Has he lost his mind? How could he make such a request? Does he still think of me as his servant!
Olivia’s features contorted with anger and disbelief, and she refused right away. “I’ll call Ethan in for you.”

rose to her feet to walk out.
Nathan added, “Ethan is clumsy. You know I can’t handle any rough treatment right now.”
I can’t seem to believe his words. Olivia looked at him with a hint of skepticism.
He put on a helpless expression. “I’m telling the truth.
Olivia
“Is that so?” Olivia arched an eyebrow, settling back onto the couch, and said nonchalantly. “In that case, take a bath after you’re feeling better.”
There’s no way I’m wiping his sweat for him.
Since there was no persuading her, Nathan could only give up.
Despite so, he still felt a pang of disappointment. She no longer attended to him with the same meticulous care as she used
to
Neither of them spoke again, and a prolonged silence enveloped the room.
As time ticked away, Olivia couldn’t help but yawn. She glanced back at the man lying motionless on the bed, assuming he had already fallen asleep.
She let out a sigh of relief but still dared not relax.
Roughly an hour had passed when the pain in his chest struck again. Nathan clutched his chest with one hand, the other tightly gripping the bedsheet beneath him, gritting his teeth to endure the pain.
He refrained from making a single sound for he didn’t want to cause her any worry.
Despite his best efforts to suppress it, his increasingly labored breathing still gave away his current condition.
The room was enveloped in silence, allowing Olivia to hear his ragged breaths clearly. Instinctively, she turned her head and caught sight of him slowly drawing his legs in.
Upon closer examination, she was startled to find his body trembling.
Her heart sank. She quickly rose to her feet and hurried over to him. Bending down, she saw his eyes were tightly shut. With a worried tone, she asked, “Are you okay?”
Nathan slowly opened his eyes, meeting her concerned gaze. A weak smile tugged at the corner of his lips. “I’m fine. It just hurts a little.”
Olivia was worried sick. He doesn’t seem fine.
“Are you sure you don’t need to go to the hospital?” She saw sweat breaking out on his forehead, a clear sign of how much pain he was in.
The piercing pain assailed him again. Nathan winced, inhaling sharply. Clenching his teeth, he said, “No. It will pass if I just bear with it”
As he finished speaking, he buried his face into the pillow, his breaths growing increasingly labored. His hair was drenched with sweat.

Though her voice sounded indifferent, it still managed to warm Nathan’s heart.
It didn’t matter to him whether she did this for Liam or simply out of compassion.
