Mila thought it would be pointless to tell Phoebe. She decided to phone Cole.

She switched on the speakerphone and put her phone on the table. Then, she helped Nathan to wipe the sweat from his forehead with a

tissue.

“Hello.” Cole sounded groggy, as if he hadn’t quite woken up.

“Cole, it’s me, Suzanne.”

“I saw the caller ID. Why are you calling at 3:00 am?”

“Has Nate been sick?”

“Yes, he’s been sick for days. He refuses to go to the doctor, won’t take his medicine, and has been working non-stop. Lucas and I tried

to convince him, but he wouldn’t listen.”

“He passed out at my place. What should we do?” Mila kneeled next to Nathan and touched his forehead

“General Morrison has gone to Hoffis Manor to look for you?” Cole

exclaimed.

“Yes.” Mila felt her heart bleed when she saw how exhausted Nathan

looked.

Cole slapped himself on the thigh. “This is far too impulsive. General Morrison doesn’t usually act this way. Why would he be losing it when he’s with you?”

“I’m sorry, Cole. What should we do now? Shall I call a doctor to

Hoffis Manor, or will you chere and take him to the hospital?” Mila asked with guilt.

“No, don’t let anyone at Hoffis Manor know that General Morrison has cto look for you. If they find out, our spy there will be exposed.”

“I understand.” Mila checked the clock. Getting Nathan to the hospital at this hour was indeed a challenge.

“Do you have any medicine?” Cole asked.

“Yes.”

“Give him something for fevers and colds. Then, let him have srest. He can leave on his own as soon as he wakes up.”

“All right.”

Mila ended the call. She tiptoed into the living room and found the medicine in the first aid kit. After returning to the room, she locked. the door and quickly approached Nathan.

She removed his shoes and socks, lifted his feet onto the bed, and covered him with a blanket. Afterward, she poured a cup of water and placed a fever-reducing pill in Nathan’s mouth.

“Nate, swallow it. Nate,” Mila said softly.

Nathan didn’t move a muscle. Mila poured the water into his mo but the water ran out of the corners of his lips. She was on the b of tears, fearing that every second of delay would cost him his

“Nate, wake up and take the medicine.”

She wiped the water from Nathan’s lips with a tissue. In her panic, she steeled herself and put the fever-reducing pill back in his mouth. Having taken a sip of water, she pressed her lips to his.

The water filled Nathan’s mouth, and the pill was swallowed. But she remained still for a long while with her eyes closed.

She was unwilling to part from his lips. Her tears fell one by one on

his cheek, and she could feel his warm breath on her.

After a long moment, Mila unwillingly pulled back. Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked at his face.

She trembled as she touched his eyebrows, nose, and lips. Each touch felt like an electric current that ran through the tips of her fingers and penetrated her entire being.
