Arvin and Angela already had two children, and Arvin didn't agree to get a divorce. Also, they would sometimes hug and kiss. If she still insisted on keeping him at arm's length... What was the point of doing so?
Angela turned and looked at Arvin and only to see that he had closed his eyes. A look of hurt grazed his face.
Angela bit her lip tightly and wondered what to do.
What should she do?
She knew that Arvin was trying to get her attention, but she still did what Arvin had wanted, as if she fell for his pitiful look. She turned and pressed Arvin under her body.
Arvin secretly smiled. Angela did have a tender heart. He pretended to refuse, "Get off."
Being rejected, Angela really wanted to get off, but... She still circled her fingers around Arvin's collar and said, "You are having a fever."
"I know. I'll go to the hospital to get an IV bag. If it doesn't work, I'll get a surgery. If that still doesn't work, I'll die, " said Arvin. Arvin was being dramatic.
My goodness! Angela was speechless. A small fever had been exaggerated into a matter of life and death.
Through his thin pajamas, she could feel his extremely high body temperature.
Angela clenched her teeth and kissed his closed lips.
Because of her kiss, Arvin almost couldn't contain his joy.
Angela had not taken the initiative to kiss him for two whole years.
Now, at this moment, he finally had it.
If he had known that being sick would get Angela into bed, he wouldn't have mind getting sick hundreds of times.
Soon, the couple warmed up. Angela had taken the initiative, but somehow Arvin took the lead and held her waist tightly, locking Angela tightly within his grip.
Just when they were about to take things a step further, someone knocked on the door. "Arvin, are you asleep? I'm coming in."
It was Teresa, who wanted to check on Arvin.
Angela suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Arvin who was on top of her body. Then, she came back to her senses.
Oh my god! What was she doing? Why was she allowing herself to be fooled by Arvin? Was she captivated by his charms?
But, Arvin seemed to have read her mind and kept her hands above the head, clutching them snugly. He answered Teresa, "Mother, Angela is taking care of me. You don't need to come in."
Teresa had sensed something strange in his tone, but she didn't think of it that way and believed that it was only because of his sickness. "Okay. Angela, if you need anything, just let me know. I'll be downstairs, " said Teresa.
Angela's mouth was covered by Arvin, so she could only muffle a sound.
Hopefully, Teresa could hear her from the outside.
Not long after Teresa had gone, a soft voice came from the door, "Dad, are you sick? I am worried about you." It was Sherman. He twisted the door knob as he spoke.
Teresa was watching Sherwood by the stairs, not paying attention to Sherman. When she noticed Sherman, he had already opened the door.
She didn't know what was going on inside the room, so she said, "Sherman my dear, come back here. Your dad is sick. Don't go in."
Just when she finished speaking, a loud cry burst from the room.
Teresa had the housemaid watch Sherwood and hurried to the bedroom. "What's going on? What's going on? Sherman?"
Teresa rushed to the bedroom in a second. Even though she was a grandmother, she exercised regularly.
