chapter 41 Sorry, you got the wrong person
The figure ran out of the operating room quickly, but Xavier's movements were faster than the figure.
Almost in the blink of an eye, he pinned the person against the wall.
"Dr. Xue... am I a such ferocious beast that you have to hide from me like this?" Xavier smiled wickedly. He raised his hand to remove the mask off the fully-armed person he had restrained against the wall.
"Do you think you can escape this time around too?" Xavier asked, grabbing the other person's mask and pulling it away forcefully, but the coquettish smile on his handsome face froze instantly.
Even though not many had seen Zoey personally, all information about her showed that she was Chinese with dark hair, eyes, and an Asian appearance.
But right now, the woman in front of Xavier was blonde with blue eyes and light skin.
"Sorry, C. You got the wrong person!" Alice curled her lips into a smile, pushed Xavier away effortlessly, adjusted her sterile clothes, and then walked away charmingly.
"F*ck!" Even though Xavier was usually calm and composed, he was currently so angry that he kicked the wall.
He was fooled and played by Zoey.
With a dark face and bloodshot eyes, he squeezed out a sentence from his gritted teeth. "Good on you, Zoey Xue!"
There had never been a woman who could tease him like this.
Xavier thought, "Very well. I'll make you pay for this!"
After saying that, Xavier couldn't help but narrow his eyes and lick his lips. Gloom filled his face. "Just you wait, one day I will catch you with my own hands, and you will never escape ever again…"
The man quickly returned to the operating room. Although he knew that the cunning Zoey must have slipped away by now, Sofia had just finished her surgery, so Olivia might need him to be there for her now.
Xavier felt that he had changed. In the past, he didn't care at all whether others needed him, especially when it came to women.
Sure enough, when he returned, he saw Olivia and a group of medical staff pushing Sofia out of the operating room on a gurney.
"Ms. Olivia?" Dr. Zhang looked at Olivia in shock. "You… You…”
"Oh, Dr. Zhang, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble." Olivia scratched her head and smiled sheepishly. "Initially, I ran into look at my mom. Who knew I would head to the wrong area and walked into the changing room? Coincidentally, someone walked in from the other door, and I was knocked unconscious. They only woke me up after the surgery ended."
"Is that so?" Dr. Zhang was confused.
When he went to find Olivia, he never entered the women's changing room. Therefore, he couldn't refute Olivia's words.
"I have already explained it to Dean Zhao," Olivia replied calmly.
Dr. Zhang didn't ask any more questions after seeing Dean Zhao nodding his head.
Tyrone, on the other hand, sneered mockingly. "Hit by the door? Why didn't you say that you just came back from fooling around with other men because you need to collect the surgery fee?"
In his eyes, Olivia was precisely the kind of person who would do anything for money.
Emma hurriedly patted Tyrone on the back. "Dad, don't get so angry. Olivia is just temporarily confused and strayed from the right path. Just wait for Aunt Xue to recover! With someone around to control her, she will abstain from doing indecent acts."
Mia also nodded. "Yes, Olivia is not a bad person. She must have been led astray because nobody was around to teach her when she was abroad. Ah, it's all because I'm incapable to aid you in the company's matters that Xia Construction ended up the way it is today. If not, Olivia wouldn't have to do this to pay for her mom's surgery fee."
Doctor Zhang's face darkened as he listened. "Mr. Xia, Mrs. Mia, Ms. Xia, didn't you know?"
The three of them looked up in shock and heard Dr. Zhang say, "The miracle doctor Zoey Xue performed this surgery for free on Ms. Xue. There are no charges. On the contrary, our hospital will reduce her subsequent medical costs because her surgery provided us with such an excellent learning opportunity."
He was implying to Tyrone, Mia, and Emma that Olivia had no reason to sell out her body for the medical fee and that they were slandering her.
"How is that possible?" Emma shouted agitatedly.
Dr. Zhang spoke righteously. "Ms. Xia, it's true. The hospital only speaks the truth."
"It's real? How…”
Emma was rendered speechless by Dr. Zhang's serious expression as her face turned red from embarrassment.
Mia hurriedly pulled Emma back, "So that's the case. That's great. I knew that heaven would help a worthy one like Sofia, and she will surely get better. We are so thankful for Dr. Xue's help this time around!"
Dr. Zhang praised and complimented Zoey again when Mia mentioned her, revering her like a god.
Olivia touched her nose helplessly and thought she was just an ordinary person and not as impressive as Dr. Zhang said.
However, the feeling of being praised in person was great.
Suddenly, she felt someone staring at her sharply.
Olivia raised her head and looked into Xavier's penetrating gaze as her heart skipped a beat.
"Did he notice something was amiss?"
"Where did you hurt yourself?" Xavier walked over to Olivia and lowered his head to gaze at her.
"Ah, I bumped my forehead. It's fine." Olivia lowered her head guiltily.
She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she always felt that Xavier's eyes were too penetrative, as if he could see through everything.
"Were you in there just now?" There was a hint of wickedness in Xavier's eyes.
Olivia nodded vaguely. "Yes. Yes."
"So, you must have met Zoey Xue in the changing room?" Xavier probed further.
Olivia raised her eyes and looked at Xavier, who was still trying to catch his breath. She raised her brow. "I think so, but I didn't get a clear look at her."
"When did she leave? Did she leave through the front door or the back door?" Xavier's voice was hoarse with a hint of seduction.
Olivia mused inwardly, "He's suspecting me."
She shrugged. "How would I know that? I was dizzy when someone rose me. I regained a slight bit of my clarity after they went out."
"Really?" Xavier narrowed his eyes, feeling that something was not adding up.
Vic had been standing guard at the back door the whole time, but nothing happened there.
Therefore, Zoey must have left through the front door.
He initially concluded that Alice had diverted him away just now to allow Zoey the opportunity to leave, but now he had another idea in mind.
A new yet unrealistic possibility formed in Xavier's mind when he saw Olivia coming out of the operating room.
He thought, "Yes. How could Olivia be Zoey? They are two different people!"
Xavier stared deeply at Olivia again, but Olivia had already pushed Sofia toward her ward. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Left without a choice, Xavier told Vic to get a copy of the surveillance camera footage at the operating room entrance while he went to the ward with Olivia.
Olivia watched the doctor prepare the medicine for Sofia, and after ensuring Sofia's safety, she turned her head and saw the three members of the Xia Family at the door. Her expression
darkened.
"Are you going to confess by yourself or should I reveal the truth for you?" Olivia crossed her arms before her chest and looked at the three members of the Xia Family coldly.
"Olivia, what do you mean? Is that how you speak to your elders?" Tyrone got upset as he glared and fumed at Olivia.
"Don't be pretentious!" Olivia cut off Tyrone's words, "You know what you did to my mom, so don't wait for me to reveal the truth. If not, you guys wouldn't be able to bear the consequences!"
