She put down her tools and hurried over to him, her eyes shining with genuine concern. She bent over him, her expression grave as she reached out to assess his condition. Theodore felt her fingers brush against his forehead, and a shiver ran down his spine.
Her scent was intoxicating, and he found himself entranced by her every movement. For the first time, he understood the depth of her kindness and compassion, and a deep sense of contentment settled over him.
It was at that moment that he realized he would stop at nothing to keep her by his side, to cherish and protect her for all eternity. Ariana heaved a sigh of relief after feeling Theodore’s forehead and confirming his fever had subsided.
She then frowned when she noticed he was in his thin pajamas and said firmly, “Wait for me.”
With that, she hurried into the cloakroom to retrieve a coat for Theodore to wear.
She helped him put it on while muttering, “It wasn’t easy bringing down your temperature. Yet, you still don’t try and keep yourself warmer when you get out of bed. You'll feel uncomfortable again if your temperature climbs higher.”
Theodore kept quiet, but his eyes were fixed on Ariana.
She didn’t notice that he had been staring at her the whole time. She pushed his wheelchair to the dining table. There were already three dishes there.
After ensuring Theodore was comfortable, Ariana walked into the kitchen and took out two more dishes before setting the table for their meal.
“There were only these in the fridge,” she said casually as she set the table. She then pulled out a chair opposite him and sat down as she chided, “You're an adult, but you still can’t take care of yourself. You didn’t even ask others for help or go to the doctor when you're sick. And even your fridge is empty! Besides, where are your rehabilitation equipment? | bet your legs haven't recovered because of your stupidity.” ©
Ariana felt thirsty after scolding him. She picked up her glass and sipped some warm water. Suddenly, she realized something was wrong. Why wasn’t Theodore rebutting her?
In the past, he would have been sarcastic and argued with her. Did he become mute?
Ariana raised her head and met Theodore’s eyes. She was caught off guard by his gaze and was stunned.
She didn’t know how long he had been looking. Ariana flushed. She touched her cheeks subconsciously to check if there was anything on her, which amused Theodore. Ariana flushed a deeper red. She took a spoonful of potatoes and shoved it onto Theodore’s plate. “Eat up!” she ordered.
Theodore grinned slightly as he picked up the spoon and tasted the congee. “Not bad. Your skills are good,” he complimented her sincerely.
Ariana was a good cook. During her studies abroad, she had to cook her meals whenever she was free as she couldn’t get used to the local food.
However, she felt conscious when Theodore praised her sincerely. ©
