Chapter 1276
Olivia calmly walked out of the room.
In the corridor, she ran into Ike, who was closing his eyes and resting. When Ike noticed Olivia coming
out, he opened his eyes.
"Dr. Ophelia."
Ike was a careful man, and it was especially obvious in his cold and dark eyes.
Olivia had a feeling that he had always been wary of her.
She panicked inside. But on the surface, she maintained her calm as she took the initiative to greet
him.
"He fell asleep. If possible, let him rest for a while longer."
"Alright. Dr. Ophelia, can you take a look at me? My lower back has been hurting for almost a whole
day."
Olivia didn't bring any other doctors with her this time. So, even if she only wanted to leave at that
moment, she couldn't reject Ike's request.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe feared that he might notice something off.
"Sure. Lift up your shirt so that I can take a good look at you."
"We can’t do it here. If the envoys from the other countries saw US, it might spell trouble. Come with
me."
Ike started walking away. Olivia didn't want to follow him at all, for she still had to contact Undecim.
She quickened her pace. She wanted to treat Ike as soon as possible so that she could leave.
She had enhanced the medicinal effects so that normal people would sleep for a whole night, but
Wayne's willpower was extraordinary.
She wasn't sure how long the fragrance would keep him unconscious.
Twisting and turning, Olivia followed Ike into a small room. The door closed behind her.
Right as the door closed, Olivia keenly sensed that something was off.
The room was deserted, but she could smell a sort of fragrance in the air. With just a quick whiff, she
could easily identify the ingredients.
The fragrance induced sleep and hallucinations. It was even more potent than the fragrance she had
given Wayne.
But because of the special herbal procedure she went through, the fragrance had no effect on her.
She could sense murderous intent coming from Ike, who had his back to her.
'Oh, right, I just remembered that I have something to deal with. I'll treat you tomorrow, alright?" Olivia
opened the door, trying to leave.
A hand blocked her path. Ike had a tall build, and he had one hand against the door as cold air exuded
from him.
"Dr. Ophelia, you haven't treated me yet. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
His tone was different from normal, and he had a gloomy air about him.
"What do you mean?"
As Ike approached her, Olivia subconsciously backed away to put some distance between them.
"Dr. Ophelia, Mr. Maxwell likes you," Ike suddenly said out of the blue.
"I felt that."
"In all these years, you're the only woman he has ever fancied. Sadly, you already have a family."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIke spoke a sentence with every step he took. His terrifying presence got ever closer to Olivia.
Olivia had nowhere to run now. A little frustrated, she asked, "What exactly are you trying to do?"
'I just want to help you get out of here, Dr. Ophelia."
Olivia's eyes lit up. "Really? Can you really get me out of here?"
"If you stay by Mr. Maxwell's side, you'll only be affecting his emotions. The best option is for you to
leave before he gets too invested in it."
Olivia didn't want to get involved with Ike. But if he could get her out of there, it would be much better
than her trying to escape this place.
"That's wonderful news. I don’t want to stay here for even a minute longer."
"Well, then, you'll have to put up with this, Dr. Ophelia."
Under the dim lights, Ike's expression looked extra dark.
"I'll personally see you off, Dr. Ophelia."
When Ike said those words, Olivia felt a chill run down her spine. She had a feeling that Ike meant
something else when he said that he would see her off.
Ike handed her a pill.
"To make sure that you cooperate, please swallow this pill. By the time you wake up, you'll have left
Carathia."
