In the hospital.In the emergency room, Olivia sat weakly on a sick bed. One hand was wrapped in bandages, and there were bloodstains on her white dress.Nicki stood by the bed with tears streaming down her face, crying uncontrollably.“Don’t cry, sweetie. Your mommy will be fine. It’s just a minor injury.”The nurse who was attending to Olivia comforted Nicki.She could not help but glance at Nicki. How could this woman, as a mother, not console her crying child?Her injuries were not serious at all. However, she was acting like she was dying.When Olivia heard the nurse say her injuries were not serious, she leaned back on the bed and massaged her temples. “Miss, I feel dizzy.”The nurse checked her condition and said, “Rest in bed for a while. If you still don’t feel better, ring the bell.”There was no injury on her head, so the dizziness was due to low blood sugar. A little rest would help her recover.“Okay, thank you.”After the nurse left, Olivia looked at Nicki and
Blair nodded. He remembered someone had drugged Liv with an unknown substance five years ago. However, he still did not know what that substance was.It was only now that he had found her, and she had undergone a full-body checkup that revealed a rare toxin that integrated into her bloodstream.Blair asked, “Have you figured out the detoxification method?”Dr. Zimmer said, “I’ve done a lot of research recently and did find a way to detoxify her. However, the most crucial medicinal herb is very hard to come by.”“What is it?”“The Ice Jade Flower.”Blair was stunned and frowned.The last remaining Ice Jade Flower had been given to Mable.Dr. Zimmer explained, “Master Blair, the Ice Jade Flower can neutralize all sorts of poisons. Using it will definitely cure Ms. Page.”Blair shook his head and said in a low voice, “The Ice Jade Flower has already been given to someone else. Is there any other method?”Dr. Zimmer looked at Blair in surprise. “There are no other methods.”Afte
In Oak Villa of Linders Castle, Frasier.After breakfast, Rory prepared to return to the castle with Mable and the others by helicopter.The castle was not far from Linders City, only an hour away by helicopter.Just before boarding, Rory received a call and went to the study with Adam.Mable waited in the living room. She did not sleep a wink last night. Her spirits were low, and her complexion was not too great.Her phone suddenly rang. Mable looked at it and saw that it was from Rahman.“Hello?”Mable answered the call, her voice lacking energy. “What’s going on, Rahman?”There was no sound from the phone.Mable frowned. “Rahman?”Then, a cold voice sounded. “It’s me, Mable.”Mable was stunned.It was Blair!Mable’s eyes teared up at the familiar voice.It had only been a week. Why did it feel like she had gone through so much?Overwhelming pain and sadness washed over her.She quickly composed herself and suppressed her surging emotions, asking, “Why is Rahman’s pho
“Don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to your grandfather.”The person Mable cared about the most was also someone he cared about.Mable frowned. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”Rory leaned back on the sofa and crossed his legs, saying in a lazy tone, “You were unconscious at the time. You couldn’t do anything even if I told you.”Mable looked at Adam. “The person Blair wants is me. I’ll go to Richworth.”Rory looked at her coldly and reprimanded her, “I’m guessing that Blair must think the confidential information about X was stolen by you and Zoe. He captured your grandfather to lure you out. Going to him is seeking your own death!”Adam nodded in agreement. “Rorr is right. It’s better if I go. Don’t worry, Mable. I’ll definitely save your grandfather.”“No, I’m going!”Mable insisted, her tone serious.She could not gamble on her grandfather’s life.Since Blair dared to say what he did, he would not allow them to rescue them easily. Even if Adam personally stepped in
Blair got into the car and looked at Mable, standing to the side without moving. He said in a cold tone, “You have till the count of three.”Mable pursed her lips but got into the car before Blair could count to three.“Drive!” He instructed the driver.The car sped away, racing down the road. Mable held her stomach, feeling motion sickness.Blair saw her pale face and how her hands were clenched tightly over her lap.He sneered and said mockingly, “Did you rush back here for your grandfather or Rahman?”Mable met his gaze. “If you have a grudge, come after me. Don’t harm my grandpa or Rahman.”Blair narrowed his eyes as his gaze turned colder. “Who else do you care about besides your grandpa and Rahman?”“You—”Blair interrupted her with a sneer. “Oh, I forgot. You still have Rory in your heart. After all, he’s your most beloved. You’ve gone to great lengths to help him steal my company’s secrets. Rory must be touched by all that you’ve done for him.”Blair suppressed his bu
“Mable, if you want your grandfather to be safe, you’d better be obedient!”After saying that, Blair dragged Mable into the elevator.The elevator went up and stopped at the third floor.Blair walked quickly, gripping Mable’s wrist so hard that she almost stumbled.He pulled her into an examination room, pressed her down on a chair, and said to the nurse, “Draw her blood!”Mable forcefully shook Blair’s hand away. “What do you want?”Blair pressed down on her shoulders to prevent her from getting up. “Donate 300ml of blood, or I’ll draw your grandpa’s blood. It’s your choice.”Mable froze. Blair threatened her to come back just so he could draw her blood?He looked at the time and repeated to the nurse, “Draw her blood!”The nurse moved quickly. Before Mable could react, a tourniquet was tied around her arm.The needle punctured her vein, and her dark red blood slowly flowed into a bag.As the blood trickled out, Mable’s already pale face became even paler.She leaned again
Miscarriage?Blair stared at Mable. His gaze moved to her belly in disbelief.He spoke with a trembling voice, “She’s… pregnant?”The doctor was stunned that Blair did not know about Mable’s pregnancy.The doctor nodded. “Yes.”“Are you sure she’s pregnant?”Blair confirmed with the doctor again.That was because Mable told Blair she had been seriously injured before and could not get pregnant.So, how did she get pregnant?“I’m sure,” the doctor said certainly. “She’s eight and a half weeks pregnant.”Blair stared at Mable. His heart was pounding, and his eyes filled with surprise and joy.He stretched out his hand and gently placed his palm on Mable’s belly, afraid of waking her. He was pleasantly surprised.Eight and a half weeks was two months ago, when Mable and Blair were still on good terms.Blair suddenly remembered that Mable had been complaining about an upset stomach and nausea a while back. Moreover, she was particularly lethargic. Mable said it was gastroenter
Blair glared at Kyle. “What about you? If you had just been ruthless to Zoe from the beginning, would she have had the opportunity to steal our company secrets?”Kyle’s eyes darkened. He clenched his fists and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t go easy on her once I catch her!”Blair was sitting on the edge of the sofa, holding a cigarette between his fingers. A puff of smoke covered his face. “Only the Ice Jade Flower can detoxify Liv’s poison. Now, I need Mable’s blood as an antidote.”Mable was shocked. She felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar.She was wondering why Blair wanted her blood when she had the most common type A blood that could be found in any hospital’s blood bank. It turned out that it was because of Liv.Everything he did was for Liv.Blair was willing to exchange Mable’s life for news about Liv. To save Liv, Blair also wanted Mable to give Liv blood.It did not matter to Blair that Mable could die.Mable leaned against the wall, heartbroken and unable to bre
