Chapter 98
"Alright."
John's tone was rather stiff, which made Dorothy anxious.
"Okay Johnny, don't forget to eat, I shall not disturb you anymore."
Hearing that, John felt that he might have been too fierce earlier and he spoke gentler, "Okay, I am sorry if I sounded harsh earlier, rest well." That being said, he ended the call.
Although he sounded kind, he was still irritated when hearing her voice.
He used to like Olivia being coquettish because her voice was tender and sweet, just like a gummy candy.
Yet, Dorothy's way of being coquettish was different, it sounded strange and stiff which annoyed him in the back of his mind.
Then again, she saved his life so he would always assume that he was just overthinking.
At this time in Golden Hills Apartment...
The two finished dinner and continued watching TV while enjoying their fruit juice peacefully.
Suddenly, Zyla remembered something and looked at Olivia in shock. "Sis Liv, you're supposed to go back to the hospital for a maternity check-up today. You forgot about it, didn't you?" 'Maternity checkup...'
Olivia was taken aback as she actually forgot about it.
"Tomorrow..."
Right after she said it, she recalled that they had to go to West York Village, she then said, "I'll go the day after tomorrow."
"No!" Zyla immediately disagreed. "I'll accompany you to your check-up first
tomorrow morning then we will go to West York Village. Sis Liv, you cannot afford to drag this out further. You are at the final stage of lung cancer and you're pregnant at the same time, when you move on to your later trimesters, your health will deteriorate even more."
Olivia pursed her lips. She was touched from the bottom of her heart and she reached out her arms to hug Zyla. "Thank you, Zyla."
Even a stranger was more caring towards her than John, how ironic.
Zyla took a glance at the time. "Okay, it's time now. Sis Liv, go take a shower and rest, you shouldn't be staying up late."
Seeing how Zyla was acting like her mother, Olivia smiled shyly. "How can you be so naggy at such a young age?"
"Don't speak nonsense and go quickly. I am your nurse now, for free!"
Olivia was afraid of her actually nagging and quickly went into the room after answering.
Back in the room, she noticed that it was already 10 pm. To her surprise, she was still quite energetic as she would usually be tired at this hour. She chuckled lightly after thinking about Zyla's smile, probably because she felt comfortable around this girl which made her more relaxed.
After taking her shower and lying in bed, John gave her another call.
She did not even think for a second and straight declined the call.
She even felt happy after declining his calls thrice.
She used to be the one who got declined back then, now that they were in an opposite position, it felt completely different as well.
In the end, she chose to turn off her phone so that she would not be bothered by it
further.
The next day, Zyla prepared breakfast and woke her up. They then went to the hospital for Olivia's check-up at 7 am.
The doctor glared at Olivia for a while upon seeing her. "How careless of you to forget about your appointment, Ms. Larson, lie down please."
Suddenly, the doctor paused and glanced at her suspiciously. "Ms. Larson, have you gone through any kidney surgery?"
"No, why?"
The doctor took another look and said solemnly. "You only have one kidney, do you
know that?"
'One kidney?
'Impossible, I have two."
"Doctor, can you take another look please?"
"I am pretty sure that you only have one."
Olivia was stunned for a very long time until she recalled something John had
mentioned before.
Dorothy had given one of her kidneys to John and she happened to have one less kidney...
