She could not help but smile bitterly. If she was not bitten to death today, she would be struck by lightning!
Shawn suddenly stopped and looked at her trembling body. He couldn't help but frown.
He grabbed Joye’s arm, and strode away, dragging her into the car that was parked at the side.
Although the heater wasn’t turned on, the temperature inside the car was much warmer than it was outside. Joye's mind was a little groggy, and her whole body no longer had any strength to struggle.
Shawn's anger lasted for nearly an hour. Seeing that Joye seemed to have fallen asleep on the seat, he became more anxious for no reason.
"Don't think that I'll let you go every time you faint."
Shawn pushed her shoulder hard, and Joye's head fell heavily on the door frame along with a muffled thud.
He was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately placed his big hand on her smooth and wet forehead. His expression also changed as the skin under his hand was extremely hot.
"Joye, wake up. Wake up, please."
He patted her face several times but there was no response, and the temperature beneath his palm was getting higher and higher. A hint of panic flashed across Shawn's eyes. He quickly took off his slightly dry shirt and wrapped it around her exposed skin. He lifted her up and quickly ran towards the apartment elevator. He was so anxious that he even forgot to close his car door.
Fortunately, he found the key to her apartment in her pocket. After entering the apartment, he brought her straight to the bathroom.
He washed her with hot water, warming up her chilled bones then wiped her dry with a thick bath towel. After that, he carried her back to the bed.
Shawn rummaged through all the drawers in the room and found that she did not have any medicine for fever. His expression became more and more anxious as he took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Connor, quickly go to the pharmacy. Buy some fever medication and bring it here to the Birming Mansion."
"What? Little brother, you need a tranquilizer?"
The call was noisy, Connor was not taking things seriously. Shawn could even hear a woman's noisy breathing.
"Don't talk nonsense. I know you are at Red Sleeves. If I don't see you in ten minutes, Red Sleeves will be closed tomorrow."
Shawn hung up right away. Salmon's residence was relatively far away while the Red Sleeves was only two streets away. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to ask for his help.
Connor grumbled to himself, "F*ck, you haven’t talked to me for a whole month and you call just to order me around. Every time you come to me, you have this attitude. You guys can play by yourselves. I have something to deal with."
"By the way, do you guys know what kind of medicine is more effective for fever?"
。Connor was dressed in a beautiful suit and had a casual, nonchalant air about him. While asking, he remembered to wink at the big-chested girl sitting in the corner.
"Connor, we don't have a fever, we just..."
The woman responded with a sweet smile. Connor knew that he could not get anything out of her. He caressed her with his big hands, turned around, and walked out quickly.
There were only a few people who could make Shawn so anxious.
How interesting.
Joye was so hot that she started shivering uncontrollably. Unconsciously, she started crying out.
"C–cold. S–so cold."
"You’re still cold? I have adjusted the heater to the highest level."
Shawn folded the blanket into two and covered her trembling body.
