Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 669

Chapter 669

The manager would be to blame If anything were to happen to Mr. York.

The headquarters had full confidence in him and entrusted him with a managerial role at the subsidiary company. Yet, the subsidiary company went south fast to the point the CEO had to be here to deal with it.

The CEO caught a bad cold and fever from tiring himself out. Thankfully, it was detected early. Otherwise, the CEO's life would be at risk if the illness dragged on.

The manager had lingering fears at the mere thought of it.

"Where am I?"

Zachary tried to sit up.

"Don’t get up, Mr. York. Lie down, lie down. You still have a fever. You're on IV drips."

Furrowing his brows, Zachary’s memory came back to him.

He took a cold medicine from the pharmacy, but it did not work. His temperature kept rising until he passed out in the end.

Zachary was on a video call with Serenity before he blacked out. He ended the call before Serenity could catch him passing out on her.

Zachary wondered if Serenity was worried.

"Were you the ones who took me to the hospital?”

Instead of sitting up, Zachary felt his head and realized he was still burning.

"Mr. Bucham called me, so I used the spare key to get into your apartment. I took you to the hospital because you were unconscious. Mr. York, the medicine you bought didn't do much for you. You should've gone to the hospital early on. You gave us a scare."

Zachary was burning at 41 degrees Celsius by the time he reached the hospital.

His body temperature was measured at 38.9 degrees Celsius right now. The nurse was just here to check on his temperature.

The doctor said that Zachary got the viral flu. The fever would come and go together with a cough. Since Zachary had passed out from burning up, the doctor suggested he remain in the hospital for a few days.

Of course, the manager did not dare bring it up to Zachary for fear the latter refused to be hospitalized.

Mr. Bucham mentioned that the CEO's wife was rushing here. She must be on the way. Once the CEO's wife was here, the manager would explain Mr. York's situation to her, so she could make the CEO stay in the hospital.

The manager of the subsidiary company could sigh in relief.

"Josh?"

Zachary's voice was hoarse. "How did he know that I was unwell?”

"Your wife contacted Mr. Bucham.”
