The doctor immediately came over and started administering IV fluids. The nurse said, “Miss, his body temperature
is too high. We need to use physical cooling methods, although he’s receiving fluids. Can you help wipe down your
boyfriend’s body?”
Willow blinked and asked, “Uh? Wipe his body? “Yes, it will help reduce his temperature quickly. His condition isn’t
optimistic at the moment. Even though he has a good physical condition, he just underwent surgery.”
“But -”
“Alright. I’ll bring a basin of warm water here for you. We appreciate your help since it’s inconvenient for us to do it
ourselves.” After speaking, the nurse glanced at the injured person. If Willow were not here, she would be happy to
help!
Once the nurse left, Willow felt embarrassed and uttered, “But I’m not his girlfriend.” Soon, the nurse returned with
a basin of water and a clean towel. “Miss, please quickly wipe his body down and put the cool towel on his

After the nurse left, Willow had to wring the towel dry and gently apply it to the man’s forehead. Then, she soaked
the warmed towel in water, wrung it out, and started wiping the
man’s neck. She noticed his slender and toned neck, resembling a piece of art. It was her first time caring for
someone besides her family in such an intimate way. She gulped a few times since this made her nervous.
Just then, the feverish man woke up while Willow was bent down, wiping his chest. Their eyes met each other..
“Oh!” She quickly stood up and explained, “You have a high fever, so the nurse asked me to help with the physical
cooling. I’m not taking advantage of you!”
The man’s eyes were slightly bloodshot as he nodded in acknowledgment. At that moment, the nurse entered the
room carrying a tray of medicine. She took out a few packets and placed them on the nearby table, saying, “Miss.
Presgrave, these are the medicines for your boyfriend. Remember to feed them to him.”
Her face instantly turned red as she felt regretful for not explaining this to the nurse earlier. Now, being directly
pointed out by her was indeed embarrassing.
At that moment, Willow also felt the man’s gaze on her. Once the nurse left, she hurriedly explained to the man on
the bed, ‘Please don’t misunderstand. The nurse misunderstood us. Here! Take your medicine!” After saying that,
she got the medicine and handed it to the man with a glass of water.
He sat up and took the medicine and water swiftly. Then, she asked, “Are you still feeling ill?”
“No.” He lay back down, the high fever giving his face a rosy flush under the light. Ironically, he did not appear as
cold-hearted as before.
She placed a damped towel on his forehead and observed his condition.
“I’m Jasper Wyatt,” the man said suddenly. She could not help but smile. “Since you’re willing to tell me your name,
I’ll tell you mine too. I’m Willow Presgrave.”
The man glanced at her but remained silent. It was noon, and the man’s fever had subsided, though his
temperature was still a little high. Nevertheless, his condition had improved significantly.

for two more days. Once the doctor left, Jasper sat up and said, “I have to leave.” “But the doctor said-”
“I can take care of myself.” With that, he held his chest and pushed the door open. When he glanced at the
bodyguards, he spoke in a deep voice, “Take good care of Miss Presgrave. Please make sure she leaves the ship
safely.”
Willow returned to her hotel room, and her assistant, Lexie, walked in and asked, “Miss, should we disembark at the
next port?”
“Yes! Let’s disembark. We need to discuss a cultural relic protection law,” she replied.
During dinner, she could not help but worry about Jasper’s injury. She decided to call Ethan to inquire about his
room number. However, he informed her that there was no such person registered.
She was bewildered by the news. How could there be no record of Jasper? Soon, she realized this man must have
boarded the ship using a fake identity.
