Wilfred coughed lightly and replied, "There's nothing else to do while staying in the room."

His explanation only made things worse.

Karina's brows shot up immediately. "What do you mean by nothing else to do?"

Her expression turned serious, and her tone carried an unusual firmness. "It doesn't matter. When you're sick, you need to rest properly. Your book is confiscated. Go lie down."

It was the first time someone had ordered Wilfred around like this, and he found it oddly amusing.

Of course, if it had been anyone else, he wouldn't have listened. Only Karina could manage to sway him.

Karina hesitated briefly. "Well, the association sent me an email. I just saw it. They're inviting me to visit when I have time."

As soon as she finished, she watched Wilfred's reaction nervously. Knowing his antagonism toward the association, she expected him to disapprove. She was already brainstorming ways to appease him if he became upset. "What do they want you to do?" Wilfred's brows furrowed as his expression darkened. He was clearly displeased.
