Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman’s Indifferent Sinner Wife Chapter 899

Olivia paused and did not look back. “Let’s talk about it some other time.” “Liv.”

Zac clutched the arm of his wheelchair, his palms full of cold sweat.

He longed for her to stay and be the same as before.

However…

“Zac, didn’t you only tell me Fabian is divorcing Dorothy?”

Olivia looked back at him. “Quinton Group’s stock price will plummet if you both get divorced. It’ll be a mess even if you become the CEO. You won’t have any authority. Wait till you’re settled. Don’t worry about it.”

“Liv, it really isn’t what you think. I didn’t force Jess to die.”

Olivia pressed her lips together and smiled a little helplessly. “Zac, even if Jess offered to die for me, I couldn’t accept it.’

She knew that everything Zac had done was for her.

However, she could not move on because it was for her.

Of course, she was more relieved to be proactive than passive.

At least Zac was still the kind Zac and not a bloodthirsty monster.

“Liv, is there really no going back… between us?”

Zac hesitated for a long time before asking eventually.

Olivia looked away from him and was silent for a long while. “Why don’t we talk sometime after all this is over? I’m not in the mood… with Lyla’s current condition.’

“Got it. It was rude of me.”

With that said, Zac caught up with her in his wheelchair. “Can… Can I see Lyla?”

“Yeah, of course, but she hasn’t woken up. I don’t think she’ll wake up today. II

“It’s alright. I just want to see her. It’s been a long time.”

Olivia did not answer him. She opened the door and headed upstairs.

One led the other. Each immersed in their thoughts.

Ken arranged for the two children to be in the same ward so that it was convenient for them to look after them.

However, Fred was still next door, so Olivia still had to run here and there.

Besides, Olivia was already exhausted, so she was sleepy even before her shift.

“Miss.”

In a daze, Olivia heard someone calling her. She immediately got up in shock. Without even seeing who the person was, she stumbled out of the room. “Is Lyla awake? I’ll get the doctor. Wait…”

“Miss!”

Mrs. Simmons held her back and helped her fix her clothes with some distress. “Miss, look at how haggard you are. Hurry back to rest. I’ll keep watch tonight.”

“No.”

Olivia snapped back to herself and patted her head to force herself to wake up.

“Mrs. Simmons, you’re not in good health. How can you keep watch?”

“What about you? Do you see how much weight you’ve lost? It pains me to see you go to the hospital everyday to take care of others instead of yourself.’

Mrs. Simmons’s eyes reddened as she spoke. She put the food containers on the table. “If nothing else, have some food first, Miss. I made you pudding and mushroom soup. Have some.”

“Okay, sure. Eat with me.’

Olivia also knew Mrs. Simmons was worried about her, so she obediently sat down to eat the whole thing instead of refusing.

No sooner had she opened the food containers than there was a voice at the door. “Boss, I’m here for my shift.”

She froze when she saw Harry. “Why are you here? Didn’t we agree to change shifts at 12 AM?”

Harry scratched his head sheepishly. “I don’t have to go to the bar today. I also didn’t have anything else to do, so I thought I’d come over earlier so you could go home earlier and get some rest.”

Harry reached up and felt Olivia’s forehead. ‘Boss, you’re so exhausted that you’re running a fever. Go home.”

Olivia froze, stunned by Harry’s actions.
