Chapter 169
“Huh?” Valerie was a little confused. She touched her forehead and said, “It’s alright. It’s <b>not </b>hot…“.
L
Sering Matthew’s grim expression, she had to soften her stance. “There’s a medicine box in the TV cab, and there’s an electronic thermometer I bought before”
Matthew took the electronic thermometer and checked her temperature.
Her forehead temperature was 30 C, and <b>her </b><b>hand </b>temperature is
was 40 C.
No wonder she didn’t feel hot when she touched her forehead. Her <b>hand </b>temperature was evi like her head <b>was </b>a bit cold.
Matthew was speechless for a moment. “You have a
lever
was even higher than her forehead’s, maybe making her feel
Valerie couldn’t deny it. No wonder she felt a bit lightheaded. She had probably overexerted herself today. She had sweated on the way from the bar to Asnd Street in the afternoon and caught a bit of a chill on the way back
She felt a bit embarrassed. “Mr. Grant, don’t worry, It’s fine. I’ll just need to rest.
Then she added, “It’s dinner time. Are you hungry? I’ll go cook…..
As the finished <b>speaking</b>, she began to walk toward the kitchen in a daze, steadying herself <b>against </b>the wall after a few steps, as if she might copse at any moment
Matthew stared at her for three seconds, then couldn’t help but step forward, grabbing her wrist firmly. His face was darkened, and he saw through his clenched teeth. Valerie, what do you take ine fort Do you think I would <b>make </b>a person with a high fever cook for me?”C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.
Valerie was startled by
by his cold tone, and when she looked up <b>and </b>saw that he was genuinely angry, she <b>couldn’t </b>help but swallow nervously.
Matthew was initially angry, but seeing her bewildered expression, he couldn’t stay angry. He could only give her an order, “Go lie down in bed.
<b>Valerie </b>couldn’t resist him andplied. But she couldn’t help but ask. Then what about dinner? I was nning to make braised beef with potatoes. I took the beef out this morning. If I don’t cook it tonight, it might go bad…
She was sick<b>, </b>yet she was still thinking about her beef,
Matthew felt his temples throb. “Just leave it to me.
Unable to resist him, Valerie finally quieted down and obediently went back to her room, changed into her pajamas, and washed her face with
warm water.
Since bing pregnant, she seemed to have be more fragile than before. She felt weaker, slept more, and couldn’t concentrate as well. She had been shopping with Katherine just yesterday and hadn’t noticed anything wrong with her. It was a close call today, but fortunately, nothing serious happened. However, the matter with Ashley and Caleb still felt unresolved.
But <b>worrying </b>wouldn’t <b>solve </b>anything. She took a deep breath and put on a
thick.coat
Although Matthew told her to lie in bed, she didn’t feel sleepy after resting for a while, So, she went to the living room to get a ss of water. Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the door, she heard some noise from the kitchen.
Valerie was surprised as she thought. Is it Mr. <b>Grant</b>?
<b>She </b>knew Matthew couldn’t cook <b>at </b>all. When she first moved in, the house was <b>basically </b>fully furnished except for the kitchen.
With a curious heart, Valerie plord to the kitchen door and lifted the curtain halfway.
Sure enough, Matthew was busy in the kitchen. He wore an apron, and the frozen beefy on the cutting board. Matthew held a knife in one <b>hand </b>and his phone in the other, <b>as </b>at contemting low to cut the beef. She didn’t know what he was looking at on <b>his </b><b>ne</b><b>, </b>but after staring at it for <b>a </b>long time, he seemed to make up his mind and decisively chopped down on the cutting board.
With <b>a </b>herce momentum and furrowed brows, he looked <b>as </b>if he wasn’t cutting beef but was rather dismembering a corpse for revenge.
Valerie was ducked.
<b>Was </b>Matthew really going to <b>cook </b>for her!
