Chapter 622: Chapter 622: Go to the Hospital to See Him
Adam Howard felt Daniel Marshall’s forehead. It was really hot!
Instantly, Adam frowned, “He stayed out in the rain all night?”
“That’s right. No one could persuade him to come in. That woman, Olivia, ignored him and left him out there. Her attitude when she left this morning… so cold and unfeeling! I wanted to tell her the truth, but he wouldn’t let me.”
“He’s just trying to protect the people he cares about. It’s a tough situation. Then again, he brought it upon himself. He’s suffering now, but Olivia also endured the same kind of suffering. The pain is equal.”
The color drained from Simon Howard’s face, a hint of resentment flickering in his eyes, “Is this how it’s always going to be?”
After a moment, Adam responded: “Take a picture of Daniel lying in the hospital bed and send it to Valerie Howard. Tell her that Daniel has a high fever and has fainted. The doctor says there’s a risk of pneumonia.”
“Will that work?”
Adam’s eyes glittered with a sharp light, and a deep, inscrutable expression crossed his handsome face, “Knowing Valerie’s character, she’ll definitely tell Olivia.
No matter what Olivia’s reaction is, even if she has a heart of stone, knowing about this is better than not knowing at all. It’s like taking a chance. If we’re lucky, and she softens, then things might take a turn for the better!”
“After all, you’re smarter than me, so I’ll listen to you.”
Immediately, Simon snapped a picture of Daniel and sent it to Valerie. He also repeated what Adam had said.
After a while, Valerie didn’t respond or ask about Daniel’s health.
Simon seemed torn and slightly confused, “Do you think Valerie will really tell her? She adores Olivia. She’s on Olivia’s side, she probably won’t give us the time of day.”
Adam rolled his eyes, looking unimpressed, “Trust me, no response is good news. Also, we need to keep Daniel’s hospitalization a secret, so nobody finds any excuse to create trouble.”
Simon: “I know. I’ve taken care of it. The hospital won’t leak any information.”
…
Valerie arrived and sat next to Olivia, immediately showing her the photos and messages her brother had sent.
“It looks very serious, not like he’s faking it. Olivia, should we go to the hospital to see him?”
Olivia recognized the setting, it was a VIP room at ResilientCare Hospital.
If Daniel really had been in the rain for so long, him being sick would be normal.
Severe cold could potentially lead to myocarditis or pneumonia.
Olivia’s gorgeous face showed no signs of emotion, leaving one guessing what she was thinking. However, a fleeting, almost imperceptible wave of emotion crossed her eyes.
“Your brother is taking care of him at the hospital and they have renowned doctors and a strong team on standby. He should be fine. There’s no need to worry.”
Valerie gawked in surprise, “Olivia, are you sure you’re not going?”
Olivia spoke with serene composure, “I’m too busy, and with so many people taking care of him, I’m not really needed.”
“Should … should I send my brother a reply, or say something?”
“Whatever you want!”
Hesitating for a moment, Valerie typed a few words and sent a message.
As soon as the notification sounded, Simon immediately checked his WeChat.
“[Wish him a speedy recovery!]”
Immediately, Simon showed Adam the screen of his phone, “Can you figure out what she means?”
Adam’s handsome face bore a devil-may-care smile, “Olivia already knows.”
“That’s it? She isn’t worried about her man’s life in the slightest?” Simon’s face turned sour, a hint of anger flaring up.
Adam smirked and said, “Haste makes waste, you need to calm down!”
