Chapter 2448

The central heating in the house was cranked up high, leaving Sophia feeling parched. She grabbed a glass and headed downstairs to the kitchen for some water.

Upon reaching the kitchen, Mrs. Simmons, the housekeeper, was busy prepping for the next morning's breakfast. Seeing Sophia, she asked with concern, "Miss, have you been keeping well lately? The weather's been all over the place, temperatures fluctuating wildly. And with your delicate constitution, you must take extra care of yourself."

Sophia felt a warmth in her heart at Mrs. Simmons' words, her thoughts drifting to Jason, who had seemed to cough earlier.

Feeling a softness inside, Sophia asked, "Mrs. Simmons, do we have any honey and lemon? I was thinking..."

"Oh, yes!" Mrs. Simmons beamed, "Given your frequent colds and sore throats, your father made sure we're always stocked with honey and lemon for making soothing teas."

Sophia replied, "Could you make some tea then, please?"

"Are you feeling under the weather?" Mrs. Simmons inquired, surprised.

"No, it's not for me!" Sophia frowned slightly, "It's Jason - he's caught a cold. Could you prepare some tea for him?"

"Of course, I'll get right on it," Mrs. Simmons immediately said.

“Thanks. He's been coughing a bit, so just see what you can do," Sophia instructed.
