After talking about work with Calvin, Winnie could not help but asked.
“Calvin, isn’t Mr. Bennet in the company?”
Hearing that, Calvin took a look at Winnie.
“He is, Wendy is in his office.”
“Oh, then I won't bother him.”
Winnie gave a bitter smile. Her eyes were dim with disappointment.
It turned out that Wendy was there. Wendy came a lot lately. Are they going back together?
Winnie could do nothing about and let Brian do what he wanted.
“Pack up the data, ask the assistant to copy this to me.”
Winnie put her mind on the work again and then gave a document to Calvin.
Calvin stretched out his hand to take it, because he did it early, he touched Winnie's hand.
He was suddenly nervous.
“Winnie, why is your hand so hot?”
Calvin looked up at Winnie and found that her face was as red as the sunset.
“Do you not feel well? Your face is rosy.”
Calvin was worried.
“It is ok, maybe the air conditioning is too cold.”
Winnie was perfunctorily and knew that her fever had started again.
“Calvin, you go to work, I adjust air conditioning.”
“Are you really all right, don't you go to the hospital? The cold germs are really bad and a lot of people
are sick.”
Calvin did not think it was because of the air conditioning, so he was worried.
“I am really ok. Copy this data, I need it now.”
Winnie affirmed again, saying she was okay.
“I go to copy the data first, if you feel uncomfortable, call me, I send you to the hospital.”
Calvin took the data to leave. Winnie quickly turned up the temperature of the air conditioner. She was
hot but cold.
She had endured it after a while and found she was still cold. She took medicine from the bag and
found she forgot to bring antipyretic.
In order not to get fainted in the company, and to cause Brian trouble, Winnie had to leave with her bag
and greeted her secretary before she left.
Calvin came back from copying the date and did not find Winnie. He went to the secretary's office and
asked.
“Where's Winnie?”
“She said she wasn't feeling well and wanted to go home and rest. She told you to call her if you had
any work.”
The secretary relayed Winnie's words.
“Does Mr. Bennet know?
Calvin knew that Winnie must be sick and have a fever.
“I don't know. He has visitor in his office.”
As the secretary's voice fell, Calvin knocked on the door of the president's office.
Get permission and then push the door in.
Without greeting Wendy, and taking a look at her, Calvin went directly to Brian.
“Mr. Bennet, Winnie asked for a sick leave. Do you want to see her?”
“I know, I asked her to rest at home, but she insisted to come to work.”
Brian was not so anxious as Calvin, because they referred to different time.
“Winnie had come and had finished her work, but she did not feel well and left.”
Hearing that, Calvin just knew that original Winnie was back in the morning.
“When did she come? Why didn't you tell me?”
Brian was worried.
“The secretary didn't bother you because you had a visitor in your office. Winnie seems to be in high
fever, you’d better call her.”
Calvin had basically ignored the existence of Wendy. Now he hated Wendy very much. Because of her,
Brian had ignored Winnie.
“When did she go?”
“When I went to copy the document.”
Calvin had a look at the time and found Winnie had left for five minutes.
“You come with me.”
Brian was impatient, ignoring Wendy, took Calvin directly into the president exclusive elevator.
Before the elevator door closed, Wendy heard Calvin's voice telling the secretary.
“Mr. Bennet and I have something urgent to deal with, we need to go out. You receive the visitor in the
office.”
As the voice of Calvin fell, the elevator door closed and it began to descend.
In such a situation, how could Wendy continue to stay, so she could only leave with disappointment.
Out of the elevator, Brian told Calvin to call Winnie, because Winnie would not answer his phone.
After talking with Winnie, Calvin knew that Winnie was in the hospital, so they drove straight to the
hospital.
Winnie got a serious fever that she felt even her bones and eyes were hurting.
She drove to the hospital enduring the pain and went straight to the doctor who she saw yesterday.
When she reached the door of the doctor's office, Brian suddenly took her hand behind her.
“Winwin.”
At that moment, Brian realized that the temperature of Winnie's hands could melt ice quickly.
“You get a fever, why not tell me?”
Brian was not accusing Winnie, but was self-blaming.
“Why, there's no need to tell everyone. I already have an appointment with the doctor. Go in.”
Winnie said feebly. She did not feel surprised because of the appearance of Brian, but felt
uncomfortable.
Brian accompanied Winnie to the doctor's office and the doctor diagnosed Winnie.
Looking at Winnie's rosy face, the doctor touched Winnie's forehead.
“It is hot, this temperature must be at least over 39.5 degrees.”
The doctor measured the temperature by his own experience, and gave orders to the nurse.
“Get the thermometer, and then go and get some medicine for the fever.”
The doctor prepared for two eventualities to make it faster.
“The medicine to take or inject?”
Asked the nurse.
“For intramuscular injection. The lady is not in good health. The fever must be reduced as soon as
possible.”
After the nurse confirmed, she hurried to the injection room to get it prepared.
The doctor asked Winnie to open her mouth and helped her test the temperature.
“39.7 body temperature, it is too high, with this lady's physical quality, if the fever goes on, she will pass
out.”
After hearing the doctor's words, Brian became nervous.
“Doctor, get infusion first. Infusion is faster.”
“This lady came last night with a high fever and received infusion this morning because she still had a
high fever. The interval was too short for the infusion now.”
“First bring down the fever, and get infusion in the evening.”
Hearing what the doctor said, Brian knew that Winnie was so seriously ill, and was in the hospital at
midnight last night.
“Why didn't you tell me when you called this morning?”
Brian asked Winnie softly.
“Even if I told you, you can't replace me, instead, you will worry about me.”
Winnie said indifferently.
“This lady is very tough. If I am right, there is no place in your body that does not hurt. The person is in
the case of high fever, the head will be dizzy and bones will ache, even muscle and waist are aching.
Do you feel your eyes like burning?”
The doctor said so because this patient was tough and he could not see any pain in her face.
“Yes, but it will be ok, I can endure it.”
Winnie answered lightly, and did not want herself look weak.
However, Brian's heart pulled together because of the doctor's words.
Winnie had been ill since last night, but she did not tell him, she must be angry with him, she must be
sick because she spent too much time blowing by the sea.
He was wrong and caused Winnie sick.
At this time, the nurse called Winnie to the injection room. After a fever injection, the doctor did not let
Winnie leave but stay in the ward for observation.
Winnie's fever had not subsided. She was dizzy lying on the bed. Brian sat on one side and watched.
“Are you feeling better now?”
Brian had been around and constantly asked her.
“I am fine, I am just sleepy and want to sleep.”
Winnie was not sleepy but a fever made her dizzy.
“Don't sleep yet. The doctor told you to drink lots of hot water. It will help cool you down.”
Brian said and handed the hot water to Winnie.
“I can’t drink more, my stomach is full.”
Winnie refused, if she kept drinking, she would vomit out.
“Winwin, can you tell me the first time when you get in troubles?”
Brian chatted with Winnie and would ask her to drink more hot water when she digested.
“I didn’t tell you because I don’t want to bother you. I will be ok by myself, besides I have aunt and
Vanessa.”
Winnie meant that Brian was not needed, because seeing him when she was sick would make her
heartache and make her unable to be tough.
“What are you talking about? Are you still angry about what happened yesterday?”
Brian could not help but mentioned what happened yesterday.
“Yesterday it was that I am not tolerant, I thought too much. Never mind, Let the past in the past.”
Winnie did not confirm or deny. Although she said it was in the past, she still felt uncomfortable.
She loved Brian, could endure that Brian did not care about her. But she could not bear Wendy's injury
to her.
From now on she would not forgive Wendy, would not forgive Klara.
“Winwin, don't do that. If we don't open the knot in heart, we will become more and more distant. As for
what happened yesterday, it was that I thought too little and ignored your feelings. I promise you...”
Brian wanted to apologize, but he could not say “sorry”, at the middle if his sentence, he was
interrupted by Winnie.
“It's really all right. I said it is in the past. You don't have to promise me anything, just let it be.”
Winnie did not want to have guarantee from Brian, which she had heard it for many time from him.
Whatever was related to Winnie, Brian would think too little and ignored her feelings.
Since it was excuse, why did she have to listen to it?
“Go back. Don’t put the whole company aside because of me. I'll call Emily or Oscar, they can come
and stay with me. Don't worry about me. I'll sleep it off.”
After giving Brian a reassuring smile, Winnie closed her eyes.
Winnie felt Brian here would cause burden to her heart even if he said nothing. And she didn't want to
talk about the heartache topic any more.
Her heart had been scarred, had been glued. Once the tears flew into her heart, it would melt the glue
and her heart split again.
Winnie’s smile was bitter in Brian’s eyes. He felt that Winnie still cared about what happened yesterday,
and Winnie deliberately alienated him.
