That night at the mansion, Roxanne had just finished giving the children their baths. Once she was done telling them their bedtime stories, she went down to the first floor.
Lucian was still busy working downstairs. There were some things that even Cayden could not handle, such as a client from Epea who suddenly had lots of questions. By the looks of it, the client might even want to cancel their collaboration.
No matter how much Cayden tried to calm the client down, it was futile. Hence, Lucian had no choice but to handle the client himself.
To make matters worse, the client refused to answer any of his phone calls, so he could only communicate with the client via email.
Roxanne was about to remind Lucian to take a rest when she noticed that his face was flushed.
Oh no! He's having a fever!
Roxanne walked up to him and touched his forehead.
True enough, he was running a high temperature.
“You have a fever! Stop working. Let me take a look at you.” He was still typing, so Roxanne stopped him.
“Really? No wonder I'm feeling hot.” Lucian did not seem bothered by his high temperature and appeared indifferent.
Roxanne, on the other hand, was worried. “Let me check your temperature right now. Drink some water first. Why aren't you sweating?”
She took a look at the thermometer and saw that his temperature was thirty-eight point five degrees Celsius.
He was running a high fever.
If he had been a child, he would have been in terrible shape.
“Enough. Stop working. You must have caught a cold at the oceanarium. Did you swallow any water when you dived into the pool?” asked Roxanne. When she saw that Lucian had sent the email, she shut the laptop.
Thereafter, she went into doctor mode and began to treat him.
Not only did she replenish his fluids, but she also gave him antibiotics because Lucian might have come into contact with bacteria in the pool.
