Chapter 316
Tyler was shocked, and his face quickly turned into a frown.
Naomi’s face turned pale when their eyes met; she looked completely drained of color. She stood frozen, while Tyler continued to hold Olivia’s hand.
In just a few short minutes, even Emma could tell something was wrong.
Olivia noticed Tyler’s silence too. She looked up in pain and shivered when she saw Naomi at the door. Softly, she called out, “Naomi…”
Naomi took a step back, realizing that Tyler’s eyes were only full of worry for Olivia, not for the baby. She thought that Tyler holding Olivia’s face so tenderly was not just a simple gesture–it was how a man acts toward a woman he cherishes deeply.
Olivia was leaning into Tyler’s embrace. Naomi wondered how they had gotten so close. Shouldn’t they be keeping their distance? What was going on between them?
Naomi just stood there, silent. Suddenly, she turned and walked away.
Emma quickly followed, calling out, “Ms. Naomi!”
Olivia let go of Tyler’s hand as he stood motionless. Then, Emma’s voice echoed again, louder and tinged with panic, “Ms. Naomi-”
Tyler sprung into action at the sound.
Olivia was still processing the situation when he released her hand and rushed out. She fell against the side of the bed as he left, a sharp pain shooting through her arm from the impact. But she just stared
blankly at the door. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Doctors and nurses rushed out of her room following the commotion. All Olivia knew was that Emma was frantically screaming for Naomi. The cries grew louder.
Tyler’s voice cut through the noise, commanding, “Get the ward ready now!”
Olivia had never heard him so distressed.
The corridor filled with urgent shouts from the doctor, “Inform the emergency department of the urgent situation!”
Alone in her bed, Olivia listened to the fading chaos outside. She could only grasp at the bedsheets, her stomach aching. She trembled and called out softly, “Is anyone out there?” The hallway quieted down; everyone seemed to have left. No one came back in.
