Chapter 132

Catlin hurried to catch up with Chris.

Seeing her approach, Chris was somewhat surprised. “Mrs. Ashford, why are you here?”

Catlin took a moment to steady her breath.

“Chris, tell me, are you here because of Stephanie?”

Chris stared at the phone, his face turning ashen.

Kevin lowered his head silently. Clearly, this matter was related to her.

For some reason, the question made him uncomfortable, especially the way she mentioned Stephanie.

He recalled that Catlin always called Olivia by Ollie, yet Stephanie–her own daughter–was referred to so distantly.

And Stephanie her biological daughter!

For the first time, Chris clearly saw the distinction Catlin made between the two.

At that moment, he suddenly understood why Stephanie had always harbored such resentment toward the Hart family.

Kevin was also taken aback. He didn’t expect Catlin to ask such a question. Stephanie was her biological daughter after all.

Just two years ago, the Hart family had even tried to arrange a match between her and Mr. Giovanni.

Now, what was this attitude?

Chris narrowed his eyes slightly. “Did Olivia send you?”

Thinking of what Olivia had said over the phone, he found her behavior almost childish.

He had been running around nonstop while she was undergoing treatment. Now his company was facing big problems keeping him away from the hospital.

And Catlin had come to question him, which annoyed Chris.

Catlin hesitated, her breath stilled. “No, it’s not that. I just…”

Faced with Chris‘ stern gaze, she faltered.

“Well, it’s just… You know, Olivia is sick. She’s very vulnerable right now.”

“She knows you and Stephanie are both in Mount Spring, and she won’t even take her medicine.”

Chris‘ expression darkened. “What?”

Hearing that Olivia was refusing to take her medication, his concern grew.

Noticing the flicker of worry in his eyes, Catlin pressed on. “You know, she relies on you a lot.”

“If she were in a better state, she might be more rational, but right now, she’s fighting a battle between life and death.”

Thinking of Olivia’s condition, Catlin felt a pang of sorrow.

Chris seeing her distress, felt his irritation fade.
