Best Revenge: Being My Ex-Boyfriend’s Aunt novel Chapter 76

Catherine insisted on walking back to Wesley’s villa to supervise the renovation progress.

She stayed on-site the entire day. Wesley dropped by i n the afternoon to hand out gifts as a token of appreciation for the staff's effort.

She was overwhelmed by the thick envelope placed in her hands. "President Lyons, this gift is probably more than I deserve.”

"It’s simply a small token of appreciation.” He studied her face briefly. "You look unwell. Are you ill?"

"Probably just a common cold."

"Take the day off and get some rest. I believe the renovation will progress on schedule. I'm not a mean boss.” His voice was soft and gentle.

She nodded. An outsider was more thoughtful than Shaun who lived together with her.

Shaun had not enquired how she was feeling at all.

He probably hated her to the core now, so why would h e be bothered? 1

A woman could not possibly live happily with an inconsiderate man, right?

"Thanks, President Lyons.”

She nodded again and began to take her leave.

She had only taken a couple of steps before she felt dizzy in the head. Fortunately, Wesley reacted quickly and stepped forward to catch her from falling.

The heat transmitted from her skin surprised him." You're running a high fever. Let me send you to the hospital." 1

"It’s fine..."

"Young lady, stop trying to be tough. You’re working for me now and I’ll need to take responsibility if anything bad happens," he replied as he carried her into the car.

Failing to fight the weakness that spread across her body, Catherine drifted into unconsciousness not long after entering the car.

She vaguely felt someone holding her close during the journey.

Something sharp seemed to be poking her arm. It also felt like somebody was feeding her water.
