The Substitute Bride: Making Memories Of Us (Lois Stone)

Chapter 8: Your Beautiful Face Is Your Asset 

Ayla's high fever never dropped for once, which made Maria worried.

Although Mr.Clark didn't give her any order, she had no choice but to call the doctor.

"She needs to have an injection to bring down her fever.Otherwise, she might catch pneumonia," the doctor said while preparing the injection.

"Is Mrs.Clark's fever too bad?"

Maria was anxious because she knew Mr.Clark was short-tempered.

If anything happened to his newly wedded wife, he might get furious.

 "Well, it's somewhat serious.She is too weak right now.She needs to have a good rest."

The doctor gave Ayla the injection then wrote the prescription.

Although, her temperature dropped after taking the injection, she was still unconscious.

When Brian came back, it was almost dawn.

As he entered the hall, he found no one there.

"Maria!" he called out.

"Sir, you are back,"

Maria answered from his room.

Brian grumbled and went upstairs just to find out Ayla was still unconscious.

He quickly ordered, "Send her downstairs! And clean up my room!"

He hated when others touched his belongings.

 Maria and Ruben took Ayla to the first floor in her room.

Next day when finally she got her senses back, it was almost noon.

She eyed the familiar room and slowly recalled what happened last night.

But how did she return to her room? She clutched her aching head.

She felt extremely weak.
