Divorce Has Never Felt This Good (Becky and Rory) novel Chapter 135

Chapter 135 Carry You There

The illness made Becky slow on the uptake. She raised her head and looked at Devin. The sunlight just shone on his face and gave him an inexplicable tenderness.

Seeing that she was unresponsive, Devin touched her lips with the spoon, bringing her back to reality.

Becky came to her senses. She opened her mouth and ate the spoon of porridge.

As he had said, it was not hot.

The cold made Becky very uncomfortable and somewhat muddleheaded. After taking the first bite, she didn’t refuse to let Devin feed her anymore.

Becky ate up the porridge in silence. Devin tried not to bore her with any unnecessary conversation. “Thank you,” she muttered after she took her final swallow.

As Devin watched Becky’s face, he didn’t fail to notice how red her cheeks looked since she was having a fever. However, she looked more approachable than usual.

“Anytime.” Devin gently touched her forehead with his palm, clicking his tongue. “We must get you to the hospital.”

Becky felt hot all over. When Devin’s cool hand fell on her forehead, she felt comfortable.

“I don’t want to. Once I take the medicine I ordered online, I will be very much better,” Becky said as she shook her head. The bowl of porridge made her feel better.

Immediately after she finished speaking, they heard a knock on the door.

The delivery guy had brought the medicine Becky had ordered. When Devin collected the medicine from him, he threw it into the trash can. “What is it about hospitals that you are so afraid of?”

He bent down and looked at Becky with a small smile. “Come with me. Or would you mind if I carry you in my arms and take you there?”

Becky looked at him for a while. She could not deny that he was right. She nodded gently and sat up.

Her eyes misted because her nose was stuffed up. This made her appear unusually vulnerable in front of Devin.

“Let me get my coat.”

Devin flashed her a satisfactory smile and said, “Okay.”

Becky was among the few residents of Courtbush who had caught a cold and were visiting the hospital. There was no cause for alarm, however, for it was March, a season of late spring coldness.
