Complicated feelings bubbled up within Olivia when she looked at Avery. She felt close to him since the first time they met.
Back then, she had been ravaged by her illness, but she got better.
Avery was still struggling with his illness. Olivia felt an inexplicable sadness for him.
His illness can't be cured with surgery. He also needed a new kidney. He had done surgery before, but the effects were underwhelming.
Since even Olivia couldn't cure him, Louis was his only hope.
Avery was calm. He had already come to terms with his situation.
"I hope so."
"Mr. Fordham, do you have a phone on you? I left in a hurry and didn't bring my phone. I want to call my family."
Avery handed her his phone. "Here."
"Thanks."
Meanwhile, Ethan had just realized that Olivia had been taken by Louis. He was looking everywhere for leads on him. Then, his phone rang.
He was stunned when he looked at the caller ID. It was a call from Avery.
The two of them barely knew each other and hadn't been in contact for years.
There weren't any projects they were working on together. Why would he be calling?
A familiar voice came from over the phone. "It's me."
Ethan was finally able to calm down. "Liv, is that you? Are you okay? Did Louis…"
"No. He's my mentor. He wouldn't hurt me."
Olivia didn't want him to worry. Nor did she want him to make Louis his enemy.
Louis was unhinged, but he was a great medical genius. Other than his cyborg transformation plan, he came up with many cures and saved many lives.
If Ethan destroyed Louis and his lab, it would also destroy the hope of countless patients.
Also, Louis was a master of machinery. There were a lot of robots in his base. Even if Ethan managed to save her, it would be at a hefty price.
Olivia wanted to handle this situation herself, so she didn't tell him the truth.
