Late At Night
+15 Bonus
Nathaniel stayed up late in his study, poring over documents before returning to his bedroom.
A subtle scent of flowers and fruit lingered in the air. I was the aroma of a woman who had just finished
bathing. His eyes landed on the bed, where Christina had buried herself under the covers, with only her
head sticking out.
He walked over and lifted the blanket, whispering, “Silly girl, won’t you have trouble breathing like
this…”
Suddenly, his words were caught in his throat.
Christina’s cheeks were flushed with a rosy hue, and her nose was tinged with a pink shade. She
looked like a ripened tomato.
Her long eyelashes trembled as she struggled to open her eyes. Despite her blurred vision, the man’s
handsome features remained strikingly clear.
Christina struggled to speak due to the sharp pain in her throat. “Umm…”
haniel immediately covered her burning forehead, his eyebrows furrowed with concern. “It’s very
hot. You have a fever.”
“Hmm, seems like it,” Christina whispered weakly. It was no wonder that she felt tired and drowsy
earlier. Yet, the more she dozed off, the more exhausted she became.
Nathaniel quickly grabbed his phone and called their family doctor, Daryl Zadoff. “Come over right
away.”
After hanging up, he sat on the edge of the bed and lifted Christina into his arms. Her body felt like a
burning furnace, radiating intense heat that warmed his chest.
In fact, she was so weak from the prolonged fever that she looked like a wilted flower nestled in his
armis.
Christina’s breathing was shallow and delicate, evoking a strong protective instinct in those around her.
Nathaniel furrowed his brows and instructed the housekeeper outside, “Get me some water, now.”
In a matter of minutes, the tranquil Scenic Garden Manor suddenly sprang to life, and everyone began
bustling about.
Even Sebastian hurried over to help.
He rushed over after receiving Daryl’s call, thinking it was Nathaniel who was feeling unwell. It wasn’t
until he arrived that he realized Christina had fallen ill.
Daryl tried to calm the grumpy Sebastian down by explaining, “Mr. Hadley sounded mad on the phone.
I was afraid something was wrong, so I figured it was better to have you come, just to be safe.”
Just then, a deep, menacing voice sounded from inside the room. “Why are you standing there? Did I
ask you to come here to chat?”
Flustered and scared, the duo hurriedly rushed into the room.
As Daryl’s eyes fell upon the girl cradled in Nathaniel’s embrace, he couldn’t help but gasp. Her beauty
was breathtaking, enough to set one’s heart racing.
“Have you taken her temperature, Mr. Hadley?”
In response, Nathaniel glared at him. “Not yet.”
Daryl broke out in cold sweat. He couldn’t help but question Nathaniel’s ability to care for a patient as
he hadn’t even taken Christina’s temperature, despite her obvious fever.
“Let’s take her temperature first.”
After helping Christina lie down, Nathaniel took her temperature. Five minutes later, Daryl prescribed
medicine.
Not long after, the housekeeper arrived with a jug of warm water and set it down by the bedside.
Nathaniel, known for his reserved and proud demeanor, fed Christina water with great care and
tenderness. Watching him, she couldn’t help but feel amused and let out a gentle chuckle.
After a ten-minute wait, Nathaniel once again touched Christina’s forehead; his expression immédiately
turned grim.
As he rose abruptly from his seat, the man’s towering figure seemed to fill the room with palpable
anger.
His cold gaze fell on Daryl. “Why hasn’t her fever gone down yet?”
The doctor was startled by Nathaniel’s question. After all, it was common knowledge that it would take
time for the medicine to take effect.
Why is this cool-headed man losing his wits when Christina is sick?
“Don’t worry, Mr. Hadley. You need to wait for the medicine to take effect. The fever should subside half
an hour later,” Sebastian hurriedly explained.
“That’s right. The medicine needs time to be absorbed into the body,” Daryl added, wiping the sweat
from his forehead.
Nathaniel loosened his collar and instructed, “Get out
With that, Sebastian and Daryl quickly left the room
They exchanged a look and let out a sigh of relief before making their way downstairs,
As Christina drifted off to sleep after taking her medicine, she was besieged by a relentless wave of
heat
and sweat.
It was as if she had been cast into a scorching desert and buried under layer upon layer of searing
sand, -her-body writhing in discomfort.
“Hot… so hot…” she moaned softly.
Nathaniel kept a vigilant watch at the young woman’s bedside; his eyes fixated on the gentle slope of
her ivory skin and the enticing curves of her figure as she pulled his collar.
A surge of heat rippled through him, his emotions running wild as he strode over and took hold of her
small, trembling hand.
Nathaniel realized Christina was tugging his collar because she was soaked in sweat.
He strode into the bathroom and fetched a hot towel. Carefully, he wiped away the beads of sweat that
had gathered on Christina’s skin. Her complexion had paled, a clear sign that her fever had subsided.
Coincidentally, her complexion was a peachy, translucent white, and the scent wafting from her body.
was enough to leave one spellbound.
As Nathaniel trailed his hand up her back to wipe off her sweat, he couldn’t ignore the supple and dewy
texture of her skin. The searing heat under his fingertips caused him to shudder as though he had been
electrocuted.
As Christina’s head leaned against Nathaniel’s shoulder, he couldn’t help but feel the warmth of her
breath on his neck.
He raised his brow slightly and reached out to help her lie down. However, she leaned in and planted a
soft kiss on his cheek.
Suddenly, she murmured in a soft, sultry voice, “Jelly tastes so good.”
Nathaniel’s temples throbbed as he wondered if Christina had mistaken him for food.
Next, he cradled her neck with his hand and lowered her onto the bed. Enveloping her in a tender
embrace, he placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.
Nathaniel had hoped to settle in for a peaceful night’s rest. Unfortunately, Christina continuously tossed
and kicked the covers in search of a comfortable position.
Eventually, he resorted to wrapping his muscular thighs around her soft body, pulling her close until she
finally quieted. They slept soundly, their bodies entwined through the night.
The morning light pierced through the window, casting a golden glow over the room.
As Christina slowly opened her eyes, she felt the stiffness in her body, having spent the whole night in
the same position. She had turned into a human cushion for the man beside her, providing him with
support throughout the night.
She lifted her hand to push away his arm draped over her waist. Just as she was about to get out of
bed, Nathaniel pulled her back again.
When Christina turned to face him, she was stunned by the sight of his handsome, sleeping face.
Seeing such a delightful sight first thing in the morning lifted her spirits considerably.
After a good night’s rest, the dizziness and fatigue from the night before had disappeared. She felt
completely rejuvenated, all ready to seize the day.
Glancing at the clock on the bedside table, she realized it was already ten o’clock. Nathaniel, however,
remained sound asleep, showing no signs of getting up.
Christina whispered in his ear, “It’s getting late. Don’t you have to go to work?”
