chapter 1364


    Anthony thought of how anxious Charmine might feel. Pursing his lips and after a moment of hesitation,


    he said, ''TH go continue our work once you''re asleep."


    Charmine did not insist. This was already the biggestpromise Anthony could make.


    She nodded and instantly closed her eyes.


    It could have been that she was too tired or due to her fever, but she fell asleep in no time.


    Anthony waited until she fell asleep before leaving for the office, yet he still fretted over her when he


    entered.


    Seeing that it was almost time, he turned to Nial. "Time to change the IV."


    Nial looked at the time.


    The rm would ring only one minuteter! How could Anthony be so precise?


    What a crazy husband!


    Nial instantly ced down the documents and went out for Charmine.


    Anthony, on the other hand, was still worried and contemted for a few seconds before standing up


    eventually and went with Nial.


    When the two of them got to Charmine, they noticed that her cheeks were red like hot buns. The sight


    made them worry.


    Anthony reached out to feel her forehead; it burned so hotly that he became troubled.


    He turned to Nial with his steely gaze. "Why is the fever not gone yet?"


    Nial changed the IV for Charmine and answered, "I don''t know."


    Usually, a fever would have dissipated after one bottle of IV.


    He inspected the IV and found nothing wrong with it.


    Anthony frowned. Distressed at the sight of Charmine in bed, he spoke," Well, find out what


    happened!"


    Nial injected pain-reliever into Charmine and extracted blood samples from her to run some tests...


    Charmine was in bed with a high fever, and Anthony stayed at her bedside, not once leaving her.


    Her entire being felt like a furnace as her head grew foggy.


    Anthony reached out his cold palms to hold onto her small hands, but his hands instantly turned hot as


    well.


    He went to get a bucket of cold water to wet some towels. He took one and squeezed out the excess


    water before cing it on her forehead.


    Feeling a cold sensation on her head, Charmine blearily woke up and spotted Anthony. "Anthony," she


    feebly called out, "what''s happening?" "You’re having a high fever," confessed Anthony. "It''s not going


    away."


    Charmine frowned and remembered Nial getting her intravenous. How did this happen?


    It might have been a bad cold or a virus infection.


    She looked up at Anthony and earnestly pleaded, "Stay away from me.


    Don''t get infected."


    Anthony, however, shrugged off her request as he held her hands tightly. "I hope you''d give it to me,


    then. I want to go through this with my wife." i


    Charmine was speechless.


    What time was it? Why was he fooling around?


    "You better go out," she insisted. The two of them must not stay together.


    Anthony did not budge. He looked at her reddened face; she was suffering.


    How could he leave her when she was in agony?


    Seeing that he did not move, Charmine helplessly argued, "Anthony, do you want me to send you out-


    mmph...!"


    Before she could finish, Anthony leaned in and kissed her lips.


    Charmine''s eyes locked on him in shock.

    She had a fever! How could he kiss her?!


    She brought up her hands to push him away, but she had no energy left. Anthony kissed her


    passionately, and she could not even resist.


    Anthony''srge body leaned on her, forcefully kissing her.


    After a while, he stood up and said, "If you kick me out again, I don’t mind kissing you."


    His voice was low and sounded like a warning-incredibly haughty. 1 Charmine frowned. "Anthony, can


    you be more rational...?"
