Chapter 233 - 233: How Could It Be?



He stood up and said in a husky voice, "Olivia didn\'t come back late yesterday. I knew she would see her cousin off, so I didn\'t think much at first. After eleven, I was a little anxious, so I called her. No one answered the phone. When I was ready to go out to find her, I received a call from the police. They said that Olivia was found seriously injured in the bar called Hot Bird. It seemed that she had fallen down the stairs..."

He choked and stopped here.

"Olivia and I went shopping in the afternoon, and we separated after dinner. Why did she go to the bar? How did she fall down the stairs for no reason? Did the police find anything?" Savannah was burning with anxiety.

"I don\'t know. The police said they were investigating and would not be able to reveal any progress." Matt said helplessly.

Savannah took a look at the ICU worriedly. "How\'s Olivia now?"

"The doctor said she had intracranial bleeding. It\'s not a slight injury. Her life isn\'t in danger temporarily, but...we don\'t know when she\'ll wake up, and it\'s quite possible that..." Matt\'s voice broke even more.

"And what?" Savannah had a bad feeling.

"It\'s probably that she\'ll never wake up." Matt gritted his teeth and said no more.

Did it mean Olivia could be a vegetable? She\'s so young... How could it be?

Savannah felt groggy, falling down, and was just in time to be held by Dylan\'s strong arms. She regained her balance and ran to the door of the ICU, "I want to see Olivia..."

"There are regular visiting hours in the ICU. We can\'t see her now. I\'ve only glanced at Olivia once since yesterday..." Matt sobbed.

Dylan saw the disappointment on Savannah\'s face, knowing she wanted to see her good friend now. He turned his head and made a sign to the bodyguard standing at the end of the corridor.

The bodyguard immediately understood what Mr. Sterling meant. He turned around and left. A few minutes later, the bodyguard came back with a nurse.

The nurse led Savannah and Matt outside the ICU.

Through a glass window, Savannah saw Olivia lying in bed in the ward.

Olivia, who laughed and joked with her yesterday, was now lying dead in bed with her head wrapped in white gauze and a ventilator on her nose and mouth.

Savannah covered her mouth. Her heart sickened within her, and she almost cried out.

"Olivia, what happened to you?"

"Why did you go to the bar alone and fall down the stairs?!"

Matt looked at Olivia with red-rimmed eyes.

Walking out of the ICU, Savannah threw herself into Dylan\'s arms and wept.

Dylan pressed her head on his chest, patting her back gently, and let her cry. When she finally calmed down, he said softly, "good girl, don\'t cry."

Savannah knew this was not the time to cry. She dried her tears and walked up to Matt, saying, "Matt, please take care of Olivia these days."

Matt always joked and fought with Olivia like a little boy, but when such a serious event happened, he behaved much more mature.

"Olivia\'s my girlfriend, and we planned to marry this year. I\'ll never give up on her. Savannah, that\'s fine, you may rest assured." He said as he gave a firm glance at the door of the ICU.

Savannah almost burst into tears again. She nodded and left the hospital with Dylan.

Before getting in the car, Dylan stopped and looked at her sullen face. He tucked a strand of her messy hair to the back of her ear and kissed her on her forehead softly. "Don\'t worry. When you went into the ICU, I asked the bodyguard to tell the hospital director to take good care of Olivia. She\'ll be fine."

Savannah looked up at Dylan with her tearful eyes, and a wave of emotion swept through her heart. She knew that with his order, the hospital would not ignore Olivia.

"Thank you, Dylan." She bit her lip and said.

He never cared about other people, but this time, it was an exception.

It wasn\'t because he became a kind and gentleman, but because Olivia was the woman\'s good friend and the only same-sex friend.

"But there\'s one more thing I want to ask you..." Savannah looked at him tentatively, her eyes sparkling.

Dylan raised his eyebrows.

"Olivia\'s now become like this... All her family and relatives are not here except Matt. I want to come to see her every day, can I?" She knew that he wouldn\'t say anything if she came to the hospital occasionally. But if she wanted to come every day, he would probably be unpleased, so she had to ask for permission in advance.

Under her eyes shining with expectation, he finally nodded, "let the bodyguards follow you every time you went out. Don\'t come back too late."

Savannah busily nodded, surprisingly happy when he agreed.

***

After Olivia\'s accident, Savannah went to the hospital every day.

Old Sterling was much better, and he knew Olivia was Savannah\'s only friend, so he didn\'t say anything.

A week later, Olivia\'s vital signs stabilized. She had passed the critical period and was transferred from intensive care to the general ward, but there was no sign of recovery.

Each time Savannah went to the hospital, she sat at the bedside speaking to her, hoping she would wake up. Matt would tell her about the progression of the investigation.

She still wondered how Olivia could go to the bar alone after departing with her, and then fell down the back stairs.

***

This morning, Savannah went to the hospital as usual. Before she entered the ward, she saw Matt speaking to a man in a police uniform at the door of the ward, heatedly.

"Matt, what\'s wrong?" She hurried over.

"The officer said the result of Olivia\'s case had come out. It turned out to be that Olivia fell down the stairs herself!" Matt clearly disagreed with the findings.

It was not only Matt who had a problem with the result but Savannah also. "Officer, is this the end of the case? She couldn\'t have fallen down the stairs by herself. There\'re too many doubts! Did you check the surveillance videos around the bar?!"

"We don\'t need you to teach us what to do! Of course, we did! Surveillance at the bar door showed Olivia had gone into the bar alone, and no one was with her. She must have fallen downstairs herself." The officer said roughly.

"Have you checked the security videos of the back stairs after the crime?" Savannah did not give up!

"The back of the bar is a storage area for odds and ends, and few people go there. There\'s no monitoring."

"That is, it\'s not at all clear whether Olivia fell downstairs herself or was pushed downstairs by others! Then how can you close the case like this? " Savannah gnashed her teeth.
