Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 836

Colton was lying on the bed, watching Evelyn enter the bathroom with furrowed brows. He didn't quite understand what the hell she was doing. Why isn't she coming to me right now if she gave me the drug?

As the drug's effect on him became increasingly apparent, he could not think clearly. When he reached into his pocket to retrieve his phone, he discovered it had gone.

He was not the type to idly wait, so he pushed himself to his feet, braced himself against the bed with his arms, and slowly stood up. Despite his best efforts, his body would go limp when he left the bed, causing him to stumble backward.

"Damn it!" he cursed in a low voice. The drug's effects hit him in waves, beginning in his lower abdomen and spreading outward to all limbs.

While he was aware that his entire body was burning, he could not use his full strength without experiencing a complete collapse of his muscles. Soon, Colton's body was drenched in sweat after repeated attempts to get out of bed, but he still couldn't move.

Afterward, Evelyn came out of the bathroom with a towel, and as soon as she came out, she saw him lying on the bed with his eyes closed. She walked barefoot because the wooden floor wasn't too cold to step on.

She cautiously walked to the bed and whispered, "Collie, let me wipe your sweat away for you."

Following that, she gazed intently at him, but he said nothing as he slouched on the bed. Then, she pursed her lips, covered his face with a towel, and meticulously scrubbed off his sweat.

After she wiped his face, she slowly worked her way down his neck and chest with the towel. Swallowing softly, she wiped slowly with the towel. This towel was not considered too soft, and its rough hairs grazed the skin, making him tremble.

Colton, whose eyes were originally closed, suddenly opened them. Evelyn was taken aback and quickly restrained her expression, then said to him, "Collie, you're awake. I'll wipe your body, and you should feel better soon."

Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed her arm. Moreover, his strength was so great that she felt her wrist was about to be crushed.

"Get out," he stared at her and spoke coldly.
