Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 7: I Want To Move Out 

Scarlett's POV:

 I knew that I was dreaming.I was at a wedding, and I was the bride.I was standing right before my groom, but I could not make out his face.

"Achoo!" My own sneeze woke me up.

I found myself lying in bed.I did not know how I got upstairs.

The last thing I remembered was that I was with Charles downstairs.

After that, nothing.

Why was I feeling so dizzy? I also felt like I was on fire.

I tossed the quilt away and tried to get up.

"Don't move," a stern voice commanded from the door.

I turned my head and saw Charles standing there.

He was wearing an apron.

I had never seen him like that, so I could not help chuckling.

"You caught a cold.Are you hungry? Breakfast will be ready soon."

After saying that, he turned around and went downstairs again.I struggled to get on my feet and went to the bathroom.

After washing up, I felt like my head was going to explode and my knees were going to give out.I dragged myself back to bed.

Charles came back before I could curl up under the covers.

He brought me a bowl of piping hot porridge with beef and shrimp.

The porridge smelled heavenly, but all I wanted was to sleep.

"I have no appetite.I don't want to eat."

"No, you have to.Come on, get up."

As he spoke, Charles grabbed a pillow and fluffed it on the headboard for me to lean on.

As I tried to prop myself up, my throat itched like hell, and I started coughing violently.

He wiped my mouth with some tissues.

"Here.Eat," he said and scooped up some porridge to feed me.

I stared at him in mixed confusion and disbelief.

He had never treated me so gently before.

What happened? Did he take the wrong medicine last night, so he was not his usual self today? I had to stop and check if I was still dreaming.

After deciding that I was already wide awake, I just opened my mouth and let my husband feed me.

Suddenly, my phone rang.It was Christine calling.

"Hi, Grandma."

"Oh, good, you're up.Hello, dear.I'm calling to invite you and Charles over for dinner tonight.I'll cook for you."

"Grandma, I..."

Before I could explain, I started coughing again.

"Scarlett? What's wrong?"
