Chapter 132: Recovery

I held Olivia in my arms the entire way back to the villa. I became worried as her cold, pale skin became flushed and hot. I took her to the bedroom ordering the servants to prepare a warm bath for her. I quickly worked to remove her wet clothes and marveled at how slim and light her body was.

Has she always been so small? No, she was petite but her body had been strong and healthy, full of life the last time I was with her.

Once she was undressed, I lifted her and carefully put her in the waiting bath. She groaned a little and began to move as I submerged her body but she quickly calmed down and relaxed against the tub.

“Would you like some help, Mr. Peterson?” a servant asked from the door.

“Where was your help before she left here?” I snapped. “Just prepare some warm tea and listen out for the doctor. I will take care of her.”
