Chapter 99
Olivia walked out of the consultation room in a daze while clenching the results in her hands and her mind was all over whatever the doctor mentioned.
'Only one kidney, I only have one kidney...'
Even if she had an idea in her mind, she dared not continue to imagine.
Zyla waited for her in the corridor and upon seeing her lost expression, she quickly went up to her. "Sis Liv, what's wrong? Is it the baby? Or did your cancer get worse?" Olivia was taken aback and she shook her head. "No... Nothing."
"Sis Liv, you do not look okay at all. If there's anything, we can settle your illness first then have another baby."
Compared to the baby, Zyla was more concerned about Olivia's health.
She had witnessed Olivia being heavily injured in the hospital bed and she could never imagine how she would be able to have kids.
Olivia pursed her lips and forced a smile. "I am fine, really."
She showed the examination results to Zyla. "Look, the baby is healthy, so is my body." 'Just that I have one less kidney.'
Zyla took a look and confirmed that the results were okay before being rest assured.
The two stepped out of the hospital and after seeing Olivia approaching the driver seat, she immediately stopped her. "Sis Liv, sit behind, I will drive," "I am really okay."
Zyla shook her head. "Listen to me, go sit behind and I will drive."
Seeing how Zyla insisted, Olivia smiled. "Alright, but is your hand okay?"
Zyla looked at her bandaged arm and said, "It's not an arm fracture, just a few scratches, no big deal."
Olivia felt that this girl was kind from the bottom of her heart and she was pure and optimistic as a person which made her very approachable.
She chuckled lightly. "I guess it's on you then, I'll be in the passenger seat so I can assist in looking at the GPS."
"Okay."
The two went toward the west upon departure and Zyla drove slower than usual for fear that Olivia might be uncomfortable.
Zyla had been the one initiating conversations along the entire journey and Olivia would occasionally speak a little.
She placed her right hand on her right abdomen and began to feel weird.
"Zyla, can you replace out the information about the kidney transplant surgery two years ago in this hospital?"
Zyla was taken aback. She then nodded. "Should not be a problem, I'll just need
some time, who is it?"
"Dorothy Ellis."
"That wicked woman went through a kidney transplant before?"
Olivia frowned. "Yeah, I want to know about her body condition and if she has any transplant rejection symptoms, etc."
Zyla was not completely convinced. "Understood, leave it to me."
"Thank you, I'll pay you after this is done."
"It's fine... okay."
Xyla initially wanted to refuse her but she was afraid that Olivia might feel awkward, so she accepted it.
After reaching West York Village and locating house No.112, they noticed that the door was closed and had no idea if there was anyone inside.
Zyla went to knock on the door after getting out of the car. "Hello, we are from the national census, is anyone home?"
There was no response coming back from the compound.
Zyla gently pushed the rusty iron door and it was actually unlocked, yet no one could be found in the compound.
Olivia also walked in and had a bad feeling in her mind.
'Ben must have escaped!'
At that moment, a lady passed by and saw the two. "Are you two looking for Ben Wilson? Did he owe you money or something?" "Yeah, he did."
"I am afraid that this is a bad time. He gained some money earlier and repaid all his debts to the people and loan sharks here. He then disappeared after moving his mother into the old folks home the next day."
