chapter 79 Take a step to speak
It was already evening when Olivia arrived at the Si residence.
The Si Family had prepared dinner, but no one was in the mood to eat it.
After multiple attempts to contact Zoey, they finally learned from Xavier that the miracle doctor, Zoey, would probably show up at their house tonight.
And so, the Si Family waited for Olivia to come over, but there was no sight of her.
Of course, the reason why they wanted Olivia to come over was not because they were really worried about whether Dennis lived or died.
Instead, they were concerned about their fates that were in Dennis' control.
If Dennis died, most of The Si Family's assets would be given to Xavier, which would be like death to the rest of the Si Family.
So, as soon as Olivia arrived at the entrance, the housekeeper, who had been looking out, greeted her warmly and brought her to the dining table.
After being anxious for two to three days, the Si Family members finally calmed down upon laying eyes on Olivia.
One by one, they invited Olivia to sit down and enthusiastically served her tea, water, rice and the dishes for fear of remissing her.
Olivia, on the other hand, didn't rain on their parade. She sat down silently and tucked into the dinner.
Even though Zachary, Yelena, and Michelle used to treat Olivia as a monster, they now treated her like a goddess that even Xavier couldn't get a chance to serve the dishes to Olivia.
Olivia was slightly annoyed by them as she voiced casually, "Mr. Zachary, Ms. Yelena, Ms. Michelle, there's no need to be so courteous. I can eat by myself."
There was an evident impatience in her voice.
The siblings immediately halted in their actions. Smiles were plastered on their faces as they tried to appease Olivia, but no one dared to make another.
Xavier wasn't close with the Si Family members, but he knew they always acted in an arrogant and overbearing manner.
This was the first time he had ever seen them being put in their place in such a way.
A smile flashed across his devilishly handsome face. Xavier picked up some vegetables and placed them in Olivia's bowl. "Did you sleep well during the past two days?"
Olivia's expression relaxed, and she nodded with satisfaction. "Yeah. I did."
Living in that refreshing and comfortable room with the sound of birds chirping and the scent of fresh flowers, coupled with the comfortable bedding and environment, it went without saying that Olivia had rested well.
She had to applaud Xavier because he knew what was life's pleasure, and he definitely knew how to enjoy them.
Although the place where he lived looked basic, it was good enough to make the guest feel comfortable.
And that suited Olivia's liking perfectly.
She mused, "He looks exhausted compared to the last two days. I'm sure he feels pressured staying in the Si residence."
After eating and drinking, Zachary warmly invited Olivia to the living room for a tea session that was served together with fruits.
Olivia waved her hand dismissively. "Thank you, Mr. Zachary, for your kindness, but there's no need. It's more important for me to look at old Mr. Si's condition."
Before Olivia left, she specifically told Xavier to arrange for more people to keep an eye on Dennis. However, she still discovered a problem when she checked on Dennis.
She scanned the crowd with her sharp eyes and saw everyone looking at her nervously, except one with his head lowered. There was something amiss about his expression.
Olivia and Xavier exchanged glances, and they both saw an understanding look in each other's eyes.
Then, Olivia gave Dennis a pill. She didn't say much except to tell the Si Family calmly that Dennis' body was functioning as normal.
The poisonous insect in his body had been around for far too long, so they should continue to bathe him in the medicinal concoction, and Dennis should continue consuming his medicine.
Many toxins had been eliminated from his body, and although he might still puke blood in the future, the situation wouldn't be as dire as before. NôvelDrama.Org content.
Someone in the group frowned and peered at Olivia when she said Dennis was fine.
Olivia didn't take the person seriously as she continued speaking.
It wasn't until she was done that Zachary said, "Dr. Xue, when will my dad regain consciousness?"
The crowd became anxious again when they heard Zachary's question.
There was a chance for things to turn better if Dennis regained consciousness, regardless of whether he could recover or not.
"Let's not rush it. His body is too weak now, and waking up will only cause him more pain. To alleviate his pain, it will take about ten days to half a month for him to regain consciousness using my treatment."
After Olivia finished speaking, she gave another prescription to Yaron.
"Starting tomorrow, prepare the medicinal concoction for bath and decoction according to this prescription."
By now, Yaron had become a modest man.
He watched Olivia treat Dennis with his own eyes. He also secretly checked Dennis' body in the past two days and found that the latter's body condition had changed.
It was no longer a pool of stagnant water like before but was filled with vitality and life.
No one knew Dennis' body condition better than Yaron.
He boasted that his medical skills were good, but there was really nothing he could have done for Dennis.
Now that Dennis had gotten better under Olivia's treatment, Yaron had finally admitted defeat.
The strong always obeyed and bowed down to those more powerful than them.
Therefore, Yaron nodded seriously at this time. "Noted, Dr. Xue."
He hesitated momentarily before saying, "Dr. Xue, can I add you on WeChat? I've encountered some emergencies in the past two days, and I'm not very good at dealing with them. Adding you on WeChat will be a great convenience for me to contact you if such a situation occurs again in the future."
Olivia didn't hesitate. She nodded and readily gave Yaron a series of numbers.
Yaron immediately took out his cell phone joyfully and added Olivia on WeChat.
However, on the side, Xavier's expression turned gloomy.
He mused, "Hey! He treated Olivia as an enemy two days ago, but now he is starting to butter up Olivia while displaying that expression?"
But it was too late for Xavier to stop Yaron from adding Olivia on WeChat. With a dark expression, Xavier pondered how to suppress Yaron so the latter could not have the chance to bug his wife.
After settling Dennis' matters, Olivia wanted to leave. But Yelena and Michelle stopped her.
"Dr. Xue, we have something that we want to talk to you about in private. Can we step aside and have a chat?" Yelena looked at Olivia with a pleading look.
"Yes. That's right. Dr. Xue, we won't take up too much of your time."
Olivia knew that the opportunity to earn money had come.
So, she nodded. "Okay."
The two invited Olivia to a guest room. Then, they scrambled around, begging Olivia to help them cure their illnesses.
In fact, their illnesses were not a big deal, but Yelena didn't know how to exercise restraint, so she took advantage of her wealth to fool around with men everywhere, and that significantly weakened her body.
Michelle, on the other hand, had been relatively chubby since she was a child. Her husband kept criticizing her appearance after she got married. Afraid that her husband would cheat on her, Michelle tried every means to lose weight. As a result of her actions, her stomach and body were extensively damaged.
Although both of these matters weren't a big deal, they would significantly affect their health, and as time passed, the negative impact would become more evident.
It was challenging to cure their illnesses in the hospital. Even if they could be treated in the hospital, it would take a long time, and there was no guarantee that they would be healed.
But Olivia was different.
After feeling their pulses, she said lazily, "If you two trust me, you can get a course of medicine from me first. After you guys finish the course, I will prescribe medicine to you guys again according to your physical condition."
The two of them naturally agreed with great joy.
Olivia gave them their prescriptions generously, asking them to buy the medicines themselves. Then, they should take the medicine along with the pills Olivia gave them once a day and then return to her for consultation in half a month.
As for the cost of treatment?
Olivia only asked for two million dollars from each of them, which was a drop in the bucket for Yelena and Michelle.
The three of them had satisfied smiles on their faces when they came out of the room.
