Chapter 61: Are You Ready?

Dave noticed her red cheeks and felt her forehead. He was surprised.

Without waiting for Bianca to answer, he lifted her into bed and quickly grabbed a thermometer.

Her fever was really high!

“You’re burning up. I need to take you to the hospital,” he said.

As he leaned down to pick her up, Bianca grabbed his wrist.

Struggling to keep her eyes open, she whispered, “I’ve already seen a doctor. The doctor said it was only for three days. If I take my medicine, I’ll be okay.”

Dave noticed a bottle of medicine on the nightstand.

He hurried to get water from the living room, came back, and helped Bianca swallow her pills.

Bianca’s frail figure on the bed, her lips tinged purple from fever, filled Dave with deep pity.

He went to the bathroom, got some cold water, soaked a towel, folded it neatly, and placed it on her forehead.

“Thank you, Mr. Evans,” she said softly.
