Joshua was right.
Ethan was indeed sick.He had been running a temperature for the whole night.He was bedridden, almost losing his life.
Kelvin was peeling an apple next to the bed like a maiden.His mouth didn't stop running.
"Mr.Miller, look at you.What's all this for? You've been following Mrs.Miller around for half a year in disguise.In the end, you couldn't even hold her hand once."
Brent glared at him.
"Can't you stop talking for a moment? Do you think Mr.Miller asked for that?"
Brent then handed a glass of warm water to Ethan.
"Mr.Miller, have some water.You'll get better."
Ethan, whose face was pale and lips were chapped, appeared haggard.
After drinking water, he rested against the headboard.He kneaded his forehead, trying to fight through the dizziness.
The first thing he mentioned was about Olivia.
"How's Liv doing?"
"Joshua is as meticulous as a lady is.Leave it to him.He knows Mrs.Miller's favorite foods like the back of his hand.He wont send the wrong thing.It's just that ..."
Ethan gazed at the hesitant Kelvin.
"Spill it."
"She keeps asking about you, and he had no choice but to be honest with her."
"What did she say?"
"She wants to pay you a visit, but Joshua turned her down."
Disappointment settled in Ethan's eyes.
"I see."
"You should focus on your recovery, Mr.Miller.You've been in bad shape since losing Mrs.Miller.Your immunity isn't that strong.Had it been the previous you, you wouldn't have run such a serious fever after only staying in the cold water for a night."
Brent added, "There's a discrepancy with Kelvin's logic, but he has a point.You're not as healthy as you were in the past.Not to mention that burning the midnight oil has become a routine for you.
"Mr.Miller, if you don't take care of yourself, how are you going to protect Mrs.Miller in the future? You haven't even found out who wants her dead either."
Ethan was aware that the two of them were right.
