Chapter 290
The next morning.
When Zac found Olivia, he found her pale and her eyes red and swollen. You could tell she had been crying all night.
“Liv, what’s wrong?” He frowned slightly.
Olivia shook her head and coughed. “Nothing. Maybe I caught a cold last night.”
“Dr. Zucker is here and will give you a preliminary examination today. Are you okay? We can take a rain check if you’re not okay.”
“Never mind. Let’s do it today.” Olivia squeezed a smile. “The famous Dr. Zucker wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you.”
Zac looked at Olivia for a long time before nodding. “Then I’ll take you there now.”
After spending so much time together, he knew it was useless to ask her what she did not want to talk about-just like now.
However, what could make her cry all night?
The answer seemed obvious, but Zac did not like it and felt a vague pain in his heart.
After Olivia put on her jacket, Zac took her to the examination room.
Dr. Zucker had been waiting in the hallway. When he saw them, he came over with a
smile. “Zac, Ms. Larson.”
“Hello, Dr. Zucker.” Olivia nodded slightly.
Just then, Zac’s phone rang. Hearing what the caller said, his face was dark as he said coldly, “Got it.”
Then he pulled Dr. Zucker aside, gave him some instructions, and went back to Olivia, softly saying, “Liv, I have a few things to take care of. Please cooperate with the examination with Dr. Zucker. I’ll be right back.”
Olivia had never heard Zac sound so cold. She knew it must be serious, so she
nodded. “Okay, it’s alright. I’ll leave you to it.”
Zac was worried but had no choice but to leave.
“Ms. Larson.” Dr. Zucker opened the door. “This way.”
“Thank you.”
