Wife’s Return English Novel Chapter 135
Chapter 135 Alone Together 0 Finished Catherine was King’s trusted assistant and had a significant influence at Horizon Ventures. Her words were essentially a representation of King’s. Given the severity of the situation, Olivia naturally agreed without a second thought. “Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of King.” “Thank you, Olivia.” The voice full of gratitude from Catherine came through the phone. Olivia couldn’t help but laugh. “Since when did you become so polite?” Catherine also laughed, then asked, “How’s my godson doing?” “He’s doing okay. The doctor said it was just a seasonal flu. Once the fever subsided, everything will be fine.” “That’s good. I just wish I wasn’t in such a rush to get back home, or else I would have visited him.” Catherine sighed, her tone laced with a hint of helplessness. “Don’t worry, there will be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future.” Olivia comforted. The two of them exchanged a few more words before ending the call. Benjamin was standing behind her. As soon as she hung up the phone, he asked, “Is Catherine planning to return to her home country?” Olivia turned around, looked at him, nodded, and said, “So, you should help out at King’s.” “Ms. Olivia, what about you?” Benjamin turned to glance at the ward.

When Olivia returned to the ward, she was met with the sight of Nathan’s displeased expression. Even his gaze toward her was filled with a chilling coldness. She couldn’t help but furrow her brows. Who had upset him this time? “Are you busy, Ms. Monroe?” Nathan asked coldly, a hint of sarcasm lacing his words. Olivia was utterly clueless as to how she had offended him, finding the whole situation inexplicably baffling. “It’s fine, just dealing with some personal matters,” she responded nonchalantly. The hospital room fell quiet once again. Back when she used to work for him as a maid, the two of them hardly ever had anything to talk about. One reason was that Nathan seldom spoke, and the other reason was her awkward status at that time, which made it inappropriate for her to share her many thoughts with him despite her desire to do so. Even when she was bullied at school, she always chose to endure it in silence. After all those years, coupled with their intertwined history, they had nothing to say to each other….
