Waverly stomped her feet in anger and left unwillingly.



When there was no one left in the room, John held Kathleen’s hands as he did before.



An hour later, there were beads of sweat appearing on Kathleen’s forehead. Moreover, her body temperature was slowly cooling down, and her breathing was much smoother.



John retook her temperature.



37.5°C. Why was the effect of the medicine so slow?



John swept his gaze at Kathleen’s shirt, which was drenched in sweat, and his expression was cold.



Then, he reached out and removed Kathleen’s wet clothes.



Under the light, he once again saw the girl’s porcelain skin.



The hand he was holding the alcohol with trembled slightly.



He pursed his lips, followed the process he did before, and dipped the gauze in the alcohol, getting ready to wipe Kathleen’s body again.



Suddenly, Kathleen moved. It seemed that she had regained her consciousness.



John approached her and asked, “Kathleen, how do you feel?”



Kathleen opened her hazy eyes, and she saw the man in front of her was still wearing the shirt he wore when they returned. Furthermore, he was holding a gauze that was dipped in alcohol. Then only did Kathleen noticed that she was naked.



She felt her heart in her mouth, and she immediately pulled the blanket to cover herself. “Young Master… I feel much better.”



John put away the alcohol and gauze. Next, he touched her hands, and it seemed that she was not as burning hot as before.



Seeing that the girl was awake and her fever broke, John was finally relieved.



He peeped at Kathleen, and his obsidian eyes fell on her cherry lips.



As she had a fever, her lips appeared red and delicate.



At the thought of what he felt when he fed her the medicine… John felt numb all over.



Then, when he saw the glass of water on the table, he wondered why he had not fed her more water just now.



After that, he turned to the girl who was hiding under the sheet and watching him vigilantly.



John annoyedly grunted, “Since your fever is reducing, you must drink more water.”



His expression was slightly unnatural as he passed the glass of water to her.



In fact, he had not intended for Kathleen to drink more water, but he wanted to hide the urge to feed her again.



It was as if there was some kind of magic, luring him to have the urge to touch her lips over and over again.



Nonetheless, Kathleen had not noticed anything. She sat and took over the glass of water, drinking a few sips.



John stood and took a new set of pajamas from the wardrobe.



“Young Master, I can do it on my own!”



“You’re weak from the fever. Besides, it’s not like I’ve never changed your clothes for you before.”



Seeing his icy gaze, Kathleen dared not answer him, and she could only let John dress her.



Next, he immediately pulled Kathleen into his embrace. “Go to sleep.”



Kathleen felt slightly uncomfortable, and her face slowly reddened as she gritted her teeth. “Young Master…”



John looked at Kathleen and asked calmly, “Why are you embarrassed? Didn’t I do this when you had a fever before?”



Kathleen could not help and said, “But I’m already eighteen, and I’m going to be nineteen soon. There should be boundaries between the two sexes! Besides, if Ms. Millan finds out, she won’t be happy!”



John’s face darkened. “So what if you’re eighteen? Even if you’re a hundred years old, I raised you. I own you.”



Then, he lifted Kathleen’s chin, looking at her from above. “Don’t forget your purpose for being alive. You’re alive because you need to take care of my leg…Do you understand?”



Kathleen dared not argue with him. Thus, she could only shut her mouth.



As her body was just recovering, she felt exhausted, and she fell asleep in John’s embrace not long after closing her eyes.



John stared at her tiny face, and his gaze softened.



What a heartless fool. She was actually sleeping so soundly in his arms.



At this moment, he suddenly recalled the image of the man draping her with his clothes as they walked out of the university, and his face instantly turned gloomy.



Kathleen was his, and no one else could lay a finger on her!



The following morning.



Waverly woke up and washed up. When she was done, she walked out of her room and was ready to head to the dining hall for breakfast.



Then, she suddenly saw John walking out of Kathleen’s room.



Waverly was stupefied, and she stood there unmoved. Did John spend his night with Kathleen in her room?



At the thought of this possibility, her face turned livid.



John had not noticed Waverly standing behind him. After he got out of Kathleen’s room, he went to his room to wash up.



Waverly came back to her senses, and she hurriedly went into Kathleen’s room.



Kathleen finally felt better from her fever. Then, seeing Waverly in her room, she frowned. “What are you doing here?”



“Kathleen— Did you sleep with John last night?” Waverly pointed at Kathleen, and her body was shaking with anger. “You’re so shameless!”



“What does it have to do with you?”



“What do you mean by that? John is my cousin. How could you be so bold and seduce him? Moreover, you’re not only seducing John but also Jonah! You’re such a shameless b*tch!”



Kathleen did not have the mood to argue with Waverly, so she went downstairs, had her breakfast, and made her way to school.



As soon as she reached her university, Kathleen felt that something was up.



A few students were standing in groups, whispering to one another.



“Have you heard? Several girls were expelled from the university yesterday!”



“I heard it’s because they provoked a girl named Kathleen Yates, and that’s why they were expelled!”



“Seriously? It was nothing more but a prank between students. Was there a need to expel them? That’s so ruthless!”



When Kathleen heard the conversation, she instantly recalled what happened yesterday, and she furrowed her brows.



John must have expelled those girls.



As she was about to make her way to the lecture hall, Waverly suddenly ran toward her, roaring, “B*tch! My classmates were all expelled because of you! Are you satisfied now? Kathleen, you really are bad luck! Wherever you go, you’ll bring your curse along! How dare you shamelessly show your face on campus! You should just die!”



Kathleen’s face darkened, and she stared at Waverly coldly. “Waverly, I won’t retaliate unless I’m attacked. Hence, I’m warning you not to provoke me anymore. Otherwise, the consequences will be dire!”



Waverly snorted, “Are you trying to threaten me?”



Kathleen smiled. “If you don’t believe me, you can give it a try!”



Kathleen was a quiet girl, and she rarely smiled. However, when she suddenly showed such a smile, she looked so charming.



Nonetheless, those eyes were as cold as ice, sending chills down her spine.



Waverly could not help but shiver. Was that… a devil’s smile? Why was it so terrifying?



Not far away, Jonah walked over. When he saw Kathleen’s smile, he was captivated.



He stared at her, stupefied, and his heart was beating wildly. Finally, he walked over and asked,” Kathleen, are you feeling better from yesterday?”



Kathleen peeped at him, and her face fell. “I’m fine.”



After saying that, she turned around and left.



Jonah watched as she walked away, and when he remembered her smile just now, he smiled too.



That girl was really extraordinary…



Nancy sat in the classroom. When the bell rang, the lecturer took her books and went out of the room.



Then, Nancy stretched. “Great! The class finally ended!”



She looked at Kathleen and suggested, “The weather’s good today. Let’s go out for a breather!”



Kathleen nodded, and she stood, getting ready to head out.



Suddenly, there was a commotion at the classroom door, followed by the screams of a few girls. “Wow! It’s Jonah! Jonah’s here!”
