Chapter 995: Oliver's Poisoning Tina frowned. Her instincts told her that for Oliver to speak those words, something serious must have happened.

She questioned him, "Why do you want me to leave?"

"Oliver, tell me, where are you feeling unwell?"

When Oliver remained silent once again, Tina moved closer to check his wrist.

As she expected, Oliver frantically pulled away. His voice trembled, almost breaking into sobs. "Don't touch me! If you touch me, you'll get sick like me."

Tina narrowed her eyes, her tone gentle yet probing. "What illness? Did someone hurt you or put something on you?"

"Tell me, so I can help you."

In the end, Oliver, still a child, couldn't hold back. He burst into tears, his small hands pointing randomly at parts of his body. "Here, here... it's all dirty. It hurts so much."

Dirty?

Tina tried to discern something from Oliver's face, but the dim lighting made it impossible to see clearly.

Before she could reach for the switch, the crying suddenly stopped.

The silence was unsettling. Tina turned to find Oliver had fainted, likely overwhelmed by his emotions.

She quickly pulled the curtains open and performed a brief check on him. Confirming that he was unconscious but stable, she immediately called Nathan.

Something was wrong with Oliver's body, but Tina couldn't determine what it was yet. Taking him to the hospital for a full examination was the safest option.

Nathan, who was just outside, answered Tina's call and didn't waste a second. He pushed the door open and hurried in.

In the living room, Hayden was lounging with his legs crossed, enjoying a snack. Nathan's abrupt entrance startled him.

Nathan paused for half a second, then quickly regained focus. "Where is Mrs. Farrell?" Hayden froze, the fruit in his mouth dropping to the floor with a thud. Though confused by Nathan's sudden appearance, he pointed toward the room.

Giving Hayden a look that practically screamed "good luck," Nathan strode toward the
