Chapter 69: Wette Has a High Fever
I could tell the people outside the door were very anxious, so I quickly put down my knife and fork. “Lili, I’ve got something urgent. Let’s talk later.” “Ok,” Lila replied, then promptly ended the call.
I rushed to open the door and found her looking worried. “Mr. Yates, Ms. Jennings has a high fever. Please go check on her quickly?”
I was quite surprised. She had just been acting tough, and now she was at her breaking point. She definitely wasn’t in a good state. They were taking her to the hospital; she had fainted. It's not a good sign.
Oliver looked troubled. “Mr. Yates, the hospital is overwhelmed.” I recalled how hot her body was when she’d kissed me and how exhausted she looked. “It’s difficult to get an appointment for something like a fever abroad.”
“Let him take care of it. He’s a doctor. Although he’s a surgeon, he should know something about a simple fever.” He probably knew more than I did. Besides, someone like me, whom Yvette looked down on, wasn’t qualified to take care of someone as prestigious as her.
I spoke cautiously. “It might not be a good idea. It’s just him in a room with Ms. Jennings—a man and a woman alone. She might get angry if she wakes up and finds out.” That was the key point. Mr. Jennings had locked out Mr. Caldwell’s friend after returning to his room. Now, he is the only one next door.
I checked Ms. Jennings’ temperature, and it was so high. She must have been feeling unwell since early. If she wanted Mr. Caldwell’s help, she should have asked when he was still there.
Diyen Içekind looked at me anxiously. “Mr. Yates, I know there might be some misunderstandings between you and Ms. Jennings, but you can’t just ignore her being…”
Tiene fatally got this sick. Could it have been because I made her take a cold bath at Alex’s house the other day?
“Beutes, you care about Ms. Jennings more than anyone. Back then, whenever Ms. Jennings wasn’t feeling well, weren’t you the one who personally took care of her? Even if it was just a little illness, you’d push to find medicine. You were always so concerned and considerate towards her.”
Ülevequenda was both anxious and confused. He stared at me with wide eyes, full of disbelief. Nikittatood his conference. Since I used to be so nervous every time Yvette felt even the slightest hint of discomfort, why was I now so calm, even though she was…
I pressed my lips tightly together, and scenes from this and the past flashed through my mind. Every time Yvette felt unwell, I was always the one who panicked. The woman is a workaholic. Despite having stomach pains or other illnesses, she’d always insisted on pushing through and continuing her work. No one dared to say anything to her, except me. I would urge her to take medicine and make sure she rested.
Icht she would always tell me, “Just take care of yourself. You don’t need to worry about me.” Mattlage meint on, she became impatient. “Owen, don’t you have your own things to do? Everyone gets sick; it’s not like I’m going to…” You overreact to every little problem, and…
…and I did everything just to please her, and Yvette’s responses were vivid in my mind. …around Yvette, hoping she would like me… Crush giving him advice, ‘Oliver, she doesn’t need me. You should find Randall, he’s much more helpful than I am.’
“Do you have paracetamol and take her to the hospital? It doesn’t work. The hospital is sorting; there must be a hospital with an emergency department still open.” Chart, if there’s anything else, you can call.
I have the same fantasies and expectations towards her as I did in my past life, but love had become a habit; I would still take care of… Longer, Mathabat slowly faded. Lately, I know she was in so much pain, even having a high fever and passing out, but I just felt surprised; I didn’t even…
I immediately spotted the handsome man and beautiful woman staring in the living room of the suite, as pale as paper, and her lips… Mindes she barely showed signs of weakness. ĮLestill was standing next to her, In immioon, sal quietly pulled out a phone to snap a photo of the matter.

Putting the phone away, mooling her… Truined suver and was startled. “What happened to you? You have such heavy dark circles under your eyes.” Mmming bad a tears all night. Hook case of hes the whale night.”
Troukha’i hely but shook her head. “You’re working so hard, it makes my work look so sloppy.” Oliver, who was always calm, twitched, and the corners of his mouth trembled. “Mr. Yates, you’re just joking. But it was fortunate that Mr. Caldwell was there last night. He gave Ms. Jennings…”
Hettokowed her fever and now is starting to improve. I was afraid that I might misunderstand. “Mr. Caldwell was just hungry in the middle of the night and went out to find food. That’s when he noticed something was wrong with Ms. Jennings. He was only acting out of a doctor’s compassion.”
I didn’t say anything, but his urgent explanation made it seem like I was the one who was scared of jealousy all the time. Randall also put down his bread and utensils and then walked toward me. His voice was gentle and apologetic.
“Mr. Yates, I’ve been meaning to speak with you privately about what happened last night. I’m sorry; both Lionel and I shouldn’t have spoken like that, especially Lionel. Last night, he distorted the facts and made you seem safer. I apologize to you on his behalf. I’ve already spoken to him, and he won’t call the police to cause you any trouble. I hope you can calm down.”
“As for those slaps, don’t…”
