Chapter 19
In the Intensive Care Unit.
Olivia was lying in bed quietly with the ventilator
connected to her. Her hands were unable to take in any injections so the nurse could only place the needle on her
arm.
Her thighs, knees, and abdomen were covered with
bandages, if she had more injuries, she would have been wrapped fully like a mummy.
Her face was as pale as paper, if the ECG machine was not beeping, no one would know that this was a living person.
John stood by her bedside, frowning and he said with a hoarse voice, “Olivia Larson, don’t die! I will never allow you to die!”
She would only be his woman, be it dead or alive.
As long as he was alive, he would never give her away to anyone else!
He held her chilly and skinny hand while sitting by the bedside, a trace of heartache flashed through his eyes.
Zac looked at his pretentious look and could not help but frown. “John Freeman, get out. I assume she won’t want to see you when she wakes.”
Hearing such, John raised his head and glared at him coldly. “You’re hiding something, aren’t you?”
It was obvious that the doctor wanted to say something earlier, but Zac interrupted him first.
“The doctor said that Olivia has…’
However, he had no idea what kind of illness Olivia could
have.
Her body had always been strong and healthy, unlike Dorothy who could fall sick from the slightest thing.
“You don’t need to know.”
John’s eyes were sharp, and his whole body exuded an icy cold aura, all of which showed his anger.
“Zac Quinton, tell me.”
Zac took a glance at Olivia in bed and remembered that he. promised her to keep it a secret.
However, he knew John’s temper and that he would never give up until he got his answer.
“Olivia has pneumonia and she will get a fever easily if she gets caught in the rain which will lead her to face breathing difficulties.”
John was stunned. ‘I didn’t know that she has pneumonia?’
Zac added, “The doctor mentioned it the previous time,
you can ask for the report if you don’t believe it.”
