Olivia swiftly prepared the medicinal herbs. Now, she was a far cry from who she used to be.She was calm and collected, and she was also powerful and steady. She was an independent woman now.Alora Village lacked many things, but medicinal herbs were not one of them. Wendy had taught Olivia everything she knew about medicine.Olivia had an amazing talent for curing poison, and she was already one of the top professionals in the world.She grabbed the things she needed and then hurried to the cave.She had just entered the cave when she heard Krystal sobbing. The cries didn't sound fake.Olivia heard that Krystal had liked Ethan for years. The two came from families of similar statuses, and they worked in the same profession. Even their blood type was the same.Perhaps Krystal was the person who suited him perfectly instead.Olivia walked in calmly. Krystal knelt at her feet, saying, "Doctor, my blood type is the same as his. If a blood transfusion is necessary, please use mine. I can

Ethan breathed weakly by Olivia's ear. It had been a long time since Olivia had been in such close contact with a man.Moreover, this man was calling her name. Her body stiffened a little.Wasn't he already engaged to someone else?Brent was startled when he saw that. He feared that this might offend the doctor, and the doctor would refuse to treat Ethan in her anger.So, he hastily said, "I'm so sorry. My boss doesn't know what's going on anymore.""It's okay." Olivia helped Ethan to the side of the tub. Then, she said, "Take off his clothes and put him inside."With that, she turned around to organize the herbs. A little foolishly, Brent asked, "All of it?""Yes," Olivia replied sullenly.When Brent said those words, the image of Ethan's body appeared in her mind. She had gotten herself intertwined with that man's body countless times, so no one knew that body better than her.Ethan's body had firmed up even more compared to when she left him back then. When she was ho

Brent subconsciously gulped as he pointed at himself. "Me?"Olivia said coldly, "Who else? Me? Hurry up. The time you're delaying right now is the life he's losing."Brent was a little exasperated. He didn't have a girlfriend, but it didn't mean that he swung that way. He was as straight as can be.But the doctor was right. The more time he wasted, the closer Ethan was to death."I … Fine." Brent thought that as long as it could help Ethan survive, this was nothing.With that, Brent took the bowl of medicine and held a mouthful in his mouth. The corners of his mouth kept twitching."Steady yourself. Don't waste the medicine. The second dose uses other herbs, and they have different effects."Brent felt like this was even harder than walking on a tightrope. Steeling himself, he closed his eyes and chose not to think of anything as he aimed his mouth at Ethan's.It was a matter of life and death, so he shouldn't think too much about it. He would treat it as CPR.Moreover, Et

Olivia's temper was slowly taking over her rationality. "Fine. You don't wanna let me check on you? Someone else will. Don't regret this later."Then, she intended to get out of the bathtub. If she stayed there any longer, she would've melted from the heat.She was clad in a long dress. The bathtub was slippery, and Ethan was at the rim that came with the stairs.When she was trying to get out of it, she stepped on her dress and slipped into the bathtub."Be careful." He held her in reflex as she shrieked in her normal voice."Liv!" Excitement beamed on his face.By the time Olivia pulled herself together, she realized that she was lying on his bare chest.Her soft palm pressed against his toned muscles. What scared her the most was that he appeared as though he was going to devour her whole.The calm Olivia changed her voice. "Please let go of me."Ethan was stunned by the unfamiliar voice, wondering if he had heard it wrongly. He quickly released her. He realized how absurd it was

Olivia couldn't comprehend the situation.She initially thought that Ethan would listen to her and let her check on him. She couldn't understand how he wanted a kiss as soon as they met.Besides, the kiss tasted bitter because Brent fed him medicine yesterday. She couldn't take it!She felt that she had dug her own grave for some reason."Ethan Miller, let go of me!"He hugged her like a koala, not wanting to release her. "Do you know how long I've been searching for you, Liv? I miss you every night and day. I was such a fool. Had I known that you'd go missing, I wouldn't have let you go."Olivia was stunned. It was no wonder that it was a smooth escape.Those people were hot on her heels the moment she escaped. Ethan was aware of her plan the whole time.If he wanted to stop her, he could've ruined her plans from the beginning."Why did you choose to let me go?""Because I've done so many despicable things to you. I wanted to make up for them," Ethan blurted the truth, bel
