Raising My Wife novel Chapter 29

As they finally arrived at the villa, James entered the villa, still holding Lily in his arms. Lily was still sleeping.

As soon as James entered the living room, he saw David waiting there.

"Let's go upstairs." James signaled for David to go upstairs. Then he turned to Lara and said, "Lara, please cook some porridge for us."

"Okay, okay, I'll do it right now." Seeing Lily in James's arms, Lara's heart ached. Lara had been worried since she called in the afternoon. Seeing Lily suffer so severe sickness, Lara felt sad and hurried to the kitchen to cook porridge.

James went upstairs, holding Lily in his arms, and David followed James closely. Both of them walked heavy steps.

As they entered Lily's room, James put Lily on the bed and tucked her in. His movements were soft.

Leaving the warm embrace of James made Lily groan. She frowned and stretched out her hand from the quilt, trying to grab James's hand. Seeing Lily like this, James remained calm and forced her hand back. He knew that Lily's most needing thing was treatment at this moment.

Putting away Lily, James glanced at David and beckoned him to come up.

Knowing James's meaning, David walked up to his medicine box and took out a thermometer to measure Lily's body temperature. Then he observed all the symptoms of Lily. During the examination, James stood aside and looked at her.

Under the pressure of James, David finished the examination. "Nothing serious. Let's go out to have a talk." Putting away the medical kit, David went out with James.

When getting out of Lily's room and closing the door, David noticed the mud on James's trousers. Thinking that James would have such an embarrassing side, David asked, "Is she that person?"

James didn't say anything, neither did he refute. It seemed that David was right. David said in his heart, 'No wonder.'

"She's fine. The fever is reducing. I'll prescribe some medicine for her. When she wakes up, she can eat something first and then drink some medicine." Knowing that James wouldn't answer, David continued, "she is in poor health and she has got a fever this time. Because she is weak of immunity during her menstrual period. It seems that she got a fever just because she got wet in the rain."

"Okay." James replied.

With a look at James, David added, "You should take care of yourself too. Have you sufferd from your old disease? You are already thirty years old. Go and change your clothes. Take a shower before she gets better. Don't make yourself sick. I don't want to come here all the time."

As long as David was with James, David will automatically add the nanny attribute. David can't figure out the reason. When he first knew James, James was just like a cold man. When David thought of their first meeting, several years had passed in a flash. Time was wasted. David sighed.

"Go back," James tried to make his tone not so stiff, but the tone was too strong which seemed that James was expelling David.

Three minutes later, Lara saw furious David coming down the stairs. She ran to him immediately and asked, "David, is Miss Lillias all right?"

David still showed respect to dutiful Lara, "that's all right. By the way, please make some ginger soup for Mr. James. He got wet in the rain today." Although David was in a rage, when he saw that James's back was wet from head to foot, David had to take care of it. David comforted himself that he would still have to face him if James got sick.

James had been waiting for Lily to wake up aside. But Lily was still sleeping when the porridge turned cold. Yet, James insisted on guarding Lily without complaint.

Lily didn't know how long she had been sleeping. She said softly and quietly that she wanted to drink water. Her voice was a little weak and tired. It seemed that she was still sleeping. James asked Lara to send him the warm water. He sat on the bed and helped Lily sit up. James let Lily leaned against him and put the glass beside her mouth.

Lily's fever turned her into particularly thirsty. Although she had not yet woken up, she drank it as soon as she felt the water beside her mouth. The water was warm, which was soft for Lily to drink. She drank it with quickly, and soon the cup was drunk up.

After drinking the water, Lily lied down on the bed again and James tucked her in. When she breathed evenly, James sat down by the bed.

One of them was sitting quietly, and the other was asleep quietly. There was no sound, but Lily's light and even breathing.

Lily wasn't at home in the past few days. Every night when James came back, he would come to Lily's room to have a look, as if Lily was still there. How to describe this feeling? Just like his daughter had left him, he was worried about her all the time.

In the afternoon, Lara called James. In fact, James was also a little nervous when he heard Lara's anxious voice. The moment he saw real Lily when he got to school, James was mad and furious. He felt angry about himself who let her attend the military training.

Sitting there, James had mixed feelings.

He had been sitting by her bed since midnight, worrying that she would wake up.
