Chapter 176
As this idea appeared in his mind, Matthew could not help but recall that crazy night with a look of lust on his face.
That night had passed quite a long time ago. He thought that he could no longer remember it clearly. But for some reason, after he watched her every move these few days, the memories of that night actually became clearer bit by bit.
He thought that it had probably been too long since he had been close to a woman
He looked at Valerie with a deep gaze. Unexpectedly, the woman who was flirting with him a second ago had already fallen asleep on the bed and was sleeping soundly.
She slept right after flirting with him, but she could do it so easily.
Matthew was speechless for a moment. His expression was gloomy.
But then again, this was the first time a woman was sleeping soundly in front of him.
Not only was she not afraid of him at all, she did not even take him seriously.
Valerie slept surprisingly soundly. She thought that it would be very uncomfortable, but she did not wake up for the entire night. When she opened her eyes, it was already the next day
She yawned in a daze. Although she still felt a little sleepy, she no longer felt dizzy. However, her mouth was still a little dry.
She picked up the glass of water by the table and took a sip. To her surprise, the water in the glass was actually warm.
Then, she realized that Matthew was also in her room. He crossed his arms and leaned against the sofa with his eyes closed. There was a hint of fatigue under his eyes. Valerie was shocked. Could Matthew have made do with it for the entire night!
While she was still in shock, Matthew opened his eyes
He had not slept deeply, to begin with. The sound of her waking up wake him up. Seeing that she was sitting, he almost instinctively went forward to feel her forehead. It felt much better than yesterday. Then, he took her glass of water and filled it with warm water. At the same time, he tucked her in to prevent her from catching a cold again.
Valerie was caught off guard by his actions. She could only watch Matthew’s every move in surprise.
Then, she asked, “Mr. Grant, you didn’t take care of me all night, did you?
Manhew did not reply directly. Instead, he took her temperature first. At 98.24°F, her fever had basically subsided.
Looking at the number, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. “How do you feel”
He didn’t admit that he had been watching over her all night, but the truili was obvious. There were several fever patches on the coffee table beside the sofa that had been replaced after being used. She didn’t take any medicine and only used physical fever control, but the fever patch needed to be replaced every two hours, so he simply stayed up all night to change the fever patch for her.
In addition, in order to let her drink water whenever she woke up, he would bring her warm water regularly so that she would not have to drink cold water when she woke up.
Valerie was both souched and embarrassed,
She said, “I’m better already. Thank you, Mr. Grant”
It was rare for Matthew to have a hint of playfulness, He said faintly, “Since yesterday, you’ve already thanked me no less than ten times. Truly thanking mar is not just a verbal thing”
“You’re right.” Valerie was not used
to owing favors, let alone such a big favor. “Mr. Grant, if you need anything from me, just let me know. As long as it’s within my capabilities, I will definitely do my best!”
Matthew was just joking. He wanted to tease her and see her dazed and slow reaction like last night. However, Valerie had obviously recovered. Not only did her tone return to its usual calmness, but her expression also returned to its usual seriousness.
Matthew could not help but feel that it was a pity. He quite liked her cute appearance last night.
Not only had this woman regained her composure, but she had also lifted the blanket and was about to get her work clothes.
Matthew frowned. “What are you doing?”
Valerie answered matter–of–factly, “My fever has subsided. Of course, I’m going to work.”
