Chapter 246 - 246: Nurse Lillie Will Be Taking Care Of You Now (Part 2) (1/2)
”Ethan, stop pretending you're asleep.”
”Snore...”
”People don't say the word snore when they're asleep.”
”I'm sleep talking. Zzzz...”
”Get up, you need to drink your medicine.” Lillie rolled her eyes.
”But it's too bitter!” He said, the duvet muffling his voice.
”That's how you know it's a good medicine. Get up now or I'll push you off the bed.”
Ethan grumbled, reluctantly removing himself from his makeshift cocoon. Lillie she saw him covered in a lot of sweat.
”Were you in there for long?” It's morning and it's quite chilly, so he wouldn't be this sweaty even if he cocooned himself in the duvet.
Her hand quickly reach out for his forehead to feel his temperature.
”You're hot.” Her eyebrows knitted together.
”Thank you?”
”Your temperature.” Lillie woke up earlier than him to finish the work Elliot send her. Since she needed to stay home to take care of Ethan, Lillie didn't go to the office today.
His temperature was fine before she went to her study room. ”Why didn't you tell me you were running a fever?”
”I—uh, thought it was hot again today...” He was not lying. Lillie opened the drawer and took out a thermometer.
Ethan stared intently at his wife as she ran her slender fingers to unbutton his shirt halfway to stick the thermometer on his armpit. This was the first time she did this so he's relishing the moment.
”38.7 Celsius. It's not high, good.” She mumbled. ”The medicine you took yesterday is all you need for your fever. Doctor Song said if it's higher than 39 degrees, I'll have to call him to give you another set of medicine.”
Ethan mentally sighed in relief. He had enough bitter medicine, thank you very much.
Lillie gave him a glass of water and a pill.
”It's a pill this time?” Ethan looked at her in puzzlement.
