Chapter 173

After Jacob came home, he began to have a fever and experienced shortness of breath.

Seeing him return wet all over, Layla was worried for her son. She didn't know what had happened to him. She thought he was concerned about Winder's life abroad.

"Jacob? Why don't you get up and eat something" Layla turned on the light and saw Jacob lying on the bed. His face flushed.

Why did you say that Winslet cared for me when it was Madeline who did that?" Jacob gritted his teeth, and the veins in his temples throbbed "Tell me why?"
