Euralia shook her head. Seeing her brother didn't believe her at all, she couldn't help being anxious. "Brother, please believe me. It's not a dream. It's true!"
"Who is that man?"
"No, I don't know him." Euralia was taken aback
"What does he look like?"
"I don't know. He is wearing a mask." After saying that, she lowered her head in frustration.
Bill sighed and said, "Euralia, those are not true. You just had a nightmare."
"So, promise me to forget about it, okay?"
Raising her head in a daze, she heard Bill's gentle voice with a kind of bewitching power. She almost believed that everything happened last night was just a nightmare.
However, every sentence, every look in his eyes and every action of the man wearing a mask last night seemed to be deeply rooted in her mind.
How could it be a dream?
Bill's voice was even softer. He gently held her in his arms and patted her on the shoulder: "you probably had a cold last night, so you had a high fever that night. Now you are still very weak. Don't think too much."
She was in low spirits and didn't know what to say.
"Come and eat something first."
With these words, Zoe picked up a bowl of porridge from the bedside, tested the temperature, and said, "it has been cold for a while, and its temperature is just right. Eat it while it is hot."
With Zoe's persuasion, Euralia opened her mouth numbly and ate up the porridge in her bowl bit by bit.
Her empty stomach finally started to warm up. It seemed that she had recovered a lot. The scenes of last night started to come back to her mind.
It seemed that Bill saw through Euralia's absent mindedness. After tidying up the bowls and chopsticks for her, he comforted her for a while and was about to leave.
