Olivia said calmly, "Mr. Heath, I don't want to seem rude, but Mr. Heath is no longer in a critical condition. He just needs some time and care. His body would eventually recover.
"My presence wouldn't be needed. Besides, your sister doesn't want me around. I don't want to be the source of strife in your family."
Since Linus visited her in person, he probably didn't just want her to treat Mason.
He wanted a great doctor like her close by so she would be able to take care of any emergencies that might arise.
A talent like her had to be kept close by.
"We've already been through that. My sister has been spoiled by our family. The things she said and did to you were very rude.
"I apologize in her stead. I guarantee that it won't happen again."
"Since you said that, I can get on board. But I have a few conditions.
"The first one is that I have some patients in other places, too. You can't restrict my freedom."
"Naturally. But since you would be working for my father, you have to be aware of some things even if we don't fully restrict your freedom.
"Of course, that's up for discussion. Is there anything else?"
"I want to join the medical team and do research with them. Is that okay?"
"That's perfectly fine. It's good that you have that drive to improve.
"We'll provide you with all the best resources to study medicine, but you need to acquire approval in advance if you want to leave the country."
Olivia mentioned several more conditions, which Linus happily agreed to.
"Alright, I don't have any other issues."
Linus reached out. "Then, I hope we have a fruitful relationship."
They shook hands briefly.
Linus' hand had more calluses than Ethan's. It was very rough.
On the other hand, Linus didn't expect Olivia's hand to be so smooth, even though she was a doctor.
Although their hands only touched for an instant, it was enough to surprise him.
