Chapter 179: Chapter 179 Chapter 179: Chapter 179 The doctor’s expression was grave as he scanned the eyes of everyone present and asked, “Who is the patient’s family mber?”
“I am!”
Taylor Olsen stepped forward.
He stared at the doctor’s face, asking, “How is my wife?”
Upon hearing this, the doctor looked at him, “She’s out of life-threatening danger now.”
At these words, Kiera Olsen’s entire being relaxed greatly, and then her hands began to tremble unconsciously.
“Dad!”
Suddenly, she heard Isla Olsen’s alard cry, and Kiera Olsen looked up to see that Taylor Olsen had sat down on the ground with a thud.
It seed that he had also been extrely tense, and had completely relaxed upon hearing this news.
Isla Olsen and Jake Horton tried to help him up, but Taylor Olsen waved his hand, “I’m fine.”
He sat there on the ground as if he had walked a full circle through hell, finally regaining the deanor of the Olsen family patriarch.
He sat there, looking up at the doctor with a voice that was still trembling, the whole man sowhat frightened, “What happened to my wife? Why did she vomit blood? Is it serious…”
“Anger caused a surge in blood pressure, leading to the rupture of a blood vessel and resulting in blood vomiting. You got her to the hospital in ti, so there’s no serious problem, but from now on, the patient needs to maintain stable emotions and should not be subjected to any more stress.”
After instructing, the doctor turned and opened the door to the surgery room, and a nurse wheeled a bed out.
Taylor Olsen imdiately got up from the ground and approached the bed, holding tightly onto Mrs. Olsen’s hand.
He buried his head in Mrs. Olsen’s hospital bed, tears rolling down his cheeks, the whole person exuding a sense of having narrowly escaped death, “Shirley, you almost scared to death…”
“Transfer to a regular ward will be fine, there’s no danger to the patient’s life.”
After giving the instruction, a group of people surrounded the bed and walked towards the regular ward.
Kiera Olsen followed them from a distance, her eyes also slightly red by then.
Once Mrs. Olsen was pushed into the ward, Isla Olsen and Jake Horton turned to look at her fiercely.
Isla Olsen burst out, “Kiera Olsen, how can you be so shaless? You upset my mom like that, why did you even co?!”
Kiera Olsen didn’t speak.
But Lewis Horton stood in front of her and warned her sharply, “Isla!”
Just a na made Isla Olsen shiver.
But her eyes quickly shifted to Ellis Olsen beside her and she imdiately said, “Uncle, even if you want to exercise family law against today, I must speak out! If it weren’t for her insisting on entering our house tonight, wanting to see my mom, how could my mom end up like this? Tonight’s incident is related to her!”
Lewis Horton’s brows furrowed upon hearing that, “Shut your mouth!”
Isla Olsen put on a wronged face, and sure enough, the next mont, Ellis Olsen spoke up, “Lewis Horton, you really can’t tell right from wrong, can you? I’m now witnessing your true colors of bullying by using your power here. I didn’t expect this from you!”
Lewis Horton looked at him coldly, “What kind of person I am is none of your business.”
Ellis Olsen scoffed, “But when you’re bullying the person I protect, that makes it my business! Lewis Horton, you should know that among those present, you’re not the only one who shouldn’t be ssed with!”
He pointed towards the hospital room, accusing, “I watched the whole thing tonight. From the beginning to the end, it was Kiera Olsen who insisted on showing so damn photo to Mrs. Olsen, and then her mom, that mistress, shalessly barged in and provoked Mrs. Olsen with a few words. That’s what led to this! With here, it’s not your turn to bully the Olsen family!”
Only then did Lewis Horton understand why Kiera Olsen went to the Olsen Family’s house.
The Olsen family had always been an unspoken pain in Kiera Olsen’s heart; she wouldn’t normally make a visit without good reason.
Today was supposed to be the day she went to the Allen Family to see so photo, but ended up bringing the photo to the Olsen Family instead… There must be sothing going on.
But he didn’t imdiately ask, just lowered his gaze towards her, “Keira, you haven’t had dinner yet, have you? I’ll take you out to eat.”
Keira Olsen nodded indifferently.
After descending the stairs, the two found a random restaurant near the hospital.
Lewis Horton ordered a serving of porridge for her and nothing else.
Keira Olsen, spoon in hand, was stirring the porridge in the bowl. Her gaze stayed downcast the entire ti, and her whole being radiated an air of despondence.
Lewis Horton thought back to the first ti he t her when the girl glared at him with those sly amorous eyes, calling him husband, and to all the tis thereafter when she appeared before him in various identities, always with a hint of playfulness.
She was like a little sun that had forcefully entered his life.
When had he ever seen such a sun so dejected?
Lewis Horton couldn’t help but ask, “What photo did you see tonight?”
It was then that Keira Olsen realized that she had been clutching that old photo in her left hand the whole ti. She looked up and handed the photo to Lewis Horton.
Upon seeing the person in the photo, Lewis Horton also paused for a mont before finally speaking, “Your mother, Poppy Hill, I have already investigated her. She and your uncle Finley Hill’s mother don’t look like this… so this must be your grandmother.”
Keira Olsen kept her head down and said nothing.
Lewis Horton continued, “Last ti when you found out you were not Taylor Olsen’s daughter, Poppy Hill said she didn’t know who your father was. Looking at the woman in the photo, dressed so lavishly, and that’s Mr. Allen next to her, she must be from Clance…”
He paused, then suddenly asked, “Keira, I didn’t expect you to be the lost daughter of a wealthy and noble family. If you’re acknowledged and taken back, you won’t look down on the Horton Family for having a lower status, and think they’re unworthy of you, right?”
Keira Olsen slowly lifted her head.
The man spoke at a leisurely pace, his tone light and his voice low and magnetic, which unknowingly soothed her.
Reason finally began to return slowly.
Just as she was about to say sothing, a snicker ca from Ellis Olsen, “Pfft, Lewis Horton, there are only a few prominent families in Clance with the status and power to look down on you. What are you joking about? Keira Olsen, an illegitimate daughter, could co from such a high background?”
The two turned to see Ellis Olsen sitting lazily at the table next to theirs, “I’m familiar with people from Clance. Show the photo, I’m sure I’ll recognize it.”
He was curious, what photo could have caused Mrs. Olsen such significant emotional turmoil?
Lewis Horton hesitated upon hearing this.
Ellis Olsen was born and raised in Clance, he might really recognize soone…
He handed the photo to Ellis Olsen.
Before Ellis Olsen could look at it, he heard Keira Olsen ask, “Has Mrs. Olsen woken up yet?”
Ellis Olsen answered, “She should soon. The doctor just said she could wake up in half an hour.”
No sooner had he spoken than Keira Olsen stood up abruptly. Clarity returned to her eyes, and the weakness on her face faded away as she turned directly to Lewis Horton, “Mr. Horton, before Mrs. Olsen fainted, she clasped my hand and told not to leave. She must have sothing she wants to tell . I need to be the first person she sees when she wakes up.”
Lewis Horton understood her intention and promptly said, “Okay, I’ll arrange it.”
Keira Olsen didn’t finish her al; she stood up and headed out.
Lewis Horton also hurried to follow.
Ellis Olsen frowned upon hearing their conversation, then lowered his gaze to the photo in his hand…
