Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 1012 I Have My Reasons

Fiona noticed the doctor was pretty good at his job, already setting up an IV for Selena, and she let out a sigh of relief.

The doctor said, "Has she been stressed out lately? Make sure she eats on time. She's got a stomach issue and needs proper rest." He gently wiped the sweat off Selena's forehead, his fingers lingering for a moment.

He added, "Her fever should break in about an hour. Have the kitchen whip up something light. She hasn't eaten in two days."

Fiona felt a bit uneasy, thinking he was being too familiar, but after a closer look, she didn't see anything wrong.

She pointed to the hallway camera and said, "Doctor, since it's your first time here, just so you know, we've got cameras running 24/7."

The message was clear: if he tried anything funny while she was downstairs, he wouldn't be leaving Ashbourne Manor tonight.

The doctor smiled, "I won't ruin my friend's reputation."

Fiona found his voice particularly pleasant, gentle, and clear, so she went downstairs.

Usually, Fiona made the soup for Selena, but still feeling uneasy, she had two maids stand guard outside Selena's room. "If he tries anything, just call out, and I'll have the bodyguards come up." Everyone at Ashbourne Manor was loyal to Selena, always thinking things through thoroughly.

The maids nodded and immediately went upstairs.
