NovelEnglishAs Vania was too worried about Hanson, it didn’t occur to her why no one tried to bring down his fever
with the medicine earlier. Besides that, she failed to notice that the content level of the man’s IV drip
attached to his hand never changed. Thus, the unsuspecting lady was completely unaware of the
man’s pretense.
At that moment, Hanson continued to lie down in bed with stillness while Vania came to realize it was
her first time getting so close to the man. While thoughtfully observing his facial features, she could
sense his indifference and coldness despite being bedridden. She noticed Hanson’s thick eyebrows
and chiseled face, and she begrudgingly admitted that his good looks were one in a million.
Soon, she remembered she had long discovered the resemblance that Hanson shared with her three
babies in terms of their appearances, wondering whether it was pure coincidence.
Just when Vania was absorbed in her train of thought, April came in with a few boxes of medicine in his
hands. Then, he intentionally said it out loud in front of Hanson while showing Vania the medicine for
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHanson. “Mrs. Luke, these are the pills that Hanson will need to take. Please make sure he takes his
medication; he’s always been against taking them, which is why his condition is so serious now.”
While holding the boxes of medicine in her hand, Vania skimmed through the prescription written on the
cover and realized they were indeed used to treat gastric conditions. At the same time, she was
annoyed after hearing what April said while lecturing Hanson on the inside for his stubbornness to take
his medication. Really, Hanson? You’re a grown man, so how could you refuse to take your medication
and risk your health?
Then, April replied, “This is not his first gastric condition. Instead, it’s the most serious one, considering
how long he’s been unconscious until now. Anyway, there shouldn’t be any further issue with his health
if he controls his diet strictly just like he did in the past.”
In response, Vania nodded, indicating that she had understood April’s words. At the same time, she
concluded Hanson’s condition as nothing more than a relapse of his illness, which she reckoned was
just a little bit more serious than usual without concerning his health critically.
However, she couldn’t help but wonder why Larry had been crying so dramatically since Hanson’s
condition was not as bad as it looked. Is this his first time knowing about Larry’s condition?
On the other hand, Hanson was especially happy with April’s tactful way of delivering the explanation,
thinking it would make it a lot easier for him to play it off when he ‘woke up’ later.
Nonetheless, Vania was too worried to dwell on her puzzlement as she turned her attention back to
Hanson, asking in a concerned manner, “Please come and have a look at him. Is he having a fever or
something? He is so feverish that his cheeks are turning red.”
Upon hearing the lady’s words, April sniggered in amusement shortly before he immediately kept his
straight face, but despite his quick reaction, Vania spotted his reaction and stared at his smile in
confusion. “What’s wrong?” Why would he chuckle all of a sudden?
Damn it… April’s heart skipped a beat, for he had nearly ruined Hanson’s plan by almost bursting into
laughter. Oh, dear! That’s not a fever. That’s because he’s been using the electric blanket too liberally.
Despite that, April still had to give Vania a convincing answer. “Oh, there is something you may not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhave been aware of, Mrs. Luke. Hanson has always been the hero among us, so when you said he had
a fever, something funny just sprang to my mind, which was why I chuckled a bit. Don’t worry about
him, though, for he has already taken his medication. His fever is going to subside, and he will be fine
in a while.”
“When will he come around then?” Vania asked while raising her eyebrows.
April stared at Hanson, but when he didn’t see any gesture from the latter, he made up an explanation
and said, “Well, that depends on his will.”
“What do you mean by that?” It’s not like he is going to be paralyzed, so why does he need to depend
on his will?
“Well, what I’m trying to say is that perhaps Hanson still doesn’t want to wake up, which is why he is
still unconscious, but I’m sure it’ll help if you could talk to him more often,” April answered.
“Really? Is that going to work?” Vania raised her eyebrows skeptically.
“Of course.” April nodded.
The next moment, Vania went ahead and blurted out for some reason, asking, “He fell ill last night, so
are you sure he is not just sleeping now?”
