Chapter 808
Logan replied slowly, “I told him your name when we were rescued, Ms. Fordham.”
“Yes, it’s… Mr. Irving who told me. I’ll leave you alone for now,” the doctor replied.
For some reason, Olivia felt like the doctor was running away. He had left the room a little too urgently.
“Ms. Fordham, you should get changed. I’ll bring you the warm milk,” Logan said calmly.
“Alright.”
Olivia was alone in the room with Alicia.
She carefully took off Alicia’s clothes.
Alicia looked as tall as other kids her age and there were no signs of a premature birth. Her b*dy was also pale and clean. There were only minor scratches on her hands.
It was clear that Jack took good care of the children.
Olivia wrapped Alicia in a large men’s shirt. Then, she changed out of her wet clothes herself.
Olivia was given the same shirt as Alicia, which covered her up to her upper thigh. Then, she put on the men’s trousers. It was loose, but it was still better than nothing.
After a few minutes, Logan knocked on the door.
“Come in,” Olivia said with a nod.
Logan then brought in some food. Besides the warm milk, he also brought some granola for nourishment.
“Ms. Fordham, how are you feeling? Do you feel any discomfort?” he asked.
Olivia had been immersed in the joy of being reunited with her daughter that she only just started to feel the chill.
“I feel a little cold,” she answered.
“Cold?” Logan frowned. The room’s heater was on, and he felt warm even with just a shirt on.
But Olivia felt cold?
Logan realized she might have caught a cold, so he quickly handed Olivia the warm milk. “Drink some of this. It’ll warm you up.
“Okay.”

Olivia finished the milk in a few gulps. Then, she noticed that Logan was still in his wet clothes.
“Why haven’t you changed out of those clothes yet? You’ll catch a cold,” she said.
“I’ve always been healthy, so I don’t get sick so easily. I’ll change when I have the time. I’m a man. This is nothing.
“What’s the situation right now?” Olivia started to think about her other child.
“The battle between the military and the pirates is still ongoing. The situation is pretty rough right now. But you don’t have to worry. Tobias’ ship might have been hit, but no one was injured. They’ll be safe when the pirates are cleared out,” Logan explained patiently.
But Olivia still felt uneasy. The boy was still so young. She had jumped into the water in a hurry and left him alone. Surely, he was terrified.
“What’s wrong, Ms. Fordham? You seem quite worried. Tobias is an experienced seafarer. He knows how to handle these situations. The seas used to be much more dangerous than this.”
However, Olivia’s brows were still tightly knitted.
Then, Logan’s gaze fell on the little girl. He asked, “Why are you so concerned about her? Do you know her? Who is she?”
“She’s my daughter.” Olivia didn’t keep it from Logan because he would find out after Alicia regained consciousness anyway.
Logan appeared surprised. “But you look so young. How would you have a daughter her age already? Where’s your husband? How could he leave you alone out here? Did he leave you and the kids because you got terminal cancer?”
“He…” Olivia’s expression turned cold. “I don’t have a husband. He’s dead to me.”
“You must hate him so much, right?”
Olivia didn’t want to talk about it anymore. “Alright, I’ll be here with her. You should get changed.”
“Okay.” Logan left the room quietly.
Olivia wasn’t sure if she was seeing things, but she felt like Logan seemed dejected as he walked away.
Meanwhile, Logan’s expression became icy right after closing the door. Then, he went to the bathroom on the second floor.

He stood before the mirror and took out the colored contact lenses he wore to reveal his black pupils.
It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
