Chapter 1218 Igniting Luke's Love for Her

Bianca slightly narrowed her eyes. 'Just a slight fever? I guess the pill isn't fully in effect yet.'

She shook her head and replied to the doctor, "I don’t know." "It's not too serious yet, so you don't have to take any

medicine. Sleep with a blanket tonight and see if you can sweat the fever out. I'll prescribe some medicine just in

case, so you can take it if you're not feeling any better, alright?" Dr. Cairn said to her. He was not too worried

because her temperature was not too high.

Bianca frowned and nodded. She was not too bothered because she knew that the pill was causing the fever.

Her condition was going to deteriorate anyway, and even if she did not take any medicine, she would recover in a

month anyway. She nodded just to keep the doctor off her back.

It was better than giving the doctor the impression that she did not listen to him.

Dr. Cairn nodded and told the butler, "Madam is sick often, and maybe the medication doesn't have much effect on

her. Can you get her two more blankets? I'll still prescribe some medication." "Yes, thank you," the butler said. He

did not want to go through Bianca's personal belongings, so he got a female caretaker to help him.

Bianca felt the caretaker cover her with two blankets. Then, she turned off the air conditioning.

She was already feeling uncomfortable with the warm weather. Now, she felt as though ants were crawling on her

skin and biting her nerves.

She wished that she could throw the blankets off her, but she could not.

She was supposed to be sick, and she could only bear it.

Remembering that the escort was still waiting for him at the motel, Dr. Cairn hastily prescribed the medication and

placed it on the bedside cabinet. "If Madam's condition doesn't get any better, she can take the medicine, and she

should be fine after that." "Yes, thank you," Bianca said weakly. She wished that she could drive everyone out of the

room; their mere presence was torture to her.

"Please send Dr. Cairn off, Mr. Griffin," she said.

The doctor was delighted to hear that. Sometimes, he would have to stay back and talk to Luke about Bianca's

condition, just so that he could get on Luke's good side.

He was quite happy that Luke was not around, and he did not have to stay back.

"Yes." The butler nodded and led the way.

Dr. Cairn left the bedroom after him.

Bianca's forehead was wet with sweat, and she did not know if it was because of the pill or the two blankets. She

looked at the caretaker who was waiting beside her and said, "I'd like to rest. You can leave for now." "Yes, Madam."

The caretaker did not want to leave a sick person in the room alone, but she had to follow her employer's orders.

After the caretaker left the room and closed the door behind her, Bianca kicked the blankets away.

She felt a little better without the blankets suffocating her. However, in a few minutes, she felt that her body had

turned from warm to cold.

"What kind of pill was that?" Bianca mumbled through gritted teeth. The alternating sensations of hot and cold were

double the torture.

She could only cover herself with the blankets again and switched on the heating.

Soon, she could hear the caretaker's voice from outside. "Good evening, Sir."

Luke had returned.

Bianca tucked herself into the blanket so that not an inch of her skin was exposed.

Luke opened the bedroom door and frowned when he saw the person on the bed.

He could see the sweat dripping down from Bianca's forehead along her hairline. Turning around, he asked the

caretaker, "How are you going to take care of Madam if you're standing outside?"

The caretaker shuddered. Luke rarely questioned the caretakers at home about their jobs, but whenever he did, he

was quite harsh.

"Madam told me to,” she explained.

Luke's expression darkened a little as he said, "Madam is sick, so you should stay by her side and take care of her.

Go and get a towel to wipe off Madam's sweat." "Yes." The caretaker bowed slightly and went into the bedroom.

Seeing Bianca's forehead glistening with sweat, she quickly went into the bathroom and took the towel.

Bianca's heart warmed when she heard that Luke cared for her. If it took a bout of illness to gain his attention,

swallowing the pill was the right choice.

In the next month, she hoped to ignite Luke's love for her.

"Don't blame her, Luke. I was the one who told her to go out of the room." Bianca would not have spoken up for the

servants at home if not that she had to pretend that she was sympathetic and kind like the previous Bianca.

Luke could hear that she was struggling to speak. "Don't speak. You should rest."

Bianca smiled and closed her eyes. She was relieved that he was back home.

She was not going to let Luke be together with Luca.

No matter what stage of a relationship they were in now, Bianca was not going to let them progress any further!

The caretaker came out of the bathroom with a basin of warm water and a hand towel. She set the basin down

next to the bed and, when she was wringing the towel to wipe Bianca's face, Luke said, "Let me do it.”

The caretaker handed the towel to him.

Luke took it and wrung it again. "Has Dr. Cairn left?" "Yes. Dr. Cairn said that it's only a mild fever, so she'll be fine

after sweating it out. He gave some medicine in case Madam's condition doesn't get any better." The caretaker

repeated what Dr. Cairn said earlier.

Luke did not say anything and wiped the sweat from Bianca's forehead.

She grunted slightly when she felt the cool towel on her skin.

She did not know if the sensation was comfortable. After all, she was alternating between feeling hot and cold. The

cool sensation of the towel was quite jarring.

Seeing that Bianca was still uncomfortable, Luke used the thermometer and took her temperature again. It was

99.5 degrees, and Luke could tell that it was not a high fever. Sometimes Tommy would also be down with a mild

fever, but his symptoms were totally different from what Bianca was exhibiting.

Luke put the thermometer away. "What was her temperature earlier?" "99.5 degrees," the caretaker answered.

Luke looked at Bianca. Her forehead was once again wet with sweat. It seemed a lot more serious than a mild

fever.

"Stay with her tonight and take her temperature every half an hour. Inform me if her temperature goes up." Luke

took the towel and wiped Bianca's forehead again.

"Yes," the caretaker replied, though she was quite reluctant.

She would not be able to sleep that night...

Bianca was not very kind to her anyway. The caretaker could not be bothered to do that for her if not that she was

at risk of losing her job.

Never mind, that's the fate of a wage earner...’ the caretaker thought.
