Chapter 370
Olivia returned to the hospital in a hurry. Chloe had been taken away for emergency treatment. Chris stood listlessly in front of the operating room’s door.
Olivia was still holding the various bags of food. She asked, “What’s going on, Mr. Carlton? She looked fine when I left. She even told me she wanted to eat matzo ball soup. Why is she in there?”
Chris looked at the bags Olivia was carrying and choked. “She… She suddenly started to bleed a lot.”
Olivia quickly put everything down and held his hand. Chris’ hands were rough. Calluses covered his palms and knuckles. A brave man like him was shivering in fright.
Olivia comforted him, saying, “Mom will be fine, Mr. Carlton. You need to pull yourself together.”
Fear flashed in Chris’ eyes. He shook his head frantically. “It’s different this time. You didn’t see how much blood was flowing. It’s very likely that she might not survive this.”
Olivia furrowed her brows. She was a medical student. She knew something was fishy.
“Did anyone visit mom after I left? It’s weird because she wasn’t terminal when the leukemia was diagnosed. She has been hospitalized since then. Although her condition would worsen over time, it wouldn’t suddenly worsen to such a degree without reason.”
“What do you mean, Olivia?”
Olivia saw that Chris had calmed down, so she started to analyze the possibilities.
“Mr. Carlton, my dad was hospitalized six months ago. His health was getting better. All aspects of his condition had stabilized.
“In the time it took the caregiver to buy him breakfast, he was rushed to the emergency room. His life was saved, but he became comatose.”
Olivia paused for a while, then continued, “Initially, I thought it was just his condition becoming worse. But then, many things happened, and I realized that someone plotted
everything-from his traffic accident to his current state. The same goes for my kidnapping.”
“So
you think whatever is happening to Chloe is caused by someone?”
“It’s a possibility.”
