31 Her Contributions
After the white tablet entered her mouth, it immediately emitted a refreshing, cool sensation.
Her itching throat seemed to be wrapped in fresh water, and it felt much better.
Mrs. Olsen swallowed the tablet without drinking
water.
“Cough….”
She started coughing again.
She smiled bitterly. Just now for a fleeting moment, she almost thought the tablet was working.
What a wishful thinking.
Mrs. Olsen lay in bed and closed her eyes.
She has been dealing with chronic neurotic coughing for over two decades. She had taken numerous medicines and consulted so many experts over the years, but it hadn’t gotten any better…

“Shirley? Shirley! Wake up!”
Mrs. Olsen slowly opened her eyes and saw Taylor standing next to her bed, the entire room bright as day.
Were the hospital’s incandescent lights so bright?
Feeling a bit confused, she asked, “What time is it?”

“Ten in the morning!” Taylor looked at her anxiously. “You should eat something or else your blood sugar will drop…”
Mrs. Olsen was stunned.
She turned her head in confusion. Only then did she notice that the light in the room wasn’t coming from the lamps but from the sunlight!
She actually slept through the whole night!
How could that be possible?
It must be that bottle of medicine! The one Keira ga her!
Aunt South, who was next to her, was so excited that she had tears in her eyes. “Madam, the sleeping pills

the doctor gave you yesterday really worked! You áctually slept for a full ten hours!”
Mrs. Olsen was astounded. “What sleeping pills?”
Aunt South looked toward Isla, “Mr. Jake got them for you. He heard that you were having trouble sleeping, so he specifically found a strong sleeping pill and added it to the medicine you were taking. We didn’t tell you because we were afraid that if you kept thinking about it, you would have even more trouble sleeping. We didn’t expect it to work this well!”
Mrs. Olsen hesitated.
Was that so?
But sleeping pills only aid sleep. When she wok p today, she clearly felt that her throat was muc clearer!
Her gaze fell on the pillow next to her, where the plastic bottle without a label was.
She would try it again tonight…
If she only took sleeping pills and not this medicine, she would then know which one actually worked.

Thinking this, Mrs. Olsen fell silent.
Meanwhile, Taylor looked toward Isla and spoke with relief. “My son-in-law is amazing. I heard that there was a major flu outbreak recently, and the inpatient department is full. They couldn’t find a vacant ward yesterday, and it was Jake who pulled a lot of strings to arrange this one. We are really grateful to him!”
Only then did Mrs. Olsen find out that the ward was also arranged by Jake. “He’s such a good kid.”
Seizing upon the moment, Isla said, “Mom, since Jake is so kind, you should help him too.”
Mrs. Olsen asked, “How can I help?”
Taylor thought of something and said, “Is there some difficulty Jake faces at work?”
Isla nodded, sighing, “His family wants Jake to manage the R&D department, but the researchers there are all senior and not very obedient to Jake. If we could invite Dr. South there, even just as an external technical support, then Jake could stabilize his position.”
Having said that, Isla looked toward Mrs. Olsen.

As she expected, she saw a struggle and hesitation on Mrs. Olsen’s face.
Mrs. Olsen has her own principles in dealing with people and matters. She didn’t like to exploit kindness to seek benefits, but she was even more afraid of owing favors.
Mrs. Olsen hesitated a moment, then finally said, “I’ll ask Dr. South, but if he doesn’t agree, then let it be.”
A smile spread across Isla’s face. “Great.”
Based on her experience, whenever Mrs. Olsen asked for something, Dr. South never refused.
Mrs. Olsen took out her phone, found Dr. South on WhatsApp, carefully chose her words, and sent message. “South, do you have a minute? I have
to ask.”
When Keira received this message, she had just brought old Mrs. Horton back up from a walk.
She read the message with a frown.
Why did Mrs. Olsen suddenly contact her? Was there
an issue?

Was there something wrong with yesterday’s drug? Or did it have an allergic reaction?
That drug was actually still in the clinical trial stage, and she had originally planned to wait for the trial to end before giving it to Mrs. Olsen. However, seeing Mrs. Olsen’s severe condition, she took it out in
advance.
Anxious, Keira asked the nursing staff to bring old Mrs. Horton back to her ward and headed for Mrs. Olsen’s
ward in a hurry.
Lewis, who was working in the outer office area, saw his grandmother walk in. He instinctively looked behind her but didn’t see that slender figure.
His eyes flickered. “Where’s Miss Olsen?”
Old Mrs. Horton replied, “She’s gone to see her
mother.”
Lewis raised an eyebrow, “Did something happen to
Mrs. Olsen?”
Old Mrs. Horton immediately became anxious. “My granddaughter-in-law indeed rushed over just now.

Oh, you brat, hurry up and check up on her!”
Lewis pursed his lips.
After a moment of contemplation, he rose to his feet.
Tom follow him in a hurry.
Keira ran into Mrs. Olsen’s ward, only to find the ward was filled with many people.
Not only was Jake there, but even Poppy was present.
Somebody must have said something because everyone was laughing. However, the merriment quickly died when she stepped into the room.
Keira stood at the doorway, feeling rather
unnecessary.
Mrs. Olsen seemed alright.
She lowered her head and was ready to leave.
Mrs. Olsen wanted to stop her, but seeing all the people in the room, she knew it was best for Keira to leave for now. They could meet alone when there was

time…
Poppy, however, opened her mouth. “Hey, isn’t that Miss Olsen? Are we not good enough for you now that you’ve cozied up to old Mrs. Horton?”
Keira didn’t respond and turned to leave, but Poppy grabbed her,
“I heard you’re trying your best to please old Mrs. Horton, staying by her bedside all night and doing all sorts of unpleasant chores. Do you think she’ll consider you as close as their own kin? What kind of daydream are you having? You’re nothing but a plaything to them!”
Isla hastily said, “Don’t say that. Old Mrs. Horton really
likes Keira…”
Poppy interrupted her loudly, “Likes her? Look at what Mr. Jake does for you. That’s what people do for someone they like…”
Poppy turned toward Jake Horton, flattering him. “I heard that yesterday they couldn’t free up any ward at all. There are many families with decent background

who want to get into the hospital, but all of them have to wait in line. It was Mr. Jake who helped us out! That’s how Mrs. Olsen got into the VIP ward!”
Jake Horton glanced at Keira and smiled humbly. “My uncles doesn’t know about this matter. He would have helped if he knew. I just did what little I could.”
“Your little contribution has been of great help to our
home!”
Poppy turned to Keira Olsen and mocked her again, “Even if Mr. Olsen knew, he wouldn’t care about you. No matter how hard you try to please him, he’s just toying with you like any Tom, Dick, or Harry…”
Keira clenched her fists but didn’t want to argue here to avoid disturbing Mrs. Olsen’s rest.
Lewis, who had just arrived, stood outside the ward and heard everything.
His face was stone cold, and he cast a glance at Tom.
Tom took the hint immediately. He cleared his throat and entered the room. “Mrs. Olsen, I’m here to convey Mr. Horton’s regards. How are you finding the ward? Is
