Chapter 350
They reached the car, and Mia let go, throwing the door open. “Get in.”
She looked incredibly annoyed.
Ethan’s brow furrowed. “I wouldn’t want to be a hassle for Ms. Carter.”
He pointedly emphasized the word “hassle.”
Ethan usually had an iron constitution. In the years Mia had been with him, he had rarely been sick. He had certainly never had a fever like this. It felt like he was being stubborn out of spite-either with Mia or with
imself.
Mia warned him, “If your fever doesn’t break, you’re going to end up with brain damage.”
Ethan shot her a look. Her tone suggested she already thought he was an idiot.
Call Cole to come here.”
If Dr. Preston comes, then I-”
Then I won’t have to stay.”
Mia caught herself and changed her sentence. “I’m already here. Don’t bother Dr. Preston.”
imart as he was, Ethan knew exactly what the end of that first sentence was supposed to be.
You’ve overdosed on the wrong medicine. It can be fatal. We’re going to the ER.”
Regardless of his protests, Mia called Leo Martinez to arrange for a doctor again. In the middle of the night,
eople in both Northbrook and Everett were being run ragged because of Ethan Hale.
Mia figured Ethan was actually afraid of dying, because he stopped resisting and followed her to the hospital.
t was the same scene as the night before, but this time, a top-tier specialist had been called in specifically to see
It’s a good thing Mr. Hale took the wrong dose of the ‘wrong’ medicine! It says two pills per dose, and he only ook one. Otherwise, we’d be looking at a real disaster!”
The doctor was wiping cold sweat from his forehead. If something had actually happened to Ethan, the entire hospital wouldn’t be enough to pay for the damage.
He’s still running a fever,” Mia noted, her head starting to ache. “Give him something for the fever first. And for he other medicines, write the instructions on the boxes. Write them in big letters.”
The doctor nodded repeatedly, marking the usage and dosage on every single box.
Take these according to the doctor’s notes,” Mia said softly to Ethan.
Ethan sat in a chair, legs crossed, his white shirt unbuttoned at the collar. He had a layer of dark stubble on his jaw. Under the bright lights of the exam room, his rugged face finally showed the full extent of his sickly exhaustion.
After a few seconds of silence, Mia turned back to the doctor. “Which one is the fever reducer? Mark it with a red
pen.”

The doctor felt his pulse racing as sweat poured down his face. “Ms. Carter, it’s best if Mr. Hale isn’t left alone for the next two days, just in case there are further complications. While travel sickness usually isn’t fatal, if it’s severe enough to cause other issues, it’s hard to say.”
Mia took the thermometer from Ethan. 103.3 degrees.
The fact that he had been burning up all day and was still conscious was a miracle.
‘I’ll give him the fever medicine now. Can you just admit him to the hospital?”
