Chapter 174
Olivia stayed in the base for less than five or six days, and the problem was resolved.
She was busy working tirelessly for five or six days. Now that she was suddenly free, she was a little
helpless, and a sense of emptiness welled up in her heart.
She leaned back in her chair and did not move for a long time.
Just as Olivia was in a daze, Berina pulled a chair over and sat down. “Olivia, are you free recently?”
“Yeah,” Olivia nodded and replied indifferently. Her expression was lazy and relaxed.
Upon hearing Olivia, Berina was overjoyed. She licked her lower lip and said, “I have a favor to ask
you.”
Olivia looked up quietly and gestured for Berina to continue.
Berina hurriedly said, “I have a nephew who has been in poor health. He’s always sickly. I don’t know
how many famous doctors he has seen, but they can do nothing to treat him. I know you have good
medical skills, so I came over to beg you to treat him.
“I know it will take a lot of effort to treat him, so I’m asking if you have time.”
Then Berina’s eyes burned as she stared at Olivia.
Olivia frowned slightly.
Berina’s heart skipped a beat. Thinking that Olivia might find it troublesome, Berina quickly said, “My
nephew lives at Layfield. It’s very close to Evervale.”
Olivia’s brows were still tightly knitted.
Berina was disappointed. She thought that Olivia was unwilling.
Although Berina was a little discouraged, she did not vent her anger. Her tone was gentle as she said,
“I know it is a little hard for you. Olivia, if you don’t want to go, forget it. Don’t worry about me.”
A faint smile appeared on Olivia’s face. She tilted her head to look at Berina and said, “You’ve
misunderstood.”
Berina looked up.

Olivia explained softly, “It’s not that I don’t want to go, but I’m not confident.”
Olivia was never confident mindlessly. Although her grandfather always said that her medical skills
were excellent and often brought her to treat patients, it was prudent to cure a disease and save a life.
It had been almost six years since Olivia had treated a patient, so she did not dare to act rashly.
So that was how it was.
Berina heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, “It’s fine. My nephew is born weak and needs to
recuperate slowly. Please go and take a look at him. If you can treat him, go ahead. If not, forget it. We
can’t force such a thing.”
Berina sighed at this point. Her tone was suddenly a little melancholic. “I don’t have a family in my life,
nor do I have any children. I only have one brother and one nephew. When I was young, I was focused
on work and didn’t even have a family. Now that I’m old, I suddenly feel guilty about them. I want to
make it up to them and do something for them.” Berina laughed self–deprecatingly. “It’s funny. I realized
I couldn’t do anything when I started to miss my family and wanted to do something for them. My
brother has a big business. He’s rich and powerful. He has nothing to ask me for, and I can’t help him.
“After much thought, I can only beg you to help me to go and see my nephew, which is my best effort.”
Olivia went to Layfield with Peter and Tyson. The higher–ups arranged for Peter and Tyson to protect
Olivia.
Peter and Tyson had followed Olivia for two years before. Then, Olivia worked in the laboratory of
Ember University for many years. Without any danger for Olivia, Peter and Tyson were summoned
back by the higher–ups.
Now that The Nimbus Gaze was about to be completed, the higher–ups were worried that something
would happen to Olivia, so they asked Peter and Tyson to come back to protect her.
In the Patterson family, Gabriel Patterson, who had a big belly and a fierce expression, received a call
from Berina, his sister, and immediately arranged for someone to pick up Olivia.
Lindy Patterson, Gabriel’s wife, was trimming the flowers at the side. She didn’t mind Gabriel’s call, but
her body stiffened slightly when she heard

the words proficient in medical skills.
She took a deep breath and looked at Gabriel expectantly. “Is it Berina on the phone?”
Looking at Linda’s expectant and careful gaze, Gabriel felt both
heartache and helplessness. He quickly gave her a heads–up. “Don’t get your hopes up. Berina just
said to give it a try. It might not work. She’s a well–versed doctor who Berina knows. Her surname is
Taylor. She came over on the way to take a look at Anthony.”
“Since Berina introduced the doctor, the doctor should have excellent medical skills. Berina has been
strict in her work and wouldn’t say anything she’s not confident in.” Lindy’s face was full of joy. She had
respected Berina, the scientist.
Knowing that the doctor was coming, she did not even trim the flowers. “I’ll get the servants to tidy up a
room for the doctor. Don’t neglect her.” Gabriel opened his mouth and wanted to persuade Lindy, but
he didn’t say anything when he saw his wife’s sparkling eyes.
Olivia arrived quickly. She had called in the morning and arrived before
noon.
Gabriel and Lindy came out to welcome Olivia. Their son, Anthony Patterson, wanted to come out, too,
but Lindy gently rejected him. Recently, the weather was cooling down severely. It was not suitable for
Anthony to go out.
When they came out to welcome Olivia, Lindy especially changed her clothes, looking like she was
welcoming an esteemed guest. Her face filled with joy.
However, the moment she saw Olivia, her happy expression froze, and she was speechless for a long
time.
If not for her cultivation, Lindy would have lost control on the spot.
Did Berina take Anthony seriously? Why did she bring such a young lady
over?
On the other hand, Gabriel was still holding up. He welcomed Olivia through the door with a smile. “Ms.
Olivia, thank you for coming all the way here. Let’s have a meal first. The food is ready.”

looked a little tired.
Previously, she did not feel it when she was busy. Now that she was free,

all her fatigue surged up. Her head was dizzy, and she felt uncomfortable. Gabriel hesitated, then
nodded decisively. “Then I’ll have to trouble you, doctor. This way, please.”
Was Gabriel really going to let the young lady check on Anthony? Lindy panicked and subconsciously
tugged at Gabriel.
Gabriel did not mind her. He just led Olivia into the house.
Seeing that, Lindy was helpless. She couldn’t embarrass Gabriel in front of outsiders. She could only
purse her lips and follow them.
Anthony lived in a separate building that was built differently from the rest of the building. It was a bit
like a small hospital with all kinds of medical equipment.
The temperature there was also slightly higher than in other places. When Olivia arrived, Anthony was
reading in the study. He was wearing thick home clothes and a blanket on his back. His face was pale
and cyan even though he covered his body so tightly.
Hearing the commotion outside, he looked up and said, “Dad?”
“This is Ms. Olivia,” Gabriel introduced. “She’s here to take a look at your health.”
Anthony was also surprised by Olivia’s youth. However, there was no contempt in his eyes. He was as
calm as water, revealing an indifference that would not be affected by everything.
He seemed to be used to all kinds of doctors.
He was filled with anticipation to see the doctors but returned in disappointment.
Therefore, regardless of whether the doctor was young or old, it did not matter if their medical skills
were superb. What mattered was to make his parents happy.
It was probably the only reason why Anthony was still alive.
