Chapter 94
Bride of Mr.Billion
Bellaâs POV:
Hearing that my phone was in Kleinâs car, Joeyâs face was instantly filled with evil smiles. âIsnât this an opportunity for you?â âWhat are you talking about? Hurry up and pass me your phone.â I reached out to Joey.
Joey took out her phone from her bag, but she shook her wrist and did not give it to me. Instead, she asked, âAre you calling your boss?â âOf course Iâm calling him. My cell phone is with him. He canât get in touch with me!â I replied. âThen you need to be careful when you call him.â Joey stuffed the phone into my hand. âWhat do you mean?â I asked in confusion. âItâs almost 10 oâclock now. If you call him now, his wife or girlfriend might misunderstand you. At that time, you will be the third party!â Joey said with a smile.
Hearing this, I really hesitated. I could be sure that Klein didnât have a wife, but I really didnât know if he had a girlfriend.
But I was worried about whether or not my cell phone was with Klein. After all, the cell phone was too important to me. Without a cell phone, many jobs would be delayed. I thought about it for a moment and decided to call my own number. I was calling my own mobile phone. It might not cause any misunderstanding.
Ring⦠Ring⦠The ringtone rang for a long time, but no one answered. I was beginning to panic. Could it be that I didnât leave my phone in Kleinâs car? If dropped my phone outside, it would be terrible. I definitely wouldnât be able to find it. I dialed several times, and when I was about to give up, the phone was finally connected! âHello?â The voice from the other end was hoarse and weak. Hearing this voice, I could tell that it was Klein. âBoss, whatâs wrong?â
âI⦠have a feverâ¦â Kleinâs voice was very unpleasant to hear.
âDidnât you take medicine for fever?â I asked anxiously. I could tell that he must be very uncomfortable.
âThereâs none⦠at home,â he replied with difficulty. âAre you the only one at home?â I asked, still a little taken aback. âHmm.â He gave a long âhmmâ and said no more. Kleinâs voice sounded very terrible. Most likely, he was in a very bad state.
I happened to have a medicine for fever.
I was worried that something unexpected might happen to him, so I said, âSend me your house location.
Iâll send you the medicine right away!â
âNoâ¦no needâ¦â Klein, at the other end of the line, refused. âYouâll suffer from a fever like this. Hurry up and send me your address!â Klein couldnât even speak clearly. He had to take some medicine.
âAlrightâ¦â Perhaps because Klein was very uncomfortable, and he was also very eager for medicine. he quickly sent the location over. âAbout half an hour later, I will knock on the door. You must remember to open the door!â I said loudly and hung up the phone.
Then, I changed my clothes and shoes. âAre you really going to Kleinâs home?â Joey asked frantically.
âHe has a high fever now. There is no one at home and no medicine. Iâm worried that something bad will happen to him.â I said with a frown.
âBut itâs so late now, and itâs raining heavily outside. You donât have a car!â Joey looked at outside worriedly.
âJennie who works at the supermarket downstairs has a husband who is a taxi driver. Iâll ask him to drive me there.â I took the fever, cold, and stomach medicine stored at home and was about to go out.
âIâll go with you.â Joey stopped me as she reached for the clothes. âOkay, thank you, Joey.â
Joey went out with me and we waited for the car downstairs.
Joey received a phone call that there was a set of data error. She needed to check the important set of data now.
âDear, I canât accompany you. This job is very important. I worked overtime before because of this document. If something goes wrong, our department will be in big trouble tomorrow.â âI can understand.
Donât worry, Joey. Go and deal with your work. If I need help, Iâll call you.â âOkay! Call me if thereâs anything.â
Half an hour later.
By the time I reached the front gate of Kleinâs house, I was already a soaked. Because the wind and rain were too heavy, the umbrella wasnât of much use at all.
Dingdong⦠I kept ringing the doorbell. Finally, Klein helped me open the door. His entire person was in a terrible state. âYouâ¦are here?â After the door was opened, Klein leaned against the wall, his eyes closed. I quickly helped him to the bed and touched his head. As expected, it was very hot. I measured it with a thermometer, and it turned out to be 39.6 degrees.
He had to take some medicine for fever.
I brought him a glass of water and gave him a medicine for fever. After his body temperature dropped a little, I covered him with a quilt. If the temperature hasnât dropped in half an hour after taking the medicine, Iâll probably make an emergency call.
Fortunately, his body temperature dropped. After making sure that there was no accident, I sent a text message to Joey to tell her that I was safe. Joey said, âItâs good that youâre fine. But you canât come back now. Thereâs no taxi outside. And itâs a storm.â
âThis is really troublesome. If I sleep in the bossâs house, wonât it be bad?â
Joey, who usually liked to tease me, became much more serious at the moment. She said, âYou didnât do it on purpose, and your boss has already fallen asleep. It doesnât matter. If your clothes are wet, you have to find a way to dry them. Donât catch a cold.â âOkay.â After I replied to the text message, I began to look for a hair dryer. My clothes were so wet that I couldnât dry them with the hair dryer. Klein didnât have any womenâs clothes at home, and he was now completely asleep. Thus, I had no choice but to borrow his shirt for now. But of course, prior to this, I had specially inspected the items in Kleinâs room. If he had a girlfriend, I would definitely have thought of ways to get in touch with her. Otherwise, it would be bad to cause a misunderstanding. But when I looked around, I didnât see any female products at all, so I borrowed Kleinâs shirt. When he wakes up, I would tell him everything. After I changed my clothes, I put them in a dryer. When I returned to his room, I noticed that Kleinâs body temperature was continuing to decrease. I instantly felt much more at ease. In Kleinâs home, there was actually another bedroom and one room for the study. â But without the permission of the owner, it was not appropriate to sleep in the bedroom and the study. So I planned to sleep on the sofa in the living room for a night. I had to sleep on the sofa for one night. At three oâclock in the morning, I got up from the sofa and went into the room to touch Kleinâs forehead. After confirming that his fever had subsided, I went back to the sofa to sleep. The next day, when I woke up, I suddenly felt something moving by my side. Immediately, I opened my drowsy eyes, only to see a pair of familiar eyes staring at me, a man dressed in pajamas, squatting in front of the sofa.
