Without making much noise, Aunt Neile tiptoed to the bedside and touched Luca's forehead.

It was still hot to the touch.

She looked at Luca's red face and frowned. If her fever still would not go down after 30 minutes, she planned to inform Luke to send her to the hospital.

After Aunt Neile left, Luca slowly opened her eyes.

Someone came in just now. Was it Luke?

Luca turned sideways and looked at the other side of the bed to see that no one was there...

Luke was at the company. How could he be here? She was thinking too much.

Luca rolled over and had her back facing the empty spot beside her as if someone was hugging her from behind and whispering softly to comfort her.

Sick people were usually much weaker than normal.

There was no denying that what Luca needed most right now was Luke's whisper of comfort and attentive care.

She snapped her eyes shut at the thought of that. “Don't think about it.."

Luca constantly hypnotized herself to not fall too hard as she was about to leave anytime.

The thing Luke hated the most was deception and betrayal, and she had already done the former. Although it was painful to do so, there was no turning back after lying to him.

As for the latter.

She would be forced to commit a greater betrayal at any moment.

Luca got drowsier as she was lost in thought. The side effects of the medicine were starting to appear, and she just wanted to fall into a deep sleep.

She would feel better after getting some sleep.
