The snowfall was getting heavier. Ethan also slowed down the car.There were a few cars behind them. On the snowy night, the line of cars turned into part of the landscape.Very few people were out on a cold winter night. Because of New Year's Day, colorful lights were everywhere. The whole world looked quiet and gentle.It was painstakingly quiet in the car. Ethan wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to start.Meanwhile, Olivia watched the scenery outside the window, deep in thought.They were about to round a corner. Ethan slowed down ahead of time.Just then, a vehicle from another lane hurtled toward them. Aimed at Ethan's car, it sped toward them with abandon.Startled by the sudden turn of events, Ethan hastily turned the steering wheel, moving the car onto the pedestrian lane at the side to avoid the vehicle.Ethan had already reacted quickly, but when the vehicle sped toward them, it still grazed the side of the driver's seat.The vehicle was a middle-sized
Kelvin dashed forward amidst the gunshots. When he saw the terrifying scene, he was startled as well. "Mr. Miller!"Ethan was in so much pain that his forehead was covered in cold sweat. His lips were pale, but still, he said, "Save Liv first."The door on the passenger seat was right against a wall, so it couldn't be opened. The large truck was on their left.So, Kelvin could only squeeze in through the broken windscreen from the top of the car. "Hang in there, Mr. Miller."Olivia caressed Ethan's face with her trembling fingers. Tears rolled down her cheeks in large droplets.Ethan smiled weakly at her, saying, "Liv, you were right, after all. I'm afraid I'll be giving back my life to you."I'm not scared of death. I'm just afraid that when I die, no one will protect you and the kids anymore. I'm sorry, I never got to be a good father or husband."I caused you and the children to suffer and get hurt …"He coughed, and blood streamed out of the corner of his lips.Even wh
Olivia had no idea about Ethan's blood type. Kelvin explained, "Mr. Miller's blood type is the rare P1 type."When Olivia heard that, her vision turned black. She almost fainted on the spot.She had learned medicine before. So, of course, she knew how rare this blood type was.The P blood group system was a different system from the ABO and RhD systems. It was categorized into five types: P1, P2, P1k, P2k, and P.P1 and P2 were more commonly found, and the last three types were even rarer.P-type blood was already difficult enough to obtain. But Ethan was injured, and he needed a massive blood transfusion. The blood in the blood bank might not be enough for him."How can this be …"Olivia took a step backward. If Kelvin hadn't supported her, she would have gone weak in the knees and fallen to the floor.If she knew that this would happen, she would rather be the one who got hurt."Don't be too worried, Mrs. Miller. Mr. Miller has always had a strong body, so he will be fin
Kelvin hastily got someone to bandage Olivia's wound. Now, Olivia was wholly focused on Ethan, so she didn't feel the pain at all.The doors to the operating room opened. Krystal walked out.When she walked in, she was spirited and noble. But when she came out, even her lips were pale. She needed help to walk, too.She must have drawn too much blood, so her limbs had weakened.When Krystal came over, she was in such a hurry that she didn't notice Olivia. Now, as Olivia observed her, she was examining Olivia as well.She recognized Olivia right away.Olivia was the woman Ethan always had on his mind.After the operation, Krystal was also aware of what happened just now. With Ethan's capabilities, he would be able to protect himself under any circumstances.Even if he got hurt, he wouldn't allow himself to get so seriously injured.Almost his entire back was wounded, so there could only be one explanation.He was shielding someone.Who would be the woman he was protecting un
The events tonight had happened too suddenly, and Brent was busy cleaning up as well.Kelvin was the only person accompanying Olivia right now.When she was in the car just now, she had taken off her down jacket. She was only wearing a thin sweater now.There weren't any heaters in the corridor. The cold wind picked up, making her feel colder.Olivia thought of that night a few years ago. She had stood there, waiting for Ethan in the cold wind as well.Kelvin wasn't too considerate. He only felt that Olivia looked a little pitiful from behind.The medical staff hurrying over seemed to be targeting her on purpose. "Step aside. Please don't stand in our way."It wasn't a bustling time at all. They simply didn't like her.If Ethan wasn't trying to save her, he wouldn't have suffered such severe injuries.In their eyes, Olivia was just a burden to Ethan.Kelvin was a lowly figure, and even he had to make sure he didn't piss anyone off. Many doctors in the army hospital had been
After an operation that went on for hours, all the glass shards on Ethan's body were removed.For the moment, Ethan could only lie on his stomach.If a normal person suffered such injuries, they would get anesthesia. But Ethan painstakingly endured it.Those few hours were like hell to him.He had to constantly be awake so that he could see Olivia right away.Krystal walked up to him first. "Are you okay, Sova?"Ethan placed his chin on his crossed hands. He had already used up his energy, and he constantly had cold sweat because of his pain.He was already exhausted, but after the door opened, he still perked up and looked at the door.The first person he saw wasn't Krystal but Olivia instead.Ignoring Krystal's greeting, he said weakly, "Liv."It was only then that Olivia slowly walked over to him. Ethan reached out a hand, and Olivia held it.His palm was no longer dry. There was still sweat on it."I promised you that I would leave the operating room alive."With tha
Originally, Olivia thought that it wouldn't be good for her image.But then, she thought more about it. People were always prejudiced, and she had already left a bad impression on everyone.Even if she stood and kept watch over Ethan today, the people who looked down on her would continue to do so.So, why should she worry about other people's gazes?Her body was already weak enough. She had also been standing for a long time, so her calves were turning sore.If she was half-sprawled on the bed, it would be torture for her waist and back."Sure, go ahead."Taking off her socks and shoes, Olivia got onto the bed. When Krystal saw that, she was extremely pissed."Y-You shameless woman! What are you doing?"Olivia blinked, saying with an innocent look, "As you can see, the wench is tired and needs to rest.""How can you sleep in the same bed as him?" Krystal was so frustrated that she almost stomped her feet.Olivia was even more exasperated now. "I didn't want to, but he refus
They didn't manage to find the mastermind from before. But now, a new enemy had shown up. Also, their style was completely different from the person before.Olivia couldn't help but wonder if she had to hide under someone else's protection all her life.She recalled Mona's death and memories of other people getting hurt just to save her.That cruel rainy night had already turned into a shadow that forever loomed over Olivia's heart.If she didn't get stronger, she might not be lucky enough to survive the next hit.She thought about it for a long time. When it was almost dawn, and Ethan's vitals seemed to be stable, Olivia finally closed her eyes and rested for a while.The room was eerily quiet. It was only then that Krystal had a chance to peer at Ethan's face.When he was carrying out missions in the past, he would always wear a mask. No one knew his true appearance. And even if Krystal wanted to see it, she couldn't.At that moment, she envied Olivia a lot. Olivia co
