Chapter 373Chapter 373 Thinking of You
She was afraid of putting pressure on Jason’s wound, so she didn’t stay close for too long and quickly
got up, saying, “You better stop talking and rest for a while.”
Jason didn’t object either.
“Alright, I’ll rest for a while.”
Watching him fall asleep, Aletta didn’t leave. She stayed by his side, occasionally reaching out her
hand to touch his forehead and check his temperature.
Before long, as she had expected, Jason’s body temperature had indeed risen quite a bit.
Aletta immediately dampened a towel and continuously wiped and changed it for Jason.
Around noon, Aletta timed it well and had the hotel send up some food.
When the waiter laid the lunch on the table, she woke Jason up and said, “Time to eat, fill your
stomach, and take some paracetamol.”
Jason wasn’t in a deep sleep and woke up as soon as she called him. However, he had little appetite
when it came to eating.
He ate a little casually, took the medicine and went back to sleep.
In the afternoon, he sweated a lot. And his clothes were soaked, clinging tightly to his skin.
However, his body temperature finally dropped.Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookAletta breathed a sigh of relief and went to the bathroom to prepare a basin of hot water to clean
Jason’s body and change his clothes.
Wearing wet clothes would exacerbate the illness and would not be good for his wound…
Just as Aletta started to unbutton his shirt, Jason suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed her wrist.
Aletta was startled, her wrist hurt from being squeezed.
She took a two–second pause before looking at the person lying down and asked, “Awake?”
Jason had already regained consciousness.
He glanced at his open collar and seemed to understand Aletta’s intentions.
However, his words were teasingly laced with a hint, “Taking advantage of me while I’m asleep, huh?”
Aletta’s face instantly turned red, finding it funny. She said, “What advantage, I’m just wiping your
sweat, your clothes are all wet! Don’t slander me!”
She freed her hand from his grip and said, “Since you’re awake, get up and take off your clothes.”
Although she said that, she still took the initiative to support Jason’s arm and helped him up.
Jason didn’t say much either. He got up obediently, his tone lazy as he said, “Help me.”
“Okay.”
Aletta obediently responded and took off his shirt.
In no time, the man’s figure came into view.His solid eight–pack abs were evenly and beautifully distributed on his abdomen. His chest was firm,
with smooth and graceful lines. Displaying strength in every aspect.
Even though she had seen it before, Aletta still felt inexplicably embarrassed.
Subconsciously turning her head away. She wrung the towel and handed it to him, saying, “You can
wipe yourself.”
But Jason didn’t take it, and instead said, “As a patient and your fiancé, can’t I enjoy the care you
provide? Help me!”
Once again, those words.
After saying that, he lazily leaned against the headboard. Showing no intention of doing it himself.
Aletta felt both angry and amused.
This person… really knows how to boss others around!
However, she was worried that if she dragged it on. He would catch a cold, so she had no choice but to
help him wipe.
At first, Jason enjoyed it, but soon he realized that it was pure self- inflicted torture whenever the
delicate touch of a woman’s hand brushed against his skin!
He even felt the heat that had just subsided faintly returning…
Aletta noticed that his body was getting a bit feverish, and she couldn’t help but stare, leaning closer
and asking, “Why did you suddenly get hot again?”
At the same time, her other hand was already resting on Jason’s forehead. Her expression slightly
nervous.Jason let out a heavy breath and said, “Don’t worry, this time it’s purely a personal problem.”
Aletta didn’t understand, “Huh?”
Seeing her completely clueless, Jason helplessly said, “If you were a bit slower in your actions, with my
self–control, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to keep calm.”
Aletta blinked her eyes, looking puzzled at him.
His appearance was somewhat tender and silly.
It made Jason wish he could just drag her over and have some fun.
His gaze gradually became deep and increasingly obvious…
Aletta suddenly realized as she looked at him.
Her ears instantly turned hot, and she immediately said with displeasure, “Can’t you be a well–behaved
patient? What are you thinking about at this time!”
Jason shook his head and sincerely said, “It’s hard when you’re around. Naturally, my thoughts revolve
around you!”
Aletta couldn’t help but laugh and cry.
Sweet words come so easily from his mouth!
However, she didn’t intend to pay attention to it. Her actions quickened, wiping his body clean and
fetching clean clothes to help him put on.
After completing this series of tasks, Jason also calmed down.Aletta poured him a cup of hot water, and he took a sip and asked, “Has Eaton come back?”
“Not yet.”
Aletta replied, estimating the time in her mind. It had been a long time since he left.
Lately, with one thing after another, she couldn’t help but think of the worst. “They won’t be in any
danger, right?”
“They went to chase someone last night, and it’s already afternoon…”
Jason pondered for a second and looked up, saying, “Don’t overthink it. Nothing will happen.”
At this moment, right at the entrance of the abandoned distillery.
A pair of twins who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old stood right in front of the gate,
scanning the surroundings.
Their appearances made them look somewhat youthful.
The girl was wearing a black and white sailor uniform with two ponytails, resembling a middle school
student.
The boy was wearing a white T–shirt and jeans, brimming with youthful energy.
At this moment, the older sister Cora was holding a bag of potato chips, munching loudly. While asking
her younger brother Leah, “Are you sure this is the place? There’s no one here. It looks deserted! Can
we really find that group of stinky rats that Eaton mentioned?”
Leah nodded, his voice tinged with a slightly hoarse tone, showing signs of puberty. He said
confidently, “My tracking can’t be wrong!”Cora increased the speed of eating the potato chips, crunching more vigorously.
She had some doubts, so she instructed her brother, saying, “Go smash open the door.”
Leah nodded and took two steps forward.
But at that moment, the door of the abandoned distillery suddenly opened.
Cora’s eyes lit up, and a hint of excitement appeared in her gaze.
Oh, there really are people!”
At this moment, the devil–masked man and his subordinates were preparing to rush to the airport when
they suddenly noticed two people standing at the entrance. Their steps involuntarily paused.
The devil–masked man narrowed his eyes and immediately became alert.
One of his subordinates coldly asked, “Who are you? Why are you here?”
Cora blinked innocently, her expression appearing innocent and pure. She said, “Sir, we are here to
ask for directions. My brother and I got lost!”
Upon hearing this, the devil–masked man furrowed his brow.
Years of living on the edge had made him instinctively feel that something was off.
He coldly said to the person beside him, “Take care of it, don’t waste time.”
The subordinate nodded and reached for the waist of his pants. Gripping the handle of his gun,
preparing to shoot these two. people on the spot!
