Chapter 166
Olivia gripped the edge of her dress tightly, “I'm fine,”
Maddie stomped her foot, incensed that Claude was more concerned about
Olivia than her own anger. “Excuse me?!”
Claude ignored Maddie, focusing on helping Olivia and wiping away the hot
water. Receiving no attention from him, Maddie stormed out of the restaurant,
grabbing her handbag,
Olivia hadn't anticipated things escalating to this point. She couldn’t stop Maddie
from leaving
Sophie finally snapped out of her shock and approached Olivia, “Oh my god, are
you okay?!"
Olivia felt the sting of the hot tea on her thighs, calves, and abdomen, but she
suppressed the pain. ” I'm fine... B-But what about Maddie?"
Sophie stared at her brother expectantly,
“Whatever. She can go wherever she wants. We're not a good match anyway,”
Claude said dismissively.
Sophie reeled, understanding the underlying message.
Olivia, however, did not and remained fixated on Maddie's departure. “No, you
need to go after her! I'm okay, really. I'll go home with Sophie.”
Claude held her hand. “She doesn’t matter right now. Here, let me check your
injuries-"
Olivia grimaced.
“On second thought,” Claude corrected, “Let's get you to a doctor.”
Despite Olivia's protests, Claude insisted. As they made their way, Claude asked
with concern, Should we put some ice on it? Is it getting worse?”

Sophie was a bit annoyed by her brother's worry. “Just get her to a doctor, okay?
Don't fuss too much!

Olivia and Claude fell silent. Sophie's words carried an implied meaning, and
both of them sensed it.
He glanced at Olivia and responded, “Right.”
“Hmph! This incident really ruffled your feathers,” Sophie teased, clearly enjoying
herself.
Claude, choosing to ignore her, kept driving.
At the hospital, the doctor examined Olivia. “She’s alright, but she has some
serious burns on her abdomen. She'll need cream to help heal her skin.”
Olivia was surprised it was that bad. “Wait, really?”
“Yes, it's important to start applying healing cream right away.
