Drenched in Love novel Chapter 111

Sophia was extremely thirsty and by grasping Stephen’s hand, she drunk up the whole glass of water. Thirsty still, “Some more.” she said.

Stephen stood up again to bring another glass of water for her. He went back, putting his arm around her waist, and brought the water close to her mouth. Until then, Sophia saw clearly who the man that had brought her the water.

Sophia was stiffly shocked, and unconsciously tried to escape from Stephen’s arms, and said, “Terribly sorry, Mr. Berry. I don’t know it was you. I ……” If she would have known that it was Stephen near her bed, she would rather die than have him brought the water.

Stephen frowned, and clutched her body back, making her tightly in his arms. He passed the water with another hand to her mouth and said, “Aren’t you thirsty? Drink it! How dry your lips are!”

Having been forced to drink up a glass of water, Sophia totally waked up. She thought about the things that had happened yesterday, and it was Stephen who brought her back in the rain. She thought in her mind, “Thank you, Mr. Berry.”

Stephen put the glass on the table and thought, “What a stupid woman! Didn’t she know that she could call someone for help when the car was broken?” If he had not come, her brain would have already been burnt to a fool now by sitting in the car for an entire night with a fever.

No sooner had he thought about it than he asked her, and he regretted asking.

Sophia shuddered, looking down and explained, “Mr. Berry, I called you several times, but you did not answer.” She stopped for a while and then continued, “My phone was not in credit, so I used the landline in the nearby shop.”

It then occurred to Stephen that the unknown phone call was from her. At that time, he was in a hurry to seek for Sophia, and just ignored the unimportant call he thought. How could she……

Stephen’s heart trembled and his eyes turned to be milder and adoring when looking at Sophia.

Sophia’s heart was shuddered by his tender eyes, and could not help but think, “Should he be in love with me?”

Having drunken up another glass of water and eaten half bowl of egg & pork congee, Sophia slept again. Stephen approved to give her a day-off today. Her body was sore and she did not guess anymore about Stephen’s idea on her. Soon she was asleep.

By noontime, Sophia had a fever again.

Having stayed in prison for five years, she was much weaker than before. Out of prison, she was upset for several times and even committed suicide once. Due to the fragile body, it was much difficult to recover from a serious illness.

It was raining outside, and Stephen just called Doctor Joe to come back again.

Doctor Joe did not want to go back again. He said in the telephone, “Since she has fever again, you can just give her some anti-fever medicine. She will be better after taking the medicine. You’d better not to give her fever-reducing injection, because it was harmful for her body if taken too much.”

Stephen ignored his words and said directly, “I will give you half an hour to be here! Or I will go and bring you here myself!”

Doctor Joe was coerced to come. Faced with Stephen, he gave the anti-fever medicine to him. “Take it for her, and I will be here. Hope this is what you want.” The doctor said.

Stephen glanced at her and then put the medicine into Sophia’s mouth.

The medicine could not be swallowed as Sophia was badly ill. Even though Stephen opened her mouth by force, all the fed medicine was out of her mouth.
