You Hit My Heart by Kylie Stanford

Chapter 1703: Dependence

Immediately, Luther dialed Jamie's phone number.

Over the phone, he briefly explained the situation to Jamie and provided a detailed description of Alisha's symptoms. He instructed Jamie to bring the necessary intravenous fluids and some basic testing equipment.

After hanging up the phone, he held Alisha in his arms, glaring coldly at Athena.

His voice was icy, as if ready to devour, "I need ice packs, now, immediately.”

Athena bit her lip. Although she was dissatisfied, she didn't dare to go against Luther's wishes. She pushed her wheelchair out of the glass room and all the way to the kitchen. Opening the refrigerator, she took out the ice packs that were usually kept there. Then she pushed her wheelchair back to Luther's side and handed him the ice packs.

Luther couldn't be bothered to look at her. He reached out and took the ice packs, removing the fever-reducing patch from Alisha's forehead and replacing it with the ice packs.

Alisha’'s temperature was dangerously high, and it could easily lead to febrile seizures. Before Jamie arrived, Luther had to help Alisha with physical cooling.

Athena watched from the side as Luther tenderly and meticulously cared for Alisha. She felt jealous in her heart.

Because Alisha was his and Joyce's child, that was why he cared so much.

She had never witnessed such tenderness before. She wished that she were the one who was sick at this moment, and he was the one taking care of her.

Seeing Luther giving all his tenderness to someone unrelated, she even had the impulse to strangle Alisha. But she knew that she couldn't do it now. If Alisha died, she wouldn't be able to control Luther. Luther wouldn't let her off either; they would definitely have a falling out, which was not the outcome she desired. So, for now, she had to endure. Luther applied the ice packs to Alisha, but he felt that the ice was too cold. He gave further instructions to Athena, "Fill a basin with cold water and bring me a towel.”
