Chapter 114 A Fever (2/2)

Kerr pulled Nicole into his lap and cupped her blushing face.

”I won't let you down if you ask for it.”

There was no trace of mischief in Kerr's tone. His warm palm slid from Nicole's cheek to her neck. Kerr slowly leaned in.

rr felt Nicole reaching for him. He knelt in front of her.

”It's okay. I'm here. We're on our way to the hospital.”

Kerr spoke calmly. Nicole desperately held onto his hand like a drowning child clutching a lifeline.

When they finally arrived at the hospital, Kerr picked Nicole up and rushed her to the emergency room. Jared went to wake Harley and told him to go to the emergency room.

”This is the second time today that I'm working in the emergency room. I have great comeback timing.”

Harley teased Kerr while Nicole was being attended.

Kerr ignored him, his eyes fixed on Nicole. Harley shut his mouth.

”Don't worry. It's just a little fever. She was given an antipyretic shot. The fever should subside soon. She will be fine.”

Seeing the look on Kerr's face, Harley could not help shaking his head and walking out of the emergency room.

Kerr stood by Nicole's bedside the entire morning. He had not taken the time to change out of his wet clothes.

He wanted Nicole to see him when she woke up so that she would not be afraid. Only by watching over her would he feel at ease.
