Chapter 133 It Wasn’t an Accident
A while later, a nurse came in and pulled out the pinhead for Olivia.
Olivia flashed a smile and thanked her.
The nurse exhorted, “Try to stay idle all the time. If you feel uncomfortable, close your eyes and take a rest. It’s best to tell your boyfriend to get you some food to eat before sleeping.”
Olivia was startled. Boyfriend? She hurriedly explained, “He’s not—”
Eugene interrupted, “Alright. Is there anything she can’t eat?”
The nurse answered, “Eat as much light food as possible and avoid anything spicy.”
Eugene nodded. “Alright.”
After the nurse left, Olivia wanted to explain what just happened. Seeing that Eugene was acting normally, she decided to keep her mouth shut, for it would be weird if she suddenly tried to explain herself.
Meanwhile, Eugene was overjoyed and praised that the nurse was insightful.
He wouldn’t even give Olivia a chance to speak as he took out his phone and made a call.
“Buy some light food. Err… Just buy a bit of everything!”
Olivia wondered what the person at the other end of the line had said that offended Eugene as he became irritated.
After the call ended, he came back, and his voice turned gentle in an instant. “Wait for a while. The food will arrive shortly. Close your eyes and take a rest.”
He sounded like he was coaxing a child.
Not knowing what to say, Olivia decided to keep her mouth shut and closed her eyes.
Eugene couldn’t help grinning. Looking at her moving eyes underneath her eyelids, he said, “I’m investigating the car crash. Don’t worry about it.”
Olivia opened her eyes again. “Wasn’t it an accident?”
Eugene answered expressionlessly, “It appears to be an accident.”
But it’s not. Olivia helped him finish his words in her heart.
Eugene continued, “The driver was drunk driving and ran the red light. Fortunately, only the latter half of your car was hit, which caused you to suffer from a concussion.”
At that moment, he took a deep breath and appeared to be reeling from shock when recounting the story.
Olivia thought to herself that her reflexive move had saved herself. If she never stepped on the gas, she would have been killed by the fast-moving truck.
Who was it that wanted her dead?
The conversation came to an abrupt stop as the atmosphere fell into silence. A while later, Olivia said, “Err… Mr. Nolan, is my phone with you?”
Eugene understood that she was feeling uneasy and wanted to get her phone back to make a call. However, he was worried about her and wanted to stay here to keep her company.
Staring at her, he persuaded gently, “The doctor said that you’d have to stay in the hospital for one week. It’s late now, so please don’t bother your best friend. I’ll tell her to come over tomorrow.”
Olivia didn’t want to bother her best friend at this time either, but she felt nervous with him around.
Knock, knock, knock… Someone knocked on the door thrice.
Eugene rose from the chair and opened the door. Curtis had arrived with the food and greeted, “President Nolan, Miss Maxwell.”
Eugene pointed at the bedside table and said, “Put down the food there.”
Curtis nodded in agreement and put down the food. “President Nolan, I’ll take my leave now.”
After he left, the ward fell into silence again.
Eugene gazed at her and inquired, “Should I place a pillow behind your head and feed you the food?”
Olivia flushed in an instant upon hearing that. What kind of question is that? I don’t need your help!
“I-I’ll eat on my own.”
Eugene walked over and adjusted the bed. Trying not to make her feel uncomfortable, he lifted her head a little and placed a pillow behind her head.
Olivia wanted to sit up on her own, but she felt dizzy immediately and wanted to vomit.
Therefore, she could only glower at him when he wasn’t aware because he didn’t return her phone to her.
It would be much easier if Kate is here. I will just let her feed me.
