Chapter 607
Shawn leaned closer, his handsome facial features magnified infinitely in front of her eyes…
“Ah!”
Gale screamed and sat up suddenly from the bed.
She was panting heavily, and her whole body seemed to be fished out of the water, covered in sweat.
Her hair stuck to her face, and her back was soaked.
It took Gale a while to recover.
This was the house she had lived in for four years.
It was the same cozy little town.
She did not go back to Sea City, did not see Shawn, and no one found out that she was still alive!
Just a dream!
It was a dream!
Gale closed her eyes, swallowed, and raised her hand to wipe the sweat off her face.
“Fortunately, it’s a dream. It’s just a dream… It was a false alarm,” she muttered to herself.
Zoe knocked on the door. “Gale, what’s the matter? I heard a scream. Are you right?”

“Oh, it’s okay!” Gale replied loudly and asked as she got out of bed, “How is Nicole?”
“She is still coughing, and taking medicine didn’t help. Besides, she seems to have worsened, and her gums are bleeding.”
When Gale heard this, she felt anxious and distressed and hurried to Nicole’s room.
Nicole sat on the bed, her face flushed red.
She pressed her teeth with a tissue, and the tissue was soon stained red.
“Mum, it’s bleeding. My mouth is swollen… cough, cough, it’s swollen,” she said.
“Nicole, let me see.”
Gale worriedly observed her gums. There was redness, swelling, and bleeding.
