Chasing After My Beloved Wife novel Chapter 54

He held the umbrella and hesitated. “I must be crazy,” thought Connor. “It was raining so heavily that my clothes are all wet. Why did I run out to send an umbrella to the crazy woman?” Maybe he should check to see if she had transmitted some sort of craziness to him.

When he noticed her again, he saw that Janina had fallen to the ground.

Connor didn't know what was going on, but he suddenly turned around and ran toward her. He grabbed Janina and held her in his arms.

Janina's eyes were red, but her sight was already blurred. She grabbed his umbrella, opened it over her head, and glared at Connor. "I hate you! I hate you so much!"

"I am doing this out of kindness toward you."

Connor’s hair was completely wet. As he picked up the umbrella on the ground, he saw that Janina had already fainted.

"Hey, crazy woman, wake up!"

Connor slapped her twice to feel better. He then furrowed his brows, held the umbrella, and carried her.

"Why am I so kind? She bit me, but now I’m helping her.”

The rain was so heavy that there were no people or vehicles on the road. Connor had to carry Janina back to the Red Sleeves Bar. When the waiters saw them, they were taken aback.

What was going on?

"What are you waiting for? Open the door to the room upstairs."

He hurried upstairs and was about to throw her onto the bed. However, when he remembered that she was drenched, he immediately stopped. This bed had custom-made, Italian sheets. He glanced at the waiter behind him and said, "Why are you still standing there? Get out and close the door!"

“Yes, yes.”

After the door was closed, Connor looked at the unconscious woman. He had a trace of worry in his eyes.

After changing her clothes, he threw her onto the bed.

He heaved a sigh of relief when he pulled the blanket over her.

"I hate you..." She muttered in a hoarse and painful voice.

On the bed, Janina's brows were tightly knitted. Her face, which had been drenched by the rain, was abnormally red. Her features were twisted together and she looked like she was enduring endless pain.

Connor leaned over and bent down to put his hand on her forehead. “You have a fever already? Crazy woman, I had better take you to a hospital. If you die, I don’t want to be a suspect.”

"No, I don't want to go to the hospital."

Feeling her body was moved. Janina instinctively grabbed onto Connor’s arm and shook her head in a daze. "Mom, don't send me to the hospital. I want you and Dad to stay with me."

Connor froze.

Then his face darkened. No matter how much of a fever she had, she should not call him “Mom.”

"No, I have to send you to the hospital. You're sick.”

"Please, don't."
