“Olivia, everything will be fine. The little fellow will be fine. It’s all my fault. If only I hadn’t lost my temper and terminated the contract with Summer, then you wouldn’t have had to take up the photoshoot for the magazine cover just to stand up for me and ended up being taken advantage of.”
Olivia’s tears suddenly streamed down her face. “I just want North to be fine. I don’t care about anything else.” Meanwhile, Kate held Olivia in her arms and patted her back gently. “Don’t worry. Our baby’s so smart and brave, so he’ll definitely be alright. Don’t worry.”
At that moment, Eugene felt as if his heart was clenched tightly in someone’s hands, and it pained him to the point where he felt as if he was about to lose his breath.
Olivia was just putting on a tough front and she didn’t shed a single tear the whole time she was in front of him. He realized that she was worried that he would blame himself. However, the more she behaved that way, the worse he felt. He couldn’t help himself and he walked toward her unconsciously, wanting to hug her.
Kate was quite perceptive and she saw him approach, so she willingly took a step backward and let go of Olivia. “Alright there. Everything will be fine.”
At that moment, Eugene reached out his long arms and instantly took her into his embrace. He held her tightly and spoke in a hoarse voice. I’m sorry, Olivia.” Olivia didn’t say a word but she leaned forward and stayed in his arms.
Eugene kissed her on the forehead, a pained look on his face. “Once North is out of the woods, I’ll share something with you.” Olivia was slightly curious as to what he had to say, but she didn’t have the mood to find out at the moment.
Just then, Kate was in solemn spirits too and she kept her eyes on the tightly shut operation theater doors. Suddenly, she heard the frantic thud of footsteps, and she instinctively turned to look in the direction of the noise. At a glance, she saw Nathan, who was running in their direction, and he had an anxious look on his face as he rushed forward. His right arm was still in a cast and it was hanging loosely by his neck. He looked quite discomposed.
Instantly, she furrowed her brows. His arm… He must have gotten hurt that day after saving me and yet, he said he was fine. If he was fine, he wouldn’t have his arm in a cast!
She focused her eyes on him and her heartache was evident from the look in her eyes. At that point, the man saw Kate too and he naturally slowed down. He walked toward their side before asking, “How’s North doing?”
