It was already evening when Olivia arrived at the Si residence.
The Si Family had prepared dinner, but no one was in the mood to eat it.
After multiple attempts to contact Zoey, they finally learned from Xavier that the miracle doctor, Zoey, would probably show up at their house tonight.
And so, the Si Family waited for Olivia to come over, but there was no sight of her.
Of course, the reason why they wanted Olivia to come over was not because they were really worried about whether Dennis lived or died.
Instead, they were concerned about their fates that were in Dennis' control.
If Dennis died, most of The Si Family's assets would be given to Xavier, which would be like death to the rest of the Si Family.
So, as soon as Olivia arrived at the entrance, the housekeeper, who had been looking out, greeted her warmly and brought her to the dining table.
After being anxious for two to three days, the Si Family members finally calmed down upon laying eyes on Olivia.
One by one, they invited Olivia to sit down and enthusiastically served her tea, water, rice and the dishes for fear of remissing her.
Olivia, on the other hand, didn't rain on their parade. She sat down silently and tucked into the dinner.
Even though Zachary, Yelena, and Michelle used to treat Olivia as a monster, they now treated her like a goddess that even Xavier couldn't get a chance to serve the dishes to Olivia.
Olivia was slightly annoyed by them as she voiced casually, "Mr. Zachary, Ms. Yelena, Ms. Michelle, there's no need to be so courteous. I can eat by myself."
There was an evident impatience in her voice.
The siblings immediately halted in their actions. Smiles were plastered on their faces as they tried to appease Olivia, but no one dared to make another.
Xavier wasn't close with the Si Family members, but he knew they always acted in an arrogant and overbearing manner.
This was the first time he had ever seen them being put in their place in such a way.
A smile flashed across his devilishly handsome face. Xavier picked up some vegetables and placed them in Olivia's bowl. "Did you sleep well during the past two days?"
Olivia's expression relaxed, and she nodded with satisfaction. "Yeah. I did."
Living in that refreshing and comfortable room with the sound of birds chirping and the scent of fresh flowers, coupled with the comfortable bedding and environment, it went without saying that Olivia had rested well.
She had to applaud Xavier because he knew what was life's pleasure, and he definitely knew how to enjoy them.
Although the place where he lived looked basic, it was good enough to make the guest feel comfortable.
And that suited Olivia's liking perfectly.
She mused, "He looks exhausted compared to the last two days. I'm sure he feels pressured staying in the Si residence."
After eating and drinking, Zachary warmly invited Olivia to the living room for a tea session that was served together with fruits.
Olivia waved her hand dismissively. "Thank you, Mr. Zachary, for your kindness, but there's no need. It's more important for me to look at old Mr. Si's condition."
Before Olivia left, she specifically told Xavier to arrange for more people to keep an eye on Dennis. However, she still discovered a problem when she checked on Dennis.
She scanned the crowd with her sharp eyes and saw everyone looking at her nervously, except one with his head lowered. There was something amiss about his expression.
Olivia and Xavier exchanged glances, and they both saw an understanding look in each other's eyes.
Then, Olivia gave Dennis a pill. She didn't say much except to tell the Si Family calmly that Dennis' body was functioning as normal.
The poisonous insect in his body had been around for far too long, so they should continue to bathe him in the medicinal concoction, and Dennis should continue consuming his medicine.
Many toxins had been eliminated from his body, and although he might still puke blood in the future, the situation wouldn't be as dire as before.
Someone in the group frowned and peered at Olivia when she said Dennis was fine.
Olivia didn't take the person seriously as she continued speaking.
It wasn't until she was done that Zachary said, "Dr. Xue, when will my dad regain consciousness?"
