Taming My Arrogant Husband novel Chapter 50

I woke up the following morning with something heavy on my waist. I smiled as I remembered my dream last night. 

But that smile immediately turned into a frown when I realized that I'm awake now and I still feel his arm around me. 

"Shh... don't move." I heard a faint voice next to me. 

-'Did I hear Daniel's voice?'- I slowly opened my eyes only to be surprised when I saw Daniel lying beside me with one of his arms wrapped around me and not Teddy bear's arm. 

"What the hell, Daniel!"

I screamed, jolting in bed and glared at his sleeping figure. 

"Hmm.."

But he didn't budge and just formed his body like a fetus. And when I removed his hand, that's when I noticed that his skin was hot. I frowned and touched his forehead only to find that his temperature was not normal. 

"Forgodsake, you're so hot!" I said shocked and got up immediately from bed. 

His eyes were still closed but I didn't miss when his lips curled up into a smirk. 

"I know sweetheart, I know."

I gritted my teeth when I realized what I said that made him smile. 

"Argh! You still can be a jerk even when you're sick? Unbelievable!"

"That's not what you said last night, sweetheart."

"What do you mean---ahh!"

I didn't finish my question when he grabbed my hand and pulled me back to his side. His arm instantly wrapped around my waist. 

"Daniel, what are you doing?" I asked struggling but he's too strong that I couldn't move even my hands. 

"Just stay here for a while." and he pulled me closer to his chest. 

"But you're hot!"

He chuckled. "I told you I already know that, sweetheart, but anyway thank you for telling me."

"Forgodsake, that's not what I mean! You're sick and you need to take medicine!"

"No, I don't need any medicine, I just need you here beside me so don't move and stay here."

"But Daniel..."

"Hmm..." He groaned before I felt his body trembling as if he were cold. 

-'Oh, my God!'- shock and Panic hit me when I heard him groan again. And because of that, I didn't think twice to put my arm around his waist and hugged him closer to me. 

"Stay here, please."

I bite my lower lip as I felt his warm breath fanned across my neck. 

"You need to take medicine, Daniel." I tried to get up (tried) but it's useless as he didn't let me move bit. 

I sighed because I can't do anything but wait for him until he falls asleep again. Last night's events are still not clear to me. The last thing I remember was that we were arguing in his car, but after that I couldn't remember anything. Nor can I even remember how I got here and how it happened that he was with me when I woke up? 

He was already asleep when I decided to get up and pulled the blanket up to his neck. He needs to eat and take medicine so I left him and rushed towards the kitchen. 

I found Nanay Emily and Tatay Berto in the counter and they gave me a warm smile when they saw me. 

"Good morning, Anak." They said in unison. 

"Good morning." I smiled awkwardly. 

"How's your sleep, Anak? Have you and your husband did---" Tatay Berto didn't have the chance to finish what he was about to say when Nanay Emily nudged his side. 

I was confused but I decided to ignore their strange exchange of glances with one another. 

"We're preparing for lunch, what do you want to---"

"Lunch?" My eyes widened in surprise. "What time is it?"

They both checked their wristwatch and replied in unison. 

"11:30 in the morning, why?"

"11:30? That means I overslept this morning?"

"It's okay, Anak, there's nothing wrong with that. We know you're tired from the happenings last night." Tatay Berto said, then grinned widely at me. 

I don't understand what they were talking about. "Ahm... Nanay, do we have ingredients for chicken soup? I need to cook for---"

"Chicken soup? Why do you need to cook a chicken soup?" They cut me as they asked at the same time.
