Chapter 438

They stared at each other for a while, and Silvia eventually said, “Why don’t you find a temporary caregiver?”

Curtis looked sympathetically at the unconscious Neil. Even though he had a high fever, Silvia still refused to stay and care for him. It seemed like he had genuinely upset her this time.

Silvia frowned. “We’ve broken up. I’m just a stranger to him as well.”

“But that’s not how Mr. Remus sees it. He might reject everyone else, but certainly not you! I’m in a hurry, so I’ll leave him in your care!”
