Chapter 40 Why Didn’t She Answer?

Mrs. Baker looked at Elena’s appearance and was a little dispirited. She went forward and asked,

“Madam, are you really alright? It seems that your complexion is not too good.”

“Is there?” Elena did have a headache. Maybe it was because she caught a cool breeze when she was

sitting downstairs.

Mrs. Baker a little worried and went forward to put her hand on Elena’s forehead. Only then did she

realize that Elena’s forehead was very hot. “Madam, you have a fever.”

Elena had not been sick for a few years and had not felt this kind of feeling for a long time. Elena

touched her forehead and it was indeed a little hot. Only then did she know that she was sick.

“It’s alright. I will be fine after I sleep.”

It was not easy for her to enter the company. She absolutely could not let Ryan lose face.

Elena came to her bedroom. After taking a shower, she fell asleep on the bed.

Mrs. Baker brewed some ginger soup and brought it into Elena’s room. She saw that Elena was

already sleeping on the bed.

Mrs. Baker once again raised her hand to touch Elena’s forehead. It was still very hot. Mrs. Baker took

the towel that she had just washed and put it on Elena’s forehead.

“Madam, you must take good care of your body. If Young Master comes back and sees you like this, he

will probably feel heartache.”

After that, Mrs. Baker used the physical cooling method and began to repeatedly wipe Elena’s body.

After Mrs. Baker finished, she went downstairs and did not expect that the phone in the living room

would be ringing. After Mrs. Baker picked up the phone, Ryan’s worried voice came from the other side

of the phone.

“Mrs. Baker, why didn’t Elena answer when I called her?”

“Young Master, you can’t blame Madam. Madam has a fever. She went to the Monor family’s company

to work today and worked overtime until now. Moreover, she was locked in the company and caught

cold wind. She is now lying on the bed and resting.”

Mrs. Baker said as she looked at the room upstairs. She did not know if Elena was still feeling

uncomfortable at this moment.

After Ryan heard it, he became even more worried, “How could she have a fever? And without my

permission, how could she go to work?”

“Last night, Master and Madam invited Madam to the old residence for dinner. I think it was at that time

they brought up this matter. This morning, they let Eldest Young Master take her to work.”

Mrs. Baker’s tone was somewhat hesitant as she spoke.

“Did something happen?” Hearing Mrs. Baker’s voice, Ryan felt that something was not right.

“I feel that Madam might have been bullied in the company for this to happen. Furthermore, Madam is

stubborn and will not say anything if she is wronged.”

In the end, Mrs. Baker still voiced out her concerns. Those people from the Monor family were not easy

to deal with, so it was inevitable that they would bully Elena.

It was not only the Madam, but also Second Young Master. When Second Young Master was in the

company, there would be people who did not take him seriously. Naturally, it was also because Roman.

“Help me take good care of her during this period of time.” Ryan did not directly answer Mrs. Baker’s

question and hung up the phone.

Mrs. Baker put down the phone in her hand and shook her head helplessly. “I really don’t know what

you are doing. You don’t even know how to take good care of your own wife.”

She washed the towel in her hand and went upstairs to help Elena. After that, Elena slowly opened her

eyes and was unable to move as if she was pressed against the bed by a ghost.

“Water …” Elena’s voice became hoarse.

After Mrs. Baker heard it, she immediately held the ginger soup in her hands and helped Elena up,

“Madam, you are currently having a high fever. I have made a bowl of ginger soup for you. You should

drink it first to warm your stomach and drive away the cold.”

Elena was already in a daze from the fever and could not hear what this woman was saying. She just

drank the ginger soup with Mrs. Baker’s hand and laid on the bed unconscious.

The next day, it was late in the morning when Elena slowly opened her eyes. It was already 10 in the

morning and Elena let out a scream, “It is already so late!”

Elena hurriedly changed her cloths and went downstairs and saw Mrs. Baker busy tidying up the room.

Seeing Elena, Mrs. Baker could not help but be puzzled, “Madam, why are you up?”

Elena asked in a fluster. “Mrs. Baker, did I not tell you to wake me up early last night?”

“You had a high fever last night and it was not suitable for you to walk around. You should take a good

rest. Don’t go to work today.”

Why did this woman work so hard? It was the same as Ryan’s personality.

“You can’t say that. Since I have already gone to work in the company, I have to be serious. I am late

now and I haven’t applied for leave. I will probably be punished by the leader.”

Elsa was Roman’s subordinate. Roman must have told her that she must not let any evidence fall on

her.

Mrs. Baker saw Elena putting her life on the line and could not help but worry, “Madam, this is really not

good for your health. You are still having a fever. What if you catch a cold in the company?”

Elena poured herself a cup of water on the coffee table and directly drank it.

“I am as strong as a cow now and there is no problem at all. You do not need to worry. I will go to the

company first. I will come back later to tell you about this matter.”

There was not enough time so Elena wanted to rush to the company as soon as possible.

“Madam, you haven’t had breakfast yet. This will easily cause hypoglycemia.” Mrs. Baker shouted but

just as her voice faded, that woman had already run away.
