Olivia said gratefully, "Thank you, Calvin.""Don't thank me. It was our fault anyway. If word about this spreads, our hospital's reputation would be ruined." Olivia replied, "Someone was targeting me, so it has nothing to do with the hospital. I won't tell a soul. I hope that you can keep this a secret too. Don't even tell Chris. I don't want to alert anyone."Calvin nodded in understanding. "Let's put this behind us for now. I suggest that you do another checkup. I'll personally run the tests this time. If there's any problem, we can start solving it earlier too." Olivia smiled and said, "It's no big deal. Don't worry.""Okay then. These machines are radioactive, so you shouldn't be exposed to them too frequently in such a short period of time. If you want to have another checkup in a few months, then you can contact me any time.""Sure."Calvin smiled warmly and said, "You're well enough to be discharged now. I've already asked someone to deal with the procedures. By the wa

"Doctor, how is he?" Olivia's heart was pounding violently as she gripped her sleeve tightly. She was terrified of hearing the worst. "Fortunately, the nurses noticed his condition very quickly, and we were able to save him in time. Olivia, I won't keep it from you. "Your father is in a very dangerous state, and we need the best brain specialist, Leo, to perform brain surgery for him. "Otherwise … We might not be able to save him next time."Olivia's heart sank. She wanted to find Leo more than anyone else. Alas, she didn't have a wide social circle. Keith had helped her look for Leo before, but to no avail. When Jeff was wheeled out, she saw how weak he looked with his eyes tightly shut. She called out, "Dad." However, it was like throwing a pebble down a well because she received no answer.One of Jeff's hands, which wasn't covered by the blanket, looked thin and wrinkled with age. He seemed to have aged a lot over the last two short years. Except for the indwelling nee

Ethan's impression was still the same as the last time, when she'd thrown a pot of porridge at him a few days ago. She'd been furious and crazy, and she'd looked just like an angry cat.Now, she was the exact opposite of that. Standing with her head bowed, she anxiously shifted from one foot to the other. Olivia tried to overcome the discomfort and awkwardness she felt under his gaze. Softly, she said, "I want to ask you for a favor." A laugh escaped his mouth as he sat with his legs crossed, plucking out a cigarette from a box. She knew he was mocking her. "What do you want now?" He asked. Jason Yates, a rich youngster, stood not far away from them. Somehow, he was able to discern the slight difference in the way Ethan treated herAs he approached them, he said, "There's no one in this world who wouldn't want to ask Mr. Miller for help. Young lady, is this the attitude you should have when you're asking someone for help? Hurry and light Mr. Miller's cigarette for him." Jaso

Someone handed her a warm glass of milk. "If you can't drink, then don't. Alcohol is bad for your health anyway. Here, have a glass of milk instead. You'll feel better after having it." Bryan's voice was soft and gentle, similar to how a brother would speak to his younger sibling. He knew who she was and was really kind to her. Olivia smiled at him gratefully, but before she could thank him, Ethan cut in, reminding her, "You have two glasses left." His voice was as cold as his gaze. Bryan furrowed his brows at Ethan. He knew how much Olivia meant to Ethan, and if the latter took things too far, not only would his actions hurt Olivia, but he would make himself miserable too. "Fine." Olivia didn't hesitate as she reached for the second glass of whiskey. The look on her face said that there was no turning back, and she finished the drink in one go. Her stomach felt like it had been punctured by thousands of blades. Having drunk too much alcohol too quickly, Olivia couldn't

Ethan's words were harsh, but Olivia was left with no other choice. She removed her hands from his chest, and his hands moved to her clothes. However, when he took her jacket off, he realized that she was wearing a sweater and another layer of thermal clothing under it. Ethan furrowed his brows in confusion. "Are you an old lady? Why are you wearing so many layers of clothes?" Blushing, Olivia bit her lip and replied, "I'm afraid of the cold."Suddenly, Ethan realized that she must be extremely thin to look fit even under so many layers of clothes. As his palm rested on the small of her back, he could feel her spine.It was as if there was no flesh to separate her skin from her bones, and he wondered how she became so thin. The lustful thoughts he'd had just seconds ago vanished, replaced by a sheen of guilt. Suddenly, Olivia glared at him, as though she'd only just realized what was happening. In a tone that made it abundantly clear that she wasn't happy, she questioned, "

Ethan took a furtive glance around the apartment. It wasn't big, but he could feel Olivia's presence in every corner. When he noticed the baby crib in her room, he remembered that it was the only thing she'd taken with her when she'd left him. As the realization washed over him, his heart turned into a jumbled mess. After seeing her jump off the building that day, he'd come to realize one thing. He'd followed after her without hesitation, which made him understand that he couldn't stop loving her no matter how much he hated her.His love and hate were intertwined. They fused into a prickly bramble full of thorns, coiling tightly around the two of them. It was as though the more he pushed her off into the dark, the closer he got to the edge of a cliff himself. Ethan picked up a soft toy on the bed. Olivia had always hugged it to make herself sleep for countless nights in the past two years. If only that incident hadn't happened, he would have been a good husband to Olivia and

Ethan had been expecting Brent to send some clothes over for him, so he walked straight out of the bathroom. He turned to look at the open door, only to find Keith standing there. Raising an eyebrow in question, he said to Olivia, "It seems like we have company."Olivia was still in her pajamas, whereas Ethan was wrapped in only a towel. No matter how one looked at it, they looked just like a couple who'd been married for years. Keith was neither blind nor stupid; he set the goods down and left, dispirited. Olivia didn't care to explain, which only convinced Keith that he'd guessed her situation correctly. Nevertheless, this was for the best. Ethan tossed a glance at the goods on the ground. "Am I not generous enough to you?" Ten billion dollars for their divorce was considered sky-high already. Olivia answered, "I'll give these to the old guy who collects the trash in our area."Ethan grunted. "Does he come here often?" "He visited once when I had a fever." "There wo

Stunned, Olivia stopped what she was doing and said sternly, "Madam, you've crossed the line. I want to talk to my father alone. Please leave." "Alright." The nurse closed the door gently and left. As usual, Olivia patiently wiped Jeff's body and trimmed his hair and nails. Had it not been for the electrocardiogram displaying his even heartbeat, she would have thought that he'd left her for good. Compared to the snowstorm before, the weather was great today, so she pushed the curtain away to let the sun's warm rays shine into the room. "Dad, I won't be able to stay with you for long. If you don't wake up soon, you might never see me again. Oh right—Ethan and I are divorced now." Olivia's voice was gentle as she spoke to her father, updating him on her life. Sunlight fell on her face as she smiled. "He wasn't very kind to me these two years, but he's been quite generous since our divorce. He's given me what he should, including a house, a car, and some shares. I'm filthy ric
