Chapter 1090
Now that he was sleeping, he looked like a man who had lost his edge. He was no longer overwhelming, but rather,
he looked like a beautiful angel one could not help approaching.
However, the frown on his brows made him look somewhat
vulnerable.
‘Vulnerable?’
Grace laughed and was about to pull herself out of his arms. when his hand seemed to grab her unconsciously.
Then… he caught four fingers of her right hand.
Grace was startled and tried to pull her fingers out of his hand, but instead, she made him hold on tighter! It was as

She tried several more times, but she could not withdraw her
hand from his. In the end, she wondered if he was actually
asleep or not.
However, his eyes never opened, nor did he do anything else.
Therefore, she could only comfort herself that they had slept
together in one bed before.
After a moment’s hesitation, Grace pulled the covers over

A burning sensation filled her palms.
‘It’s so hot!’
Grace was surprised. ‘He’s… having a fever and the temperature doesn’t seem low!’
However, she did not have a thermometer at hand, let alone fever-reducing medicine!
“Jason!” She called to him, trying to wake him up. “Are… Are you conscious? Wake up!”
His eyelashes fluttered a little. After calling him a few times, he
finally opened his eyes slowly and looked at her face.
She said, “You’re having a fever! Is there any fever-reducing medicine in this house? Or you can contact the outside
world right now and have someone take you to the hospital.”
He sat up slowly and asked as he looked at her, “Why won’t you leave while you can?”
