Everyone could see that there was something wrong with Mason. Tatiana started to panic.
She had never seen him in such an unsightly state in all the years she had been married to him. Who was this woman?
Tatiana wasn't the only one who thought Mason was looking at Olivia with a weird expression. Everyone else thought the same.
Naturally, Ethan felt that, too. He wrapped his arms around Olivia. Both of them were soaked and looked a little downtrodden, but his gaze was cold.
"Mr. and Mrs. Heath, as you can see, she's Olivia, my ex-wife. She's not anyone suspicious. She just wants to keep a low profile and not stand out.
"She only came to perform the operation because I begged her to do so. I didn't expect her kindness to be repaid with such insults.
"Ms. Heath has tried to humiliate her repeatedly. We endured all of that because we cared about Mr. Heath's health.
"This time, she pulled yet another trick to humiliate Liv publicly. I'm sorry, but I can't bear to see her being humiliated time and again.
"Since your recovery has been coming along well, you should find yourself another doctor."
Olivia was only partially soaked, but Ethan was completely drenched. He dragged Olivia away with a stormy expression.
No one expected things to go down like that. Linus walked up to them.
"It's cold out. You should get changed, or you'll catch a cold. We can talk about other stuff later."
Ethan's temper flared up. "There's nothing to talk about. I'll be leaving."
He ignored everyone as he took Olivia away.
A gust of chilly wind blasted toward them when he opened the door. Although Olivia was only partially soaked, she still felt chilly. But Ethan remained expressionless.
"Are you cold?"
"I'm not. I have spare clothes in the car."
Kelvin already had the air-conditioner on and the clothes prepared in advance.
Only Olivia's jacket was wet. So, she took it off and dried her hair. Ethan changed into a new set of clothes.
On the other hand, Krystal and Tatiana had been making Olivia's life difficult. Krystal even did something like that in public just a moment ago. It was an insult to both Ethan and Olivia.
Mason was furious, but he had already suppressed all his emotions.
"I'm sorry, everyone. Krystal has ruined this banquet. I'm feeling unwell, so I will be heading home to rest. Linus, Yale, take care of the guests for me."
"Alright, father."
Krystal was a disgrace, but they couldn't do the same.
As for Yale, he felt extremely uneasy.
He had wanted to put Ethan on the spot, but the miracle doctor turned out to be his ex-wife.
Mason didn't say anything to him, but he would definitely remember this.
He told them to tend to the guests, but what he really meant was for him to fix the mess.
