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
Meanwhile, somewhere around Boston Hill, a beautiful lady dressed in a nightgown was seated on a sofa, pressing her phone. Despite the fact that she was wearing a normal nightgown, her curves still looked alluring.She was Ynes Larkin, the young mistress of Boston Hills' Larkin family.Just then there was a knock on the door."Young mistress, may I come in?""Come in." Ynes answered.The door was pushed open, and a man dressed in a black suit walked in. He was Ynes's personal bodyguard, Ryker.Seeing Ryker walk in, she placed her phone aside."Ryker, is there any problem?""Young miss, I've been able to gather some information about the young man.Hearing Ryker, Ynes jumped up in excitement and asked."What information were you able to gather about Oliver?"Ynes had earlier asked Ryker to find some information about Oliver. With the power of the Larkin family, it wasn't difficult for him to be able to gather information about anyone in Boston Hills."Miss, as he said, his real name is
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
The next day, Logan woke up from bed only to find her undies wet."I..I did have a wet dream today." She muttered as she tried recalling her dream."No, not him, Logan. What's happening to me?" "He's married, and I've known him for only a day.How can I have wet dreams because of him? It can't be that I've fallen in love with him." Logan questioned herself, looking embarrassed.Just then there was a knock on the door."Logan, aren't you awake yet?" Nora's voice could be heard at the back of the door.Logan snapped back to herself as she quickly changed her clothes so as not to let Nora notice what had happened.Meanwhile, Oliver finished dressing. Even though he was now living in a luxurious villa, he couldn't enjoy it as the thought of Zelda's condition flashed through his mind the whole night.Just as he was about to leave, his phone rang. He happily pressed the answer button, seeing that it was a call from Alice.A few days ago, Alice called and told him he was the master of a weal
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,
Hearing that Zelda's vital signs were below healthy levels, fear gripped Oliver."Doctor what's…."He only said a few words before he was cut off by a nurse."Sir, can you please wait outside so we can attend to the patient?" The nurse saidHearing this, Oliver nodded as he exited the room, praying for the best.A defibrillator was handed to Megan.Defibrillators are devices that send an electric pulse or shock to the heart to restore a normal heartbeat. They are used to prevent or correct an arrhythmia, an uneven heartbeat that is too slow or too fast. If the heart suddenly stops beating, defibrillators can also help it beat again.Without wasting time, Megan uncovered some area of Zelda's chest and pressed the defibrillator firmly against her.Even though she used the defibrillator several times, there was still no sign of a heartbeat."Hurry up, rush the patient to the ICU immediately." Megan ordered.The doctors and nurses obeyed as they placed Zelda on the wheeled stretcher and r
"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
"WooGetting into the car, he realized it was filled with a light and pleasant fragrance, which made the car warm.Megan started the car and drove away."Is Mr. Storm aware that he's the first male to sit inside this car?" Megan tried to start a conversation."Is Doctor Megan kidding? How can I be the first guy? What about your boyfriend or husband?" Oliver replied.Hearing his question, she smiled and replied,"Actually, I got this car only a week ago, and I'm not married nor am I dating."Oliver was stunned to hear Megan say she wasn't married and was also not dating. For someone as beautiful as Megan, he didn't expect her to be single."Are you shocked to know that I am a maiden?" Megan asked."Doctor Megan looks so beautiful that she might be every guy's dream, so I'm really shocked to hear that she's still single." Oliver replied while staring at her."Would you have dated me if you weren't married?" She turned to look at Oliver's expression after asking.Gulp!Oliver swallowed h
