Chapter 144 - Like a Troubled Little Child (2/2)

”I'm sorry young master, but there is no clinically proven way to cure it---”

”What do you mean?” Sei's aura turned unbelievably dark the moment he heard the doctor's statement. As a result, that made a series of invisible sweat drops fall from Zaki's forehead.

”I mean there's no magic pill to make it go away, but there are ways to ease the pain.” The doctor answered making Sei's dark aura to vanish from existence and he asked again.

”Tell me… right away.” He said and as the doctor explained basic household remedies for a hangover. Sei nodded in understanding and as soon as the call ended, he looked at Zaki and ordered him to get some painkillers to ease his wife's headache.

”Yeah, yeah… I'm going, stop panicking like an old hag, will you?” Zaki said before he finally left. Sei on the other hand, hastily went to the kitchen and took a jug of water.

Thinking about the doctor's advice about keeping her hydrated, Sei quietly poured water into an empty glass cup before he approached the girl on the bed.

He stood there holding the glass of water with both of his hands as he stared at his wife's face. That moment, she was still creasing her brows in pain. And the sight of her in that state just made Sei freeze for a moment as he looked painfully anxious like a troubled little child, as if the only thing that was missing was for his eyes to welled with tears.

Until he finally managed to utter a few words.

”Y-you have to drink water.” He said as he bended his body towards her. However, the girl didn't respond causing him to turn even more vexed. He stretched out his hand and landed his palm gently on her forehead. She was still a bit warm but knowing that her temperature didn't change for the worse made Sei a bit relieved.

The man then knelt beside the bed as he began to speak again in an extremely hesitant way. It was because he didn't want to disturb her rest, but as he thought about the doctor's advice, he could only force himself to touch her shoulder anxiously as ever.

”Davi…” he called her name instinctively and the girl who was feeling awful slowly forced her eyes opened the moment she heard who called her name.

D-did I just heard Sei's voice calling my name? He's calling my name? Ahh… my head is throbbing… was that just my hallucination?
