Chapter 22Oliver was stunned to see Doctor Megan at the entrance. His focus was on Zelda, and he failed to notice that someone had entered the room.Seeing Megan, Oliver quickly asked."Doctor, what happened to my wife?" As of now, Oliver was still not sure what had happened to Zelda to land her in the emergency room."This lady is your wife?" Megan asked with a stern face.When Oliver came to her office earlier on to ask for a permit to see his wife, she didn't know that the lady who was rushed into the emergency room was the one he was referring to.Hearing her question, he nodded."If he's your wife, why did the other gentleman who came to foot the bill also claim to be her husband?" Hearing this, Oliver was confused."Another person claiming to be Zelda's husband?" Who could it be? Oliver thought.After some time, a name popped into his head. "Alex? I remember him telling my mother-in-law that he had footed the bill and that he was the only person who would claim to be Zelda's

Oliver stood up and asked, "Doctor, how is Zelda doing?"Hearing Oliver mention Zelda again Megan sighed."Is she really your wife?" "You weren't lying?" She asked.Oliver chuckled lightly and said, "Why would I be waiting here for about two hours if I were lying?"Hearing his reply, she was somehow convinced."It couldn't be that he's lying, right?" "He wouldn't have waited here for long." She thought about this and replied."The poison she consumed was very effective, and even though we tried our best and washed the poison away from her body, there's no response yet, but she's being taken care of well.""Depending on the situation tomorrow, we will determine if an operation will be done or not."What!Hearing that Zelda consumed poison, Oliver slumped back to the chair, feeling his legs go weak instantly as his body couldn't stop shaking.Seeing this, Megan hurried to support him."What happened?""Are you not feeling well?" She anxiously asked."Doctor, you mean my Zelda is in th

After the call ended, Oliver sat in his newly bought car and drove to City Hospital.After getting to the hospital, he parked his car somewhere so as not to draw too much attention. After getting a permit, Oliver went into the emergency room, where Zelda was.Getting into the room, he realized that his mother-in-law was already there, sitting near Zelda as tears streamed down her face while she caressed her hair."Zelda, my daughter, you would be fine; if you leave, then mom won't be able to live.""Didn't you promise me to always take care of me?" "You're the only one left in my life after your dad died, so please do well to hold on."Her emotional words hit Oliver; he was even hurt seeing Zelda in such a state, so he understood the pain his mother-in-law was going through. He forced himself to hold back his tears.Seeing Oliver walk in, Abigail wiped her tears."What do you want here? My daughter doesn't want to see your face," she angrily yelled at Oliver.Hearing her cold words,

"Doctor Megan, where's Zelda?" "How is she doing?"Megan sighed upon hearing his question."Mr. Storm, I am sorry.""What?"Oliver's body shivered as he slumped hard on the bench. His tears gushed out like a flowing stream."How can this happen? I'm sorry Zelda."He buried his head in between his thighs as his tears flowed out.Seeing this, Megan sat down near Oliver, looking confused."Mr Storm. You didn't let me finish what I wanted to say. I only said sorry to apologize for keeping you anxious all this while, but as for your wife, she's fine now and might even regain consciousness by tomorrow.""Huh?"Oliver, who has buried his head in his thighs, raised his head instantly and cleaned his tears."Doctor Megan, what did you say? Zelda is alive and doing ok?" He questioned impatiently.Megan nodded with a smile and said. "Her heartbeat has returned to its normal state. Everything is fine now, and she might regain consciousness tomorrow."Hearing this, a strong wave full of joy hit

"It seems your marriage was an arranged one, you love your wife but she doesn't!" Megan asked.Oliver who was about to close his eyes opened them hearing Megan's question. "It seems Doctor Megan has done a little background check on me.""I haven't, I have access to all the CCTV cameras in the hospital so I heard the conversation between you and your mother-in-law."Oliver nodded."Two years ago, before the death of my grandfather, he came into an agreement with Mr. Ellison to get Zelda and I married. At that time Zelda had just finished university and so had I. We got married even though it was against her wish. I knew that my marriage with her was something that was going to affect her deeply because she was forced into marrying me, so I did my best to show her love and let her know that I cared about her the most.I did things against her will, not even having our first night, even though I could have forced her to because her dad had no problem with our marriage. Up Till now we
