Chapter 392


    Chapter 392 Since Weston insisted that he was fine, Ste didn‘t bother about him any further.


    In any case, when he was rting to her about Compassvale University, he didn‘t seem very affected by


    the fever. His logic remained impable, and his expressions clear and concise.


    If it weren‘t for the things he‘d done to her in the past, Ste would‘ve no doubt worshipped him.


    A man like Weston was born to be of an extraordinary existence.


    She had no idea why the heavens would bless someone so unfairly, granting him everything good.


    Looks, abilities, intellect, family background, and unwavering self–control––these attributes gave him the


    de–facto right to do whatever he liked with women.

    She never regretted meeting someone as outstanding as Weston during her schooling years, but even if


    she could turn back time, she would never choose to step into that marriage. The hurt that she


    experienced from it was too unforgettable. Losing something that she once had was infinitely more


    painful than never having something before.


    Since Weston insisted that he was fine, Ste decided not to push it and focused on the movie.


    They were halfway through the movie, but Weston continued holding her in his arms.


    He was holding her from behind, and Ste only realized something was wrong when the movie ended,


    and the credits began rolling.


    “Weston?” She called out.


    Turning around, she saw that Weston had somehow fallen asleep.


    He rested her chin on her shoulders, and she could feel his weight. She reached out and nudged him


    slightly. “Weston, wake up.” He ignored her and kept his eyes closed. His body, however, had be


    noticeably warmer. Ste‘s brows furrowed, and her instincts told her something was wrong. She yelled


    out loud, “Joan!”


    Joan was about to retire for the night when she heard Ste yelling for her. She quickly got changed and


    ran over. “Ms. Steele, what‘s the matter?”


    “Do you have the family doctor‘s number? Weston‘s fever seems to be getting worse.”


    Joan said anxiously, “I‘ll find it right away!”


    Joan was already worried about Weston‘s condition, to begin with, and she brought a cold towel to Ste


    after calling the family doctor. “I‘ve called the doctor, and he said he‘ll be here soon. Don‘t worry.”


    Ste nodded and couldn‘t help but grumble, “I already told him to let the doctor take a look at him, but


    he kept insisting that he was fine.” Joan said helplessly, “Perhaps Mr. Ford wanted you to show more


    concern to him.” Ste paused for a moment without saying a word. She held Weston up and sat him on


    the couch in the hall as they waited for the doctor to arrive.


    The doctor was there in no time and measured Weston‘s temperature. After a quick check, he said, “It‘s


    probably a bad bout of cold. Don‘t be too worried. He‘ll be fine once his temperature gradually goes


    down.” Joan heaved a sigh of relief. Ste was about to stand up when Weston suddenly opened his


    eyes and grabbed her hand.“ Where are you going?” Ste said, “I‘m heading to the washroom.”


    He pursed his lips and let go of her hand reluctantly.


    The doctor put a needle into Weston‘s arm connected to an intravenous drip. While Ste was in the


    toilet, Weston kept his gaze in that direction.


    The previous few times that the doctor came, it was for Ste. Yet this time, it was Weston‘s turn to fall


    sick.


    The doctor could sense a change in the air between them, but out of his professionalism, he kept his


    inquisitive looks to himself and focused on prescribing Weston some medicine.


    The moment Ste left, he could sense the air around Weston turning cold. When Ste returned,


    Weston‘s hard gaze immediately softened and became more tender. Ste sat by Weston‘s side as he


    asked her, “Were you frightened just now?” “What?” Ste didn‘t understand his question. “I agreed to


    watch the movie with you.“
