Married At First Sight Chapter 3944 Chapter 3944

Just like kids dragged along on summer vacations, who'd rather stay in the hotel glued to their phones than venture outside into the sweltering heat, Evan felt trapped by the circumstances he'd put himself in. He wanted to rub his nose, but with both hands full, he couldn't manage it.

The urge to sneeze built up again-and before he could do anything about it, he sneezed loudly.

Abby glanced at him and shook her head. "My dad told you to take off your coat and stand out there, and you actually did it? Like a fool! You're not chasing after a wife you lost or anything-there's no reason to take him so seriously." Luckily, she'd come out quickly. Otherwise, he'd have turned into an ice sculpture.

Evan chuckled weakly, his voice tinged with self-deprecation. "I deserved it. What happened before-that was on me. I hurt you. Uncle and Aunt had every right to be mad. Honestly, I got off easy. They didn't yell at me or anything. Freezing out there for a while was more than fair." He sneezed again, this time more violently. Though Evan was usually in good health, it was clear this time he wasn't getting away unscathed.

Abby glanced at him briefly, but her expression remained neutral.

When they stepped inside, Abby turned to the butler. "Is the ginger soup ready?"
