Chapter 305 Overtired
Just as Roxanne was stumped, the man’s figure appeared in the doorway.
Upon seeing the woman on the bed, Lucian furrowed his brows.
With just a glance, he could already see that the woman’s fever was worse than the previous time.
“Mr. Farwell.” When Roxanne realized she could not avoid him anymore, she had no choice but to greet him in an aloof tone. However, that was all she did before averting his eyes, for she did not intend to speak much to him.
When Lucian sensed that the woman was still trying to keep a distance from him, his eyes darkened. Then, he turned to the side to say to Sonny, “Please take a look at her.”
Sonny nodded in response and stepped forward to give Roxanne a checkup.
Roxanne knitted her brows when she saw the unfamiliar man appear in her bedroom. But as her mind was fuzzy from the fever, she could not react in time to his action.
“This is the Farwell family’s family doctor. I brought him over to take a look at you,” Lucian said in a low voice.
A trace of resistance appeared in Roxanne’s eyes.
The Farwells’ family doctor is here to give me a checkup? What’s going on?
“It’s fine. I’m a doctor myself. I know what my condition is,” she coldly rejected. “If it’s serious, I’ll go to the hospital myself.”
Lucian furrowed his brows and tried to make her drop the tough act. “If you can get up, will you be talking to me while lying down now?”
Roxanne was taken aback.
As her fever was high, she had no strength. Moreover, she could not get Lysa in time to help her up into a sitting position when Lucian entered.
If she were to force herself upright immediately, she would only expose her condition to him.
Yet, she did not know how to accept Lucian’s goodwill.
