Lady Boss, Please Spoil Your Husband!
/ Lady Boss, Please Spoil Your Husband! Chapter 32
"Ethan . . . "
Abruptly stopping from his tracks, Ethan couldn't believe what he just heard .
Did she . . . did she just called his name?
"Ethan . . . " There is it again!
Turning around, he saw Lillie, with tears streaming down her emerald green eyes .
Ethan felt something squeezed his heart as he saw Lillie's rare, tender expression .
He watched as how Lillie would stared at him with glistening eyes, staring directly into his soul .
"Don't leave me . . . " She softly cried .
'Squeezzeee'
His heart . . . it hurt so much . It feels like there's a hand grabbing it harshly and squeezing it from its place .
He really didn't want to leave her . He just wanted to call someone to call the doctor .
"I won't leave, I just need to call for—"
"No! Please, Ethan, don't leave me . . . " Her tears welled up furiously and dampened the bed sheets .
Ethan was like a headless chicken as he frantically came to her side, untying her binds and hugged her .
This was the first time he tried to comfort anyone, not even his little sister when she cried when the game 'Nightingale' was sold out .
He had personally contacted Lillie's company back then just to have them develop one more game, no matter the price .
Ethan caressed her soft and fragrant hair, whispering sweet nothing into her ears .
"Shh . . . don't worry, I'm not leaving . " Ethan's positive that Lillie could hear how fast his heart beats because her head is literally on his chest .
Lillie finally stopped crying, thought she is still sniffing . She seemed to have finally calmed down .
Ethan stealthily moved his head down to see if she fell asleep .
Oh . . . her eyes are wide open .
"Your heart is beating like crazy . " Her voice indicates that she is already quite sober .
Ethan felt his ears turn red from shyness . He coughed and said, "I got tired from tying you . "
Wow, great excuse Ethan .
Her eyes were still hazy but her conscious is slowly turning back . "Why did you tied me?"
"You went crazy . " He bluntly said .
" . . . oh . "
After a few moments of silence, Ethan felt heavier . Finally, Lillie fell asleep .
He gently placed her on the bed and covered her body with the quilt . Her fever has miraculously cooled down even without medication .
Don't underestimate the power of natural cure for cold, body heat . [1]
Ethan found a servant roaming around the halls and called her . He asked her to call for a doctor .
The doctor came and checked on Lillie's pulse before giving her some medicine .
"Her body is quite sensitive to the cold . I'm guessing you've been soaked by cold water for about an hour . " The doctor explained, scolding Lillie for being careless .
Lillie nodded, she didn't know how long she'd been soaked in cold water . She must've been really tired and immediately fell asleep at the bathtub .
"She's not allowed to eat any cold food . Don't allow her to work or stress herself, she need a lot of rest . " The doctor no longer mentioned that she's been over fatigue and have not slept properly .
The doctor told everything Ethan needs to know about Lillie's cold and gave him the medicine Lillie needed, assuming that he is her husband .
"You should listen to your husband, Madam . I'll leave everything in his care . " Lillie didn't correct him and let it slide .
"Thank you for coming, Doc . " Ethan bowed in gratitude .
Haruka also thanked the doctor for coming and saw him off .
Lillie was left alone with Ethan, whom had a very serious expression . Feeling uncomfortable by his gaze, Lillie shifted and lie down, covering her head .
"You've been careless . " Soft footsteps came near her bed . Lillie felt her body moved as the bed sank when Ethan sat .
"Two more days left before we go back home . Spend those days to recuperate . " Lillie was silent .
Sighing, Ethan caressed her head before leaving her alone to rest .
Hearing the door closed, Lillie moved the quilt off her eyes and stare at the place where Ethan's figure disappeared, with longing gaze .
