Olivia laid out the piece of animal skin again. She also brought a small blanket over.
Brent said, "Vanessa, can you give me a hand? I can't get him out alone."
Ethan had lost consciousness, so Brent couldn't move Ethan out on his own.
Olivia was troubled. She had told Kelvin to leave just now because he was too jumpy and nervous.
But now, she realized that she had caused trouble for herself. In the end, she decided to just treat Ethan as a
normal patient.
"Alright."
The two stood on the steps, getting Ethan out after a huge struggle. Olivia didn't dare to look where she shouldn't.
Ethan was covered in burning heat, and no one knew if his body was covered with the medicinal water or his sweat.
Still, he looked a little better than before.
"Careful." Brent carefully helped Ethan out.
Olivia moved quite gently, but the ground was uneven. Brent didn't watch where he was going, so Ethan's body fell.
Like a dead body, Ethan's body weighed upon Olivia, pinning her on the piece of animal skin. His body was naked,

At that unfortunate timing, he even called out, "Liv."
Brent's face turned red. How embarrassing!
"Sorry, it's all my fault."
Even if Olivia was pissed, she couldn't show it. She took great pains to move Ethan away.
Then, she covered him with a blanket.
She patted her clothes, which he had gotten wet.
Pretending that she didn't care, she said, "Hurry and feed him the medicine."
"Understood."
Brent poured some medicine into Ethan's mouth, but Ethan didn't intend to swallow.
The medicine dripped out of the corners of his mouth.
Brent didn't dare to waste the medicine.
He hastily asked Olivia, "Vanessa, my boss' senses were affected by the poison when he was dying. I don't think he
knows how to swallow right now.
"How should I feed him the medicine?"
Olivia frowned. If they were in the hospital, feeding medicine would be much more convenient.
Some patients with throat cancer couldn't eat, so they would just create an opening in the patient's body and guide
substances into the patient's stomach with equipment.
But here, the medical resources were very outdated. This wouldn't work.
Willow's blood could only delay the toxins' effect, not cure it. If this went on, even with an antidote, Ethan wouldn't
be able to survive.
"He has a fiancée, doesn't he? Get her in here and let her feed the medicine to him with her mouth."
"That won't do," Brent hastily declined.
Olivia frowned. "Why the shyness even at times like this? Do you want him to die?"
"You don't know this, but that woman isn't my boss' fiancée at all. She lied on purpose to convince Madam Wendy to
save him.
"My boss has someone else he loves, so even if he survived, he would be mad if he knew that Ms. Heath had fed
the medicine to him."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia muttered, "It's just medicine. I can't get the love of his life here right now, can I?"
"We can settle for anything else, but my boss is just too stubborn.
"He only ever loved his wife, and he would never allow himself to touch anyone else. I can't agree to this on his
behalf.
"Do you have a better idea?"
Olivia was stunned. She didn't expect Brent to give that answer.
"If he likes his wife so much, where is she now? How can he allow another woman to accompany him here?"
"She left more than three years ago. My boss looked everywhere, but he couldn't find her.
"If the enemy hadn't found a woman who looked a lot like my boss' wife, my boss wouldn't have gotten distracted
and then poisoned."
So, that was how Ethan got himself into this predicament. Olivia didn't know what to say to that.
"Well, we're not completely out of options. There's another way."
"What is it?"
Olivia stared at Brent's mouth. "You're his brother, right? You do it!"
