Since Richard was always strict about discipline, he wouldn't allow Shirley to act recklessly.

“Alright! Since you're free over there, take good care of Zacharias. Ensure he makes a swift recovery, as he’s

needed to assist your great- uncle with work matters.” He supported his daughter's decision.

“Yeah, | know, Dad.”

“Your mom would like to speak with you for a moment.”

After Richard finished speaking, a gentle voice cthrough. “Shirley.” “Mom, what's up?” Shirley felt a sudden

rush of nervousness. Her mother wouldn't start prying, would she?

“Nothing. | heard you volunteered to look after Zacharias in the hospital. | was a bit surprised. Are you two just

friends?”

“Yes, we're just friends.” Shirley began to feel uneasy.

“Just friends?” Angela wasn’t entirely convinced. As a woman, her intuition told her that her daughter's proactive

care for Zacharias went beyond mere friendship.

“Mom, it’s just friendship. Please don’t jump to conclusions,” Shirley said seriously, wanting to put an end to her

mother’s wild speculations.

“Alright, it’s clear that you've grown up, becresponsible, and know how to care for people.” Angela let the

matter rest.

“Mom, I'll hang up now. Take care of yourselves!” After speaking, Shirley hung up the phone, letting out a small

sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, at the base's lounge, Angela hung up her phone. She asked her husband, “Could our girl actually like

Zacharias?”

Richard understood his wife's implication and asked with a smile, “Is that a problem?”

“Of course not; it’s not a problem at all. I'm just saying, our girl is still so young, but her taste seems pretty

good.” She couldn't help but feel that their daughter was quite fortunate. Everything seemed very promising

when she considered Zacharias’ looks, family background, and prospects.

“Well then, let's look forward to it! It's about tfor our girl to venture out on her own. We can’t protect her

forever,” Richard said. Angela also smiled. They only had this one precious daughter, and they had high hopes

for her future.

Shirley sat outside and chatted with Freddie, discussing their recent business trip. After learning her identity, he

was cautious about sensitive topics, but otherwise, they had an open conversation.

They talked about regional development and current affairs, and before they knew it, two hours had passed.

She went in to check on Zacharias from tto time. When she went in again, she suddenly noticed his face was

slightly flushed, and he was sweating profusely on his forehead. When she wiped the sweat, she discovered he

had a dangerously high fever. She muttered, This is bad! He has a high fever.

Shirley pressed the nurse call button and went to the doctor's office. The doctor immediately cto check on

Zacharias.

“Immediately start physical cooling for Mr. Flintstone,” the doctor said.

At this moment, Zacharias, who had been sleeping all this time, woke up. The high fever made the corners of his

eyes slightly red. His voice was hoarse as he asked, “What's wrong with me?”

“You suddenly developed a high fever. Right now, we'll start with physical cooling for you,” the doctor explained.

At the stime, a nurse was preparing the alcohol for cooling. One of the other nurses lifted his blanket and

unbuttoned his hospital gown. Shirley watched as the doctor and nurses worked frantically, her heart pounding.

As the nurse with the cooling towel approached Zacharias’ neck, he suddenly stiffened. He turned to the nurse

uncomfortably and said, “Give the towel to her. Let her helpwith it.”

Shirley was suddenly called out. She was a bit dazed but quickly understood. The nurse also blushed. Even

though it wasn’t the tto be blushing, the sight of Zacharias unbuttoning his shirt was still undeniably

attractive to any woman.

Under the doctor's guidance, Shirley took the towel and began to help Zacharias cool down. This time, he didn’t

feel uncomfortable, and he even relaxed.

“Mr. Flintstone just took medicine, so we'll use physical cooling to lower your temperature for now. If it doesn’t

work, we'll resort to medication, the doctor explained. They couldn't afford to be careless with Zacharias”

medication.
