Chapter 1078
"Don't leave! I wanna walk again. I will do as you say."
Marina looked at Poppy. "Apply the ointment for me."
Poppy looked at the blisters-covered feet and stumbled over her words. "I-I don't think I
can do it. Why not let Mr. Fabian do it?" Comment by soonyoung gu: Is this Darrell or a
new person??
Otto, who wasn't aware of the whole situation, said, "Yeah. Let Fabian do it. He's daring
but meticulous."
Fabian appeared to be a loving person to Otto because Fabian treated Marina well even
though they weren't blood- related.
After Fabian began managing the household, he didn't mistreat her because of her
identity. He treated her with care instead.
So, Otto believed in Fabian.
Marina bit her lip, not knowing what to say.
Knowing what was actually going on, Olivia enjoyed the show.

Just a light touch of the blister hurt. Yet, Olivia asked Fabian to poke it before applying the
ointment. Even he himself could barely do it.
"Just hold on."
He didn't hesitate with his moves, and it hurt so much that Marina wailed.
After poking the blisters, he applied the light blue cream onto them.
It was the same as smearing salt and covering a layer of spice across the wound.
Marina screamed in agony.
The pain sent her body trembling. Beads of sweat ran down her forehead.
Before she could scold anyone, she fainted.
"Vanessa, what's going on?"
Olivia replied languidly, "I made this ointment myself. It's a very strong medicine, but it
has the best effect.
"The normal medicine out there can do almost nothing for her. Just wait and see.
"30 minutes later, you'll be able to see the change of her legs. But... the price is that she
has to suffer hell."
Fabian hurriedly asked, "Will it take a toll on her health?"
She sneered. "There's no such thing as a happy ending in this world. She won't be able to
own everything without sacrifices."
Without a care of what the Carltons thought, she took her needle pouch out to perform the
acupuncture.
She especially brought thicker needles for Marina.
"Vanessa, why are your needles this thick?"
"This is not a minor illness. Do you think that the usual needles can help?" Olivia
questioned back.
She began inserting the needles one by one. On the tenth needle, Marina woke up.
The area where the ointment was applied didn't hurt that much anymore, but the needles
were hurtful.
She cried while looking at Ethan. "Ethan, it hurts. It hurts so much. Save me."

The day of Olivia's first delivery replayed in his head.
It was preterm labor, and she was losing a lot of blood.
He stood outside the operating room, hearing her yelp at the top of her lungs.
People said that giving birth to a baby was the most hurtful thing in the world.
Could Marina understand the pain and tears Olivia shed because of her?
He responded icily, "If you're afraid of the pain, then stop the treatment. It's not that bad
to live in a wheelchair forever."
"Are you still blaming me, Ethan? I didn't recognize him back then! If I had known that he
was Jeff, why would I say that? It was an accident. I-" She ended up screaming again.
Olivia exerted more strength, and Marina was in excruciating pain.
"Ms. Carlton, some things couldn't be glossed over by saying that it was an accident. It's
like how the dead can never come back to life."
Marina met Olivia's eyes, which appeared familiar to her. But Marina was confident that
she had never seen that face before.
"What do you want me to do then? He's dead. Do you want me to go to him? Then, why
are you saving me?"
"Because the living person should etch the pain of the deceased in their bones."
