Chapter 672
With the messages sent out, Serenity stuffed the phone back into her pocket.
Everybody must be asleep since it was late at night. She did not count on receiving an immediate reply.
Zachary gradually came around.
Opening his eyes, Zachary deliberately made a bewildered face as if he could not believe Serenity was here. He lifted his free hand and rubbed his eyes while mumbling to himself, "Is the fever getting to me? Are my eyes deceiving me? Why is my Seren here?"
Serenity pulled his arm away from his face and gave him a hard pinch on the hand.
"Owl"
"Does it hurt?” Serenity asked him.
Zachary pulled those cute puppy dog eyes. "It hurts. It hurts so bad."
"It's good that you felt the pain. You're not dreaming. This is reality. I told you I'll make my way here if you don't get a doctor's appointment.”
Zachary was about to sit up.
"Lie down. You're in a hospital. You're still burning up. I don’t know why you want to tough it out.”
Serenity pressed him down. "Now lie yourself down. How do you feel now?"
"My temperature has gone down but not completely. My throat feels sore. Even my voice is hoarse. Cough, cough...”
Zachary hacked his throat.
"I'm starting to cough. Seren, can you ask the nurse for a mask? I have a viral cold, so you might get it from me.”
