“Oh no!” When Louis saw that Diana had hit her head, he was startled for a while before helping her up. “I’m sorry, Diana. I didn’t do it on purpose.”
“You’re so caring, Diana,” remarked Morgan mockingly. “Sir Louis is an adult, yet he still needs someone to feed him, huh?”
Morgan’s personality had always been straightforward and hot-tempered, so she spoke anything that was on her mind.
“As Louis is having a high fever, he’s really weak. That’s why I’m helping him take his medicine.” Still polite, Diana ignored the wound on her forehead and explained with her head lowered, “Don’t misunderstand, Ms. Lindberg!”
“I won’t. We’re a family, anyway.” Charlotte smiled. “Is your forehead alright?”
“I’m fine.” Holding her forehead, Diana said humbly, “Since you’re already here, I’ll leave first.”
She bowed and left.
Morgan and the other two maids tidied the place and headed out too, leaving only Louis and Charlotte in the room.
Louis quickly explained, “Charlotte…”
“Are you having a fever?” interrupted Charlotte. When she touched his forehead, it felt quite warm. “What happened? Didn’t you take the medicine?”
“I did.” Louis nodded. “I drank the herbal concoction that Sam sent last night and this morning. However, since I still feel uncomfortable, Diana sent me some medicine.”
“You can’t take both of them together, right?” Charlotte glanced at the medicine on the table, frowning. “Change your clothes. I’ll take you to Dr. Felch.”
“He already came half an hour ago.” Louis looked a bit troubled. “My mom was here too and they had a discussion. She said that my body’s more suited for western medicine, so…”
“Okay, then.” Although Charlotte felt quite speechless, she understood where Sherlyn was coming from. “I understand that perspective can be different, so I respect Lady Sherlyn’s choice.”
“Do you think that Dr. Felch will be upset?” Louis was nervous. “I wanted to apologize and explain to him earlier, but he left quickly, saying that he needed to prepare the other medicine.”
“It’s fine. He’s not that petty, okay?” Charlotte smiled. “Since Lady Sherlyn has already prescribed some medicine for you, take them on time and rest well.”
