Chapter 627: Thinking of Her Every Moment
He Clings to Me Every Night
Seeing Daniel Marshallâs severe cough, Martin Wallace suggested, âLet the doctor take a look, why not get a thorough check-up done? Later, Iâll mention this to Olivia Jenkins.â
Adam Howard also noticed that Danielâs cough was getting more and more severe, it was time to have a doctor take a proper look, or else it might develop into a lung disease.
Heaving a slight sigh, Martin kindly shared, âI also heard Oliviaâs first stint as a producer is about to kick off. The TV show sheâs overseeing, âMy Tsundere Husbandâ has its opening ceremony tomorrow.â
Adam Howard and Martin exchanged knowing glances, âThanks!â
With a nonchalant shrug, Martin said, âIâm leaving, Daniel, rest well.â
As Simon Howard helped Daniel drink some water, suddenly, Daniel spat it all out.
In an instant, Adamâs brows knitted together tightly in concern. His handsome face turned grave, his eyes shimmering with worry.
Reactively, Adam touched Danielâs forehead, it felt hotter.
âDaniel, you should focus on getting better for now. Iâll take care of the company. Given the state youâre in, you shouldnât leave the hospital. Be a good boy, will you?â
Daniel weakly nodded his head, feeling his eyes burning, head aching, throat hurting, and chest uncomfortable.
The head doctor came in, attentively examining Danielâs chest and throat, and prescribed some tests.
âChief Daniel Marshall, letâs start with a blood test, get a chest X-ray, and then an ECG. Once we have the results, Iâll give you a detailed explanation. Your condition is worsening. Your throat is swollen, which is a sign of inflammation, and thereâre noises from your lungs, I preliminarily diagnose it as pneumonia.â
Daniel was still coughing, but he nodded his head, following the chiefâs instructions.
He had no idea that he was this sick.
Now, he truly felt terribly unwell, his heart aching unspeakably. But even so, even when Olivia cold-heartedly ignored him, the person he thought of was still Olivia, and the person in his heart was still her.
He longed for Olivia to suddenly appear, he wanted to see her, every minute and every second of the day.
Daniel laughed at himself inside. It was his own fault. He didnât deserve Oliviaâs sympathy.
He knew where he had gone wrong, he would change for sure, he would definitely strive to be the best.
â¦
After hearing about Danielâs condition from Martin, Olivia remained indifferent.
She was still determined to separate.
Martin chuckled painfully, âSister-in-law, Iâll definitely convey your message, but in my opinion, Daniel really loves you, he wonât let you go. Why donât you considerâ¦â
âLawyer Wallace, have you started matchmaking now?â
Interrupted by Olivia, Martin was slightly startled, locking his hawk-like gaze on Olivia, keenly observing her.
Olivia didnât evade Martinâs probing. Her gorgeous face showed no sign of emotional fluctuation, making it impossible for anyone to understand what else she might be thinking. Perhaps, her only thought was to separate!
Martin took a deep breath, furrowing his brows and squinting, âI saw him, he really looks pitiful, his illness is severe. In all these years of friendship, I have never seen him like this, it feels worse than a breakup.â
âHow about compared to losing a partner?â
Martin didnât expect Olivia to ask such a question, caught off guard, he didnât know how to respond.
Oliviaâs aura exuded a sharp edge, âThe spectator sees more of the game, Martin, you should be able to see more clearly than me. So, donât mention him in front of me anymore. Whenever you contact me, apart from discussing the progress of the separation agreement, donât say anything else.â
âOlivia, youâre being deceitful, you say one thing and mean another! You clearly care a lot about Charmy Bennett, yet you pretend to be indifferent. Youâre not being honest. A spectator does see more of the game. It takes two to tango. Iâm not taking sides, this is what I think about your marriage.â
