"Nora."
Anya walked over at some point holding a glass of warm water.
The young girl watched Nora's actions and spoke in a small voice.
"Mr. Hayes is burning up. Should we try to feed him some water?"
Nora paused her wiping and dropped the towel back into the basin.
"Just leave the water on the side."
Nora's voice sounded a bit hoarse, her gaze never leaving Gideon's face.
Time slipped away in the long silence.
It wasn't until the IV bag was empty that the doctor came in and removed the needle.
The fever reducers and antibiotics were slowly taking effect. Gideon's high temperature began to drop, and his rapid breathing gradually leveled out.
"Mrs. Hayes, his temperature is down to a hundred degrees. He is out of danger of going into shock for now."
The doctor stood up and reported the situation to Nora.
Nora looked at the doctor, expressionlessly shifting her numb wrist that was still trapped in his grip.
"Since he's out of danger, get him out of here."
The doctor looked troubled, glancing around the meager accommodations of the flower shop.
"Ma'am, Mr. Hayes's condition is only temporarily stable. It's highly likely his fever will spike again in the middle of the night. I suggest... we move him back to the estate."
The doctor paused, his eyes falling on Gideon's hand still tightly clutching Nora's.
"He can't be separated from you right now."
Following the doctor's gaze, Nora looked down at the hand she couldn't shake off.
She took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the irritation surging in her heart.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Love I Begged For Was Never Real
Storyline is good..but author is wasting time on character's thoughts.why r u streching chapters it's really really boring and annoying.conversation between them childish.she is only saying him get out n what right do u have ..not telling him what he did to her not questioning him..demanding answer. And what happened to him why sudden change of heart care to explain author.....
For the past few chapters either she is sick or he is. It is slightly boring. Author pls let them talk about the issues , she is not at all scolding him.. every scoldings are playing in her mind only. We want some talk between them....
I am also thinking the same....
Has he mistaken Nora as Giselle?...
What happened to him🤔 did he forget everything?...
Hey can u also upload the book " woke up married to my cheating ex"....
Does he know the orphan girl is actually Nora?...
So is he trying to justify everything? At wat rite??? Wer were he wen she needed him the most.......
Haha finally going to see redemption...
I don’t think reborn will happen in this novel. It will be full of her blood only. Actually The title should be changed to only Nora’s suffering instead the love I begged was never real....
