Chapter 62
That slap wasn’t light.
After it landed, even I was stunned.
Ferris’s face stung fiercely, his brows furrowed tightly, a flash of disbelief crossing his eyes.
But the next second, his body swayed, and he suddenly collapsed toward me.
I was startled and instinctively wanted to back away, but he pressed down on top of me.
You-!”
cried out in alarm, but in the next moment felt his scorching body temperature, burning hot even through our clothes.
Ferris?”
tried to push him away, but he seemed to have lost consciousness, his head resting against my shoulder and neck, his breathing rapid and heavy.
frowned and pressed my hand to his forehead–it was indeed frighteningly hot.
He had a high fever.
omething seemed to strike my heart heavily, and the anger I had been harboring instantly dissipated by more than half.
How could you get such a high fever without saying anything?”
asked in a low voice, but he was already unresponsive, just frowning tightly, as if even in unconsciousness he refused to let go of his alpha stubbornness and igilance.
quickly helped him lie back on the bed, my movements careful but urgent.
Although that slap had been merciless, seeing his pale face now, I inexplicably felt guilty.
Really… too proud for your own good.”
muttered under my breath, but still took a towel, dampened it with water, sat by the bedside, and gently wiped his forehead bit by bit.
‘erris’s tightly closed eyelashes trembled, seeming to hear my voice, yet he sank deeply into the drowsiness brought by the fever.
Aurora?”
comforted him: “You’ll feel better after taking medicine and sleeping.”
seeing Ferris close his eyes and his breathing gradually steady, I left the bedroom.
This time, I didn’t soften.
I spent the night on the sofa in the downstairs living room.
When Ferris woke up, his head hurt badly and he still felt somewhat feverish.
