Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 458

Gideon nodded thoughtfully.

Nell was worried about his health, so she stood up quickly, not wanting to fool around with him any longer.

“You sit here and be good. I’ll call the doctor.”

Gideon did not try to stop her this time.

The doctor arrived in no time. After a round of examination, he concluded that it was just a fever he had likely contracted from exposure to the chilly wind. The good thing was that his fever was only 38.5 °C.

Gideon could not simply take any medication offered to him since he was wounded, so the doctor only gave him some Tylenol and asked Nell to drape cold towels on his body to cool his temperature before he left.

That night, Nell was busy switching out cold towels to cool his body.

Gideon felt for her and was afraid she would tire herself out. Holding her hand in his, he said, “Get Matthew up to do this. Go rest for a while.”

Nell shook her head.

Matthew might be caring, but he was still a man at the end of the day. There were just things he was not skilled in doing. Besides, both of them got to stay at home all the time these days while Matthew had to take care of their businesses day and night.

Nell did not express that thought out loud though. She only smiled. “What? You aren’t satisfied with my service?”

Gideon knew she was joking, so he only chuckled lightly and laid back down.

It was only a joke, but he felt something growing inside of him after she threw him a glare.

He narrowed his eyes, and his voice grew low and soft.

“Baby.”

Gideon took her hand in his when she answered.

“Babe…”

Nell’s face flared up, and her skin looked as red as a crayfish.

All she could manage was leveled another glare at him.

“Gideon Leith, stop fooling around.”

Gideon smirked a little. “I just want you to lay with me for a while. Nothing more. Your reaction made me think that you wanted something else.”

Nell widened her eyes. She could not believe those shameless words just came tumbling out of his mouth.

She threw the towel on him angrily and shouted, “Gideon Leith, quit playing with me, or else I won’t help you anymore!”

Gideon grinned. His soulful eyes were squeezed into two tiny crescent moons, but he still tried to pull her onto the bed shamelessly.

“How about you come to bed? I’ll behave when you do.”

Nell felt trapped.

She wanted to reject him, but she could not find the heart to do so when he had that helpless look on his face.

Gideon stared at her like a lost puppy. “Mrs. Leith, I just want to hold you. Can’t you even fulfill this wish of mine?”

He blinked as he spoke.
