Chapter 183 Uncle Olsen

Chapter 183 Uncle Olsen

Keira stood up excitedly in an instant, ready to speak, but Taylor was even more agitated than her. He sat directly on the hospital bed and began to call out, “Shirley, Shirley… can you hear me?”

….

Taylor’s eyes were red, and tears filled his eyes as if he was about to cry.

Keira pursed her lips and said nothing, still staring at Mrs. Olsen. However, her eyes only moved slightly before stopping again, seemingly falling back to sleep.

Keira frowned.

Taylor became puzzled as well, “Shirley? Shirley? Wake up…”

Mrs. Olsen was motionless.

Keira faintly felt something wasn’t right. She stepped forward, only to see Taylor was even more panicked than she was, and he immediately pressed the call button on the wall.

Very soon, the doctor entered the room.

He was startled by the bodyguards outside and got infected by the confrontational mood, but as he was used to dealing with VIP ward patients, he quickly calmed down.

“What’s the matter?”

The doctor asked.

Taylor asked, “My wife’s eyes were moving just now, and it seemed like she was going to wake up. Why hasn’t she woken up yet?”

The doctor also checked the time.

The nurse beside him immediately reminded him, “The patient suffered from anger-induced collapse, and we just checked it. By all accounts, she should have woken up within half an hour, but it’s already been forty minutes…”

The doctor immediately said, “Let’s have a look.”

The doctors and nurses began to bustle about.

Outside the door.

Lewis also frowned. He took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Tom. “Bring over the best experts from Oceanion!”

After sending the message, he didn’t enter the room but continued to stand guard.

Isla became a bit anxious and looked at Ellis.

But she noticed that he was persuaded by Lewis, not intending to call the bodyguards over again, and was only standing outside, craning his neck to wait for results.

The door was open, and they could hear the doctor’s conversation inside from where they stood.

Isla frowned.

This couldn’t be happening… with Ellis’s arrival, the influence of the Clance Olsen family was present, which could counterbalance against Lewis. If even he lost sympathy for her, what would she use to fight with Keira?

With these thoughts, Isla’s eyes flickered.

She suddenly rushed toward the hospital room, crying out, “Mom, how is my mom?”

But she was easily stopped by a black-clothed bodyguard.

Isla struggled fiercely, but the bodyguard’s arm was like an immovable barrier, preventing her from breaking free and entering the door.

This was the effect Isla wanted.

She lowered her eyes and suddenly turned to kneel in front of Lewis with a loud “thump”!

Everyone was stunned by her actions, and then they heard her crying out, “Uncle Lewis, I beg you, let me in. That’s my mother… what exactly is wrong with her? Why hasn’t she woken up? Uncle Lewis, I know I haven’t been nice to Keira usually. I’m sorry! May I kneel to her? Please!”

Her face was streaked with tears.

Jake couldn’t help feeling pity and immediately spoke up. “Uncle Lewis! The Horton family follows your lead, but you can’t be this tyrannical! Mrs. Olsen is Isla’s mother! Isla has the right to enter!”

Ellis immediately knit his brows, “Lewis, let her in.”

Regardless of the relationship between Mrs. Olsen and Keira, Isla was her daughter, and Mrs. Olsen would definitely want to see Isla first when she was gravely ill!

Lewis looked toward the hospital room.

Keira had heard their argument from the start, and now Isla’s crying was annoying. She suddenly turned her head and fiercely looked at Isla. “You can come in, but if I hear you crying again, I’ll personally throw her out the window!”

Isla immediately closed her mouth.

The bodyguards outside heard this and hesitated for a moment. Initially, they wanted to wait for their boss’s instructions, but then they remembered Lewis’s demeanor earlier in the day, so they immediately stepped aside without hesitation.

Isla finally entered the door.

It was then that Ellis turned to Lewis, “Without Keira speaking, were you really not planning to let Mrs. Olsen’s biological daughter in? Lewis, you’re being too tyrannical! Let me tell you, Mrs. Olsen was a friend of Uncle Olsen, and with me here, I absolutely won’t allow you to bully her!”

Lewis paid him no heed.

Next to him, Jake’s gaze intensely focused on the ward, where Isla’s slender figure seemed to be swaying on the verge of collapse as if she would fall at any moment.

She had knelt down with too much force just before, and now her knees hurt a bit, so after walking a couple of steps, she bent over to massage her knees. Without a doubt, they must have bruised.

He addressed Lewis. “Uncle, even if you won’t consider my feelings, you should at least be kinder to her for the sake of the Horton’s heir in Isla’s belly!”

These words made Lewis’s eyes darken.

The child in Isla’s womb belonged to that Connor Hill in jail, and both Keira and Isla knew it.

Keira hadn’t exposed it because she didn’t want to make a fuss, and also because Jake now seemed more like a stranger to her.

But upon hearing this, Lewis couldn’t help but retort. “Are you certain that it’s Horton blood?”

Jake immediately frowned. “Uncle, what do you mean by that? I know what I have done. Aren’t I clear on that? The child in Isla’s belly is mine!”

Lewis scoffed. “I suggest you still find the time to do a check-up, lest you become a cuckhold husband.”

But Jake still didn’t believe it. “Isla is the Olsen family’s eldest daughter, not someone who messes around. She’s never even dated anyone from childhood. She has only had me in her heart. If it’s not mine, then whose could it be? Uncle, come to think of it, you and Keira have been married for two years with no news. Is it possible that there’s something wrong with you?”

Lewis immediately gave him a cold look.

Jake got scared and lowered his head, muttering, “My mom said that we must protect the child in Isla’s belly at all cost. You don’t have children of your own and are jealous of mine… it turns out she guessed right!”

Lewis chuckled coldly, feeling that he really shouldn’t have said anything.

He looked at Jake mockingly. “Whether the child is yours or not is none of my business. I was just kindly giving you a reminder. After all, she was pregnant before marriage, right? Are you sure you’re her only man?”

Jake was taken aback, his tone unsure, but he stubbornly retorted, “Of course! I’m certain!”

“As you wish.”

Leaving behind those words, Lewis entered the ward and walked up to Keira.

Seeing this, Jake tried to follow but was stopped by the black-clothed bodyguards.

Inside the ward.

After completing all the examinations, the attending doctor frowned. “The patient’s condition is a bit strange. She should have woken up by now, but she remains unconscious. Yet, all her vital signs are normal and there’s no sign of waking. That’s really rare…”

Upon hearing this, Keira immediately grew anxious.

Next to her, Lewis took her hand. “I’ve already had Tom call in all the neurology experts from Oceanion. Mrs. Olsen will be alright!”

After hearing this, Keira nodded.

Outside, Ellis was dumbstruck.

What was going on here?

Wasn’t Mrs. Olsen supposed to be fine? Why hadn’t she woken up?

He was getting a bit panicked when his phone rang at that moment.

Ellis hesitantly looked down and saw Uncle Olsen’s call come through!

Ellis jumped with a start and immediately answered, “Uncle Olsen…”

“Which ward?”

A deep, mature voice came through the phone.

After Ellis reported the ward number, he was confused. “Did you know Mrs. Olsen was sick? I mean… how did you know?”

To keep Uncle Olsen from worrying, he hadn’t mentioned it at all!

But as soon as these words left his mouth, he thought of the bodyguards who followed him, some of whom were Uncle Olsen’s men…

Ellis understood, then asked further, “Are you coming to Oceanion? Just bring some of Clance’s experts with you… Mrs. Olsen’s condition doesn’t seem good here.”

The voice on the other end became urgent, “How bad is it?”

“She’s been unconscious all this while,” replied Ellis. As he was speaking, he heard the honking on the other end and hesitated to ask, “Are you on your way here? Where are you now?”

“Hospital entrance.”

The icy voice was laced with unease.
