It wasn’t because she was in a bad mood, but…

Her head felt so heavy, so uncomfortable!

“I… I think I caught a cold…” Emily said weakly as she collapsed back into the quilt and touched her own forehead, indeed finding that it seemed to be burning hot.

Hearing this, Baron Stuart’s expression darkened, and he reached out to feel her cheeks and forehead.

Damn it, why was it so hot?!

“Idiot!” Unable to bear the sight of her listless state, Baron Stuart cursed before getting up from the edge of the bed and was about to rush out of the room.

Emily, of course, knew what this man was going to do and stopped him once again.

“What are you doing!?” Baron Stuart turned to look at her, somewhat angry.

Lifting her heavy eyelids, Emily weakly said, “There are antipyretic and cold medicine in the drawer of the cabinet. I’ll be fine after taking the medicine; you don’t need to call Doctor Gavin.”

She knew that according to this man’s habits, he’d make a big deal out of every small thing and would call Doctor Gavin over, but there was really no need for it.

Hearing her words, Baron Stuart’s expression hesitated for a moment before following her guidance and looking in that direction.

“And then just give me a cup of water,” Emily said while holding her forehead, almost too weak to speak.

The man looked at her with a slightly furrowed brow.

“Are you sure you’ll be fine after taking the medicine?” Everytime, whenever it was about her, his heart could not calm down.

“Mm,” at this moment, she was already too weak to speak.

Her head felt so heavy that she didn’t even want to talk.

Baron Stuart stared at her for a few seconds before eventually getting up and opening the drawer of the cabinet. As she’d said, there were two boxes of Western medicine inside.

When did this woman learn to prepare medicine in advance? Could it be that she could predict when she would catch a cold?

The reason Emily did this was because of his overreactions every time.

Just a minor illness would make him call Doctor Gavin from far away, when there was really no need for it.

Grabbing the medicine, Baron Stuart went downstairs and fetched a cup of warm water.

After taking the medicine, Emily felt sleepy again, not even wanting to eat dinner.

Seeing her utterly exhausted and unwilling to get out of bed, Baron Stuart had no choice but to bring the food upstairs. But by this time, Emily had already fallen into a drowsy sleep.

“Emily?”

Baron Stuart tried to wake her but only heard her murmur drowsily.

When he called again, she lazily mumbled, “I don’t want to eat… So sleepy… Let me sleep for a while…”

Having said that, Emily shifted her position and turned to the side, as if this would make her sleep more comfortably.

Seeing that she seemed truly tired and sleepy, Baron Stuart pursed his thin lips and couldn’t bear to forcefully wake her up.

Glancing at the food beside her, he eventually decided to get up and leave.

.

At 10 PM, Baron Stuart returned to the bedroom after finishing all his work in the study room.

After taking a bath and getting into bed, Emily was still in deep sleep.

He tentatively reached out his slender fingers, touching her cheek, and the burning heat seemed to have subsided somewhat.

Apparently, minor illnesses didn’t necessarily need a doctor to be called; taking medicine would make it better.

———-

The next day.

Waking up early, Emily felt much better after a night’s rest, with her cold gone and her spirits one hundred times improved.

As soon as she went downstairs, the man was already sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.

Seeing her come down, Baron Stuart closed the newspaper and walked over to her.

“Are you feeling better? Is there anywhere else that’s still uncomfortable?”
