Comparing her hand to his, she was ice-cold. On the other hand, Vera was also surprised to find his palm to be very hot.

It was not the usual heat; it was like fire.

Looking at the sweat on Quill's forehead, Vera was even more certain he was having a fever. Her heart ached when she thought of how peculiar he behaved downstairs.

"Why didn't you tell me you're unwell earlier? Are you a fool? We would have been back much sooner if you said something."

Vera said with remorse as she pulled Quill along.

Originally, Quill wanted to leave to get some cold air, but to his dismay, Vera discovered it and wanted to drag him to rest as she thought he was sick.

He was somewhat helpless, but he didn't know how to explain it to her. He could only laugh bitterly.

"I'm a man; I can handle it myself. Didn't you say you're tired? Go and take a shower first. I'll go down to see if there's any medicine. Okay?"

Hearing this, Vera stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him.

Two seconds later, she shook her head and said, "No, you go back to the room first. I'll go down and help you look!"

Their room was within reach. Vera quickly pulled him to the door and then asked Quill for the hotel key card.

"Go in, quickly. Go rest. I'll go down and ask around."

Quill was speechless.

This silly girl.

"Hurry up!"

Under Vera's urging, Quill could only swipe the card and go in. Vera pushed him inside, but she stood outside the door. "Wait for me in the room. Drink some water first. I'll go down and see if there's any medicine. Don't sneak out; wait for me to come back!"

After that, she left, not caring if Quill agreed with her or not.
