Chapter 433 The Completely Worry-Free Caspian, Harry, and Elisa


As Stellan assumed, Alaric had a pretty rough reaction to the meds after his treatment shot this time.

Caspian, Harry, and Elisa didn't have school today, so they were hanging out in the bedroom. Caspian, always the thoughtful one, said, "Dad, if you're feeling bad, just let us know. Don't tough it out alone." Hearing Caspian's words, Alaric felt really touched and smiled, saying, "It's not too bad. It'll pass soon. You three should go do your thing. Harry, weren't you going to help me dig into Tommy's background?" "Harry, you should go. Caspian and I will take care of Dad," Elisa chimed in.

"Okay." Since Alaric said so, Harry quickly agreed. He couldn't do much else, but he could handle this, so he left.

Not long after Harry left, Alaric started feeling worse. His whole body ached like crazy, and he felt super nauseous but couldn't throw up. Then he started to get a fever, feeling dizzy and lightheaded. "Dad." Seeing him in such pain, Elisa felt heartbroken. She immediately lay in his arms and said, "You used to tell me stories when I went to sleep. Now, let me tell you a story, okay?"

"Sure," Alaric responded, then closed his eyes.

Elisa began telling him the story of Cinderella. Alaric wasn't really paying attention to what she was saying, but her voice was a great comfort to him.

Listening to Elisa's voice, Alaric felt his consciousness began to drift. The fever made him feel like he was floating, as if he were dreaming, yet it felt real.

It seemed like he was seeing the nightmare he had last night. Marigold was standing by his bed with a pained and twisted expression. "Alaric, I'm your mother. How could you treat me like this? I really can't rest in peace!" Then Marigold's sobs echoed in his ears, refusing to go away.

"Dad?" Seeing Alaric mumbling in his sleep, Caspian worriedly held his hand and called out to him.

"Dad, can you hear me?" Caspian called out again, but Alaric didn't respond. Caspian was really scared.

"Dad's head is so hot. What should we do?" Elisa touched Alaric's forehead and felt it was burning. She was really frightened.

"Mom said if Dad's fever goes above 100.4°F, he needs to take fever reducers. Let's take his temperature first." Caspian quickly took out a thermometer.

They hurriedly took Alaric's temperature. It was 102.2°F. Caspian quickly said, "Give Dad the pills."
