Chapter 75


    Ethan snickered as he took Olivia by the wrist and scooped her into his arms. He was a little rough with


    her because of his anger, and he pinned her legs against his body with his arms.


    She tried to free herself but withdrew her hands when her fingers identally brushed against his


    neck. The warmth of his body lingered on her fingertips.


    “Ethan, let go of me.” She struggled with all her might, but it was futile.


    Giving up, she stayed in his arms as he walked through the snow–linen path. The snow crunched


    underneath his boots during the walk to her room. He did not say a word, letting the silence hang over


    them.


    The heating in the room warmed up her freezing body. Unaware of the events, Connor stumbled


    toward her as though he wanted a hug


    She reflexively reached out to hug him when she saw the tears and snot on his face. However, Ethan


    lifted the poor kid by the cor and instructed his men icily, “Send Connor home.”


    “Got it.” Brent was relieved when he confirmed that Olivia was unhurt.


    Chris came by and performed a checkup before hooking her to an IV drip. He advised her, “Your white


    blood cell count is very low. Please do not overexert your body. Or else, no one can save your life the


    next time.”


    She merely grunted as she stared emptily at the ceiling like a ragdoll. Now that Ethan had trapped her


    and taken away chance at dying, what more could she do?


    “Yeah. I understood.”


    “You’d better.” Ethan finally looked away from her and strode out of her room.

    Chris cautiously followed the hostile Ethan out and almost bumped into him when Ethan abruptly


    stopped in his tracks.


    Ethan turned around with a scowl and hissed, “Find out the reason behind her low white blood cell


    count.”


    He sensed that something was off from the chain of events earlier. Olivia, who had always been fit, had


    suffered from a low white blood cell count after a fever. Moreover, she jumped from the seventh floor


    without hesitation.


    When he recalled her feeble condition and fainting spells, he believed that the issue was more


    complicated than it seemed.


    Chris nodded. “Sure, Mr. Miller. We’ll get her a full checkup tomorrow. You don’t have to worry too


    much. She hasn’t done any checkups in thest two years, but there’s a low chance of her developing


    chronic diseases based on her past health records.”


    “That better be it.”


    Chris gave Ethan a respectful nod when thetter left the hospital. He was careful not to further anger


    Ethan at such a sensitive time. Then, he rushed back to his office, where he printed the list of checkups


    that Olivia had to undergo.

    That night, Olivia’s fever finally went away. A nurse came in early in the morning to wake her up. “Ms.


    Fordham, it’s time for a checkup.”


    That immediately pulled her out of her groggy state. “What?”


    The nurse patiently exined, “Ms. Fordham, you must undergo some advanced checkups.” That sent


    a chill down her spine. She wondered if Ethan had picked up any clues on her condition.
