Chapter 162
That night, many people couldn't sleep.
(+23)
Olivia's illness had worsened, which caused her unbearable pain and made it impossible for her to sleep through
the night.
In the past, Chris and Tyler would always be by her side, but tonight, neither of them came.
Only Catlin was at the hospital with her.
In the middle of the night, Olivia was wracked with pain. When she turned over and saw that her pillow was
covered in strands of her hair, her eyes instantly reddened.
Seeing this, Catlin comforted her, “It will grow back after you recover.”
“Where's Chris?” Olivia sniffled.
Her voice was weak.
Catlin replied, “He said he has an important business partner in Long Harbor and will be delayed for stime.”
That was what Grace had told her.
Supposedly, Chris had to meet an extremely important business partner in the coming days. While they referred
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto him as a ‘partner, the deal had yet to be secured.
At such a critical moment, no mistakes could be made.
Because of Olivia's pain, Catlin had called Chris, hoping he could find another way to reach out to Allison and
Macro.
Stephanie had deceived them, but they couldn't afford to give up.
However, it was Grace who answered the call instead. She scolded Catlin harshly and even snapped, saying,
“Even if Olivia dies in the next two days, don’t bother looking for Chris.”
Hearing such cruel words about the child she had raised, Catlin felt mad.
But she didn’t dare to argue.
After all, the Hart family was deteriorating rapidly. The Ashford family was clearly just using them and now
turned their backs on them.
Hearing Catlin’s words, Olivia's mood immediately plummeted.
“I see... Let's not disturb him then.”
Catlin added, “He probably won't be coming for the next few days.”
From the way Grace spoke, it was clear that this business deal was of utmost importance.
She had even warned that if the deal fell through because of Olivia, she would personally make them pay.
With such a severe warning, Catlin naturally didn’t dare to contact Chris again.
When Olivia heard that Chris wouldn't be visiting for several days, her face froze. “Several days?”
She was supposed to be discharged in three days. Chris had promised her that she could recover at Whispering
Bay.

But if he wasn’t coming to the hospital, would she still be able to leave on time?
Catlin nodded. “Yes, he won't be coming for several days. You shouldn't call him either.”
Grace's temper was no joke-she was like a raging demon.
Hearing that, Olivia's eyes welled up with tears.
Catlin couldn't bear to see her like this. “Don’t cry. It's just for a few days. That deal is really important.”
If it weren't, Grace wouldn’t have gotten so furious.
“Will I still be able to leave the hospital on time?”
Olivia choked up.
Catlin fell silent for a moment.
Discharged?
Thinking about Chris's promise, she thought for a moment before saying, “I'm sure Whispering Bay had already
been arranged. I'll call tomorrow morning to check. Even if he doesn’t come, we'll proceed with the discharge as
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmplanned.”
She knew Olivia wanted to leave the hospital.
The strong smell of disinfectant bothered her, and she longed to recover at Whispering Bay, where the air was
fresh and clean.
Hearing that, Olivia felt a little better. “I wonder if the curtains have been changed yet.”
She had always wanted them replaced with ones featuring sunflowers, which symbolized rebirth.
She wanted to get well soon.
The smell of disinfectant in this hospital was so strong that she didn’t want to stay a moment longer.
