Perfect CEO

Chapter 447

Kevin was sleeping soundly after working the night shift. He was annoyed by the ringing of his phone.

“Why did you call me? I was sleeping.”

His flaring temper delighted Patrick, who smiled in schadenfreude.

“Kev, since when do you need sleep? Have you forgotten how you've spoiled my plans last night?”

After exacting his revenge, the unsatisfied Patrick planned to do more of the same next time.

Kevin reined in his temper when he realized it was Patrick.

“Pat, what is it? I'm really tired.”

Kevin spoke sluggishly. It was clear that he barely had any energy left.

“I have a fever, you jinx!”

Kevin immediately gave Patrick his full attention. “A fever? Where else do you feel uncomfortable? Does your head hurt?”

It would be terrible if the fever continued. That would mean his body is suffering from inflammation.

“My head doesn't hurt. It's probably not related to the bullet in my brain. Anyway, I have a question. If I don't remove the bullet, will it lower my body's immunity?”


I never caught a cold when I bathed in cold water in winter, so how did I end up with one in this tropical weather?

Kevin furrowed his brows. “How do you know that it's not related to the bullet?”

“Kev, the cold shower I took last night is the cause of my fever. Also, I don't have a headache. All I feel are minor symptoms of the flu.”

Only then did Kevin heave a sigh of relief.


“Pat, it's not good to have a foreign object lodged in your head for the long term. On top of that, its location is an extremely precarious one. You have to watch yourself constantly and avoid getting sick. I'll arrange for the surgery as soon as possible.”

Meanwhile, when Gwendolyn returned with the medicine, she saw Linette standing outside her room the moment she exited the elevator.

Linette was all dolled up in casual clothing and a pair of flats so that she wouldn't get tired so quickly from shopping.

“Gwen, you went out?”

Gwendolyn gave her an apologetic look.

“Linette, a friend came to see me, and he has fallen sick. I won't be able to go shopping with you. You'll have to go by yourself.”

Linette looked disappointed. “Your friend? In Willowbank?”

Didn't she say that this was her first time in Willowbank? So why does she have friends here? Linette was unable to make the link.

The thought of Patrick brought a smile to Gwendolyn's face.

“He's on a business trip too. We ran into each other by coincidence.”

When Linette attempted to follow Gwendolyn into her room, the latter stopped her at the door.

“You should go on ahead. My friend isn't able to see any guests now.”

The main issue was Patrick's fame. If Linette were to see him, she would definitely tell Tiffany.

Gwendolyn didn't want anyone else to know.

Linette rolled her eyes. “Gwen, is your boyfriend here?”
