Dexter released a lengthy breath. "Don't speak of such nonsense."
Looking at him intently, Julian said, "Hey, remember when you told| understood you better than anyone

“Angela's been making strides, and it seems like she's slipping out of your grasp. That must be unsettling for
you, huh? You want to hold on to her, but it feels like

you can't."
"Given your current state, perhaps it's best to take a moment and relax. Why don't | lend you a hand?" Julian's
eyes lit up as if he'd just thought of something.
Angela and Bella were engaged in lively conversation off to the side. Julian approached them, holding two
glasses of wine, and asked, “May | offer you ladies a drink?”
Angela hesitated. After all, Julian had just been chatting with Dexter. Who knew what they'd been discussing?
However, he didn't clarify which glass was intended for whom. Surely he wouldn't harm his own wife, right?

Angela was left with no other option but to drink. After that, she bid farewell to Bella and Finn before trailing
behind Dexter to head back to the hotel.
The journey passed in silence, with neither of them uttering a single word. As soon as they reached the hotel,
they went into their own rooms in the suite.
Angela was fast asleep in the small bedroom. Diagonally opposite her bed was a window she'd opened before
turning in for the night.
But in the middle of the night, she felt unbearably hot and stuffy.
An inexplicable heat radiated from within her body, causing a prickly and uncomfortable sensation. It felt as if
her entire body was numb and tingling at the stime.
But what was even more unsettling were the impure thoughts that crept into her mind, filling it with unrealistic
and shameful fantasies.
She quickly got up from bed, planning to splash cold water on her face. To her surprise, a towering man stood
before her as soon as she opened the door, almost as if he were about to knock.
“What's going on? Why were you thrashing around like that?” Dexter asked with his brows

furrowed.
He'd stumbled out of bed in the middle of the night, clad in a silk robe loosely wrapped around his waist. The dim
moonlight highlighted the curves and shadows of his chest and abs, exuding an alluring charm.
Angela's throat tightened as she swallowed. Her legs almost gave out beneath her, but she managed to steady
herself by gripping onto the door frquickly, her gaze clearing up
once more.
Dexter extended his hand to steady her and asked, "Are you feeling feverish? Would you liketo call a doctor
for you?"
He placed his hand against her forehead, confirming that she did indeed have a slight fever.
However, his hands were freezing cold, almost like ice, and it seemed as though they could lower her
temperature.
Angela's mouth was parched, and she couldn't resist the urge to move closer to him. Her mind felt like it was
drifting away. She felt scared. Something was definitely off.
“Get out of the way!" She hurriedly pushed him away and went straight into the bathroom. As she splashed
water on her face, the cold sensation helped to provide srelief and clear her mind. Excellent!

Damn him! She wouldn't let him mess with her head!
It was already past 1:00 am when she cout, shivering while wrapped in a bath towel. She simply dried her
hair and then went to bed.
The scores of the preliminary contest would be announced the next day. She didn't want her condition to worsen
if she stayed late.
However, to her despair, in the latter half of the night, she developed a fever so severe that she babbled
deliriously. Dexter broke down the door and rushed directly into the room.
