Sonia blinked in a daze.

She remembered she had deliberately stayed 2 feet away from Toby when she went to bed last night.

Could it be that he woke up in the middle of the night and leaned over?

At that thought, Sonia quickly scratched that idea out of her head because Toby had slept earlier than her. Besides that, his posture had not changed since last night, so she reckoned Toby had not woken up in the middle of the night.

Since Toby had not woken up, there was only one answer as to why they were leaning so close to each other—she had been restless and rolled over to Toby!

At once, Sonia was flushed with awkwardness at this thought as she had not expected herself to be this restless while sleeping.

Nonetheless, she quickly composed herself.

No one saw me rolling over anyway. Toby won’t know about it as long as I don’t bring it up!

With that, Sonia stretched before lifting the blanket and walking to the bonfire.

The fire had gone out as all the firewood had been burnt. However, the remains were still hot, so Sonia reckoned the fire had just gone out not too long ago.

After that, Sonia checked on the clothes hanging beside the fire and realized that they had become dry, so she took them down for changing later.

“I wonder what time it is now,” Sonia murmured while glancing toward the sunlight at the cave entrance.

The next second, she recalled Toby had a watch, so she quickly put down the clothes, walked over to Toby and squatted down to check the time. However, before she could reach out to his hand, she realized Toby was looking unwell.

Why is his face so red? His breathing is rapid and heavy too. These are obviously signs of a fever!

Panic-stricken, Sonia quickly reached out her hand to feel Toby’s forehead. “He’s burning up!”
