Sick people were always in their foulest mood. I would not have given Michael such an attitude if I were not ill.

“You caught a cold? This is so out of the blue.”

He reached out his palm and touched my forehead. A frown stitched on his forehead when he felt my temperature.

 

“Anyone can catch a cold anytime. Don’t you know that?”

I glared at him unhappily, recalling what happened earlier on.

 

I did not breathe a word to him because I knew he would turn the whole company upside down in search of the culprit, further inciting everyone against me.

“You get sick too easily. Some exercise will do you good,” he said without suspecting anything.

“Well, it’s not like I have time for that. Work is tiring enough already.”

I rolled my eyes and muttered my complaints. It was true that work was taxing. I felt tired every day after work. Exercising would be the last thing I wanted to do.

“You can still exercise at night if you don’t have time in the day. Having sex is good training too.”

A naughty smile curved on his lips as he eyed me.

Anger shot up in my heart when I finally understood what he meant.

I could not believe he could still crack a joke like this after knowing I was sick.

“You can exercise on your own if you like. I don’t have the energy for that.”
