"She did, but that was on the condition that Krystal didn't apologize. Krystal did apologize to Madam

Wendy.”

Brent shook his head. "Do you think that it was a sincere apology?"

"I don't think so. If it really is Krystal's fault, what should we do?"

Brent sighed. “She should take the responsibility herself. Tell her to apologize to Madam Wendy

sincerely.”

He entered the room where the weak Ethan was resting.

Ethan didn't know what happened out there.

Brent greeted him as always when he entered the room, "Mr. . Miller, it's me.”

"I know." Ethan could recognize the duo's footsteps. He wasn't as weak as Brent thought.

"How are you feeling today?”

Ethan closed his eyes, frowning. "Bad. The headache is killing me.”

The marks on his face became lighter. He should be getting better because most of the poison was

disposed of.

Brent wondered, "Why is Mr. Miller's complexion looking bad?"

“Hold on. I'll call the doctor over.”

"Okay.”

Brent couldn't care less about Krystal's incident as he ran to Olivia's laboratory.

She was reading a medical book while preparing medicine.

Not only was she practicing herbal medicine, but she also excelled in modern medicine.

She even concocted her own treatment for some illness.

Noticing the anxious Brent, she figured that something was wrong with Ethan.

That was the only matter that could make the calm and collected man anxious.

"What's wrong?” She slid a bookmark between the pages before standing up. novelbin

"Something's wrong with Mr. Miller. Please come with me.”

She was already heading to the room. "Okay. Watch the fire for me. Don't let anyone come near the

medicine.”

Although it was her territory, unforeseen accidents might happen, too.

Ethan's detox had yet to finish. If someone changed the ingredients of the medicine, it might cost his

life.

“Okay,” replied Brent.

Olivia scurried into the house with light steps.

“Vanessa?” asked Ethan. He was alert because he couldn't see.

"Yeah, it's me.” Olivia approached him. She smelled like herbs.

Ethan's expression slightly changed when the faint scent wafted his nose.

It was the same scent he smelled in his dream!

It wasn't the smell of herb medicine.

Olivia had been surrounded by herbs around the clock for the past three years.

Since she was also taking medicine, she carried a distinct body scent similar to herbs.

Not even a perfumer could make that scent.

Olivia didn't notice anything in particular because she was used to it.

Besides, she rarely interacted intimately with others. Only the people close to her in the distance could

smell it.

Anxious, she leaned toward him to check on him without caring about his emotions.

She pried his eyelids wider to observe his orbs while asking, ”Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Her long hair strand brushed his neck when she leaned over.

It was as light as a feather, hence the ticklish sensation.

Ethan pulled his senses back and faced her direction.

All he could see was a blurry face.

"I'm having a serious headache, and my stomach is churning. I don't have an appetite either.”

“Open your mouth and show me your tongue.”

She grabbed his chin. Her cold fingers prompted him to open his mouth.

He could see her getting closer to him and feel her breathing.

She released him before announcing solemnly, "I have to check your body.”

Surprisingly, he didn't stop her this time as she undid his buttons.

It was the same way Olivia removed his clothes in the past!
