Six

Ann took Sharon back into the villa with a severe cold and fever. After spending the whole night outside the house with no roof or duvet to comfort her, she got infected with a cold and fever.

With slow steady stride, Ann helped Sharon to the guest room and gently place her on the bed to rest her head, and body.

"I will quickly go get you some drugs that will ease your pains." Ann said and Sharon just nod her head slightly while shivering.

Ann hurried out of the guestroom, she went to her room and picked out some drugs from her bag.

She dashed out and head to the kitchen, get a glass of water, and rush back to the guestroom.

She pushed further into the room and place the drugs and water down. "Let's help you sit up, so you can take your drugs." Ann said, and helped her up.

She peeled the drugs out and pass it to her. Sharon gulped down everything and handed Ann the glass of water, before laying back on the bed.

"Rest for a while, I will quickly get the house chores done and head back." Ann said, and stride out of the room.

It didn't take Sharon another five minutes before she closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

Last night was the worst type of night she had ever experienced. Sleeping out with neither a duvet nor sheet made her very uncomfortable, but she had to endure and pass the night outside.

Ann stride to the kitchen, dropped the glass of water, and head out of the villa to dispose the waste bag.

She returned to the kitchen and quickly cleaned up, before she strides to her boss room to inform him of Sharon's presence.

She quietly climbed the stairs and made her way up to his room. She stood in front of his door, exhaled and slightly knock on it.

John isn't the type that likes to be disturbed early in the morning, so she knew better than to knock hard on the door.

She waited for a while, but there wasn't any response from him, she was about knocking on the door again, when the door flew open revealing the disfigured John, dressed in his night wear.

"Good morning Boss, I'm sorry to disturb you this early, I came because it was urgent."

"It's okay, why are you here? Do you need something?" He asked, and closed his door behind.

She slightly jolted back and shook her head.

"No I don't need anything, Miss Sharon came back to the house and past the night outside, I saw her this morning on my way to dispose the waste bag."

John eyes widen, he didn't expect her to be back after seeing the way she feared him when he approached her. He clearly asked Ann to send her out, but why would she return and spent the night outside?

"Where is she now? Did you bring her back into the house?" He asked, a bit concern.

No one has ever defend him, talk more of passing a night outside because of him. He changed his mind about her, and decided to treat Sharon as his real wife.

"Yes, she's in the guest room, I gave her some drugs, she caught a severe cold and fever, after staying outside all night." Anna replied, her face marred with worry.

'Why stay out in the cold for a whole night, this is fascinating' John thought inwardly.

"Go ahead, I will be out within some minutes." Ann nod, turned on her heels and lead her way downstairs.

John closed the door behind and stride back to the documents he was reviewing before she interrupted.

He packed the documents and placed them in his bag, then stride to the washroom to freshen up.

After cleaning up, he changed into a t-shirt and pant before exiting his room, and made his way downstairs.

All guestroom were downstairs, so he quietly claimed down the stairs until he got to the room she was resting. He pushed the door open and came into view with a sleeping Sharon, with Ann seated on the couch beside her.

Ann diverted her gaze to the door and jerk up immediately she saw him.

He strode further into the room and halt close to Ann, his gaze rested on Sharon, who seems to be sleeping comfortably.

He retracted his gaze to Ann, and rested his hands in his pocket.

"How's the fever, any improvement regarding her health? Is she still having a temperature?"

"She's getting much better, she's no longer shivering, and her temperature is back to normal." Ann replied, clutching tightly to her clothes.

Without another word from him, he turned on his heels and left the room to the dining.

Ann had already set up breakfast for him, he sat down and had breakfast. Minutes later, after having breakfast, he strode back to the room to check up on Sharon.

Immediately he strides into the room, Ann was no longer in the room and Sharon was up already seated on the bed, she seems to be lost in her thoughts.

She heard the sound of footsteps and snap out her thoughts, her gaze landed on John, and she quickly buried her head down.

"Why did you have to come back when you're afraid of me?" John asked, and sat close to her.

Sharon was surprised by the tone of his voice, it sounded different. It's like that of a beast who could change any moment he desires.

She suddenly found the rope of her clothes interesting and start to play with it.

Sharon push back her fear and slightly lift her head up, yet still avoided his gaze.

"I'm being honest, at first I was scared of you, but I promise to work on it to overcome the fear." Sharon admitted with honesty.

John hands crawled into hers, and she lift her head to meet his gaze with a small smile on her face.

He thought her mouth was hard, so he slowly raised his hands, and made his way to her face. He deliberately touched her soft face and chest to see how hard her mouth was, and how she would react.

With a tight lipped smile on Sharon's face, she knew John is teasing her deliberately to see her reaction.

Sharon bites the bullet and called out his name.

"John GU, third son." Sharon said in a low tone that could still be heard, her both hands still entangled with his, playing with the thumb of her hands.

"What did you just call me?" John asked, even though he heard her tiny voice call him John GU.

Even though she said she was going to work and overcome her fear, he didn't expect it to be this early, she even called his name.

"I didn't say anything, I definitely wouldn't do it." She emphasized on not uttering a word and he just shook his head while he rub the surface of her hands.
