for Oliver Walker, it was just part of his past.
He was already a war god. He didn't care about these. This was because these medals would not be enough to show what they accomplished.
They were still fighting because they had to be responsible for the country.
It was the responsibility and obligation of its citizens toward its country!
What more for someone like him?
As for those parents who were complaining about him, he wasn't bothered about them, but Olivia's home teacher seemed to be a wonderful person.
So, he thought that he should explain it to her.
"But..."
Lily Jones's heart was beating fast. Upon seeing saw how calm Oliver was, she felt like he was someone who had encountered situations like these!
"You are an impersonator, and you have to go to jail for this!"
"Impersonating a soldier is a heavy crime!"
"You are destroying the image of soldiers!"
"..."
The war in Indiana had been going on for 8 years and it was finally coming to an end.
The war was hard and brutal. There were so many souls and bodies that never returned!
None of the citizens would allow another man to use their hero's name to go around lying to others.
However, none of them were sure of Oliver's identity, so they still tried to suppress their rage.
After hearing the things that the other parents were saying, Olivia finally realized how serious things were getting. She was grateful that this man allowed her to experience what it was like to have a father. She quickly gathered the medals and hid them in Oliver's pockets.
The timid look in her eyes caused Oliver's heart to break.
He was indeed a hero. Why was it an impersonation?
But, he did not stop Olivia, so all of them thought that he was now feeling guilty!
"Teacher Lily, did you see that?"
"Olivia is such a young child, but she has already started telling lies with her father!"
"How could she be chosen as a good student?"
"..."
Oliver Walker couldn't stand it anymore after giving them multiple chances. His aura spread around the room as his gaze swept across the classroom, "Olivia is not lying!
"You can hate on me but not my daughter!"
He had been away from home for the past 8 years and he owned them too much.
Every single one of them could judge him!
But they could never judge Olivia!
This was his baseline and no one was allowed to challenge it!
Most of the parents here were working-class adults, and the rest of them had only been to the army for compulsory services. When had they ever seen the aura of a general who led thousands of soldiers?
Therefore, as soon as his emotions exploded, all of them shut their mouths and caused the whole room to turn quiet once again.
Lily Jones frowned, and she could see that Oliver really loved Olivia.
But this murderous aura...
Olivia smiled. The man who was holding her in his arms had allowed her to experience what it was like to have a father.
However, she was just a young girl, and she didn't want the man to continue lying for her.
She was happy enough to have experienced it once!
She gently opened her mouth and said, "Daddy!"
This instantly melted Oliver's heart and he nodded his head.
"Olivia, what do you want? Just tell me what it is.
"Even if you wish for the stars at night, I will still get them for you!"
The things he owed his daughter would never be compensable with any of these medals.
He only wanted to fulfill all of her daughter's wishes so that his guilty heart would feel a little better.
So that he would be good enough to be her father!
Olivia said in a solemn tone, "You said that you want me to be honest, brave, and true.
"But, I lied."
Deep inside her head, she had numerous thoughts but she couldn't express herself.
From her perspective, Oliver Walker only did something so stupid because of her.
She didn't want a good man like him to end up in trouble.
As for a father, she was grateful that she got to experience it!
Although it would not be able to replace the genuine one, she at least still got to experience it!
The love from a father was sweet and warm, as beautiful as the lollipop that her teacher gave her.
Oliver Walker trembled. He stared at his daughter. He wanted to scream out loud that he was really her father.
None of this was an act.
He was only scared that once he told the truth, it would ruin everything!
At this moment, the man who was not afraid to fight thousands of soldiers alone had become a coward.
However, it was the little girl, Olivia, who lifted up her head and smiled, "Teacher Lily, I'm sorry. I haven't been a good girl. I...lied."
"He...is not my father!"
As soon as they were told, the rest of the parents and Lily Jones were completely stunned!
This man….wasn't her father?
At that instant, no one was able to react quickly enough, and the classroom was quiet once again.
Olivia turned around with a bright, pure smile on her face, "Uncle, thank you for coming to this meeting for me. I will promise you that I will be an honest, brave, and true little girl!
"I promise that this is the last time I will be lying!"
Oliver Walker froze.
pAn,Da-n0v e1,c The sweet, soft voice of Olivia was like the most powerful weapon that was stabbing him in his heart. It threw him into the depth of the abyss!
"Olivia…..I..."
He choked. For some reason, he couldn't say anything.
Honest!
Brave!
True!
She was such a great kid!
Seeing how the lie had been exposed, Lily Jones was not angry. She was heartbroken!
Look at this little girl. How pure and gullible was she?
"I knew that he was a fake!"
"Quick! Call the police!"
"No! He was impersonating a soldier, he should go to the army's court! You should call the army!"
"..."
When Olivia single-handedly exposed the lie, all of the parents were furious, and they were burning with rage.
This man had lied about being a soldier. It was shameful and such an evil thing to do!
"Hello, I want to make a report. I am now at Riverdale Nursery, and someone here is impersonating a hero who has returned from the frontline..."
Someone actually called the police!
They respected and admired their heroes!
They hated all those who pretended to be one!
"Huhuhuhu..."
Then, Olivia started panting, and her breaths were getting shorter.
Her face was pale and there was blood coming out of her nose and mouth. Her body was weak as she fell into the man's arms and used up all of the energy in her body to say, "I'm...sorry….I…..dirtied….your…your clothes."
With that said, she closed her eyes and went unconscious.
She was still trying to maintain the smile on her face!
"Olivia!"
Oliver Walker screamed as his heart broke into pieces. His body was trembling nonstop. He knew that Olivia was having an acute attack and it was deadly...
