210 Meet Him

Mrs. Olsen was startled slightly when she heard the name “Uncle Olsen”. “How do you know him?”

Upon hearing this, Keira knew that Taylor probably hadn’t told her that Uncle Olsen had arrived. No

wonder Taylor seemed a bit guilty when Mrs. Olsen asked him to leave.

However, Keira wouldn’t shy away from these matters and replied, “Ellis informed him of your unconscious state, and he rushed here overnight. He’s been in the parking lot downstairs for over twenty-four hours.”

When Mrs. Olsen heard this, she clenched her fists, a touch of worry suddenly coloring her face. She turned her head and asked, “Has he been to the ward?”

“No.”

Keira became curious. “The first day he arrived, it

seemed like he stood outside for a while, and then he stayed in the parking lot downstairs. And today, it seemed like he wanted to visit you in the ward, but Taylor stopped him.”

“It’s not Taylor’s fault,” Mrs. Olsen answered. “I won’t

see him. We made a promise that we would never meet again, not even in death.”

Keira was stunned.

Never meet again, even in death?

Even if they were once lovers, and even if they had broken up, would anyone speak such ruthless words?

The attitude of Uncle Olsen toward Mrs. Olsen made it

clear that he was deeply in love with her. What exactly happened between them?

She was curious, but seeing the sorrow on Mrs. Olsen’s

face, she knew there were some questions she couldn’t

ask.

Mrs. Olsen changed the subject. “How is old Mrs. Horton doing?”

Keira sighed, “She’s quite elderly, and the prognosis isn’t optimistic.”

Even with a miracle drug, it could only extend her life by two or three more years.

Mrs. Olsen nodded, then looked at her and said, “Keira,
