After walking for a while, Lydia stumbled upon a small pond.
Her heart leaped with relief as she found a tree for Quincy to lean against. She tore a strip of fabric from her skirt and soaked it in the cool water. She then began to gently wipe Quincy's feverish body.
As she worked, she murmured to herself, "Quincy, you have to get better. When we get back, I'll agree to whatever you ask."
She assumed Quincy was too delirious to hear her. However, he reached out suddenly and grabbed her hand tightly. He asked with his intense gaze. "Do you really mean that?"
Lydia was startled. If it weren't for Quincy’s body still burning with fever, she might have thought he was faking it. Blushing, she said, "I didn’t say anything. Let go of me, now."
Quincy chuckled weakly. "No way, I heard every word."
Lydia looked down, embarrassed, and gave him a light shove. "I think you're just pretending to be sick."
Hearing this, Quincy immediately looked hurt. He took Lydia’s hand and placed it on his chest, saying, "Feel for yourself and see if I’m lying."
The heat radiating from his body made Lydia drop her teasing. Her brows furrowed with concern. "You’re really not okay. We need to get you some help."
As she helped Quincy up, Lydia suddenly stopped in her tracks. A glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes. She had spotted a middle-aged man with a hunting dog, out in the woods.
She quickly approached him, "Excuse me, sir, do you live nearby?"
The urgency in her voice made the man take a closer look. "What's going on?" he asked.

Can you add more chapters per day please...
Don't tell me 🤯 Is Nina pharaoh's daughter?...
Meanwhile why is Nina playing hard to get? What else does she want from the man? I bet if Nash ever declares to kove the baby unconditionally she might soften up but lady just spill the secret he would be overjoyed!...
I see you increased the number of chapters per day by 2, but please can we have like 20 chapters per day? 7 chapters is too little, the suspense is just crazy...
