Logan didn't return for the entire morning.
Alicia asked about him a few times, and Olivia always found an excuse to appease her.
However, Logan ended up being away for a whole day.
Every time Olivia asked Joshua about it, he avoided the question.
Olivia was a little worried as well.
No matter how strong the drug was, its effects shouldn't have persisted for so long.
Early the next morning, Joshua was about to leave when Olivia stopped him.
"Joshua, what exactly happened to Logan?"
Her attitude made it clear that if he didn't give her an explanation, she wouldn't let him leave.
Joshua sighed.
"Logan fell sick."
"Sick?"
Olivia never expected this outcome.
After all, he usually looked quite healthy.
"I guess I'll come clean, then.The effects of the drug were too strong that night, so Logan got another room for fear that he might affect you.He soaked himself in ice water for a whole night.
"The temperature difference between day and night is quite huge.Bathing in cold weather in the middle of the night was bad enough, but he even added ice to the bathtub.Also..."
Olivia was shocked that he didn't get a woman to deal with the problem.
"Also what?"
"The doctor said that the best way to solve it was to get a woman, but he refused.
He forced the doctor to give him extra doses of sedatives.
He was also freezing for the whole night.
"His body isn't made of steel, after all.No one can withstand that."
When Olivia heard all that, she had a complicated feeling in her heart.
"Is he alright now?"
"To be honest, no.He had a fever for the entirety of last night.Logan feared that you would get worried, and he didn't want you to get infected either.So, he arranged for me to deliver your meals."
Biting her lip, Olivia asked in a small voice, "Can go and visit him?"
"I don't think you should.Logan insisted that you don't leave the room.Just hang in there for another ten days or so, and we'll arrive.His illness isn't anything serious."
"Alright, thanks."
"Please don't say that, Ms.Fordham.Logan saved my life, and he told me to take good care of you two.I'm just carrying out my duties.I won't disturb you anymore, then."
After closing the door, Olivia felt something heavy in her heart.She couldn't quite describe that feeling.
This was Logan's private matter, and she wasn't dating him.
