Joshua was right.
Ethan was indeed sick.He had been running a temperature for the whole night.He was bedridden, almost losing his life.
Kelvin was peeling an apple next to the bed like a maiden.His mouth didn't stop running.
"Mr.Miller, look at you.What's all this for? You've been following Mrs.Miller around for half a year in disguise.In the end, you couldn't even hold her hand once."
Brent glared at him.
"Can't you stop talking for a moment? Do you think Mr.Miller asked for that?"
Brent then handed a glass of warm water to Ethan.
"Mr.Miller, have swater.You'll get better."
Ethan, whose face was pale and lips were chapped, appeared haggard.
After drinking water, he rested against the headboard.He kneaded his forehead, trying to fight through the dizziness.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe first thing he mentioned was about Olivia.
"How's Liv doing?"
"Joshua is as meticulous as a lady is.Leave it to him.He knows Mrs.Miller's favorite foods like the back of his hand.He wont send the wrong thing.It's just that ..."
Ethan gazed at the hesitant Kelvin.
"Spill it."
"She keeps asking about you, and he had no choice but to be honest with her."
"What did she say?"
"She wants to pay you a visit, but Joshua turned her down."
Disappointment settled in Ethan's eyes.
"I see."
"You should focus on your recovery, Mr.Miller.You've been in bad shape since losing Mrs.Miller.Your immunity isn't that strong.Had it been the previous you, you wouldn't have run such a serious fever after only staying in the cold water for a night."
Brent added, "There's a discrepancy with Kelvin's logic, but he has a point.You're not as healthy as you were in the past.Not to mention that burning the midnight oil has beca routine for you.
"Mr.Miller, if you don't take care of yourself, how are you going to protect Mrs.Miller in the future? You haven't even found out who wants her dead either."
Ethan was aware that the two of them were right.
Had it been the previous Ethan, all he needed to do to recover from a cold or fever was drink warm water.
It wouldn't have been as serious as it was right now.
"Where's the oatmeal?"
"I've asked Joshua to bring it over.Right, you gotta eat more to recover sooner."
Ethan hummed in response.
Seeing how cooperative Ethan was, Kelvin carried over a bunch of stuff from the other room.
"Mr.Miller, I chose these presents specially for you."
Ethan, who was having oatmeal, didn't raise his gaze.
"What are they?"
"Good stuff.Come, look.I bet you've never seen them before."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOnly then did Ethan look at Kelvin, wondering what was there in the world that he hadn't seen before.
Kelvin rummaged through the box for a while before taking out something made of rubber.
It was indeed Ethan's first tseeing this item.
"That's ..."
Kelvin introduced it enthusiastically, "This is specially for managing men’s sexual frustration.It's the best for self- pleasure."
The glint in Ethan's eyes turned cold.
"Get out of here with that thing.Don't makerepeat myself."
Brent scolded him too, "Get out!"
"So they left to buy this kind of stuff," thought the livid Ethan.
Kelvin's voice could be heard from afar.
"Don't driveout! If you don't like that, you can customize a life-size doll.You can even make its voice as realistic as it could be.Just give them stime—"
Ethan threw the bowl at the door, spilling the oatmeal on the floor.
Brent hurriedly explained, "He's just that kind of guy.He has good intentions.Don't be mad, Mr.Miller."
Ethan said coldly, "Are women simply a tool for pleasure to you guys? Can they be replaced by anything? I love her simply because it's her.It's meaningless to make love with someone you don't love."
