EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 151

Suny took a nap straight after yoga and woke up at exactly 6pm, the sky outside was dark and on closer inspection, it was raining again.

In WeChat, Alicia sent her a weight chart, saying that her weight hadn't changed even after a barbecue, and that Joan was simply fussed!

Suny smiled and gave her a reply: next time remember to cut off the time of the screenshot.

How dare she fool others with an old picture?

There were few ingredients inside the fridge, so Suny ordered a seafood fish rice.

When Ivan called, Suny thought the takeaway she had ordered had arrived, but she didn't expect it was a number she had seen several times.

Ivan's call.

Suny pressed answer when it was almost over, "Ivan?"

"Miss Holland, I'm sorry to disturb you, I couldn't reach Mr. Johnson, he still has a fever. I am worried that something has happened to him, so I have to call to ask you, is he at your side?"

Suny frowned, "Wait a moment."

Saying that, Suny took an umbrella and went downstairs. Just as she walked out, she saw the black car outside the parapet.

Austin was still outside her door.

"Ivan."

"Yes, Miss Holland."

"He's here with me."

"Miss Holland, Mr. Johnson is running a high fever, can you take him to the hospital?"

Probably because he felt that his request was a bit rude, Ivan regretted it after he finished, "Sorry for the disturbance, Miss Holland, I'll ask Mr. Brook to go over and pick up Mr. Johnson."

Suny was holding an umbrella, the rainy night was gloomy and unclear, she couldn't see Austin clearly inside the car.

But she really didn't really want to meddle in this, and since Ivan was so sensible, she naturally wouldn't add to her troubles: "Okay."

Hanging up the phone, Suny walked over with her umbrella: "Austin?"

He seemed to be asleep. Suny raised her hand and knocked on the car door, but Austin did not move.

It wasn't raining much, just densely, the roadside was all wet and she stood outside in her furry slippers, so her shoes quickly getting wet from the rain.

The wind was blowing with the rain and it was a bit chilly. She was just going to come out to have a look and had a loose jumper over her body, which couldn't keep out the cold of the night.

Austin did not respond, Suny looked at him again through the windshield, inside the dimly lit driver's seat, Austin was leaning back in the seat with his eyes closed, his face pale, his lips dry, in a very bad state.

She remembered what Ivan had said inside the phone and Suny knocked on the car window once more.

The windows were not fully closed, with a gap of about five centimetres.

"Austin?"

She called out to him while knocking on the car window. Austin inside the car suddenly frowned, and Suny thought he was awake, but his eyes were still closed.

Austin had dreams in which Suny was calling him and he wanted to be by her side, but the distance that looked like a stone's throw away, he couldn't cross it.

Having just opened his eyes, Austin was still staring ahead motionlessly until he heard Suny's voice beside him again and he moved.

Austin inclined his head and saw Suny holding an umbrella outside his car door.

She was wearing a thin jumper on such a cold day.

The night breeze made her fair face red, she was looking at him: "You are awake?"

It wasn't a dream.

Austin raised his hand and pressed his temple, "Why are you here?"

"Ivan called me and said he couldn't find you and he is worried about you."

Suny said and added, "Since you're awake, sit there, Mr. Brook will come over to pick you up later."

The high fever was making Austin very uncomfortable and he had no idea how long he had slept here.

When he heard Suny's words, Austin looked down at his phone and was alerted by Elijah's message on the home page.

He clicked in and took a quick look. Elijah asked him if he needed him to come pick him up, and without saying anything, he assumed he did.

Having just woken up from a nap, Austin had not yet reacted, but with Elijah's message and Suny's words, he soon knew what he should do.

Putting his phone away, he asked in a muffled voice, "My throat doesn’t feel well, can I come in for a drink?"

Suny looked at him for a second before nodding, "Get out of the car."

She finished and took a step back, standing next to him with her umbrella and waiting for him to get out of the car.

"Let me take it."

Austin got out of the car and reached out to take the umbrella from Suny's hand.

The umbrella was not big, with two people below, it looked very cramped and narrow.

The wind with rain at night was cold, but Austin just leaned over and there was a burst of heat.

Suny felt his unusual body temperature and couldn't help but incline her head to look at him, "You have a fever and you still had barbecue?"

"It is a low fever."

He went out with a low fever, but now he was not sure.

Without another word, Suny led him into the villa.

This was the second time Austin entered this villa, and just as he sat down, Suny poured him a cup of hot water, and just as she put the cup down, the doorbell rang.

Suny gave him a look, "I'm going downstairs to get a takeaway."

With that, she stomped out on her flip-flops.

Austin watched her back until she disappeared down the stairs, and then he withdrew his eyes.

He did cough, having sat inside the car for over four hours. Poeple are already prone to dehydration with a fever, and he hadn't taken a sip of water for over four hours.

His body was so weak that his breath was hotter than before, and Austin knew that his body temperature should have risen.

A glass of water could not quench his thirst, so he tilted his head and drank it straight down.

Suny came up with the takeaway and saw him pouring water, his slender fingers over the glass, but for some reason he suddenly let go and the glass fell directly onto the coffee table, spilling warm water all over the table.

"Sorry, I am a bit sluggish."

He looked up at her, his deep eyes motionless.

Suny put the takeaway aside and went into the kitchen to get a rag and came out, "When is Elijah coming to pick you up?"

Austin looked down at the glass, seemingly not hearing it.

Suny frowned and took a thermometer out, "You should go straight to the hospital if it's over thirty-eight degrees."

"Okay."

He responded in a low voice, but without saying anything, he took the thermometer and placed it under his own armpit.

Suny unwrapped the takeaway, the aroma of seafood rice was overflowing. And as she was about to eat it, she found Austin looking at her and the seafood rice.

She asked, "Do you want to order a takeaway too?"

"Yes."

He responded and literally took his phone out, then looked to her, "Which restaurant did you order from?"

"You can't eat seafood fish and rice with a fever."

"It smells good."

Hearing this from him, Suny couldn't help but think of how pitiful Alicia was whenever she went out to dinner with her when she was a on a diet.

Yes, she felt a bit sorry for Austin at this time.

But she was not a sympathetic person: "As you wish."

He could eat if he liked, it was none of her business.

Austin pursed his lips for half a second before speaking, "What can I eat?"

He looked down at her, his deep dark eyes listless, but focused when he looked at her.

"Something light, porridge."

"Okay."

Austin ordered porridge, then sat there quietly drinking his own water.

Suny was eating seafood fish rice, the aroma was very strong, but actually he didn't want to eat and didn't really feel hungry, he just wanted to taste if it was good when he saw her eating it.

When Suny finished her seafood rice, Austin's porridge arrived, only that Elijah, who said he would come to pick him up, hadn't appeared yet.

It'd been over half an hour.

She handed out the porridge she had just brought up to him, "When is Elijah coming over?"
