Seeing that Skylar hadn’t taken off her coat, the germophobic Tobias couldn’t help but started, “I’ll help

you take off your coat. It’s just too dirty coming back from the hospital in it. It must be full of bacteria by

now.”

Skylar didn’t want to move at all. She lay in the bed like a dried and worn-out sponge with her hand

tugging tightly at the quilt as she shook her head.

With much difficulty, Tobias suppressed his impulse to drag Skylar up to change her clothes. Then, he

turned around to open the wardrobe instead but found it empty within.

He suddenly remembered that when Skylar moved out, she packed everything and left nothing behind.

She had so few clothes that she couldn’t bear to leave any of them here and once she left, she had no

plan of returning.

“Don’t sleep just yet. I’ll go prepare the medicine. Take them before you sleep.” Tobias took the

medication out and read the instructions carefully.

Skylar shook her head and answered, “I don’t want to take them. It’s awful, Meredith.”

As she was half-awake, she mistook the person who was taking care of her when she was sick as

Meredith.

Tobias paused briefly in his tracks and then left to get some warm water for her to be taken together

with the medicine.

When he returned to the room. Skylar was already curled up in the quilt, with only her puny yet pale

face showing underneath. Nevertheless, she was still strikingly beautiful.

“Be a good girl and take the medicine.” He put the glass on the bedside.

Then, he lifted Skylar’s shoulder up effortlessly and let her lean in his arms. He could feel her skin still

burning.

Taking the glass and placing it near Skylar’s lips, he said, “After you take this medicine, I need to go to

bed as well. I still have some business to attend to before noon.”

Again, his deep and soft voice coaxing her gently was exceedingly pleasing to the ears. Tobias, who

hadn’t slept for over three nights was a little exhausted as well.

He noticed that sometimes, he could get some good and peaceful nights of sleep around Skylar. There

were certain days when he even doubted if Skylar had drugged him.

Skylar was now immune to Tobias’ rare tenderness, and she shook her head. “It’s too bitter and hard to

swallow. I’ll take it later.”

It suddenly dawned on Tobias. What am I doing here? Coaxing a child? He despised troublesome

women. But here he was, putting up with Skylar so patiently.

Frowning as he looked at Skylar’s sickly pale face, which was the result of her fever and yet, she was

still as spoiled as a child, he ordered, “Take it.”

Skylar ignored him totally.

Tobias took the glass and take in a mouthful. Then, his other hand pinched on her jaw and made her

take the medicine together with the warm water.

Skylar, who was almost asleep, opened her eyes instantly as her mouth was filled with the taste of the

medicine. She looked like she was going to throw up and before she knew it, Tobias sealed her lips

with his.

When their lips parted, Skylar started retching.

It was definitely the most bitter kiss she had ever had.

Yet, her face was lifted by Tobias and he commanded, “Swallow it. How can you recover if you don’t

take the medicine?”

With a long face, Skylar swallowed the medicine with some difficulty.

Looking at Skylar’s pitiable post-medication face, he kissed her lips and said softly, “Sleep for a while

and you’ll be okay. I’ll be accompanying you here.”

There was still a bitter taste in Tobias’ mouth. Their kiss just then was so deep that he could feel the

wild longing coming from his heated crotch.

Taking in a long breath, the yearning in his eyes deepened and he was struggling forcibly to repress his

desire.

It was the next day’s afternoon when Skylar woke up. Her clothes were soaked in sweat and her

temperature had returned to normal. She had been perspiring profusely.

Her hair was squishily sticking on her face and there were a few strands of them on her lips.

She patted softly on her head which was still aching and got off the bed. Her steps were still giddy as

though she was stepping on cotton and her heels felt weak.

Coming down from the second floor, she saw Tobias talking to the phone with a stern face in the living

room, with one hand on his hip.

The buttons on his shirt were loosely fastened and his sleeves were crumpled up to his elbow. The

perfect and sleek curves of his muscular arms outlined the vigor of men.

Skylar couldn’t help taking a few more glances at him. He’s clearly aging but still so incredibly

sexy. Men in their thirties never failed to charm women.
