Chapter 1083

The sun had yet to rise, but Ethan's phone kept vibrating.

He wanted to turn it off and keep sleeping but noticed it was a call from Joel.novelbin

Joel wouldn't contact him unless it was something very important.

"What's wrong, Mr. Tucker?" Ethan lowered his voice as he looked at Olivia, who was in his arms. Hedidn't want to wake her.

"That person is injured."

Ethan was instantly wide awake. "When did it happen? Why wasn’t I informed?"

"It happened 30 minutes ago. News of the incident is being kept secret by the top brass."

"I'll get there as soon as possible."

Ethan hung up and looked at Olivia, who had just woken up.

He kissed her on the lips and said, "Liv, I'm sorry. There's an emergency."

Olivia understood that Ethan was a busy man. She nodded and went back to sleep.

Her carefree attitude amused Ethan.

In the past, she wouldn't be able to sleep if he needed to leave before daybreak. She would get up andsend him off with a worried expression.

Ethan left in a hurry.

Just as Olivia was about to fall asleep, her phone rang. It was an unknown caller.

She picked up. "Hello?"

"It's me." Jack's voice came from the other end of the line.

Olivia's drowsiness left her immediately. His voice sounded off.

"What's wrong, Jack?"

"I'm injured."

"Where are you? I'll get there immediately."

Jack was like a brother to Olivia. She rushed over to his side when she heard that he was injured.

Jack was a deserter from the Black Ravens. They never stopped going after him. Did they put him onthe back foot this time? But she didn't receive any news on that.

Olivia arrived at her villa. The living looked like a crime scene. There was blood everywhere.

It seemed like Jack was seriously injured this time. He was sitting on the carpet and leaning against thecouch. He was holding on to consciousness with sheer willpower as he waited for Olivia to arrive.

"I'm sorry I soiled your carpet."

Tears welled up in Olivia's eyes when she saw Jack covered in blood.

She rushed over to him and asked, "What were you doing, Jack? How did you get so badly injured?"

Jack smiled in resignation. "I can't tell you about it."

A few days ago, he said he needed to go on a mission. Jack helped her a lot, but he never told heranything.

So, Olivia never asked.

If she knew he would be injured, she would've asked about it.

"Let me take a look at your wounds."

Olivia was calmer than she had ever been. It was at times like these when she had to keep her cool.

With his identity, Jack couldn't be sent to the hospital. She was his only hope.

"I might not make it through this. Olivia, actually, I..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Jack blacked out and fell over. Olivia quickly held him steady.

Jack was in a horrible state. His arms, abdomen, and chest had been shot.

Olivia couldn't even imagine what kind of perilous situation he was in to sustain these injuries.

She had to remove the bullets from his body as soon as possible.

Luckily, she had fashioned one of the basement rooms into a medical room when she purchased thevilla.

Olivia carried Jack to the basement. She was alone and didn't have an assistant.

She had to be the anesthetist, general surgeon, and cardiovascular specialist.

Olivia put on sterile clothing and quickly removed the bullets from Jack's wounds.

He was gravely wounded. His survival wasn't guaranteed.

Olivia was panicking, but her hands were steady. She had no choice. She had to save Jack.
