"She did, but that was on the condition that Krystal didn't apologize. Krystal did apologize to Madam Wendy."Brent shook his head. "Do you think that it was a sincere apology?""I don't think so. If it really is Krystal's fault, what should we do?"Brent sighed. "She should take the responsibility herself. Tell her to apologize to Madam Wendy sincerely."He entered the room where the weak Ethan was resting. Ethan didn't know what happened out there.Brent greeted him as always when he entered the room, "Mr. Miller, it's me.""I know." Ethan could recognize the duo's footsteps. He wasn't as weak as Brent thought."How are you feeling today?" Ethan closed his eyes, frowning. "Bad. The headache is killing me."The marks on his face became lighter. He should be getting better because most of the poison was disposed of. Brent wondered, "Why is Mr. Miller's complexion looking bad?""Hold on. I'll call the doctor over.""Okay."Brent couldn't care less about Krystal's incident as he ran to
Chapter 1000
Ethan recalled the details of the dream involving Olivia. An idea flashed across his mind; if that wasn't a dream, it meant it happened in real life.In other words, the woman before him was Olivia!That sheer thought excited him.Meanwhile, Olivia was listening to his heartbeat with a stethoscope.She frowned while murmuring, "Why is his heartbeat so fast?"She covered the blanket over him and sat on the chair. Then, she took one of his arms. "Breathe normally. I'm going to feel your pulse."She had no clue that Ethan was in ecstasy.He began connecting all of the clues about why this famous doctor was able to rescue him in time unconditionally.She even sacrificed three night's sleep to give him medicine.The shriek he heard when he caught her was clearly Olivia's voice. He didn't mishear it!Then, why did he have such a dream?Perhaps she resorted to that method to check his body because he refused to let her check.The blurry image of a little girl seeped into his m

In the past, Ethan and Olivia would intertwine their fingers whenever they were in the heat of the moment.A person could change his face with a mask, face a change in the aura, and fake the glint in his gaze through practice.However, they could never change the size of their hands.How could Ethan forget about the feeling of holding Olivia's hand when he had held it so many times?Her hand fit in his so perfectly.Unlike the smooth skin before this, her hands grew calluses. She had it rough for the past few years.She suddenly shook his hand off.Guilt tinged his expression. "Sorry for crossing the line. I was thinking about my ex-wife."She stared at his face, realizing that there was no huge change in his expression. Even his eyes lost their sparks.She reckoned that it was simply her being paranoid. "It's alright.""What's happening to me?""It could be a side effect because of the heavy medicine dosage. I'll reduce the dosage from today onward and make new medicines.

Grabbing Ethan's hand, Olivia checked his wound only to realize that there was a long line of slits adorning it."I'm fine. I get hurt often. It's nothing." Unbothered, he withdrew his hand."Give me a second." She quickly brought a medical kit over to stop the bleeding. "Alright. Make sure the wound stays away from water these two days. I'll help you to the bed.""It's alright. You don't have to." He shoved her away before dragging his body toward the bed.Although he wanted to stay close to her, she was too smart for him to do that. It would take a single mistake for her to find out about it. Hence, he could only control his impulsive thoughts by pretending that they were strangers and distancing himself from her.Frowning, Olivia said, "There's no man or woman here but a doctor and a patient. If you insist on distancing yourself from me, I won't care about the poison in your body anymore."Ethan hung his head low. "Sorry."She brought over another bowl of porridge. "If yo
Chapter 1003
Ethan perceived Krystal as a younger sister. He tried his best to look after her whenever he could.He saved her by chance that year, but she ended up pestering him!In the past, she insisted on going with him for his missions. He assumed that the young lady yearned for real-life experience to prepare herself for promotion.On top of that, she indeed donated her blood to him during emergencies. Thus, he intended to help her out.As she grew older, her feelings for him became more apparent. That was why he told her that he was married, and she stopped pestering him for a few years.However, she became eager in his pursuit again ever since the mind-blowing news of his divorce.No matter how Ethan rejected Krystal, she tagged along.His patience slowly ran thin at her attempts. Now, he wouldn't care about their mentor-mentee relationship anymore.Brent quickly said, "Mr. Miller, she's seriously ill. If we don't have her treated immediately and send her back instead, if the super

Before Ethan entered the cave, he told Brent, "You heard it, didn't you? I have to stay for the detox. "Bring some men with you and handle the chaos out there. Since there's nothing serious about Krystal, send her back too."The corner of Brent's lips twitched at how Ethan abandoned his brothers the moment he found Olivia. Ethan was trying to drive them away so that he could spend time alone with her."Okay, Mr. Miller. Cyril shall stay as the messenger."There was no network in the village. The villagers used pigeons to pass letters to keep in touch with people."Okay. Go ahead. Do not tell anyone about my whereabouts.""Got it."In the name of work matters, Ethan made sure others wouldn't disturb his moment of reunion with Olivia.Nevertheless, it would really be good news if the couple could reconcile.The sensible Brent left the area instantly.When Olivia was boiling the water, she realized that she had driven the others away too quickly.Now that Brent was gone, who was going t

Olivia's heart skipped a beat.Ethan added, "Had it not been for you, I would've lost my life. "You're my savior, and I'm genuinely grateful to you. Once I recover, I will surely repay this favor."For some reason, she imagined a story of a hero saving a maiden in distress, in which the maiden would repay the favor by marrying the hero.Olivia and Ethan had divorced years ago, and they had drawn the line that they wouldn't intervene in each other's lives anymore.Yet, an ambiguous emotion stirred in her at the idea of him marrying another woman.Perhaps it was her unwillingness to accept her defeat.Ethan was the man she had loved since her school days. She had imagined building a big family and growing old with him countless times.During their newlywed days, her eyes were always on him as he owned all of her heart. At that time, she had never thought that their marriage would fail one day and that someone else would stand by his side.Still, reality would always hit at the most une

Olivia tied the belt into a knot with quick movements. "Done." Then, she pulled it to lead him to the animal's skin so that he could lie down. "Rest up. You can eat later to replenish."Judging from how the cave was filled with necessities, he figured that she frequently lived here.He thought, "Did she recover from her illness here? How did she raise the kid alone all this time?"There were so many questions in his head, but he didn't dare to rush his plans. One day, the mystery would be solved.Not long after he lay down, he heard the sound of a bell ringing.He held his breath. It was Willow!Although he didn't know her birthdate yet, he had already seen her as his daughter.He didn't move, and the sound of the bell got louder and louder. In the end, it stopped right next to him.Then, she caressed his face.His heart raced as he thought, "She already knows that I'm her father, right?"Ethan didn't want to interrupt such a wonderful moment. Soon, Willow withdrew he
