Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

Chapter 152 Fever

Tonight was probably the first night on which Elias had a very peaceful sleep. He had a long, long dream, in which he traveled back to four years ago. Amanda told him she was pregnant and produced the pregnancy test strip showing a positive result. This time, he believed her without a doubt and accompanied her to the hospital for a pregnancy checkup. Just when he dreamed of accompanying her to undergo a color Doppler ultrasound scan, he suddenly awoke from his dream.

In a sleepy haze, he felt a small hand touching his face all over. After knitting his brows for a moment, he slowly opened his eyes to see Aiden’s little face. The boy was staring at him like a curious baby while continuing to poke him with his little hand.

Aiden was apparently startled to see the man open his eyes. “Mommy! Uncle Elias is awake!”

Elias then saw Amanda come over with a rather serious expression. “You’re up at last? You had a fever in the middle of last night. We were scared to death and wanted to send you to the hospital, but we couldn’t wake you up no matter what, so we had no choice but to try to cool your body temperature.”

Only then did Elias notice that he had an iced towel on his forehead. So, this little brat is poking my face to see if my fever has gone down? He wanted to say something, only to find that his throat was dry and sore, making it hard for him to speak.

“You want to drink some water?” Amanda turned to look at the boy. “Baby, go pour a glass of water for Uncle Elias, okay? He’s ill right now, so he can’t get up on his own.”

“Okay!” Aiden climbed out of bed and ran out of the bedroom as fast as his little legs could carry him.

Amanda came over and removed the iced towel from his forehead. After touching his forehead for a moment, she said, “Good thing that your fever has finally gone down a little. Now get up and take the fever medicine.” As she spoke, she struggled to help him to a sitting position with his back against the headboard.

Seeing how she took care of himself, Elias felt that it touched a soft spot in his heart. Just then, Aiden entered the bedroom holding a glass of water. He said in a childlike voice, “Mommy, here’s the water.”

Amanda took the glass of water without forgetting to praise him. “Thank you so much, Baby. What a good boy.”

Elias couldn’t help but smile at how mature his son was. Before going to sleep last night, he had felt happy to see his wife and son sleeping before his eyes, but the scene right now made him even happier-so happy that he was willing to do whatever it took to freeze this moment in time.

Amanda handed the water and medicine to him. “Here, take the fever medicine. If it doesn’t reduce your fever, you’ll have no choice but to go to the hospital.”
