Without making much noise, Aunt Neile tiptoed to the bedside and touched Luca's forehead.
It was still hot to the touch.
She looked at Luca's red face and frowned. If her fever still would not go down after 30 minutes, she planned to
inform Luke to send her to the hospital.
After Aunt Neile left, Luca slowly opened her eyes.
Someone came in just now. Was it Luke?
Luca turned sideways and looked at the other side of the bed to see that no one was there...
Luke was at the company. How could he be here? She was thinking too much.
Luca rolled over and had her back facing the empty spot beside her as if someone was hugging her from behind
and whispering softly to comfort her.
Sick people were usually much weaker than normal.
There was no denying that what Luca needed most right now was Luke's whisper of comfort and attentive care.
She snapped her eyes shut at the thought of that. “Don't think about it.."
Luca constantly hypnotized herself to not fall too hard as she was about to leave anytime.
The thing Luke hated the most was deception and betrayal, and she had already done the former. Although it was
painful to do so, there was no turning back after lying to him.
As for the latter.
She would be forced to commit a greater betrayal at any moment.
Luca got drowsier as she was lost in thought. The side effects of the medicine were starting to appear, and she just
wanted to fall into a deep sleep.
She would feel better after getting some sleep.
After Luca closed her eyes, she completely lost contact with the outside world and was not even aware that Aunt
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNeile had come in twice to take her temperature.
She fell asleep in a daze and had many dreams.
Not only did she dream of Luke, but she dreamt of the children as well.
She was holding Nyla's hand at one end, whereas Luke was with the three children at the other end. Between them
was a bottomless abyss.
Luke reached out his hand to her, but she did not have the courage to cross it with the child.
In the end, Luke was disappointed in her, and a beautiful woman appeared by his side.
He and the children then left with the woman without giving her any time to yearn...
All she could do was hold Nyla in her arms as she got on her knees and watched him walk farther away. She
shouted silently, "Don't go..."
Nyla, who watched all of this happen in her arms, let out a smile.
She looked down at the child in panic and wondered when the child in her arms had transformed to look like Abel.
He cruelly pointed at Luke's figure as he left and said deceitfully, "Look, that's the man you love the most. He left
you behind and ran away with another woman. Now, he's no longer yours, and the children won't recognize you as
their mother anymore. What are you going to do?"
She let go in panic and shook her head repeatedly. No other words of rebuttal came out of her mouth except for
the words, "No, no, no."
Abel stood up and pulled at her hand. Despite her struggle to escape, he would not let go.
He deluded her, saying, "Your man is gone, and your children are gone. What's the point of staying here? Come on,
jump down with me and stay in the abyss forever. Come. Come.."
"No! I don't want to!" She cried out as she watched Abel transform into a demon and pull her into the great abyss.
Luke stood by the bed. He looked at Luca's red face and frowned.
She was still spitting nonsense and saying no.
What was she resisting?
"Why hasn't her fever gone down?" Luke looked at Johann who was sitting at the side. After Aunt Neile informed
him, he asked Jason to bring Johann over.
Luke did not care whether he was busy with work or not.
Johann sighed as Luke had asked this question three times in the past five minutes. A few other times, he had asked
why Luca was not getting any better.
"Calm down. It hasn't even been ten minutes since the acetaminophen injection. How can the fever come down so
quickly?" Once again, he answered Luke's question.
"It's too slow. She's in pain right now." Luke frowned as he was not satisfied with the speed of the fever reduction.
"The effects of the acetaminophen injection need time to work too. If you want her fever to go down quicker, place
two bags of ice under her armpits. I guarantee that it'll go down in no time." Johann spoke nonsense.
"Are you treating her body as a joke?" Luke looked at him with a warning look.
"How could I dare? I was just giving you a suggestion. This is indeed a physical method of reducing fever," explained
Johann as he was afraid of being shot dead by his deadly gaze.
"Do you want to try?" said Luke. It was in the middle of winter and Luca caught a cold from freezing, yet he still
wanted to stuff ice under her armpits. Was he trying to kill her?
“Okay, okay. I was just trying to liven up the atmosphere after seeing you so anxious. If you really find it too slow, I'll
apply some ethanol on her so that the fever will subside quicker." Johann took out a bottle of ethanol from the box.
He was confident in his medicine, but Luke was not patient enough to wait for the medicine to take effect, so this
was the only way.
Johann walked over to the bedside and lifted Luca's blanket.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What are you doing?" Luke grew even more upset after seeing his gesture.
Although Luca was appropriately dressed, the sight of a man lifting the blanket like that made him mad.
Johann exaggeratedly raised his hands as a sign of surrender and handed him the ethanol. "I just wanted to apply
this for her, but I guess you should do it."
Luke kept his composure as he took the ethanol from him. "Where do I apply it?"
Johann pushed his glasses. "Neck, stomach, underarms, anywhere."
Luke looked at him coldly without moving an inch.
"What are you looking at me for? Aren't you trying to get her fever to go down?" Johann was puzzled by his look
and took a step back as he felt like he was going to be eaten by Luke's gaze.
"How am I supposed to apply it when you're here?" Luke frowned as he was not willing to let other men look at
Luca's body even for a minute unless absolutely necessary.
He was a man too, so he understood just how fine she was.
He was fatally attracted to her every minute and every second of the day.
"Fine, I'll go out." Johann could not help but shake his head as he wondered how Luca could stand him.
If he were a woman, he might go crazy if he was possessed by such a possessive man.
Johann pushed the room door open and walked out.
The three children who stood at the doorway looked at him simultaneously.
After closing the door, Johann bent down slightly and looked at the children. "Are you standing here because your
father punished you?"
"Uncle Park, your words are not funny at all." Lanie frowned coolly and looked at the door behind him as they were
worried after learning that Luca had fallen sick.
However, Aunt Neile did not let them in the bedroom as she said that children would easily be infected because
their bodies were weak.
"Jeez, sorry. It's just that your faces were so serious and a little tragic even..." Johann could not hold in his laughter
as Luca had just gotten a cold. It was just a minor illness.
