Under the Veil I Rule

Chapter 295

Suddenly, Liliana let out a sneeze, rubbing her nose apologetically. "Mr. Zade, can I have my assistant bring me a tissue?"

"Sure, go ahead."

Liliana chuckled and waved over to Nora, who hurried over with a box of tissues in hand.

Nora sneezed a couple of times as she ran, looking a bit pale and unsteady on her feet. Liliana said sheepishly, "I think I might've passed my cold onto her. Once we wrap up this scene, I'm giving her the rest of the day off."

Cedric didn't really care about whether Liliana gave her assistant time off or not. He just smiled nonchalantly as Nora approached.

Up close, it was clear that Nora was sweating and seemed feverish, her voice raspy as she spoke, "Liliana, here's the tissue."

Maybe it was the discomfort, or maybe she was just exhausted, but Nora wobbled a bit and accidentally stepped on a slippery pebble, losing her balance. With a yelp, she stumbled sideways.
