Bossy CEO and His Cute Wife novel Chapter 43

Bill didn't sleep the whole night. The whole family had to look for food during the day.

If they didn't go out for food, they might losing their lives at any time. This was the price of living in the forest as it was not convenient for traffic. It was almost isolated from the outside.

Before the hunter left house, they had already prepared herbs and food for them.

There were only him and Euralia at home. He had to cook and decoct the medicine himself.

Euralia was still having a high fever. Although she was not conscious, she was still holding Bill's hand firmly. He could only take care of her in person and accompany her all day long.

Ten minutes past noon, it was time to take the medicine. He went out to decoct medicine when she was asleep.

It took Bill a long time to light the fire. His lighter had already fallen into the forest, and they had lit it with carbon flame.

The medicine took more than two hours. But Bill was patient. He ran back to the room to check if Euralia had woken up while filling in the sticks.

As Euralia had a serious fever and couldn't eat anything, she had to take the medicine first. But he forgot that he didn't eat anything the whole day.

It was not until dusk that the hunter came back. Seeing the leftover food, he knew that he didn't eat anything. So he cooked the dinner right away.

"Mr. Bill, your wife's condition is not that serious. You don't have to worry too much," The hunter comforted him.

Bill nodded and looked into the room while eating. He was worried that she would be scared if she couldn't see him when she woke up.

"I really envy that you two love each other so much. There is always a good ending for you." The hunting wife added.

Hearing the word couple, Bill was stunned. But he didn't deny it. Somehow he was happy to hear them call him like that.

While they were having dinner, Euralia made a noise again. Bill immediately put down the bowls and chopsticks and ran to the room to take care of her. Her fever hadn't been brought down for a whole day. He couldn't sleep or eat well.

After the dinner, the hunter saw that Bill was still unwilling to leave her. Her fever had not been brought down yet, and he knew that she must have lacked that kind of herbs.

Today, he went out for hunting and deliberately found the herb that could bring down her fever very quickly, but he didn't find it.

"Mr. Bill, the reason why your wife is still having a fever is that we lost one of the herbs we made for her." The hunter did not want to hide anything from him, so he told him the truth.

"What kind of herb is it?" Asked Bill.

"Rush. But this kind of herb usually grows in the swamp, water or wet environment. As you know, this is a forest. It's difficult to find such a place. "

The hunter shook his head helplessly. He had been looking for it the whole day, but still hadn't found it.

"Rush? What does it look like? " He remembered there were some plants nearby when he went to look for water last night. It was just that he couldn't tell if it was a rush from the hunter's mouth.

The hunter had roughly described the plant's shape. Bill felt that the plant in his description was similar to what he had seen last night. He was thinking about going back to where he had been last night and looking for herbs.

"Please take care of her for me. I know where rush lives." He had made up his mind to go there.

"Mr. Bill, I'll go with you. It's not safe for you to be alone at night. " The hunter said with concern.

"No, you stay at home and take care of her and your family." As soon as he said that, he was heading to the forest they passed by yesterday.

In fact, he wasn't sure if it was just a rush. But seeing that Euralia was very sad, he couldn't calm down at all. If Euralia still couldn't get out of the forest, her illness would get worse.

The hunter could not stop him, so he could only let him go alone, giving him the light and a compass. Just in case he got lost.

Lying on the bed, although in a coma, Euralia seemed to know that Bill had left. After he left, she kept calling his name.

It was late at night, but Bill still didn't come back. The whole family of the hunter was so worried about Bill that they did not fall asleep. They were sitting there, waiting for him to come back.

"Do you think he is lost?" The hunting wife looked outside with uneasiness.

"I believe he won't get lost since he has a compass in his hand. I'm more worried that he might meet some wild beasts. If he does, it will be troublesome. " He knew that there were all kinds of wild animals in the forest. As a hunting, sometimes he had to be cautious.

The clock ticked away. At midnight, Euralia passed out. When she woke up, it was already in the morning, but her fever had not gotten better.

"Oh, you are awake, Mrs. Euralia." The wife of the hunter was there waiting for her. When she woke up, she brought some food to her.

"Where is he?" She looked around worriedly and began to panic as she didn't see Bill.

"He went out to find herbs for you. It's been a whole night and he hasn't come back yet." The hunting wife did not think too much and told her the truth directly.

"He didn't come back all night?" Asked Euralia nervously.

She nodded. They were also worried about him and didn't know what had happened on the way.

"I'm going to find him." She was so agitated that she didn't know what to do if he had met snakes or other aggressive animals the night before?

The hunting wife kept persuading her, but nobody could stop her from behaving willfully. She ignored her fever and walked out of the house powerlessly.

After walking for a few steps, she was panting. In the sun, she felt that her forehead was burning hot. The wife of the huntier held her and kept persuading her to go home and have a rest.

But she was not willing to do that.

"If anything happened to him, I would never forgive myself for the rest of my life." Tears welled up in her eyes. She felt terrible at the thought that her brother risked the forest because of her.

If anything bad happened to him, she would lose the idea of living, how could she care about the high fever at the moment.

Then she moved on, with all her strength.

"Euralia." A familiar figure appeared in the distance and walked towards them with many kinds of plants in his hand.

The reason why Bill did not come back all night was that he did not know what rush looked like. So it took him much time to bring back all the plants growing on the bank of the river.

At the sight of Bill, Euralia was so excited that she ran towards him.

"Come back,"

They seemed to be apart for a long time. Bill gave the herbal medicine in his hand to hunting wife and held Euralia tightly.

"You little fool, you haven't recovered yet. Why did you come out?"

"I was so worried about you. I was afraid that you would never come back." Cried Euralia.

"I won't leave you alone. I'll be with you till the end of my life." After saying that, Bill held her up and walked towards the hunting house.

At the moment he lifted her up, Euralia, who had been stimulated, passed out again due to headache.

There happened to be a rush in the plants brought back by Bill. The hunting wife was going to decoct the medicine. Bill stayed with her closely.

"Euralia, you must be okay."

Looking at her pale face, Bill felt his heart ache.

The herbs would be prepared soon and Bill had to help her take them. She had learned from the hunting house that if nothing unexpected happened, the high fever would be driven away after one hour of taking the medicinal herbs.

It was a torment for him in this hour!

An hour later, Euralia got better but still didn't wake up. Then the fever went away, which relieved everyone.

"Mr. Bill, you can rest assured now. Her fever has been gone." Hunting wife came to comfort him and asked him to have lunch.

Bill did not see that she woke up and had no appetite at all. He hadn't eaten well and slept well for two days. He was getting thinner than before.

The members of the hunting family understood him and didn't persuade him.

Exhausted, Bill finally fell asleep at her bedside.

When she woke up, she felt the warmth of her hands. He was holding her hands tightly.

"Bill!"

She called him in a low voice.

Looking at the gaunt Bill, she had mixed feelings. But she also felt lucky that her brother was safe after taking a risk to find the medicine for her last night.

Luckily, he was back now. Otherwise, she couldn't imagine what she would be like.

It was the first time that she realized Bill was much more important than she thought.

"You wake up." Feeling the movement, Bill woke up.

"Well, brother, you are thinner." Tears welled up in her eyes again. She felt a pang of guilt when she saw her brother's life in danger because of her.

"You look thinner. Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something? " A smile crept up on Bill's face. He was about to get up and bring some food in.

However, he was stopped by Euralia.

"Bill, don't leave Euralia, okay?" All of a sudden, she felt that she couldn't live without him.

"Okay! I swear that if I leave you one day, God will punish me! " Bill swear playfully.

"Don't say that." Said Euralia in a coquettish tone.

He sat by her bed and took her petite body in his arms.

"Euralia, I'm serious. I won't leave you for the rest of my life. Because I want to protect you and make you happy. "

Bill confessed affectionately.

But she didn't think too much about it. After all, he was her dearest relative in her heart.

"I promise that I will never make you unhappy, will be never capricious, and will not sulk with you for no reason from now on. I will listen to you from now on. "

"As long as you can stay with me like now and that's enough,"

He thought to himself, but didn't say anything. Although they had gone through two days difficultly, he thought everything was worth it. At least, she was not as cold as before.

Euralia also hugged him and they hugged each other deeply.

Hunting wife walked in with a tray of dishes. She happened to see them. They thought they were a couple and thought they shouldn't disturb the sweet moment.

So she turned around with the food, but it was seen by Euralia. She pushed Bill away and coughed intentionally.

"It's not the right time." The hunting wife said embarrassedly.

"Don't mention it. Thank you for taking us in these days, or Euralia and I wouldn't know what would happen," He had always been grateful to the owner of this house.

In front of them, Bill was not as cold as he used to be, but kept smiling all the time.
