"You're not allowed to leave."
Skylar Holland pressed his body against hers tightly. He was having a fever and the heat emanating from his body was alarming. It escaped and spread through his clothes, reaching Coralie Chariott with fervent ardour.
He lowered his head, and his thin lips were exhaling scorching air, which he transferred to Coralie with his mouth.
The steaming air filled her entire mouth quickly, expressing his fervent and distinct desire for her.
Coralie was rather shocked by his kiss. She found an opportunity to turn away and she said, "I won't go. You are still sick. I won't go anywhere until you feel better. Don't worry."
This was her actual plan. She didn't know why she felt such pain when she saw that Skylar had fainted in the kitchen. Even though he treated her poorly before this, she couldn't just leave him alone.
Thinking about this, she felt that she was really disparaging herself.
"Okay."
Although Skylar was holding her hands, he had loosened his grip. However, he still gave her a kiss.
His kiss was gentler, and he started by her ear. It seemed that he intended to explore her with his kisses, moving downward. He stretched out his hand and attempted to hold her waist, so that he could pull her closer to him
His movements had obviously become gentler, and he was not as aggressive as before. However, this caused Coralie to become even more frightened, and her body was trembling slightly.
She begged for mercy. "You're sick, can you stop..."
He treated her gently, but it seemed like he was going to take the next step.
"Oh, do you care about me?"
He stopped and looked down at her.
Coralie raised her head. She gazed at his eyelashes, and his dark eyes. He seemed to be expecting something.
Today, Skylar had suppressed his anger, and Coralie was moved by this. She spoke softly, "Yes, I care about you. Can you go upstairs to rest?"
He had a fever of 39 degrees. In Coralie's view, he shouldn't have gotten out of bed at all.
"Okay, I'll listen to you,"
Skylar said, after Coralie had expressed that she wouldn't leave and that she cared about him.
Skylar's attitude seemed to be different. He went up the stairs, but he still held Coralie's hand and refused to let her go.
"Well, I want to make some porridge. Can you go up first? I'll be right there,"
Coralie said, asking for his consent.
In fact, she sensed that Skylar was weak and sickly. When he pressed himself against her just now, he didn't seem to have any strength.
"I'll wait for you here."
Skylar released Coralie's hand and sat down in front of the dining table. He fixed his gaze on Coralie, watching her every move.
"Okay, I'll be done soon."
She could make porridge in a short time. She prepared the ingredients, cut them up, and put them into the pot.
"It'll be ready soon. I'll go up with you first. Then I'll come down and bring it up when it's done,"
Coralie said.
In fact, she was really good at taking care of people. It was all thanks to her marriage of several years. At that time, Howard Schultz had acted like a child. He didn't seem to have any hobbies. When he got off work, he only lazed around the house.
Whenever he was sick, he would order her around to serve him.
At that time, Coralie had believed that their relationship was based on love. She did everything as Howard instructed. She wanted to be a good wife, and she tried her best to please him.
"I will wait here,"
Skylar said.
"It's going to take about half an hour."
"I'm fine with that."
Although he was sick, he was still stubborn. He sat there and he didn't intend to move at all.
Coralie walked over to Skylar's side, touched his forehead and said, "I don't know if you have any cooling patches for fever at home. Anyway, I bought some from the supermarket just now."
She took the plastic bag at the door and found a box of cooling patches in it. Then, she opened one of the patches and placed it on Skylar's forehead.
