Chapter 18
Then again, he was thinking what would he do if Olivia actually died?
'I have been driving all my hatred and resentment onto Olivia, who should I hate if she's dead?
'Who should I vent on when I need to?'
Suddenly, a huge force dragged him up from the chair and pushed him against the wall.
"Johnny, what did I tell you previously? I told you to treat her with kindness and is this what you do?!"
John looked up and saw that it was Zac, he immediately jumped out of his wallowing and sneered. "Zac Quinton, she's my wife, not yours, what are you anxious about?"
"You!"
Zac let go of his hands and narrowed his eyes at John, the only thing that crossed his mind right now was that this man in front of him was hopeless.
He was an outsider but he was horrified when he listened to Wes's description of what happened, how could this man be taking it for granted?
'What does he mean by Olivia is indestructible and she will not die?'
"John Freeman, Olivia is human, she is a living person! She has a heart and she does cry and feel pain, what are you treating her as?
"You are killing a person, do you know that?"
John stared coldly and Zac. "Are you concerned?"
His tone was full of scorn which made Zac feel uneasy. He then proceeded to punch John's face hard.
"John Freeman, have some f*ck*ng sense in you!"
He pointed towards the direction of the emergency room and shouted, "The one lying inside there is your wife, the one who you knelt for and asked to marry you! Wake up, John! Can you act like a human!?" Since he got caught by John previously in the villa, Zac reflected on himself and realized that he was actually being a busybody, he was not in the position to interfere in the couple's matter.
Yet, this time, he realized that he could not stay put and do nothing.
'If I continue to stay out of it, Olivia will die!
'She might not even survive the month, let alone 6 months!'
John got punched to the ground by Zac and he slumped on the chair without moving.
'Zac is right, she is the wife that I knelt down and proposed to.'
In the past, he loved Olivia more than anything, but now, he hated her as much as he once loved.
He stood up from the floor and wiped off the blood at the corner of his lips with his sleeve. His eyes were cold and dark, and just as he was about to fight back, the door of the emergency room opened. The doctor walked over and asked, "Who's the family member of the patient?"
Both John and Zac spoke at the same time, "Me."
The doctor was taken aback before he answered, "The surgery is complete, and the patient has regained her heartbeat. But, there are still the crucial 24 hours."
"The crucial 24 hours, what do you mean?"
"The patient is still having a high fever as she was caught in the heavy rain, in addition to the wounds on her body, there's a high possibility for infection to set in. Also, the patient is unable to breathe on her own for now, if her fever persists after 24 hours, then that's it for her."
John was stunned and he stared at the doctor in disbelief.
'Didn't she just catch a little rain, how could it be so serious?
'I don't believe it!
'She definitely colluded with the doctor, this woman is the best at acting weak.'
"It's just rain, how can it be so serious?"
The doctor glared at John angrily. It was he who saved Olivia the last time so he remembered her clearly.
'A lung cancer patient that was forced to eat soap... How many days has it been and now she's here again because of standing in the rain for hours?'
"Your wife is having..."
"Thank you, doctor, when can we see her?"
Zac interrupted the doctor before he managed to finish his words.
'Since John Freeman never learns his lesson, then he is not in the position to know about Olivia's condition, he is unworthy!'
