Valeria was stunned, then she moved aside to move out of Benedict's sight. She explained softly, "Miss Shell woke up this morning. She has had some soup and her condition is stable now." Kimberly was still a little pale, but he could see that she was in a much better state of mind compared to the previous night when she had a high fever.

Benedict's pale thin lips curved upwards but his lips looked dry, "I'm glad to hear that."

"Please have some water," Valeria said.

He did not move, but just stared at Kimberly.

Kimberly was also looking at him. She just wanted to see if he was fine, but his burning gaze made her feel very embarrassed. At this moment, Valeria held a glass of water in front of him but he didn't take it. Instead, he just kept staring at Kimberly.

Feeling awkward, Kimberly coughed and then got out of bed.

She walked to Valeria who handed the glass to her with a smile. Kimberly looked at her and happened to meet Valeria's gaze. Valeria gave her a friendly gaze and said, "I'm going out to buy something. I'll be right back."

After saying that, she left in her high heels, walking in long strides.

A hint of a smile flashed in Benedict's eyes. Valeria did know what he wanted. "Have some water," Kimberly handed the glass to him.

Benedict said nothing, nor did he take the cup. He just quietly gazed at her.

"Emn, aren't you thirsty?" Kimberly paused and felt a little overwhelmed.

"I don't have the energy," Benedict replied in a flat voice.

After listening to his words, Kimberly didn't understand what he meant at first, but then she realized Benedict was asking her to feed him.

Kimberly blushed. Under Benedict's gaze, she was so embarrassed that she nervously put the cup on the table.
