Chapter 626

The medication had been administered to Daniel Marshall and his temperature checked; his fever hadn’t subsided yet.

The doctor prescribed fever-reducing medicine, told Daniel to quickly take it, and advised him to drink plenty of hot water.

After a bit of rest, Daniel’s overall condition improved slightly, but he refused to stay in the hospital and insisted on returning to work at Marshall Corporation.

Adam Howard knitted his brow, sternly saying to Daniel, “In your current state, how long can you hold out? What if you pass out at Marshall Corporation and cause panic?

Representing not only yourself but the Marshall Corporation as well, any unusual movement from you could impact its share price. You can’t be so self-willed. Besides, Olivia Jenkins won’t have any pity for you, you need to stay in the hospital and recover first.”

Daniel stared indifferently at Adam, his hoarse voice filled with understated menace, “Who asked for your opinion anyway?”

“If it weren’t for our close relationship, I wouldn’t bother with you at all! You’re more than aware of how strong-willed Olivia is; she’s not a person who easily compromises. So, your pitiful state won’t elicit any sympathy from her, nor will it make her care for you.

Take this time to reflect. Think about where you went wrong and how you should act moving forward. In reality, what a woman wants is simple: love and care from you, and a sense of security. If you can provide that, she will traditionally and unwaveringly stand by you. Otherwise, she can be more ruthless than any man.”

Daniel glared at Adam, a hint of disdain surfacing on his face, “Self-righteous!”

Adam responded with a confident smirk, “Believe it or not, all my previous girlfriends were head over heels for me; it was always me ending the relationship, not the other way around. I can’t claim to be proficient in everything, but when it comes to handling women, I’m certainly far superior to you!”

Irritated, Daniel’s face grew even colder.

Suddenly, Martin Wallace walked in, a smirk faintly traceable on his lips, “Feeling really sick?”

Instantly, Daniel’s eyes flared with anger. He roared hoarsely, “Get out this instant! To your disappointment, I’m not dying!”

Immediately, Daniel broke into a severe coughing fit.

Simon Howard swiftly offered him a lukewarm glass of water.

Even though his parched throat was finally soothed with the water, Daniel’s coughing was still unbearable, and his handsome face turned immediately red.

Seeing this, Martin squinted his eyes, obviously amused at the situation, “Daniel, I’m here as a friend today, not as your wife’s divorce attorney pushing for a separation agreement.

However, if you change your mind and decide to sign the separation agreement, that is also an option. I’m ready at any moment, and always available to serve you both.”

Daniel picked up the glass of water and threw it at Martin.

With a loud crash, the glass fell to the floor and shattered.

Luckily, Martin dodged swiftly, managing to avoid the flying projectile, but he was still shaken up by the incident.

Finding a safe distance away near the door, Martin prepared to flee at a moment’s notice, “You find me pretty annoying right, Daniel? You wish I was gone, don’t you? Do you think I’m clingy like a burr?

All this is what your wife went through; she not only put up with it but did so with grace. So what’s so unbearable for you?

Being chased every day by divorce lawyers, you can only imagine how heartbroken your wife must have been. She has borne a lot more pain than you! Considering this, I feel my approach towards you has been kind. Had it been someone else, what do you think would have happened?”

Daniel continued to cough severely, unable to reply.

Daniel finally understood, this was retribution. He had never considered Olivia’s perspective, only thinking about himself.
