Chapter 250
Olivia frowned as she thought of Dorothy.
‘I wonder what John will do to clear Dorothy’s name?’
Then she shook her head with a bitter smile. ‘Forget it. Why am I thinking about these? I don’t need to
worry myself with all this.’ Then she went downstairs to get
some sun.
However, Olivia did not expect to meet Mrs. Jameson again when she went out to get some sun the next
day.
What a small world.
Olivia did not want to argue with Mrs. Jameson, so she pretended not to see her and waited for her to
walk away first.
However, before she walked to the side, she did not expect a man to run out with a dagger, shouting,
“Stop!”
Olivia froze and stood where she was, not daring to move.
‘What’s going on here?

The nurse tried to call the police, but the man grabbed Mrs. Jameson standing nearby, and put the
dagger to her neck.
“If anyone calls the police, I’ll kill this woman!”
The nurse recognized Mrs. Jameson and knew that nothing must happen to her. She quickly put down
the phone and held up her hands. “Calm down, sir.”
“Calm down? All you do is make sarcastic remarks. Besides asking me for money, what have you ever
done? You want my sister dead!”
“Sir, we’re a hospital. How can we let a patient die? Calm down, I…”
The nurse tried to call security, but the man pressed the blade on Mrs. Jameson’s throat. It was gentle,
but it started bleeding instantly.
“Shut up!”
The nurse shook with fear. If something happened to Mrs. Jameson here, she would be dead meat. She
dared not speak again.
“Get me your best brain specialist!”
“Okay, okay.”
The nurse quickly dialed the phone, and the man snapped again, “Put it on speakerphone. If you say one
more word, I’ll kill this woman!”
Frightened, the nurse nodded repeatedly but dared not say anything extra.
“This is the nurses’ station. I’m looking for Dr. Lucas. We have an emergency patient needing a specialist
consultation here. Please come over immediately.”
A cold voice came from the phone. “Okay.”
After hanging up, the man’s emotions were still out of control.
“You’re a place that gobbles people up. My sister was hospitalized for a year, and a decent doctor never
even came!
“My sister is dying, and you remind me to pay the hospital bill everyday!
“Do you know how much money you’ve collected this year? How dare you charge people when they’re
dying?”
As the man spoke, he became increasingly agitated. His hands shook as he held the knife. He motioned
it back and forth across Mrs. Jameson’s neck. Mrs. Jameson was so scared she dared not speak for fear

more.
As Olivia watched Mrs. Jameson burst into tears out of fear, she suddenly thought of her mother.
“Sir.” She stepped out and slowly approached the man.
The man noticed her and immediately looked over with alarm, “Stand back!”
Olivia pressed her lips and said with a faint smile, “Are you afraid of death, sir?”
The man froze for a moment, not understanding what she meant. “Who would not be afraid of death?
Don’t come over again. Or I won’t go easy on her!”
“I’m not afraid.” Clutching her chest with her right hand, Olivia said with a bitter smile, “I’m dying of
terminal lung cancer.”
The man stiffened at this.
“Not only that, but my husband also cheated on me, and my parents are dead. If you need a hostage,
switch me with the woman you’re holding. And you’ll commit less. sin, won’t you?”
Mrs. Jameson froze and looked at Olivia in disbelief.
No one wanted to die, not even people with cancer.
‘What is she trying to do?’
Olivia saw that the man was persuaded and took a step closer. “Hold me hostage, sir.
