Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 783

Emelie reached up to touch her forehead, but she couldn't feel anything out of the ordinary.

Jodie, who had removed her gloves, reached out to touch Emelie's forehead. After a brief moment, she nodded. "Ma'am, you have a fever."

No wonder she had been feeling unwell since the plane ride. She exhaled deeply, feeling as though misfortune had piled up all at once.

Jodie said hurriedly, "I'll call the doctor right away."

William had already picked Emelie up in his arms. "I have a doctor with me. There's no need to look for another."

Emelie felt increasingly uncomfortable and struggled in his embrace. "William, put me down! I just have a slight fever; I'm not crippled!"

William replied, "If you were in good health, you wouldn't have broken your phone. Where are you staying?"

He glanced over at Jodie, who instinctively responded, "Stellar Hotel."

With Emelie in his arms, William strode out of the airport and into the car that was waiting for Emelie.

Although the car and its arrangements were all meant for Emelie, William took charge and instructed, "To the hotel."

The driver hesitated briefly before turning on the engine.

Emelie tried to resist, but as soon as she noticed her fever, her discomfort became overwhelming. Her head felt as though it were inflating like a balloon, and the pressure was unbearable. This drained her of the strength to fight against William.

William noticed her closed eyes and furrowed brow and knew that she was suffering. He felt a pang of sympathy.

In a gentle voice, he said, "Just hang in there, angel. We'll be at the hotel soon."

Emelie turned her head away.

Jodie, unable to watch Emelie being carried in this manner, reached out to take her back.

Without even looking at Jodie, William gently stroked Emelie's hair and said, "If you believe that her health is less important than obeying your ruthless master who kills the innocent, then come and take her."

Jodie hesitated for a few moments before letting Emelie's hand go.

When they arrived at the hotel, William carried Emelie to her room.
