Chapter 898

When Nicole returned home, she discovered a silhouette lying on the sofa. Taking a closer look, she realized it was

Zachary.

As soon as she got closer, Zachary opened his eyes on the sofa. Upon seeing that it was Nicole, he got up with a

slight smile on his face and looked at her, saying, "You're back."

She nodded somewhat tiredly and hummed in reply. Glancing down at him, she noticed that an abnormal red flush

had crept up on his face. With a slight frown, she reached out and touched his forehead, only to find it was hot to

the touch.

"Did you catch a fever?" Nicole asked.

Zachary pulled her hand away, his throat a little hoarse as he denied, "It's nothing, just a minor headache. Probably

because I haven't slept well in the past few days."

Nicole got up and went upstairs. A short while later, she came back down with a small first aid kit in hand. Deftly

retrieving the contents from the first aid kit, she then took his temperature. Unsurprisingly, he was a little over 100

degrees, showing that he really caught a fever. No wonder he was lying on the sofa. He's ill.

"You caught a fever. It's on the higher side too. You should take some medicine."

She took the pills and stuffed them into his mouth, then poured a glass of water from the table and shoved it into

his hand in one go. A faint smile broke out on his face as he watched Nicole's briskness before he took the glass of

water and downed it in one gulp.

"Get some sleep after taking your medicine, and the fever should subside," she said quickly.

Zachary barely had any energy left in him now. Half leaning on the sofa, he looked at the busy woman in front of

him and asked with a hoarse voice, "How did your meeting with the Wrenn Family go today?"

Nicole, who was tidying up, stiffened slightly. Only after a while did she turn her head and say, "They said they

wanted to hold a press conference to acknowledge me."

Zachary let out a light laugh, his palm falling on the sofa as he said softly, "Then, you'll be the lady of the Wrenn

Family from now on. Your status has risen. I suppose I have to treat you with greater respect in the future."

"I didn't agree," she replied lowly.

As a layer of doubt flashed past his eyes, Zachary slightly raised his gaze to look at her, wrinkling his brow in

question. "Why, did someone from the Wrenn Family pick on you?"

"No, it's just that everything happened so suddenly that I haven't come to terms with it yet. I told them not to make

it public for the time being and to develop our relationship for now."

Her voice was a little muffled, sounding somewhat sullen.

Zachary nodded, going along with her. "You have a point. You're an outstanding person, Nicole, even without relying

on the Wrenn Family."

Nicole reached out and tugged on him, making him lie flat on the sofa, and said, "Okay, enough talking from you.

Have a good sleep and rest well. This sofa is big enough for you anyway."

He lay down obediently, the corner of his mouth curling up into a smile as he indulged in the feeling of being cared

for. His parents had been divorced since he was a child, and both of them were headstrong people who disliked

heeding others' advice, so he grew up in an environment that required him to learn to bear everything on his own.

"Thank you, Nicole," he said in a hoarse voice, his bright eyes brimming with tenderness.

"Don't mention it. It's what I should do." Upon saying that, she took a blanket from the side and covered his body

with it. Then, as if recalling something, she looked at him and continued, "By the way, the Wrenns are coming to

pick Hayden and me up tomorrow. I'm going to stay with the Gould Family for a while."

Zachary froze for a moment but came to his senses immediately. A gentle smile appeared on his face and he

nodded, saying, "You should do that. You're their biological daughter; there's nothing wrong with staying with them."

Nicole looked at Zachary's scarlet cheeks as well as the gentle expression on his face, her heart filled with traces of

thankfulness.
