Ellis heard this and was a bit dumbfounded, Huh? Youre at the hospital entrance? Then Ill come down right away to pick you up
After hanging up, he looked toward Lewis and thought to himself, Lewis, I may have no way to deal with you, but my uncle is coming! Just you wait, after you bullied Mrs. Olsen, you definitely wont get away with it!
With that thought, he hurried downstairs.
Nobody in the ward noticed that he had left after making the call, except for Isla.
Seeing Ellis leaving, she immediately came to Jakes side and asked, Jake, did Mr. Olsen just say that an elder from his family is coming?
Jake was slightly startled. Did he? I didnt catch that
He frowned, his mind full of the words Lewis had said, and his gaze unintentionally fell on Islas belly. He hesitated before asking, Is this child really mine?
Islas eyes flickered for a moment.
She had of course heard the conversation between

Lewis and Jake in the ward. She had thought that Jake trusted her, but unexpectedly, Jake asked her that question.
That was clearly a sign of distrust!
Indeed, on the night she and Jake were together, he was drunk and kept calling her Keira
At this thought, she clenched her fists tightly.
Isla showed a hurt expression. Jake, what do you mean by this? You cant possibly be suspecting me, can
you?
Jake frowned even more. He scrutinized her carefully, seeing nothing but sadness on her face, and then said, Of course I trust you. My uncle said what he did just because hes jealous that he cant have children!
Isla finally breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, Jus now, when Mr. Olsen was on the phone, I heard him mention Uncle Olsen is coming, Uncle Olsen isnt l the head of the Clance Olsen family?
Jake was surprised, then shook his head. That cant be how could someone of his stature come all the way to Clance just to visit your mother in this hospital

Although Mrs. Olsen had some connections in Clance, Jake didnt think they were that significant.
Uncle Olsen, after all, was a big shot in Clance whose smallest actions could shake the entire economic
circle. How could he personally visit Mrs. Olsen?
If Mrs. Olsen had such connections, the Olsen familys business would have been booming, and if not surpassing the Horton family, it would at least rank among the top in Oceanion.
Isla thought about it and also felt it was unlikely.
She must have thought too much right?
But if Mrs. Olsen really had such connections, how could she bear to let her marry Jake? Why not introduce her to a bigwig in Clance?!
At this thought, she looked toward the bed, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in her eyes.
There were many secrets about Mrs. Olsen that even she didnt know.
Even Mrs. Olsens connections were tightly concealed; if Isla hadnt threatened her with her life, Mrs. Olsen would never have approached the Horton family, nor

would she have managed to bring someone from the Clance Olsen family to suppor
her
A cold smile appeared on the corner of Islas lips.
If Mrs. Olsen died just like that, Clance wouldnt know who would come to offer condolences. By then, seeing her as Mrs. Olsens daughter, those connections might give her extra care, right?
Then Mrs. Olsens connections would be transferred to
her!
With this thought, Isla quickly retracted her malicious
gaze.
At that moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside
the door.
Tom walked in with five elderly-looking experts, heading straight for the center of the ward.
When the doctors and nurses couldnt find a

But he didnt step back. Staying close to the exper his gaze fixated on the person on the hospital bed, eyes noticeably red from strain, and though he didn

speak, his extreme nervousness and collapse were
vident.
His lips were dry and even cracked a bit.
Ever since Mrs. Olsens incident, he had gone without food or water, constantly by her side.
Isla walked over, holding his arm. Dad, go have some water and rest for a while
Back off.
Taylor glared at Isla. There was no shred of emotion in those eyes, which were as cold as if they were looking at a dead person. Dont even think about making me leave Shirley!
Isla was taken aback by his reaction and felt a trace of bitterness deep within.
Taylor was her biological father, who had pampered and loved her since she was a child.
For Isla, this was the first time she saw such an alien emotion in his eyes.
A sourness suddenly arose in her heart.
Taylors kindness to her was only because she was

Mrs. Olsens daughter
If Dad knew she was Poppys daughter, perhaps he wouldnt be so kind to her, right?
That was her understanding from childhood, so she kept that secret tightly concealed.
She couldnt help but take a deep breath. Dad, why dont you sit down first.
However, Taylor ignored her, still staring intently at Mrs. Olsen. Shirley, you cant leave me, okay? Without you, whats the point of living?
From that expression, everyone could tell that if Mrs. Olsen really didnt wake up, Taylor would probably kill himself.
Islas eyes reddened, and she turned her head away
The doctor beside them also couldnt help but let slight sigh.
Keira clenched her fist.
No matter how badly Taylor treated her, his feelings for Mrs. Olsen had always been real from beginning to end

Unfortunately, throughout the years, there always
seemed to be a veil between Mrs. Olsen and him as if a
faint gauze was separating his intense love
Keira always felt that what stood between them was Poppy and herself.
If it werent for them, Mrs. Olsen and Taylor would probably be a loving couple, right?
As Keira thought this, the specialists from Oceanion had already finished their examination of Mrs. Olsen. They huddled together for a targeted discussion and soon came to a conclusion, giving everyone a
reassuring statement. Mrs. Olsen is not in any life-threatening danger.
These words made Taylor heave a heavy sigh of relief again.
He asked urgently, Then why doesnt Shirley wake up
The doctors looked at each other, Weve also conducted an EEG on her, and there are no problems. As for why Mrs. Olsen hasnt woken up, we discussed it, and it seems that she hasnt rested well for too long. Her body automatically engaged sleep mode to

recover her strength and energy as quickly as possible
Taylor asked again anxiously, When will she wake up?
At the latest, in three days.
Taylor breathed a sigh of relief. He walked back to his seat and took Mrs. Olsens hand. Shirley, you want to sleep well for three days, right? Alright, no problem, Ill stay with you
He sat there quietly, no longer speaking.
Keira tensed her jaw.
Meanwhile, downstairs.
Uncle Olsens car stopped at the entrance of the hospital.
After picking him up, Ellis briskly led him upstairs to
the ward.
Scratching his head, he asked, Uncle Olsen, what exactly is your relationship with Mrs. Olsen? Why have you rushed here in person?
Uncle Olsens expression was firm and composed. Nearing fifty, he still looked like a man in his thirties or

forties, not showing the typical middle-aged lack of energy but remaining lean and strong.
He was wearing a black cloak, and the entire aura about him was one of coldness.
At hearing this question, those cold, glinting eyes glanced sideways at Ellis.
Ellis immediately stretched out his hand, making a zipping motion over his mouth. OK, I wont ask what I
shouldnt.
Uncle Olsen withdrew his gaze. The man of few words with a resolute look in his eyes continued to focus straight ahead.
He didnt even wait for the elevator and climbed the
stairs to the third floor.
Ellis said, Uncle Olsen, dont rush. The doctor said Mrs. Olsens life isnt in danger. Shes just tired and hasnt woken up yet
Uncle Olsens expression softened slightly, but he didnt stop.
Ellis coughed and joked wryly, Uncle Olsen, do you recognize all those ladies from Grandmas

generation?
Uncle Olsen replied coldly, Most of them. Your grandmother took me to many gatherings back in the day. Why do you ask?
Oh, its nothing serious. Its just that Lewis came with a photo looking for one of the ladies from Grandmas generation. I was worried I wouldnt recognize her, but if you do, that would be great Since youre here, you could help him have a look.
Ellis touched his nose.

Uncle Olsen didnt say anything more and quickened
his pace.
Soon, they arrived outside the ward.
Ellis pushed the door and entered.
