Let's Get Married novel Chapter 230

Lily is awakened by the pain in her throat. There is a chapped pain in her throat, her trachea also hurts. Every breath makes her particularly painful.

The eyelids are opened and the first sight is the familiar ceiling. At first, her eyes are a little blurred; it takes a while before she could gradually see clearly.

By looking down, her body is covered with a comfortable silk quilt. The room’s temperature is not high nor low, which reminds her of what happened before.

The scene of being forced by Rex flashes in front of her eyes, which makes her eyes tearful. Not only because of the discomfort just now, but also because of the man who walks straight to her.

Rex has been staying by the bed. He originally plans to go downstairs to instruct Fanny to make some light soup. Unexpectedly, when he has just left the room, she has wakened up. Once he faces the listless big eyes, the man walks over quickly.

He reaches out and wants to measure the temperature on her forehead. Who would have thought that as soon as he reaches out, she evades with fierce reaction.

The man’s palm stiffs in mid-air. Neither rising nor falling is right, it is very embarrassing.

After a while, Rex places his hand down without any compulsive touch and barely questions her, “Still dizzy? Measure your temperature later.”

With that, he has already taken the digital thermometer from the medicine box and places it at her hand. Lily understands what he means; the pale lip slightly squeezes a little. Without rebellion, she obediently puts it in her ear.

Thirty-seven point two degrees. The fever has lowered a little, almost fine.

He is then relieved and starts to think of other issues.

Rex walks to the bedside and looks at the white medical tape on the back of her hand, still feeling guilty, “Hungry? Where do you want Fanny to serve the meal, upstairs or downstairs?”

“No need.” As soon as she speaks, she is frightened by her hoarse voice. She twists her eyebrows and just wants to cough. However, in the line of her sight, a cup of steaming water is passed over. By glancing at the five bony fingers, Lily realizes that this is from Rex.

Lily’s heart could not help but start to thump. It is not excitement but nervousness, his approaching makes her nervous.

Instead of picking up the glass of water, she lifts the quilt on her body and tries to bypass him. When she has just taken a step, her wrist is grasped. The man’s lowered voice comes to her ears, “Lily, stop messing.”

Messing?

She moves the corner of her lower lip weakly. All right, just think that she is messing around.

“You... let me go.”

She does not turn around nor look back, as if shooting a glance at him will waste her energy. Rex stares at the woman’s black hair for a moment. He hesitates and then speaks as letting go of her hand, “Sorry, I apologize.”

Lily’s body freezes and says nothing.

The man says slowly, “When you said you want to leave, I suddenly lost control of my temper and didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know you have a fever, so…”

“You didn’t know?” Lily snatches him, “If I haven’t had a fever are you going to kill me?”

“Lily!” Her vicious words makes Rex could not help but frowns, “I didn’t mean that.”
