Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81

Olivia said gratefully, “Thank you, Calvin.”

“Don’t thank me. It was our fault anyway. If word about this spreads, our hospital’s reputation would be ruined.”

Olivia replied, “Someone was targeting me, so it has nothing to do with the hospital. I won’t tell a soul. I hope that you can keep this a secret too. Don’t even tell Chris. I don’t want to alert anyone.”

Calvin nodded in understanding. “Let’s put this behind us for now. I suggest that you do another checkup. I’ll personally run the tests this time. If there’s any problem, we can start solving it earlier too.”

Olivia smiled and said, “It’s no big deal. Don’t worry.”

“Okay then. These machines are radioactive, so you shouldn’t be exposed to them too frequently in such a short period of time. If you want to have another checkup in a few months, then you can contact me any time.”

“Sure.”

Calvin smiled warmly and said, “You’re well enough to be discharged now. I’ve already asked someone to deal with the procedures. By the way, let’s exchange phone numbers.”

Olivia added his number to her contacts on WhatsApp.

Calvin walked her out of the hospital and handed her the discharge documents he’d prepared. Then, they bid each other. goodbye. After Everly teased her and Calvin again, they finally left.

In the car, Olivia couldn’t stop thinking about the incident.

It definitely involved an insider at the hospital. The person couldn’t have executed his plan so flawlessly unless he was familiar with the ins and outs of the place.

Nevertheless, they didn’t have solid evidence. Since Calvin didn’t want to make a big fuss about it for the sake of the hospital’s reputation, he couldn’t investigate every department either.

There were more than a thousand employees at the hospital, including all the doctors, nurses, housemen, and part–timers combined. How was he supposed to investigate all of them?

The only clue he was left with was the surveillance footage. If it could be restored, then they would be able to catch the person who’d tampered with her report.

Olivia pinched the bridge of her nose, clearly exhausted.

Everly, who’d been talking for a long time without getting an answer, couldn’t stop herself from tapping Olivia’s shoulder.

“What’s the matter? Are you thinking about that douchebag again?” she asked.

Olivia recalled the furious look in Ethan’s eyes before he’d left. Their relationship was ruined, and all she prayed for now was to have nothing to do with him ever again.

“No,” she answered. She looked at the scenery passing by outside the window, wondering when Calvin would find an answer.

However, just after two days of rest, she received a call from the hospital.

“Ms. Fordham, Mr. Fordham’s in critical condition. His heart rate suddenly declined, and his breathing is getting weaker. We’ve just taken him for emergency treatment. Please come as soon as possible.”

In the hospital corridor, Olivia waited outside the operating theater anxiously while a nurse tried her best to comfort her.

“Ms. Fordham, you have to be prepared for the worst. Judging by Mr. Fordham’s condition, he might not..

Olivia dug her nails into her palm and said hoarsely, “I know.”

The nurse sighed and said helplessly, “I know it’s really been hard for you.”

As she looked at the young woman, who was around the same age as her own daughter, the nurse couldn’t help but feel sorry

that Olivia had to carry such a heavy weight on her shoulders at such a young age.

The nurse knew that Olivia was married, but she’d never seen her husband around. Olivia was always waiting out here alone. Her thin frame only increased the nurse’s concern for her.

The doors of the operating theater opened, and Olivia rushed forward at once.
