Rebecca said, "Are you sure you don't want to take any medicine?" "No need." Sherilyn sipped her water slowly, shaking her head. “I feel much better." She had caught a chill and was running a slight fever. However, she dared not take any medication.
At the moment, she wasn't sure if she was pregnant and she couldn't take medicine carelessly.

"Who is it? Coming." Opening the door, Rebecca froze, involuntarily swallowing hard, "John...
Mr. Johnson?" Gilbert smirked, thinking Rebecca's expression said it all! "Sherilyn!" He strode past Rebecca, making his way into the bedroom.
The moment he appeared, Sherilyn visibly flinched, instinctively pulling the covers closer and shrinking back. He found her! He found his way there!

Rebecca visibly freaked out. Her petite face turned pale, but she refused to budge. "Sherilyn is hiding because she doesn't want to see you!" Although she wasn't aware of the specifics, friends were supposed to support each other.
Hah. Gilbert scoffed, his patience running thin. He wasn't there to waste his words on someone m irrelevant Lifting his hand, he reached out to grasp Rebecca's wrist. "Sorry, but if you don't move, I'll have to be rude!" With a slight tug, he pulled Rebecca aside, sending her tumbling away.
"Ah!" Rebecca cried out, stumbling backward, accidentally entally crashing into Francis, who was entering in the wheelchair. "Be careful!" Francis quickly reached out to steady her.
Still in shock, Rebecca blushed as she had almost landed fully in Francis's lap! Oh my God! In a wheelchair? Was he disabled? Did she crush his legs?
"Ah!" Rebecca sprang up as if electrified, apologizing profusely, "I'm so sorry I'm so sorry! It wasn't on En: purpose!" Francis didn't let go immediately. Once Rebecca was steady, he asked, "If I let go now, you won't fall, right?" "Um, no!" Rebecca's head bobbed like a drum, her words stumbling, "I, I'm standing fine now."
