Chapter 184: Chapter 184

Ellis Olsen pushed open the door to the hospital room and walked in.

Seeing the atmosphere in the room was good, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he prepared to introduce everyone to his uncle, and so he began, “This is my…”

When he turned around, however, he didn’t see Uncle Olsen following behind him and was a bit stunned.

Uncle?

Ellis Olsen had no choice but to turn back, only to find Uncle Olsen leaning against the wall in the outside corridor.

The man, always so controlled and reserved, was now lighting up a cigarette.

He took a deep drag, then blew out a ring of smoke.

Ellis Olsen scratched his head: “Uncle, why aren’t you coming in?”

In the swirl of smoke, the man’s stern features revealed a moment of distraction as he said lightly, “Hmm, I’m good waiting here for the results.”

Ellis Olsen: ?

Even more puzzled, he said, “Uncle, you’ve come all this way just to see Mrs. Olsen. Are you just going to wait here for the results?”

Uncle Olsen’s gaze fixed ahead, he took another deep inhalation from his cigarette and nodded, “Yeah, I promised her that in life or death, we would never meet again.”

Ellis Olsen fell silent.

From that statement, he heard a profound sadness.

He opened his mouth as if to say something, but then didn’t know what would be appropriate.

He had previously speculated there must be something between Uncle Olsen and Mrs. Olsen, maybe they were old flames, or perhaps Uncle Olsen had let down this particular lady—a lady many once pursued, given Uncle’s charming past.

But he never imagined that their past would be so epic.

In life or death, never to meet again.

What on earth happened!

Ellis Olsen wanted to ask, but catching Uncle Olsen’s ashen face, he dared not inquire and could only cough, “Then…”

“The medical team from Clance will arrive in a while. I’ll stay here. You go in and keep watch,” Uncle Olsen lifted his head, revealing a resolute determination: “Absolutely cannot let her have an accident.”

Ellis Olsen nodded earnestly, then entered the hospital room.

At this moment, the specialists from Oceanion had finished their consultation and were all preparing to leave. Once again, the hospital room was left with just the Olsen family members.

Taylor Olsen looked blank, having sat by Mrs. Olsen’s bedside, holding her hand without moving for quite some time.

Apart from the doctors coming in for checks, he had kept this gesture for over four hours.

Isla Olsen glanced at Ellis, then curiously looked behind him before asking, “Young Master Olsen, I just heard you on the phone saying that the Olsen family might have someone here?”

Ellis nodded, “My uncle is outside.”

Isla was extremely surprised; it was actually Uncle Olsen!

And upon hearing this, Taylor Olsen also suddenly looked up, casting a severe gaze towards Ellis. He appeared momentarily dazed and panicked, gripping the hand of his wife, Jodie South, even tighter.

His whole body trembled faintly.

He feared that man would forcibly take her away under the pretext of Shirley’s sickness!

But Isla hadn’t noticed Taylor’s change at all and promptly said with keen courtesy, “Why doesn’t Mr. Olsen come in? He…”

Ellis explained, “Uncle won’t be coming in; after all, Mrs. Olsen is a woman, and he’s worried about disturbing her.”

This made Taylor sigh with relief. He turned his head to look at Mrs. Olsen on the hospital bed, his gaze growing even more determined.

Isla immediately walked out: “Then Jake and I will go pay a visit to Mr. Olsen, otherwise it would be too impolite.”

This is indeed as it should be.

Ellis Olsen thought so as he glanced at Lewis Horton and Kiera Olsen.

In Clance, many people flattered and sought to recognize Uncle Olsen, seizing any opportunity they could.

Although Lewis Horton was in his prime and full of vigor, his power and influence still fell short of the older generation’s accumulation; he might sit as an equal with Ellis, but in Uncle Olsen’s presence, he was still somewhat lacking.

So Ellis assumed that Lewis and Kiera would go together to pay their respects, and then he would say some flattering words on Kiera’s behalf…

Yet, to his surprise, the two of them were just staring at Mrs. Olsen on the hospital bed, as if they hadn’t heard their conversation.

Ellis didn’t bother with them.

Isla Olsen and Jake Horton arrived at the door and immediately noticed the distinctive man.

Even without bodyguards behind him, his presence was strong enough to make his extraordinary status immediately apparent.

Isla and Jake exchanged a look, both seeing the panic in each other’s eyes, but this was a good opportunity.

Jake swallowed and immediately stepped forward with Isla, “Excuse me, are you Uncle Olsen?”

Uncle Olsen glanced at them, his gaze moving past Jake and settling directly on Isla.

Isla, petite and delicate, it was hard to tell if she resembled Mrs. Olsen or Taylor Olsen more, but her demeanor made it clear she was raised by Mrs. Olsen.

His expression softened a bit, “You are Isla?”

Feeling privileged by his acknowledgment, Isla nodded, “Uncle Olsen, would you like to come in? My mother is in the room inside, there is a living room outside where you could sit and have a cup of tea.”

“No need.”

Uncle Olsen’s eyes were fixed on Isla as if he was scrutinizing her, or through her trying to see Mrs. Olsen.

But after a long look, he only felt that Isla paled in comparison to Mrs. Olsen.

It was like painting a tiger but only managing to get the skin.

She had a fine facade and demeanor, yet once she spoke, her eyes betrayed her nervousness, which was different from Mrs. Olsen’s indifferent exterior and the pride that emanated from within her bones.

Isla glanced at Jake, who immediately said, “Uncle Olsen…”

Following Isla’s lead, he called the man “Uncle Olsen,” and seeing no objection from the latter, became a bit more emboldened, “How long do you plan to stay in Oceanion? Have you not arranged a place to stay? Let me help you with that.”

Uncle Olsen gave Isla another glance, then said, “Fine, I’ll stay until Miss South wakes up.”

The name “Miss South” confused Isla and Jake for a moment before they realized he was referring to Mrs. Olsen, Jodie South.

Jake asked, “So, for now?”

“I will stay here for a while.”

Uncle Olsen’s gaze dropped, and it seemed like he was not inclined to talk anymore.

Jake immediately said, “Then I’ll keep you company. Isla, you go inside and stay with Mrs. Olsen.”

Isla also wanted to stay and charm Uncle Olsen, knowing that pleasing him would be far more beneficial than tending to a dying woman on a hospital bed.

But she understood that Uncle Olsen was here because of Mrs. Olsen.

So she nodded and was about to enter when Uncle Olsen suddenly spoke up, “If you need any help, just ask.”

Isla’s eyes brightened, “Okay.”

Then she gave Jake a glance, and he understood something, nodding subtly in acknowledgment.

Isla entered with a sense of triumph, and the black-clad bodyguards did not stop her from entering the hospital room.

Seeing that Lewis Horton and Kiera Olsen still had no intention of greeting Uncle Olsen, Ellis promptly interjected, “Ahem, Lewis Horton, my uncle is here. Aren’t you going to take your wife to greet him?”

After hearing this, Lewis pondered for a moment and then nodded, “Alright.”
