Temptation From Her Ex-husband novel Chapter 353

The next second, she felt something bitter spreading i n her mouth.

She wanted to spit it out, but Raymond pressed her lips with his until the pill melted. "Drink some water. It's sweet."

Instantly, Scarlett regained her composure and pushed him away. She took the glass from Raymond.

It was honey water, indeed sweet.

Even so, the bitterness of the cold medicine still filled her mouth.

Scarlett frowned and glanced out the window.

The curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows were halfopen, so she could see that it was already light outside.

The high fever made her very uncomfortable. She was burning, and her throat was hot and sore.

It took Scarlett a few seconds to remember why Raymond was here. She looked at him. "Why are you still here?"

"I fell asleep here last night."

He said calmly, but Scarlett was just sick, not silly. She didn't believe it.

Raymond didn't intend to convince Scarlett. He glanced at the empty glass in her hand. "Want to drink more?"

Hearing this, Scarlett subconsciously grasped the glass. "You can go now."

As if he couldn't understand her words, he said, "You have a fever. I just took your temperature. Thirty-eight point four degrees."

"It has nothing to do with you."

Because her throat was inflamed, Scarlett's usually gentle voice turned hoarse.

Scarlett had just woken up and didn't have the strength to argue with him.

She stopped talking, put on her slippers, and went into the bathroom to wash up.
