Chapter 1212


    In the middle of the night, Alvina Miller caught a cold, and she had a fever, which made her entire


    being dizzy. She felt thirsty, so she lifted her nket and decided to go downstairs to drink some


    water.


    Alvina Miller stepped on a pair of slippers, walking down the stairs unsteadily, just that, because she


    was not familiar with this home, the lights in the corridor, and she did not know where the switch


    was, she could only grope around to find it.


    "No way, I''m afraid of the dark!" Alvina Miller touched a few ces, but could not find anything, so


    she was immediately speechless, could it be that she was the one feeling her way downstairs?


    Alvina Miller''s final decision was to reach the other end of the corridor in the dark and seek Joseph


    Grant for help.


    However, just as she took a few steps, the lights in the corridor suddenly lit up, giving her a fright.


    She felt it was strange, and when she raised her head, she saw a man wearing a dark purple robe,


    walking towards her.


    "What are you doing?" Joseph Grant heard her movements and came out. The moment he turned


    on the light, he saw her touching the wall with her hands, and couldn''t help but frown.


    Did this woman have a habit of sleepwalking?


    "I''m looking for the light switch, but I can''t find it!" Alvina Miller said lifelessly.


    "The switch is on the left-hand side of your door. Didn''t I tell you?" Joseph Grant had a strange


    expression.


    Alvina Miller was startled, and muttered: "When did you ever say that?"


    Joseph Grant walked in front of her, saw her cheeks turn different shade of red, and his expression


    changed as he asked her in concern in a low voice, "What happened to you? Why is your face so


    red? "


    "I''m having a fever. Do you have a thermometer? I want to drink water, I feel so bad! " Alvina Miller


    was not a child. With her symptoms, it was obvious that she had a fever. It was definitely because


    she had fallen asleep at the entrance this afternoon.


    Joseph Grant immediately extended his hand over, and ced his palm on her forehead.


    "Be careful next time, don''t sleep outside the door!" Joseph Grant helplessly warned her again.


    "Nope, do you have medicine at home?" Alvina Miller was very obedient when she was sick, and


    did not dare to act rashly again.


    "Come with me and take a look!" Joseph Grant remembered that there should be a reserve of


    medicinal herbs.


    Alvina Miller also didn''t know why the fever was so strong. She felt like she could see the road with


    shadow.


    "Joseph Grant, can you hold my hand? I feel dizzy!" Alvina Miller wanted to ask him to help a little


    so that she wouldn''t roll down like a rock.


    Joseph Grant knew that she must be feeling terrible at the moment, or else her eyes would not be


    so dull like this.


    "Ill carry you down!" Joseph Grant immediately bent over and stood in front of her. Without being


    polite, Alvina directlyid on his broad back, with her two small hands instinctively hugging onto his


    neck tightly, afraid that she would fall down.


    Joseph Grant paused for a moment, he did not dare to easily grab her legs, because she was


    wearing a pajamas, if he did that, it would reveal her slim and fair legs, if he wanted to reach out


    and support her, he was afraid that they would touch a ce that he should not.


    If he did not support her legs, with her current strength, she would not be able to wrap her arms


    around his neck and really fall to the ground. In the end, Joseph Grant could only make a move.


    The warm palm was directly pressed against her slender legs, carrying her on his back as he


    walked down the stairs.


    Alvina Miller was currently so ill that she did not care about this matter at all. However, the more


    clear-headed the man was, the more his palm felt the smooth and silky skin, causing him to be


    absent - minded several times.


    He didn''t think that a woman''s skin would be so tender. It wasn''t as hard and sturdy as a man''s. It


    was so soft that a simple pinch would be able to injure her.


    Joseph Grant carried Alvina Miller down the second floor and directly ced her on the sofa.


    Joseph Grant quickly boiled a pot of hot water and brought a cup to her, then prepared to find a


    medicine. There was no fever medicine, so Joseph Grant looked at the time and saw that it was


    already 3 in the morning, so he called for medicine toe over.


    "Take the water first. I''ll help you cool down after a while!" Joseph Grant took out water and asked


    her to quickly take.


    "Oh!" Alvina Miller obediently swallowed the water, Only then did her body feel a little better.


    "Lie down, I''ll go pour some water for you!


    After Joseph Grant finished speaking in a low voice, he went to get some water and a towel.


    Alvina Miller lied on the sofa and in a moment, Joseph Grant brought a basin of water and a towel


    over and soaked it in warm water. After wringing them dry, he first helped her wipe his palms and


    forehead, and then, he twisted the towel in his hands once more, wanting to help her wipe her chest


    and back. His hands were frozen in air.


    He remembered that he helped his nephew to cool down like this before, but he could do whatever


    he wanted with children. But now, for him to do this for this woman, would she treat him as a traitor?


    "What is it?" Alvina Miller blinked her eyes sleepily, seeing him with the towel in his hand in a daze,


    she asked curiously.


    "Wipe your own chest and back. You have to lower the temperature here!" Joseph Grant said in a


    low voice.


    "Help me out, please!" After Alvina Miller finished speaking, he immediately turned aroundzily,


    and lied on the sofa.


    It was really the young miss'' personality. She was already so sick, and she still wouldn''t do it


    herself.


    Joseph Grant could not help but sigh. Alright, since she asked for it herself, he had no need to care


    about it.


    Joseph Grant immediately wrung out the towel and forcefully pulled at her nightgown to see the skin


    on her back as smooth as jade. He directly wiped it over and over several times, and when he tried


    to touch her forehead again, it had indeed cooled down quite a bit, and was no longer as hot as


    before.


    "Alright, let''s go to the hospital first thing in the morning!" After Joseph Grant was busy for a while,


    he finally managed to lower her temperature.


    Alvina Miller did not say a word, she had fallen asleep


    She must have thought of him as a hypnotist. Just now, when he was rubbing her back to cool her


    down, she had fallen asleep.


    "I really owe you much!" Joseph Grant could not help but self - deprecate, after that, he extended


    his hand and flipped her over, directly lifting her up horizontally, he walked up the stairs.


    Alvina Miller''s sleep quality was already very good,


    Joseph Grant carried her up the stairs and used his legs to kick to open the door. He saw that the


    woman had slept on a bed that looked like a dog''s nest, she actually put all of the pillows on the


    sofa on top of her bed, forming a safe ce for only one person to lie on. Could she have slept in


    this small ce?


    Joseph Grant never thought that she would actually have such a strange habit, could it be because


    shecked a sense of security?


    Joseph Grant put her down softly in her small nest that she had cleaned himself. Instinctively, Alvina


    Miller reached out to hug the pillow by her side. However, she didn''t get the pillow, and instead,


    hugged Joseph Grant, who didn''t have time to pull his hand away.


    Seeing her instinctive actions, Joseph Grant''s handsome face was stunned, following that, his arm


    was hugged tightly by the woman, sticking closely to her soft skin. His entire body shook, and his


    mind went nk for a moment.

    Then he realized that he had taken advantage of this woman in an unconscious state, which was


    not much of a gentleman''s thing.


    As a result, Joseph Grant used a bit of force and pulled his arm away. As if the girl had lost his grip,


    she moved her body a little and grabbed onto something else.


    Seeing her childish movements, Joseph Grant didn''t know whether tough or mock her.


    She didn''t know if this strangeness of hers was a product of nature or the day after tomorrow. Her


    father had left so early, so how could herck of security be rted to her father''s departure?


    No matter what, Joseph Grant felt an inexplicable pain in his heart for her. This kind of feeling was


    extremely strong, and caused his Adam''s apple to uncontrobly roll.


    His grandfather had abandoned even greater benefits to forcefully give his granddaughter to him.


    Perhaps, it was because he knew that shecked a sense of security and wanted him to act as her


    protection umbre.


    "Alvina Miller, I hope you won’t regret meeting me." Joseph Grant used a nket to cover her, and


    after tucking her in, he sighed and left.
