BXBX NOVEL Chapter 450 Give Me Warmth
Andrew would not be at ease without knowing Alveena's condition. She looked very sick when they got out of the office. He wondered if the medicine took effect already, making Alveena feel better.
So after several minutes of contemplating, Andrew got up from the bed to go out and check on Alveena in her room.
Andrew was already in his pajamas and sleeping clothes. He just grabbed his coat and phone before stepping out of his suite. Alveena's room was just next to his. It only took him five steps to reach her room.
He was already standing outside her room. He rang the doorbell once but he got no response from Alveena.
'Is she asleep already?'
Andrew tried it one more time, ringing the doorbell twice. After a few seconds, it was the same result. No one responded from the inside.
Andrew just decided to go back to his room. Upon reaching his door, Andrew frowned and stopped on his track. He just picked up his phone and dialed her number.
Alveena's phone just continued ringing. After several seconds, Alveena finally answered his call.
"Alveena? How are you? Why are you not opening your door?" Andrew asked her immediately after the call got connected.
Silence.
There was a moment of silence from the other line. Alveena answered his call but she was not talking. Andrew's frown deepened when he didn't hear her voice.
Andrew was about to ask her again when Alveena's hoarse voice was heard. Her voice sounded very weak.
"A-Andrew… I-I… feel cold…" Alveena said with her trembling voice.
His concern for her intensified after hearing her voice.
"My head…hurts... I can't stand up to open the door. I feel dizzy."
Without saying a word, Andrew dashed toward the elevator. He panicked. Instead of entering his room to call the front desk, Andrew ran in the elevator to personally go to the hotel front desk.
Upon reaching the front desk, Andrew didn't waste any more time as he asked them for the extra room key of Alveena's VIP suite.
"Can you hurry up and open the room of my friend! It's Room 505. She's very sick right now and can't open the door by herself! I need to see her now!" Andrew said to the hotel staff with so much urgency.
The Hotel Staff took action right away and accompanied Andrew in opening Alveena's room. He was rushing inside her room.
He saw Alveena lying on her bed. Her whole body was covered by the blanket. She was trembling. Andrew approached her right away, tugging the blanket to see her face.
She was already pale and she didn't look well. Andrew pressed his hand on her forehead. She was burning hot.
"Alveena, I will bring you to the hospital," Andrew said. He was about to carry her when Alveena stopped him and shook her head.
"No hospital, please… I hate the smell in the hospital…" Alveena complained to him.
Andrew looked at her with disbelief. "But you went to the hospital to visit me."
"That was a different situation. Besides, back then, I wanted to see you and make sure that you were fine." She still tried to reason out although she already felt weak.
Andrew: "..."
Seeing the pleading look in her eyes, Andrew could only sigh deeply, yielding to her request. Then he turned to the Hotel Staff.
"Do we have an Emergency Doctor or nurse here?" He asked the staff.
"Yes, sir. We have standby doctors and nurses here in case of emergency." The staff responded.
"Can you bring them here to check on her?"
The staff nodded his head before leaving Andrew and Alveena. He went out to call the stationed Doctor for tonight.
Andrew fixed Alveena's position on the bed while waiting for the doctor to arrive. She was still trembling as she felt the chill.
It did not take long when the doctor arrived. She immediately checked Alveena. After a few minutes, the doctor was done examining her. She gave her medicine to take. She got the flu.
The doctor asked Andrew to monitor and watch over Alveena. The doctor advised him to bring her to the hospital if her fever would not go down.
After giving Andrew final instructions, the doctor left Alveena's room. He felt relieved when Alveena finally fell asleep.
He stayed with her, watching over her. He needed to make sure that her temperature would go down since Alveena didn't want to be admitted to the hospital.
"Sigh, did I give you so much work for you to get sick?" Andrew mumbled, feeling sorry for Alveena. He was sitting on the chair near her bed.
He was putting a towel soaked with cold water on Alveena's forehead. He was constantly checking her temperature from time to time.
Andrew massaged his temples. He had to admit that he got worried sick about her moments ago.
Though his body and mind were already tired and exhausted, Andrew was fighting the urge to sleep. He wanted to make sure that Alveena would feel better.
In the middle of the night, Alveena woke up, only to see Andrew in his sleepy state. He was yawning in his seat. He sat up straight when he noticed Alveena looking at him.
"Hey, why are you awake? You should sleep more. How are you feeling now?" Andrew leaned over, asking her as he pressed his hand on her forehead. Her temperature went down but she was still hot.
Instead of answering Andrew, Alveena told him to rest. "I could see that you are tired already. Why don't you go and sleep for a moment?" Alveena was also concerned about him.
Andrew shook his head. "Don't worry about me. I'm just fine. You should sleep to gain your energy. You will feel better tomorrow," Andrew was surprisingly very gentle towards her. Alveena felt grateful and touched.
She stretched her hand, reaching Andrew's hand. He gazed at her confusedly.
"What? Do you feel any discomfort?" Andrew asked her again worriedly.
Alveena shook her head and said, "Come, lay down beside me and take a rest."
Andrew was taken aback when he heard that. He was about to refuse her but Alveena pulled him with her remaining strength.
"Lie down. I'm still cold. I will feel better if you will give me warmth." Alveena said, not allowing Andrew to argue. She held his hand tightly with no plan to let go.
Andrew could only sigh helplessly before joining her in bed. Yes, Alveena succeeded again in making Andrew fulfill her request.
