Blinking pitifully, Alicia mumbled, "Hubby, my throat hurts. Ahem..." Her lips hurt too!

Almost at the same time, Frederick's emotions subsided and he touched her forehead. "Are you burning up again? I'll get you some honey water!"

Getting up, he went to take some pills before making honey water.

Looking at him hustling around, Alicia's heart warmed up. He had actually cared about her, although it may be 'lesser' than she desired!

She did not know if she went soft because of the sickness, but she no longer felt angry at all!

Frederick fed her the medicine before taking her temperature, his arms around her. "That's more like it! Your fever is better now. Get some more sleep and get well quickly!"

He preferred her to be full of vigor and not sickly.

"Okay!"

Nodding, she blinked and took his arm. "Hubby, you won't leave me, right? What would I do if I missed dinner because of sleep and there's nothing to eat?"

Frederick saw that she was even acting coquettishly at the moment. He was mesmerized by her and spoke with the softest voice, "I won't go anywhere today! I'll just stay by you. Sleep all you want, I won't let you go hungry!"

She blinked her eyes again and for no reason, she felt really weary. She closed her eyes with a beautiful smile on her face.

Sitting by the bed, Frederick was full of satisfaction.

Turning on his phone, Frederick saw a huge number of missed calls and his eyebrows knitted together. "What's Danica's problem? Why did she have to call me so many times over a gathering?" After looking through his phone, he eventually set it aside.

He was not a man to be fussing over such matters in romance; he was tired of inconsiderate women who pestered him. He especially disliked this behavior when he had explained that he had work and was busy!

He was afraid that she would cling to him and complicate things. This would affect his relationship with Alicia.
