Chapter 82
“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 needle, the rest of the back of his hand was just loose, sagging skin.
It looked nothing like the hand that had held hers when they’d walked home last time.
Olivia leaned against him and wept uncontrollably. She said in a choked voice, “Dad, wake up and look at me, won’t you…
No matter what he’d done to other people, he’d never mistreated her. Olivia couldn’t just stand by and watch him suffer like
this.
A thought popped up in her mind.
The day she’d tried to jump off, Ethan had said that he could find Leo. Based on his wide network of connections and wealth, it wasn’t surprising that he was capable of finding Leo.
If she hadn’t been on the brink of death, Ethan would never have told her.
She knew how much Ethan hated her and her father, but she had no other way of saving Jeff. She’d never thought that she’d have to go and beg Ethan so soon after she’d just decided to cut ties with him two days ago.
After drying her tears and making sure Jeff was alright, Olivia asked Brent about Ethan’s whereabouts. She then took a taxi to
Silver.
In the decadent club, scantily dressed female dancers moved around seductively. In every corner, men and women kissed scandalously, and loud voices came from the booths.
However, the fun and excitement had nothing to do with Olivia. She walked quickly toward a private room deeper inside the
club.
Ethan usually didn’t like places like this and would choose a quiet spot even for a gathering with friends. Brent opened the door to the private room for her.
The luxurious private room could accommodate more than a hundred people. Even with so many men and women inside, Olivia still spotted Ethan among the crowd at first glance.
He was leaning against a leather armchair with his eyes shut. He looked very out of place in the rowdy room. With his eyes closed and his sharp gaze hidden, he looked harmless.
