Chapter 124 Your Duty

Benjamin had a high fever after being soaked in water for several hours. Overwhelmed by giddiness, he was too listless to think. Staring at Harper, he said, "I don't want to go to the hospital." Harper said, "If you don't go to the hospital but keep having a fever, it might lead to delirium or confusion."

"Why do I have a fever?" he asked.

Guilt left Harper speechless.

Benjamin added, "My fever started because of you, so you should take care of me until my fever subsides. Harper, we are husband and wife, and it's your duty. Do you agree?" Harper sighed silently and couldn't retort.
